The Reef Hotel Casino is a gaming and accommodation complex in Cairns with 128 guest rooms, multiple dining options, gaming areas across different levels, and a rooftop pool. The property provides various event spaces and combines lodging with comprehensive leisure facilities.
Queensland approved a casino plan for Cairns in 1992, and the property opened its doors in 1996. This development reflected broader efforts to establish the city as a major tourism and commercial hub.
The venue shapes Cairns' nightlife with regular live performances by local and international artists filling the schedule multiple times each week. These shows have become a fixture of the city's entertainment scene, drawing both residents and visitors.
The property sits in a convenient location with direct access to the Reef Fleet Terminal for those booking boat tours. Multiple event spaces and good accessibility make it practical for both individual travelers and groups.
The rooftop houses a wildlife dome featuring Australian animals including koalas and saltwater crocodiles, offering guests an unusual chance to see local fauna up close. This unexpected attraction transforms the rooftop into something far more than just a viewpoint.
