The Space:
Nestled along Trinity Beach Esplanade, this one-of-a-kind coastal retreat blends innovation, history, and coastal charm for a memorable getaway. Built in the late 1970s using the pioneering Bini Shell system, the dome showcases an innovative construction method used for eco-friendly homes around the world.
The open-plan living area has been thoughtfully arranged to make the most of the dome’s creative shape, creating a comfortable place to unwind after a day by the water. Air conditioning and reliable Wi-Fi help ensure a relaxed stay, whether you're catching up on work, planning local adventures, or simply enjoying a quiet evening indoors. Large windows bring in natural light while maintaining a sense of privacy and comfort.
The compact kitchen provides everything needed for easy holiday dining, with practical cooking essentials for preparing meals at home. Step outside to the private courtyard, where a shaded outdoor dining setting for four invites alfresco meals in the tropical air. Nearby, the shared octagonal swimming pool sits amongst lush gardens, offering a peaceful place to cool off and unwind.
The bedroom features a comfortable queen bed dressed in crisp linen, creating a restful retreat at the end of each day. The bathroom is stocked with fresh towels and essential amenities for added convenience. A shared coin-operated laundry is located on-site, making it easy to take care of holiday washing ($2 coins required).
A window air conditioning unit and ceiling fan help keep the space comfortable throughout your stay. On-site garage parking and free street parking are available.
Guest Access:
During your stay, you and your group will have the entire dome to yourselves, along with shared access to the swimming pool and laundry facilities. Please make yourselves at home!
The Neighborhood:
Trinity Beach offers a relaxed coastal atmosphere with palm-lined shores, beachfront cafés, and casual dining all within easy walking distance. Spend your mornings strolling along the esplanade, swimming at the patrolled beach, or enjoying coffee by the water before settling into oceanfront dining at local favourites including L’Unico Trattoria Italiano, Trinity Beach Tavern, Tuk Tuk By The Sea, and Il Chiosco. Nearby parks and playgrounds add to the easygoing beachside feel, while scenic coastal drives, reef tours, and rainforest day trips make exploring Tropical North Queensland effortless. Cairns Airport is approximately a 21-minute drive away.

Summary: Unique accomodation right on the beach, very clean inside and out . Didn’t even know we had neighbours as everyone was so quiet. I really enjoyed the pool great temp. Communication with host was spot on. A large choice of food options within walking distance, very close to cairns. The only bad thing I could say is we didn’t stay long enough. I hope to return in the future.
