Hi Andrew ...
It's not really tourist season up there at that time of year ... so there would be no hurry to book accomodation.
Wait until you are two weeks out, then get on www.wotif.com.au to book accomodation.
I can recommend the Cairns Queenslander as a nice comfortable hotel (2 pools), rooms about $86. It's about 2-3k distance to the bowl, but it is close to the Cock and Bull, which serve great meals.

G'day Wardy ...
No, I won't be going up ... the dates clash with the Broadwater Film Festival (me and a bunch of mates on a houseboat watching dirty movies, getting drunk, fishing and sledging.)
Might see you at the first twin tour event?? ... are you living back in Brisbane?

Stayed at Cairns Villa & Leisure Park when I bowled in the Cairns Open in 2003.
There is a great pool and the cabin rooms have great air conditioning and are set amongst large tall palm trees.
I would recommend it. I have already decided to bowl in the SA Cup this year but I would definately stay there again if I bowled in the Cairns Open again.
The bowl is about a five to ten minute walk away although I wouldn't be doing it in the heat or humidity of the mid afternoon.
If you go in to practice the day before you can leave your bag there in the tournament room over night.
If you miss the cut (which you won't of course) make use of the day by planning a day trip or something. Just remember you can't fly within 24 hours of scuba diving just in case you had this in mind. You can arrange to do almost anything from reception at the park.
For more accommodation info I recommend visiting your local travel agent and obtaining some brochures. This will also help in planning any non bowling activities you may wish to indulge in while you are there.
Enjoy the trip and bowl well.
