Gilligan’s is a purpose built backpackers resort located in the city centre of magnificent Cairns, Far North Queensland, the stepping off point to the Great Barrier Reef and Daintree Rainforest.
Gilligan's resort is located in the Cairns city centre. Gilligan's is Cairns' newest and most up-market budget accommodation, offering both tradtional backpacker facilities (with added comforts) as well as private hotel style rooms.
Air conditioning, ensuites and king single size beds are standard in every dorm room, whether 4 or 6 share. For those who lap up the luxury, you can enjoy our private rooms that are complete with private bar fridge, television and futon lounge yet still carry a budget price tag.
On each level there are modern well appointed communal kitchens at one end and you can laze in comfort at the other end with a big screen and cable television.
