Stay at the Silky Oaks Lodge was truly a dream come true. The staff is amazing and made us feel so welcomed and special from the moment we arrived. Our room was perfect - very clean and the mini bar was stocked with everything you could need. Our view was in the middle of the rainforest with river views and total privacy. We enjoyed time on the patio together and the bathtub was heavenly. Every meal was delicious. Such a dream!!! ##### William Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Constantin Jul 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is a magical place nestled near the entrance to the Daintree Forest. My family hiked the nicely maintained and well-documented trails next to the Mossman river, swam in it, also enjoyed the pool that the hotel maintains. The wine and cocktail tastings every evenings are a great way to wind down the day, the meals were simply sumptuous - breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We had so much good food! The guest houses the property maintains are also lovely, with sleek modern bathrooms, ample space, and short walks back to reception or the mossmann river. This is a beatiful spot to rest and relax in - staff were consistently fantastic, lovely, and friendly. They take very good care of the place and it shows. Lastly, while the property maintains a free guest laundry, I suggest you use the service instead. The guest use clothes dryers on the property are not really performant. ![A waterfall along the Mossmann.

It was like an enchanted forest with great food (included) and drink. Very relaxing and just the thing for the last 4 days of a long and busy trip. We just enjoyed our surroundings and didn’t even feel the need to venture outside the resort. Our adult children loved it too. Highly recommend. ##### Carol Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Arley Mar 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We recently spent 3 nights at Silky Oaks Lodge in early February 2024\. We couldn't have asked for a better experience! The resort itself was gorgeous! We loved our bungalow and the view of the Mossman River. The staff was over the top friendly and accommodating. We arranged some day trips through the front desk, ABC Snorkeling to the Great Barrier Reef and Walk About Cultural Tours to explore the beach and the Mossman River Gorge. Both experiences were life altering. I wish we had made time to go to the spa - we received a personal tour before we left. We'll definitely do that next time. We made wonderful friends with the staff and cannot wait to return. Thank you for taking such great care of us! ##### Arley Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Helen Aug 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities One of the best places I have stayed in.

Stayed here for two nights, and would have loved a third - it goes too quick. As we arrived at the hotel, we were faced with a gate to the Lodge. We buzzed, and by the time we'd parked a porter and receptionist were coming to greet us at the car. Our luggage was taken, and our incredible time here started. Where to start... the room was lovely, with a hammock on the front balcony. A bath was on the back, facing the lush greenery. A fridge stocked with wine, cheese - and cupboard stocked with crisps, crackers, cookies and more. Everything you could want to enjoy your time in the room, and restocked each day. The reception is in a large open building, that continues through to the restaurant. The restaurant looks over the river, which you can hike along if there hasn't been too much rain. The height of the ceilings give a large open, airy feeling - and helps to give a feeling of calm and relaxation. The pool was a nice escape, with drinks offered from the bar. Unfortunately no pool service, but the bar wasn't too far away. They were happy to bring it down to the pool. The river itself was stunning, and is quite safe to swim in (we were told) due to the colder temperature, the constant flow of water, as well as the rocks that are on either end of the river. Kayaks and other swimming gear is provided on the riverbank. Highly recommend the Rapids trail. You wont be disappointed. A beautiful stay, would recommend. ##### Daniel Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julia Apr 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Besonderes Hideaway mitten im Regenwald.

Whole property was exactly as pictured. Everything was immaculately cared for and pristinely clean. Very relaxing, peaceful but also opulent vibe. Doesn’t seem like a spot that would interest children, definitely more couples or solo retreat-appropriate. Our treehouse was fantastic. Spacious, clean, temperature controlled, beautiful bathroom and peaceful interior. Bit unusual not to have TVs but we both have streaming services on our iPads and the wifi was fine so no big deal. Very weak bathroom lighting and no alternative well-lit area elsewhere in the room so I couldn’t see a thing when putting on makeup but that’s pretty common in hotels. Our favourite part was the constructed rock pool. We really enjoyed swimming in there, beautiful temperature, very serene - and being a quiet lodge with limited guests, we had the pool to ourselves. My only gripe was that the arrival “chat” and commune feel felt quite overbearing. When we arrived, we were taken out to the back verandah for welcome drinks and a check-in/greeting. The lady was very friendly/kind but the greeting discussion dragged on for well over an hour before we were finally allowed to see our room. ##### Shari Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2022 ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - [Lodging](?equalTargetTab=tab-0) - [Flights](?equalTargetTab=tab-1) - [Packages](?equalTargetTab=tab-2) - [Cars](?equalTargetTab=tab-3) - [Vacation Rentals](?equalTargetTab=tab-4) - [Things to Do](?equalTargetTab=tab-5) - [Mai Tai Resort](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Mai-Tai-Resort.h2531183.Hotel-Information) - [Shantara Resort Port Douglas - Adults Only Retreat](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Shantara-Resort-Port-Douglas-Adults-Only-Retreat.h1754976.Hotel-Information) - [Coral Beach Lodge](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Coral-Beach-Lodge.h5025062.Hotel-Information) - [Port Douglas Motel](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Port-Douglas-Motel.h3595455.Hotel-Information) - [Mantra In The Village](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Mantra-In-The-Village.h913142.Hotel-Information) - [Martinique on Macrossan](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Martinique-On-Macrossan.h1142619.Hotel-Information) - [Peninsula Boutique Hotel Port Douglas - Adults Only Haven](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Peninsula-Boutique-Hotel-Port-Douglas-Adults-Only-Haven.h1030414.Hotel-Information) - [The White House Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-The-White-House-Port-Douglas.h2737801.Hotel-Information) - [Hibiscus Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Hibiscus-Resort-Spa.h2655208.Hotel-Information) - [Mantra PortSea](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Mantra-PortSea.h980672.Hotel-Information) - [Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Mirage-Resort.h8065.Hotel-Information) - [Titree Village Holiday Apartments](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Titree-Village-Holiday-Apartments.h3107959.Hotel-Information) - [Beaches Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Beaches-Port-Douglas.h2655285.Hotel-Information) - [Port Douglas Sands Resort](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Port-Douglas-Sands-Resort.h541953.Hotel-Information) - [Peppers Beach Club](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Peppers-Beach-Club.h1658996.Hotel-Information) - [Mowbray by the Sea](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Mowbray-By-The-Sea.h1580149.Hotel-Information) - [Port Douglas Retreat](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Port-Douglas-Retreat.h1080790.Hotel-Information) - [Mossman Resort Holiday Villas](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Mossman-Motel-Holiday-Villas.h5128699.Hotel-Information) - [Demi View Motel](https://www.expedia.com/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Demi-View-Motel.h8060798.Hotel-Information) - [Mossman Exchange & Backpacker Resort](https://www.expedia.com/Mossman-Hotels-Mossman-Exchange-Backpacker-Resort.h114233221.Hotel-Information) - [Flights to Douglas Shire](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Douglas-Shire.d553248634333004206.Flight-Destinations) - [Douglas Shire Vacations](https://www.expedia.com/Douglas-Shire.d553248634333004206.Destination-Travel-Guides) - [Car rentals near Douglas Shire](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Douglas-Shire.d553248634333004206.Car-Rental-Destinations) - [Douglas Shire Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Douglas-Shire.d553248634333004206.Vacation-Rental-Destinations) - [Things to do in Douglas Shire](https://www.expedia.com/Things-To-Do-In-Douglas-Shire.d553248634333004206.Travel-Guide-Activities)
