If you want to feel like you are visiting Amalfi... you need to check out this place! Spectacular views. Gail the hostess is completely lovely. It was the perfect retreat, really. So quiet (except for the ocean - just the thing you want to hear.) Secluded + picturesque!

We stayed here too briefly; just a one night stopover before an early morning flight from Cairns. Just one sunset (and moonrise!) and sunrise were not enough! The views are simply stunning and the room quite comfortable. We really just slept there. Gail had stocked our fridge with some fruit for breakfast, which we nibbled at before we took off.... More

Our time at Villa Gail was nothing short of amazing. Clifftop ocean views matched with a beautiful sea breeze...and Gail our host, is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. Thoroughly recommend to anyone wanting a truly relaxing experience away from the crowds.

The most amazing ocean views! We did not know but there is a room with a balcony also, although our views were spectacular, we will request that room for next time. Clean rooms and super friendly host (Gail). It is almost like you own the joint! Enough privacy with all the availability you need from the host. Only a 10-15... More

what a pleasant stay, coming off a year in Antarctica, it's hard to imagine a better place to relax and enjoy some tropical sun combined with stunning views and the sound of the ocean. Gail is a wonderful host and I hope I will make it back to that marvelous place in the near future.

To say A Villa Gail commands the most breathtaking view on Yorkey's Knob is a sheer understatement. The breakfasts, with a luscious and delicious variety of local fruits was the tastiest we've ever eaten at a B&B. Gail's continuous kindness, helpfulness, and good cheer added immeasurably to an already terrific stay. We recommend A Villa Gail to everyone who wants... More

We had the pleasure of staying at A Villa Gail from 15 – 22 September. It was our second visit. We just had to return to this beautiful terraced property. We stayed again in the spacious and well-equipped apartment. There are breathtaking, panoramic views of the ocean, the beach, Cairns, the mountains and beyond. The sitting areas are peaceful and...

We have just stayed at Villa Gail at Yorkeys Knob in Cairns. It was a family affair with husbands and teenage kids. There were the mod cons for the kids with internet and TV and a beautiful pool and for the adults a gorgeous place to sip wine, barbecue and enjoy the views! Plenty of privacy for all of us... More

Well after arriving at 11:00PM we found Gail out the front patiently waiting for us. We were then taken down to our room ( will we ever get there we thought) which was the spacious self contained unit down below. We found it to be very comfortable and not chintzy and plastic like so many place. It was just like... More

We stayed in the Deluxe Apartment for three nights recently and could not have asked for a better experience. Gail had the room ready for us when we arrived late, including breakfast in the fridge. We had plans for the first day but decided to hang around the pool and visit Yorkey's Knob instead. A Villa Gail is incredibly serene... More
