“Balinese design creates a distinctive atmosphere near the Esplanade and Cairns' center; I particularly appreciate the family-friendly layouts of the apartments. The Bay Leaf restaurant is notable, seemingly a draw for both hotel guests and locals alike, and the staff's helpfulness stood out in what I read.
