    Very good
    A great rainforest experience.
    Great rainforest experience in a good location. Staff were really helpful and considerate as cyclone jasper had just landed and caused significant issues in cairns. Pool was really nice.
    In the huts the doors didnt shut completely which let a few bugs in and the rainforest can be quite loud at night. Curtains may help this.

    The tranquil setting and relaxed nature of the owners made this an incredibly relaxing break. The cabins are so clean, beautiful and have everything you need. The owners can't do enough for you.
    Nothing to dislike

    Absolutely perfect for us and delightfully unique.
    Room/cabin was SO wonderful. Felt like we were alone in the rainforest, visited by unique birds within easy sight and earshot. Antjie was absolutely gracious, helpful and a wonderful host. Very helpful with recommendations for things in the area. Didn't have time to take advantage of beautiful infinity pool or deck, but looked very inviting.
    Shower in the hot tub was not a great situation, but we made it work.

    This place has one of the most amazing views! We absolutely loved our stay. There was cooking facilities - kettle, toaster, coffee pods and machine, stove, oven, microwave, sink.
    Doors didnt seal properly so was prone to insects getting in. Water taps need some adjustments.

    Relaxing rainforest retreat
    Waking up with the forest outside our door every day was like a dream! It's the most amazing place, it has everything you need for a relaxing stay, after we got back from exploring rainforests and waterfalls we loved coming back and having a swim and a spa bath, and the bed was so comfy and we enjoyed a whole day of just lazing around the room, it was so cosy and we loved every minute, the owners were also so helpful and lovely, we were on our honeymoon and they brought us up a bottle of champagne, we would definitely stay again!

    A 4-star natural paradise, best hotel we ever visited
    If you're a fan of nature and camping but also appreciate a luxurious room then this is absolute heaven! It's a small wooden cottage hidden away on a hill at the outskirts of Cairns city. You're at the absolute edge of the woods; beyond your cottage is the forest and the creek below. The doors of your bedroom open up to a balcony with in view only nature and the sounds of the forest, and the occasional twig or fruit falling on the roof of your cottage. You have a bath tub with jetstreams that fits 2 right in your room and a very comfortable and spacious bed. In the morning we threw open the sliding doors and got back in bed to enjoy another hour of birds singing and brush turkeys coming up to the balcony while foraging before getting up and enjoying a cup of coffee on the balcony. It was phenomenal to stay here. We almost regretted going out for a full day diving tour, because staying in would have been almost as great! We only stayed 2 nights, but had I known up front how lovely this location was I would've gladly booked longer. So to manage expectations: the cottage is an absolute dream! Be advised that there are no curtains (as this is the whole point of the cottage: being as close to nature without compromising the comfort of a 4 star hotel room), but since you're overlooking nothing else but forest the only privacy issues you'll have are with the birds outside. There are only 2 cottages, so the common area (pool and lounge/kitchen by the pool) is shared only with one other couple. The pool is very nice: good size, deep enough for a dive in and very luxurious feel to the outside lounge area with ambient lighting surrounding you on your swim in the evening hours. Everything was very clean and looked well maintained. The hosts were lovely too. I saw some reviews talking about bugs, but we didn't have any problems at all.
