Cape Tribulation

"Good location to visit surrounding areas. We stayed in a deluxe cabin and a standard cabin for 2 nights. Comfortable room sizes. Pool could use couple more chairs or loungers for guests to use. Landscaping opportunities around the property to alleviate less mud build-up might want to be considered. Easy check-in, check out. Suggest pack food, or have a set of wheels to get to the few available restaurants."

12. Mantra On The Inlet

Port Douglas

"We stayed in Mantra for a week and loved it. A large well decorated apartment with views over the inlet, so close to shops and restaurants, and great facilities for travellers on the go. Equipped kitchen and washing machine were a welcome surprise. It was very peaceful given the central location, and we received a warm welcome on arrival. Unit had a large bed, double sofa bed, kitchen, dining table, large balcony, jacuzzi bath and shower. Parking was provided free in the underground car park....

Top Upper Daintree Hotel Reviews

Silky Oaks Lodge, Beckons

10/10 Excellent

"Food was excellent. Staff were friendly and attentive. They were always anticipating guests’ needs. Spa was also fantastic and great service."

Daintree Wilderness Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"I recently stayed at the Daintree Wilderness Lodge and have to say that it quickly became one of my favorite locations while on a two week journey though Australia. Not only are you immersed in the middle of the rainforest, but you have some of the best staff around with some great recommendations. I look forward to returning to the lodge again, hopefully soon!"

Coco Beach Villa - Tropical Beachfront Haven

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at Coco Beach Villa in Newell Beach. The host was responsive and easy to reach throughout our trip. The location is a great jumping-off point for day trips to the Daintree, Cape Tribulation, Mossman Gorge, and the Great Barrier Reef, while still feeling peaceful and away from it all. The beach is just meters from the house and beautiful to walk along, though no swimming given the possibility of crocodiles in the area. Enjoyed the pool and BBQ, and the beds and showers are very comfortable. Would happily stay again!"

Heritage Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed 3 nights in a twin room with king bed. Spacious, clean room with clean bathroom and good shower. Fantastic deck with rainforest views and a procession of wildlife. Room has a small fridge and tea-coffee making facilities but not much else for self-catering. On-site bar and restaurant available for breakfast (continental included), lunch and dinner. Meals were very good quality and quantity, continental breakfast was fruit, cereals and toast. Location is ideal for exploring the Daintree for a couple of days without having to use the ferry every day. Several rainforest walks available directly from the lodge with safe swimming holes in the nearby creek. No other restaurants or services within walking distance, there is a small store about 10 min drive away."

Daintree Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Great place"

Cape Tribulation Beach House

10/10 Excellent

"Cape Trib beach house gives you the opportunity to have a secluded bit of rainforest and beach away from the busier parts of the Daintree. The restaurant is good, portions are large. You can sit on an idyllic beach with just a couple of others hearing and seeing the rainforest animals as waves lap upon the beach. We saw Cassowary at the property twice in our 3 day stay. You can’t go in the water, but that is true of all FNQ. This is not a luxury property but maybe a more authentic feel, the rooms have the basic necessities and are clean and comfortable. The property is well located for Daintree activities, we did both the horse riding and ziplining, both of which were excellent and can be organised by the staff."

Mai Tai Resort

8/10 Good

"A Indonesian-style retreat about a 15 minute drive from Port Douglas with beautiful rainforest and coastal views from the communal dining room/terrace and pool (both areas are small but lovely to hang out at). We both preferred to stay out of PD and visit it rather than the other way around! Andre is a fantastic host, always on hand to help or provide advice on local activities and dining options (limited locally but there is a great Thai in Mossman at which you can dine in or takeaway and eat on the terrace at this property - Andre will provide plates and cutlery). Large bed with a beautiful canopy and a delicious fresh-fruit, yoghurt, and croissant/toast breakfast each morning. The steep drive way may surprise you when you first arrive but continue up for the fantastic views! Mossman Gorge, PD's crocodile viewing bridge and the Cape Tribulation drive are all must dos from Mai Tai."

The Newport on Macrossan - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent central stay. Quiet and adults only with great pool."

Noah Creek Eco Huts

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful surroundings, great accomodation, comfortable and way above expectation! The outdoor shower was a total highlight! Would recommend to all!"
