Welcome to Gilligan's Backpackers Hotel and Resort Cairns

Gilligan's offers a blend of traditional backpacker accommodation including deluxe 4 & 6 share dorms and luxurious doubles & twins.

Gilligan's is a purpose built backpackers resort located in the city centre of Cairns, Far North Queensland, the stepping off point to the Great Barrier Reef and Daintree Rainforest.

Gilligan's offers a blend of backpacker accommodation (with a few added comforts) plus 3.5 star hotel rooms.

As a Gilligan's guest you can laze by the pool whilst sipping a cocktail, sample local cuisine, shop, browse over local produce markets, catch up with friends over the internet, or dance the night away - all without leaving this holiday haven.

When it is time to explore further, the absolute central city location means you're just a few minutes walk to Cairns waterfront lagoon, shopping centres, galleries, restaurants and nightclubs.

Holidaying has never looked so good!
