So grateful for such a lovely getaway in the Daintree! It is such a gorgeous, tranquil place to stay, right in the heart of the rainforest. The location is perfect with Mossman Gorge, Crocodile experiences, Great Barrier Reef snorkelling, Emmagen Creek and more so close by. The food was exquisite and all the staff so kind and happy to help. Thank you for such a great holiday!

Such friendly and welcoming staff. The rooms are beautiful and simply stocked. The dinner we had on site was just delicious and they even packaged breakfast for us the night before seeing as we would be leaving early. Would 100% recommend if your looking for a nice relaxing getaway.

We LOVED our stay at Daintree Wilderness Lodge. The place is truly beautiful and far exceeded our expectations. Think boutique bungalow surrounded by rainforest, a wonderful place to base yourself for exploring the Daintree, chill and disconnect from the outside world. We ended up dining at the in house restaurant every night of our stay – food was hearty and delicious, and we loved just being able to stroll back to our room after dinner, often with a glass of wine and DVD in hand. Thanks Scott and team for a lovely stay.

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.

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

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!

Daintree Holiday
Amazing time, lovely people and amazing food. Would definitely come back and stay. Nothing was too hard to help accomodate. The owners were very welcoming and friendly. Easy access to all areas of the Daintree. Premises were beautifully kept.

I wish I had taken more photos. The Lodge is fantastic and made all the more incredible by the amazing hosts. The food, atmosphere and beverages were great. David even tweaked the dessert menu to suit us. The rooms are lovely – the basin in the bathroom is gorgeous! Cant wait to go back!

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.

Paradise in the rain!
Despite torrential rain we enjoyed our short stay. Incredible rainforest environment with private cabins nestled between towering vegetation. Great shower and comfy beds, gourmet meals. Friendly and efficient staff led by Scott who kept us updated on the status of the river and ferry which had us locked in. Highly recommended.
