Crystalbrook opens third Cairns property

Originally scheduled to open in April 2020, COVID-19 put paid to those plans and, now, Flynn, the third Crystalbrook Collection Hotel in Cairns, has finally opened its doors.

“Crystalbrook Collection is an integral part of the cultural landscape of Cairns, and we are thrilled to complete the trio in Far North Queensland with the opening of Flynn,” says Geoff York, CEO and Group Director of Crystalbrook Collection.

“With the hope that all Australians will be welcome in Queensland by Christmas, the opening of Flynn is part of our ongoing commitment to support and invest in the Australian tourism industry.”

Situated on the Cairns Esplanade Boardwalk, Flynn features 311 stylish rooms and suites, many with jaw-dropping views of the Coral Sea, two glass pools, an Eléme Day Spa and 24-hour gym.

The ground-level restaurant, Boardwalk Social, opened in January, proving an instant hit with locals and cementing the venue as the place to be in Cairns. The market-style food and beverage hub is home to live music, local ingredients and brews, with 40 different kinds of gin to sample.

Due to open in the coming months, the hotel’s signature restaurant, Flynn’s Italian, will bring some European charm to Cairns offering locally sourced heartfelt Italian food that celebrates local produce. Feeling thirsty? The extensive Italian wine list will not disappoint.

Also set to join Cairns’ flourishing food and beverage scene will be Flynn’s sophisticated Whiskey and Wine Bar, featuring an expansive selection from boutique Australian whiskey producers, local and imported wines, home-style delicacies, and a spread of modern Australian snacks.

Celebrate the long-awaited arrival of Flynn with the Flynn Live Large package*. Priced at AUD $380, this two-night stay includes a complimentary upgrade to a Harbour View Room, and a $75 food and drink credit to use at any Crystalbrook Collection venue in Cairns. Travel dates 10 November 2020-31 March 2021.
