Reviews of Bayview Heights, QLD
"Leafy Family-friendly Neighbourhood"
Welcome to Bayview Heights, a family-friendly suburb of Cairns located at the foot of the mountain. Nestled just ten minutes from the city centre and Cairns Esplanade and a short twenty minutes drive from the International and Domestic Airports. The suburb is perfectly positioned far enough away from the city centre that it’s residents can escape the hustle and bustle yet easy access to all amenities. Within Bayview Heights there are local cafes, sporting facilities, parklands, seasonal creeks and several walking tracks. Quick and easy access to major shopping and medical facilities together with private and public schools in the neighbouring suburbs of Earlville, Woree, White Rock and Mt Sheridan. Offering established homes on large blocks Bayview Heights has a low population density which is perfect for locals who enjoy their space and privacy. Interestingly many streets in the suburb are named after minerals, gemstones and birds. Bayview Heights is situated in the Yidinji traditional Aboriginal country. Fantastic neighbourhood in Cairns to call home!

"Beautiful Bayview"
Being a long term resident of Bayview Heights, it's not hard to come up with a long list of what keeps me here! We have a wonderful community, great walking tracks and some of the best schools Cairns has to offer. With the Southside Shopping Village nearly at full capacity the take out options are getting much better than they have ever been before. You can now even get a great cup of coffee from the local butcher!
