Gilligan's Backpackers Hotel and Resort Cairns is the ultimate experience in backpacker's hotel accommodation and leisure in the heart of the Cairns Central Business District. From there it is only a short walk to the Esplanade, Lagoon, Reef Boat Terminal and Marina as well as nightclubs, restaurants and shopping malls.
Cairns makes for the perfect stepping off point to the Great Barrier Reef and Daintree Rainforest. Gilligan's own onsite tour desk can help guests with any inquiries and tour bookings. From the central location there is easy access to airport, train, interstate coach, local transport and tour buses.
Gilligan's Night Venues provide one of the most exciting events in the local area. Regular live bands and the latest sports and music vision show on a giant video screen in the open air bar area. The chic mezzanine Pure Bar is designed for the serious late-night reveler.
Gilligan's is home to the iconic Rusty's Markets, open from Friday to Sunday. Here you can purchase a vast array of exotic tropical fruit and vegetables, herbs and spices as well as plants, arts, crafts, gifts and souvenirs from local farmers and artists.
