Traveling Day

Imagine your flight landed late and you’ve already missed the first day of your vacation. To add to the disappointment, when you enter the hotel for check-in you found a scenario like this:

Two reception counters, handling four queues of guests. Only two people at the frontdesk handling this crowd. People are waiting in the seating area beside the frontdesk. A hotel staff member is assisting them with their check-ins on a digital pad. And you are standing there, hoping you could just get a room without going through all this.

Now imagine, if this hotel had a self-check-in kiosk. You could use it to enter your booking details, verify your ID, and make the payment, and there — “this is your keycard”, and you are simply done with the check-in. Looks like a dream?

Well, let’s make that true!

The hospitality industry is now stepping up and installing hotel

Barefoot glamour, colonial charm, innovative dining, and blissful relaxation are all on the menu at Palm Cove, a tiny beachfront village only 30 minutes north of Cairns, known to visitors and locals alike as an awe-inspiring tropical paradise.

Whether it’s the namesake palm trees that run the length of the beach, the age-old Melaleuca paperbark trees that line Williams Esplanade, the natural wonders on Palm Cove’s doorstep such as the Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree Rainforest (part of the greater Wet Tropics Rainforest area – the oldest rainforest in the world), or the award-winning innovative restaurants like Nu Nu and Vivo – the village has a unique, low-key, tourist-friendly, upmarket vibe which sees it regularly included in lists of the top destinations in Australia.

Join us as we take a look at some of the best hotels in Palm Cove.
