Under the circumstances with our stay being post cyclone Jasper, we were very pleased with accommodation being a safe, secure, well maintained in a beautiful location in Daintree. Our host, Greg, was knowledgeable, accommodating and served us substantial meals twice a day. We enjoyed listening to his various, adventurous life experiences.He took us for a walk on the property, where he is growing various types of tropical fruit which we were able to pick and eat. There is fresh water pool that was available to cool off and protect us from the elements with a covered roof and netting to keep out any unwanted critters. Everything on this property has been build incredibly solid! When we were in a pinch to get to the Daintree river, as we did not have a vehicle, he offered us a ride there. It is definitely best to have be independent with a vehicle at this location. Thank you for an excellent stay. It was one of our highlights visiting this area in Australia.

Nice bungalows in a green and nice garden. There is also a pool and a nice terrasse for breakfast. The owners are very friedly and helpful. They have also a café with very good food for lunch and dinner. It was the cleanest accomodation we had during our nine weeks stay in Australia.

After a not so straight forwards check in I was shown to my superior chalet. It was everything the website showed. I was extremely pleased. After 1.5hrs I was informed by the owner that he had checked me into the wrong room and had to move me into another room very similar to the one I was in. This was not the case. The room I was moved to was much smaller and had a single bed. I complained to Expedia who I turn spoke to the owner. As the chalets were all full so was the surrounding accommodations. Being August this did not surprise me. To cut a long story short, Expedia promised me a $100 refund (which I have never seen) and it was agreed that I would move the next day into one of the chalets. Unfortunately this chalet did not have a queen bed but 2 single beds. I did get a refund for the 1st night from the owner but the whole escaped put a dampener on the stay. Would I recommend this place? If it was under new management I would. The whole concept of the eco chalets is a great thing.

Disappointed underwhelming
It looks like you're driving into someone's back yard. The rooms are facing the main house. The aircon rattles the walls & keeps you awake (sounds like a generator is running beside the room). No coffee cups or glasses in the room. The owner was rude we booked for 2 nights & only stayed 1. On a positive note the room was neat & clean.

We had booked to stay here after reading the excellent reviews on Tripadvisor. Unfortunately the man we spoke to on arrival, presumably the owner, was unwelcoming and disagreeable. We were also disappointed by the location and facilities. We decided not to stay and continued to Cape Tribulation.

Not a good experience
We prepaid accommodation cost via Expedia, however on arrival were advised that we had to pay. We did on the assumption we would recieve a refund when the issue was sorted out. Since then the manager has denied payment was recieved (even though I can show the funds coming out of my account) and refuses to respond to me. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Myself and a friend recently spent three nights at Daintree Peaks ECO Stays. We were made very welcome by the very friendly hosts, Shannon and Greg. Shannon cooked and served us such delicious breakfasts each morning of our stay; breakfast being included in the very reasonable accommodation cost. Dinner menu was excellent and I highly recommend the pork cutlet meal, most delicious pork I have ever eaten. The new ECO friendly cottage style accommodation was very clean and comfortable; garden and grounds tidy and very well maintained, with picturesque Mountain View’s. And as a bonus there was a communal lounge / dining area where guests can relax and socialize. The property also has a lovely screened undercover pool available for guests to use. Don’t go past Daintree Peaks ECO Stays on your next visit to the Daintree - a great place to stay, or, if only in the Daintree for a day trip, a great place to visit for one of Shannon’s delicious meals.

Die Unterkunft besteht aus 4 Fertigbungalows und ist in fast neuem Zustand. Die Einrichtung wirkte aber sehr steril und nicht gemütlich. Es ist keine Küche vorhanden, der Grill durfte nicht benutzt werden - für Selbstversorger ist die Unterkunft eher ungeeignet. Das Frühstück wurde serviert, war zwar nicht reichlich aber in guter Qualität. Für eine Übernachtung war es o.k.
