Gary's property worked out great for us. We finished 2 weeks of camping only for the rain to start when we hit Cairns. But no worries, because our kids were content to play in the pool and watch the fish in the ponds. We were looking for a relaxing few days and we found that in Gary's house. Plenty of space for us and a great courtyard. It was also conveniently located right at the beach, and nearby other beaches, shopping centers, towns and sights. The only thing we noticed is that some of the kitchen drawers smelled a bit musty, so we did a little extra cleaning of bowls and glasses before using them, but I think that just comes with life in the tropics. We had a great stay despite the rain.
