Default Any Ideas of where/and cheapest ideas to stay In cairns for a family of 6

Hi we are wondering the best ideas on where to stay in cairns as there are six of us, and most hotels wouldnt fit us all in one room and two rooms will cost a fortune for two weeks, we are on a tight budget too, its going to cost an arm and a leg to fly out as it is , but need to validate the visa, Do you recon a motor home might be a good idea, any one got any ideas.................Thankyou.

Check out the Big4 campsites... The one in Cairns' own website is Coconut... We stayed there for a week and it was very good... Kids will love it, got a huge pool, big bouncy thingy, tennis, mini golf, etc...

Hi there,

I would agree the big 4 is fab too. My parents stayed there last year and said it was an ideal place to stay,reasonable and a great place to stay with children. We are going there this year and there will also be 6 of us including our two kiddies.

Have a great time wherever you decide to stay!
