Our Girls’ Getaway at Hilton Cairns – Sunshine, Champagne & So Many Laughs

Just got back from the most unforgettable girls’ trip to Cairns, and I can’t stop thinking about how perfect it was—especially our stay at the Hilton Cairns.

We booked three rooms for the six of us, and from the moment we arrived, it felt like the perfect little escape from real life. The hotel itself was stunning, right on the water with those dreamy views that make you stop and take it all in. Waking up to the sight of palm trees and the Coral Sea sparkling in the morning sun? Absolutely unreal.

The rooms were gorgeous—spacious, clean, and super comfy, with big windows that made the most of that beautiful Queensland light. Whether we were getting ready for a night out or winding down after a full day of exploring, it felt like our own little slice of paradise.

But what really made the stay so special was the staff. They were friendly, warm, and genuinely helpful the whole way through. They even organised a late check-out for us, which was a lifesaver after one too many celebratory champagnes the night before!

And speaking of celebrations—one of the girls had her birthday while we were there, and the team at Hilton went above and beyond. When we walked into the room, there was a beautiful birthday cake waiting for us and a bottle of chilled champagne, all arranged so thoughtfully. It made her day, and honestly, it made the rest of us feel pretty spoiled too. Little touches like that really do stick with you.

We spent our days soaking up the sun, doing a bit of sightseeing, and just enjoying each other’s company. It was the kind of trip that fills your cup in all the best ways—laughs, chats, naps, cocktails, and no schedules.

If you’re thinking about booking a stay at Hilton Cairns—do it. It was the perfect base for our tropical escape, and we couldn’t be more grateful for how well we were looked after.

A big thank you to the Hilton team for making our trip one to remember. We’re already talking about coming back next year!

Why Every Mum Needs a Girls’ Getaway

Just got back from the most amazing girls’ trip to Cairns, and wow—I didn’t realise how much I needed that break until I was in it.

We booked a lovely hotel right near the water, the kind where you wake up to palm trees and sunshine pouring through the curtains. We planned a few excursions— just enough to feel like we were doing something special. Think reef tours, beach strolls, cocktails by the pool… the good stuff.

Coming from soggy, cold Sydney, stepping into Cairns’ warm tropical weather felt like heaven. No jumpers, no rain, just that beautiful Far North Queensland sunshine that instantly lifts your mood. We were living in our swimmers and sundresses, and honestly, I didn’t miss the layers one bit.

But the best part? The company. There’s something so special about being with your girls—no pressure, no roles to play, just open chats and loads of laughs. We talked about everything and nothing, stayed up too late, danced like no one was watching, and just enjoyed being ourselves. It’s amazing how much lighter you feel when you’re surrounded by people who really get you.

And that’s why I’ll never stop saying how important these little escapes are. Life is busy, and as mums, partners, workers—we’re always doing something for someone else. But there’s real magic in stepping away for a bit and just being you.

If you’ve been thinking about planning a girls’ trip—do it. Don’t overthink it. You don’t need a massive budget or a long itinerary. Just pick a place, gather your favourite people, and go. The laughs, the chats, the memories—it’s all so worth it.

To my beautiful girls, thank you for being exactly what I needed. My heart feels full, my spirit feels light, and I already can’t wait for the next one. 💛🌴🍹
