About this apartment rental

Tucked away close to nature yet conveniently located just minutes away from Cairns airport, CBD & northern beaches.

Enjoy the breathtaking views of the rainforest from your kitchen window while sipping Nespresso or relax in front of the large smart TV.

Perfect for large families or groups of up to 6, there are 3 bedrooms available, offering plenty of space to spread out.

Hillside Hideaway is the perfect base to explore your surroundings, with easy access to some of Cairns’ best hiking trails including the Yellow, Red, Blue & Green Arrows. Or hike across Mount Whitfield to the trendy suburb of Edge Hill for a coffee or yoga class.

ABOUT THE PROPERTY:

Situated beside the edge of the rainforest that is Mount Whitfield, 'Hillside Hideaway' offers a cool and private place to relax and kick back to escape the Cairns heat.

Conveniently located just 6 minutes away from the airport terminal, it also doubles as a quick getaway for those early morning flights.

Enjoy air conditioning and polished concrete floors throughout, with a vibrant and modern interior... In fact, you just can't help but feel a little bit brighter just by setting foot inside the front door!

Offering access to a Nespresso coffee machine, large smart TV, full-size refrigerator and freezer, Samsung top-loader washing machine, soft bamboo bed linen and even a vintage-style record player - we hope all our guests will feel like they've truly found their second home.

As hosts, we'll provide complimentary fruit as well as a small selection of tea, coffee pods and other goodies. Body wash, shampoo and conditioner are also provided free of charge.

The apartment is completely self-contained and located on the ground floor of a large Queenslander home. Located at the end of a cul-de-sac, Hillside Hideaway is a peaceful location close to nature, with an abundance of bird life and frogs nearby, and lush plants lining the windows.

**Please Note: The two floors are entirely separate but as the owners live upstairs, occasional footsteps may be heard. Feel free to draw on the owners for local knowledge by reaching out via phone / email.**

Staying in Aeroglen means you'll get to experience a small taste of the wild without compromising on your location or being too far away from the action.

Approximate driving times to various locations are listed below:

Airport = 6 minutes

Botanic Gardens = 5 minutes
Cairns esplanade = 10 minutes

This basement apartment was darling, just as pictured. It was very clean and comfortable and spacious. We loved the AC in each room, the clean and cozy linens, the large and well appointed kitchen and the fun decor. The hosts were kind and responsive. There is some noise that comes from staying below a family, but that was to be expected so it didn't bother us at all. We were able to walk to walking and hiking trails from the home. We would absolutely stay here again if we were ever in the area again!
