Top James Cook University Hotel Reviews
Trinity Collective
10/10 Excellent
"Really well designed, very clean, everything was easy, check-in, parking, location, just really well set up. We loved the amenities too, for people on the road for a while, a washing machine and dryer is incredibly handy, good TV and very comfy bed"
Blue Lagoon Resort
8/10 Good
"We stayed for two nights in August, we were there for a Great Barrier Reef tour, so didn’t spend much time in the hotel itself or using the amenities. We got an uber from the airport, there were taxis and Ubers available quite readily. Staff were beyond helpful and friendly on arrival, a real credit to the hotel. We arrive at around 10am and the room was ready and they gave us the key, they said they upgraded us, but I couldn’t tell what the difference was? The room size maybe? We were ground floor by the pool, and people could see in the doors from their loungers. You can also hire ‘beach towels’ ($5) but I would argue the size of them was questionable for that! The room was very clean and large but felt dated. It suited what we needed it for however, but if we were there longer I think that we would have been disappointed. Very close to the beach, a selection of restaurants and a corner shop for essentials, the staff told us how to get to the shops via bus, so we got some supplies. There is a tv in the room, plus some kitchen equipment which was helpful, we only used the fridge however. I did have to move the temperature of that to cold when we arrived, as someone had it running on its highest, which was close to warm, so check that when you arrive. Would we stay again - yes, it was value for money, but only if it were for a couple of days. The hotel is well located, the beach is beautiful and the grounds seemed well maintained."
Vue Apartments Trinity Beach
10/10 Excellent
"This unit was everything that you would expect - very comfortable, spacious and had everything we needed - just as we expected from such an expensive unit. The only thing that wasn’t great was the poor access to the beach front."
Trinity Waters
10/10 Excellent
"Great location for exploring the area. Glad we had a rental car. Gorgeous view from balcony. Great café options. Plenty of space to relax"
Coral Sands Resort
8/10 Good
"The complex is in a great location with easy access to the beach and local restaurants. Good access to highway for exploring the wider region. Ideal for families. Apartment was nice, spacious with modern appliances, comfortable lounge area and balcony, bathrooms were a little tired but had been recently decorated. Complex is well maintained with nice garden areas and pool, secure underground parking with easy access was good"
Bellevue At Trinity Beach
10/10 Excellent
"The 3 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment was clean, well appointed and well located. Very spacious unit with everything you would need and beautiful ocean views from the large deck."
Sea Change Beachfront Apartments
10/10 Excellent
"This location is always sold out for a reason. It is so welcoming and worth every penny. We absolutely love it here. And have stayed many times."
Marlin Cove Resort
8/10 Good
"The room was clean and tidy. The balcony needed a bit of a clean and the general area could do with a spruce up."
Trinity Beach Pacific
10/10 Excellent
"Easy to follow instructions. Lovely location. Convenient under cover parking. Very clean accommodation. The kitchen is well equipped. I really can’t fault my experience at all. Would definitely return."
