BED AND BREAKFASTS
The concept of a 'Bed and Breakfast' is not something new; before the 20th century, it was quite normal for country travellers to spend the night at a private house rather than an inn, and the custom persists in many parts of the world. But many Bed and Breakfast operators in Cairns and Tropical North Queensland have taken the humble B&B and guest house to a new level, with luxury accommodation, superb home prepared cuisine and of course good old-fashioned hospitality.
A great way to spend your vacations feeling you are still at home!

Love that bed & breakfast experience!


'Jungara' is an Aboriginal name for a black bean tree grown in the rainforest mountains surrounding this unique colonial style homestead.

'Peaceful, Private and Relaxing' is what Jungara's guests are saying... The tranquillity of 'Jungara' bed and breakfast lets you relax in your affordable spacious accommodation, to enjoy your special Australian holiday in Cairns. Jungara rests on an elevated 8000 square meter (2 acre) property, surrounded by lush tropical rainforest mountains, situated twelve kilometres from Cairns City and a short distance to the bus stop, local shop, shopping centre, hotel and restaurants, with leisurely drives to the beaches and tablelands.

Local knowledge of the area from your hosts will help you plan your touring of North Queensland. Kim and Marilyn very much look forward to welcoming you soon.

While staying in this large, modern self-contained unit, you can maybe have breakfast around the cool salt-water pool. Perhaps a wine while watching the wallabies and native birds feed each evening, an amazing experience. Or a tropical barbecue right at your front door, what ever you decide this is a quiet retreat just for that occasion.
