Floriana, Cairns, Heritage-listed residence in Cairns, Australia

Floriana is a two-story residence in Cairns built during the 1930s with features designed to suit Queensland's tropical climate. The building combines windows and verandas that shield against heat and rain with structural elements that recall Mediterranean building styles.

The house was built in 1939 and served as a residence for Maltese immigrants who were active in northern Queensland. These residents played a role in the economic development of the region during the early 1900s.

The building shows how Mediterranean building traditions mixed with Australian construction methods in this Cairns residence. The architecture reflects the influence that immigrants from the Mediterranean region brought to local building practices.

Floriana stands at 183–185 The Esplanade in Cairns North, on one of the city's premier streets overlooking Trinity Inlet. The two-storey house is now run as Floriana Guesthouse, so visitors see it by staying there rather than on scheduled tours. Its upper floor originally held five bedrooms, a sitting room, dining room and kitchen, with a bathroom on each level.

The ground floor was built as a large ballroom, converted in the late 1940s into two flats and an entrance foyer. Paul Zammit, a Maltese migrant who arrived in 1912, had the house designed by Edwin Roy Orchard; it was completed in 1939 and listed on the Queensland Heritage Register on 30 April 2010.
