Serendipity is the perfect tropical retreat for your Far North Queensland getaway. While we may not offer a brand-new building with sleek lines, what we do provide is an authentic experience immersed in the beauty of the tropics—something truly unforgettable.
The cottage has a rustic, welcoming charm, offering plenty of space for a family of six to relax and connect. Surrounded by lush tropical gardens, the property features a stunning pool area that feels like a natural oasis tucked into the rainforest. It’s a tranquil escape, yet conveniently located just a ten-minute stroll from the beach, local eateries, and cozy cafes—a unique and enriching experience you won’t want to miss.
The cottage itself is thoughtfully designed with three comfortable bedrooms upstairs, providing a peaceful retreat after a day of exploring. Downstairs, you’ll find a spacious open-plan kitchen, lounge, and bathroom, all with a relaxed and homely feel. The garden is a true highlight, brimming with vibrant tropical plants, while the swimming pool is beautifully nestled into the landscape, offering a serene spot to unwind and soak up the atmosphere.
Holloways Beach, where Serendipity is located, is a relaxed seaside village that exudes year-round holiday vibes. Just 15 minutes north of Cairns and 20 minutes south of Palm Cove, it’s the perfect base to explore Far North Queensland. The village has a selection of charming cafes and restaurants, all just a short walk from the cottage.
For recommendations, we love Strait on the Beach for its laid-back vibe, Two Blocks Café for excellent coffee, and Holloways Pizza and Pasta for a family-friendly dinner option. The area also offers a sun-kissed beach with foreshore parks, as well as walking and cycling trails where you can enjoy the scenery at your own pace. Time your visit for the second Sunday of the month, and you’ll get to experience the Holloways Beach Market, a lively local event.
Adventure seekers will also find plenty to do in this region. The Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree Rainforest are must-visit destinations, perfect for day trips filled with incredible natural wonders. There’s no shortage of water-based activities, from scuba diving and snorkeling to kayaking, sailing, jet skiing, stand-up paddleboarding, and deep-sea fishing. For those who prefer staying on land, you can explore golfing, bungee jumping, hiking trails, animal encounters, or nearby destinations like Port Douglas, Cairns, or the charming mountain village of Kuranda, surrounded by tropical rainforest.
For your convenience, we also offer access to Cozie Travel, our in-house travel agency. With years of local expertise, we’re here to help you book unforgettable tours and assist with car rentals. Whether you’re seeking advice on excursions or need help organizing your itinerary, we’re more than happy to assist. Your comfort and enjoyment are our priority, so don’t hesitate to reach out to us for anything you need. Serendipity offers more than just a stay—it’s your gateway to a memorable tropical adventure.

Guest access
Access is through the right-hand front gate, following the fence line to the back of the property. The self-contained suite is located behind and adjacent to the swimming pool.
While the unit could be wheelchair accessible, please note there is one step to the pool deck, and you need to pass through two pool gates to reach the front veranda and door.
Other things to note:
The property owners (three people) live onsite. They won’t use the pool when you’re home, as it is around the corner but adjacent to your deck. However, they might take a dip if you’re out. There's an outdoor shower, toilet, and bathtub that guests are welcome to share with the homeowners.
Please note, this is a large lot within a suburb, so you may hear typical neighborhood sounds like people using their pools, mowing lawns, and occasional dogs barking. Overall, it’s mostly peaceful with occasional neighbor noises.
Not suitable for children or babies.
