My partner and I stayed here as a wedding gift from friends. We absolutely loved it! The shower was such a cool feature, the room was beautiful and the staff super friendly. The food was also delicious, they even made me a special vegetarian meal so I didn’t have to eat the same thing twice 🙂 Best place we stayed in the Daintree by far and would definitely recommend.

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.

I loved our stay. This place is roughly in the middle of everything too. The staff are amazing and were completely accommodating. I was impressed by the rooms too. The pictures they have online just don’t show enough justice. We were able to wake up to the sound of birds and seen a few right out our door. Few frogs graced us with their presence too. I highly recommend this place over any North of the River crossing (23 dollars rt). I think there are a total of 8 cabins so you will not be around a bunch of noise/people either. Complete relaxation. Do the river tour with “Mic” he knows his stuff!

Wonderful rainforest retreat
This place is amazing. We woke up to the sound of the rainforest and showered with a window looking onto the rainforest. The food was fantastic, both for breakfast and dinner. You order your meals ahead and BYOB. Our cabin was really comfortable, we only needed the aircon occasionally as the fan was great. We sat outside the cabin early with coffee listening to the forest wake up. We used the cold jacuzzi to cool down after a long day sightseeing. The host gave us great recommendations for places to visit. Highly recommended

Cosy well styled cabin stunning views from every window – especially the shower!
The comfortable bed with quality linen made for a great night’s sleep amongst the sounds of the rainforest.

Daintree is an area surrounded by flora and fauna. There is little to no telco reception which makes the place a peaceful oasis. Our lodge was newly renovated and our hosts were delightful. The property is surrounded by rain forest and local native Australian animals. Meals are within a beautiful setting with farm to table produce and a good selection of wines. We had a wonderful and peaceful two nights and highly recommend the getaway.

Beautiful location. Unique little cabins with part glass roof situated well amongst the greenery. When it rains everything comes alive. The owner the next morning cooked us a beautiful breaky and mapped out everywhere worth exploring. This was my favourite accommodation of the entire trip. Bring food, there’s no shops around but you can order dinner at the hotel if you tell them in advance.

Unique and magical Luxury immersion in the heart of the Daintree Rainforest
Unique and magical Luxury immersion in the heart of the Daintree Rainforest.
The Daintree Wilderness Lodge is situated in the middle of thick palm fern rainforest, with elevated boardwalks connecting you from the parking area to reception and your cabin. There is no doubt about it – this accommodation is unique and magical. The restaurant is delicious too. So glad we stayed on this side of the car ferry – what a unique place in the world let alone Australia, and the Daintree Wilderness Lodge is a great place to base yourself. On our last morning I woke to a cassowary right outside our cabin – thrilling, and I was rather relieved to have the window between us and the causeway!

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.

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.
