What Our Guest Say

A Most Memorable Experience

We had a wonderful time here, staying 4 nights which is just about right. The place is so peaceful and you are genuinely immersed in the forest. We particularly enjoyed the cold spa pool which we sat in at the end of each day, enjoying a local beer. Veronica and the staff were great and gave us lots of information on the best places to visit. The evening meals were fabulous and they had a good selection of wine and beers. It was particularly nice being able to dine outside each evening. Highly recommended.

Loved it!!

Loved everything about the Lodge! Warm welcome, the cabins are lovely and located right in the forest, secluded from one another for privacy. We had a gorgeous shower with view on the trees and were also positively impressed by the restaurant. Our barramundi and Nasi Goreng were delicious, as was the breakfast. We were not lucky with the cassowaries, but I’d still advice to take the short walk around the lodge.

Great immersion in the Daintree

A really great place to escape north of the Daintree river. We are big nature lovers and the Daintree wilderness lodge was an awesome place to immerse and surround ourselves in such an amazing environment.

The cabins are all accessed by a board walk and are designed to connect you with the natural world around you – both in terms of sights and sounds.

There is also a really nice family run vibe. Most notably, when I became quite sick (unrelated to the actual stay!), the team didn’t hesitate to go the extra mile in supporting me to get the help I needed.

We had a terrific stay at the Daintree Wilderness Lode! If you are looking for comfortable accommodation that makes you feel completely immersed into the rainforest then this is it. Awesome food, lovely staff and we even saw a cassowary in the car park. Highly recommend for those that want to explore the daintree, love the outdoors and want to disconnect for a night or two.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! The location is beautiful and secluded, like no other place I’ve been before. I think I enjoyed it more and more each day as I got used to the Daintree spirit and could really appreciate the magic and the surroundings.
The rooms are so fitting to the Daintree; rustic, wooden, cosy and welcoming. They have aircon, ceiling fan, fly screens on the windows, tv, mini fridge, kettle etc.
Bathroom is beautiful with a window looking out over the forest from the gorgeous shower.
Breakfast order is taken the day before and is brought out as soon as you arrive, beautiful fruit platter to start, and then very generous portions for main. You can book for dinner as well which is useful as there aren’t a lot of choices in the area, food was great.
Last but certainly not least, we fell in love with the managers and have to give a special thank you to Margaret as we had a lot of laughs with her and looked forward to seeing her each morning at breakfast. Nothing was a problem, even when we locked ourselves out one night haha. Margaret went out of her way to tell us about hidden gems we should see and you could tell genuinely loves sharing this knowledge and ensuring you have a great experience during your time in the Daintree.
If you want a truly magical nature/rainforest experience in a beautiful, secluded part of the world, I recommend this place. If you want a resort with lots of amenities and room service etc, this may not be the right choice for you, but you would miss out on all that it does offer ❤

Unique , off the grid holiday

Overall a unique experience. Daisy, the manager there, was very accommodating and friendly. We were amazed how she managed to look after the reception , check-ins and the restaurant. There is wifi in the lobby but not in the rooms. Good for a digital detox and focus on the beautiful surrounding that daintree had to offer. Breakfast was provided so I definitely think it was worth the money . Food was good at the cycad restaurant 🙂

Had a truly memorable experience staying at this accommodation. Me and my partner felt very warmly welcomed by both Scott and Daisy. The location is the Daintree rainforest felt so special, close to beautiful walks and beaches to explore. The breakfast was lovely and the dinners were delicious modern Australian. The cabins are so beautiful and comfortable. A special Australian experience all around. After covid lockdowns in Melbourne this holiday was long anticipated and expectations were still exceeded. Thank you to Scott and Daisy.

A Hidden Gem! Not to be missed!

Arriving down the narrow gravel road, we were not sure what to expect, but the Lodge turned out to be marvellous! The well spaced cabins are accessed by board walk through the rainforest. Our cabin was so remote the outer shower wall was glass! (One way glass we suspect). The cabins are clean, spacious and very comfortable. With no mobile coverage or TV access it is an ideal place to chill out and relax, (they do have a wide range of DVD’s you can borrow if you want ). The dining area is small and intimate but the meals are superbly prepared and presented. We even managed to see the elusive male and juvenile cassowary on our last day, amazingly lucky.

The stay here was absolutely incredible. To be surrounded by the rainforest every morning and night was an incredible experience. Breakfast included was great so I didn’t need to worry, there are awesome choices for dinner also. They have air con and a fan (although wet season I found it was still very very hot because of humidity!) The family who own the resort are so kind and accommodating it was such a world class experience and I have very high standards! Thank you so much to the team at the wilderness lodge for the unforgettable stay. Beautiful escape, 5 stars and highly recommend.

Five stars experience in World Heritage Daintree Rainforest

We spent three days and two night in the Daintree Rainforest. We have never had that opportunity so we didn’t know what to expect. We have researched and by word of mouth elected to stay two nights at the Daintree Wilderness Lodge. The Lodge is located between Daintree River Ferry and Daintree Rainforest. V easy accessible by car. We had a lovely time at the Lodge. Fantastic breakfast (included), Nature Walk (on the premise for an hour to a beautiful creek), excellent dinner every night at the Lodge. The cabin we stayed in blended into the Rainforest surrounding with sky roof, glass shower (we can see cassowaries walking past and they can see us). Sleeping in the cabin gives us experience first hand of living under the Rainforest canopy. We came in Oct and there is almost no signs of mosquito. The hosts and wait staff are all v friendly, helpful and food served is immaculate. All credit to the Daintree Wilderness Lodge Team. We will come again.

Delightful luxury in the rainforest!

Beautiful boutique accommodations in the world’s oldest rainforest. Don’t come to the Daintree if you are expecting the Ritz.This place is lovely, charming, and delightful!Wonderful dinners, helpful and friendly staff, with modern, clean, and ‘California Big Sur’ styled cabins offer wonderful rustic luxury deep in this ancient rainforest. Set amongst towering and majestic trees and ferns, the property’s elevated walkways immerse guests in the magical wonderland of the Daintree.

Perfect rustic luxury!

Sleep in the rainforest

What a beautiful little piece of paradise! Cabins are all separate and private with lovely views of the rainforest. Comfortable bed, nice bathroom and lovely handsoap etc. There’s a nice little walk from the car park too. It was a privilege to stay here. Breakfast was great and had dinner at Heritage Lodge , 10 minutes away, which was beautiful too, as they were closed for dinner the night we stayed. Staff were all lovely.
