ABOUT MAD MONKEY WATERFRONT
TOP LOCATION – CHILLED VIBES – COMMUNITY
You simply can't beat our location – we're directly on the vibrant Cairns Esplanade, with the stunning Cairns Lagoon just across the street! Pop down for a refreshing dip or spend the afternoon sunbathing anytime you fancy. We're also just a stone's throw away from the bustling Night Markets, perfect for grabbing a bite or a unique souvenir.
Welcome to Mad Monkey Waterfront, where unbeatable location meets a true "home away from home" vibe in the heart of Cairns! As a proud part of the Mad Monkey Backpackers Group, our smaller, intimate property makes it incredibly easy to meet people, build lasting friendships, and truly become part of our extended Mad Monkey Family as you explore the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef.
Our cozy common room is the heart of our social scene, perfect for unwinding after a day out: challenge new friends to board games, join a Nintendo Switch tournament, or settle in for a film night on Netflix. Our fully equipped modern kitchen is always ready for you to cook up a meal, truly making you feel at home.
You'll enjoy a comfortable stay in our spacious and clean rooms, all featuring air-conditioning to keep you cool in the tropical climate. Choose from Mixed Dorms Ensuite, Female Dorms Ensuite, or Private Double Rooms. All our dorms come with a private en-suite bathroom, high-quality mattresses, pillows, and linen. Plus, every bunk bed is equipped with a personal USB port and power socket to keep your devices charged. Private rooms include personal towels; dorm guests can easily hire one from reception if needed. Stay connected with ultra-fast Free Wi-Fi throughout the property, ensuring you won't miss a beat.
