    We liked it all.

    The rainforest was breathtakingly beautiful. We were lucky to see a juvenile and adult Cassowary. We enjoyed walks along several beaches, Cow Bay, ,Cape Tribulation. Alexandra lookout. Cape Tribulation boardwalk.Daintree Discovery Centre was amazing.

    Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed into this rainforest paradise retreat. The Lodge itself is nestled amongst the Daintree rainforest in what we would describe as breathtakingly beautiful. The newly refurbished restaurant, bar and surrounding deck with spa is at the heart of it all. A stroll along the boardwalk leads you to your private villa, the room is very well presented with the bathroom being the showstopper. A beautiful tiled bathroom with the shower giving you an amazing view of the rainforest.

    Wonderful location- right in the rain forest- very secluded. Great food . Impeccable service. Lots of bird life and even a close up with a cassowary.

    Required fresh towels / floor towels each day. Supply a mop to mop floor.- - shower drainage

    Breakfast was excellent, Choice was adequate. Meal times were limited - could have extended a bit later breakfast and dinner. Hospitality was great. Welcoming and accommodating staff in terms of using own grazing board / alcohol products given restricted local availability and alternative restaurant / pub facilities.

    a lot of humidity in the rooms, they looks a bit old… for the price I was expecting something better, cleaner…. same for the food. good products but way too much salad on side.

    the location is really nice, the bedding’s are really comfortable, the atmosphere of the restaurant at night is really cute.

    Not the lodge's fault but we do like our wifi these days and its basically non-existent in the Daintree. I have been to remote places all over the world where wifi has worked perfectly well. You'd think Australia could manage it in one of our greatest tourist attractions.

    The remoteness. Living in the forest. The restaurant was surprisingly good. The staff friendly.
