We had a great one night stay. The cabins were thoughtfully set up to ensure a comfortable stay. The cabins were light and airy and really maximised the experience of staying in the rainforest. Also saw a cassowary come feed near the main board walk - the experience was surreal!

There was nothing we didn’t like. Loved the wilderness environment and its quiet seclusion, the Nature Walk and the dining experience. Special thanks to Ann who made every effort to help us sight Cassowaries, and who was a delightful staff member. It was my second time at the lodge and lived up to every memory. Angela and Di.

The location is beautiful amongst the trees. The cabins and public area's are tired and need repair. From a price point the cabins are quite expensive and not well maintained.

Fantastic accommodation deep in the world’s oldest rainforest. 7 secluded cabins reached by boardwalks. Bathroom with a glass wall facing the forest. Comfortable, well kept rooms. Restaurant serving breakfast and dinner, nice food. Very nice staff. Cassowaries and feral pigs in the immediate vicinity. Frogs and toads croaking through the night. A truly magical place to be!

We recently spent a night at the Daintree Wilderness Lodge as part of our honeymoon. The location was gorgeous being within the Daintree rainforest, however this also meant it was quite isolated. Despite there being a restaurant onsite with limited menu selections, other dining options were about a 26 minute drive away. Unfortunately the cabins were in need of a refresh, as they felt quite old and rundown. The cabins had an old and small tv, an aircon which wasn’t adjustable, and the rooms had an overall dark and damp feeling to it. All staff were really lovely and friendly. A nice place to stay if you’re after a remote stay in the rainforest, however we didn’t feel it was a good value for money given the high price and condition of the accommodation.

The Lodge exceeded our expectation. The individual lodges were very well appointed and tucked away in the forest. When we arrived the staff were very helpful, as they were throughout our four day stay. The meals were varied and imaginative ... well done chef! Diwan is centrally located in the Daintree so the Lodge is a good spot from which to explore. We loved it.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Wilderness Lodge. We really felt a part of the Daintree by staying in our little cabin amongsth the rainforest and being able to watch the cassowaries walk past our door was very special. We will be back.

The location surrounded by rainforest is excellent with lots of birds around. Staff were pleasant. I stayed here years ago when it had been recently built and it was gorgeous. However it's a bit run down now. The airconditioner was on a 2 hour time limit but there was no point even turning it on as it barely worked and the little bit of air coming out was warm. We tried to open some windows instead and a couple nearly fell out of their frames so we couldn't open and close regularly. The room was so hot (even overnight when ambient temperature cooled down a bit and even with the fan going all night on the highest (noisy) speed) that it was really uncomfortable. Also the advertised free WiFi was not available. We were told this was because "the phone lines are down" but we asked other businesses in the area and they said that wasn't the case. We asked for help with the aircon on the first night but the staff member on duty didn't know how to use it. We also mentioned these problems to the manager when we were leaving and she said she thought the windows had been fixed and didn't seem to understand the problem with the airconditioning. It was still a nice place to stay but does need some maintenance.

Totally enjoyed our 2 night stay in the Daintree Wilderness Lodge .. You really feel like part of the forest as you experience the sights, sounds from the comfort of your cabin. Watching bandicoots forest, hearing birds, bats and insects living the forest life. Great service, friendly knowledgeable hosts and superb location made the lodge a highlight of our northern adventure .. thanks so much!

Great property located in the middle of the Daintree. Rustic cabins set into the forest held you close to nature. Breakfast and dinner were excellent! Worth the trip just for the dinner! Some of the best food on our 12 day trip across Australia. The owners and family provided excellent suggestions for excursions in the rainforest.

BEAUTIFUL property set in the rainforest. The manager, Margaret and Daisy could not have been friendlier. They were full of local knowledge and very helpful. The breakfast and dinners are phenomenal. Outstanding chef. We stayed 3 nights and ate there all 3 nights. I would highly recommend staying here. It was a highlight of our trip.

Wow! We loved this place. What a unique experience. Almost like staying in your own treehouse in the middle of the rain forest. Jennifer and David were outstanding hosts and extremely helpful in finding and reserving amazing activities to do in the area. The hotel is VERY clean and the food was excellent. It sits back from the main road, so you are very much in the rainforest getting the full experience. As an added bonus, we woke up one morning to see a rare / endangered Southern Cassowary right next to the cabin.

Loved our little bungalow. The only problem was the hot/cold water in the shower, but since we were in the middle of the rainforest, it was understandable. Jennifer and Dave were wonderful and the meals were very good. We would definitely stay there if we went there again and recommend them to others.

We loved the rooms with skylights to give you a view of the canopy, the privacy, quiet and darkness at night. We had two marvelous breakfasts and dinners with great food and service. Jennifer booked us a reef tour which we enjoyed very much, introduced us to the local cassowary chick and was friendly, welcoming and helpful throughout. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

We found this lodge very welcoming, seems to be run by a husband and wife team. You need to remember it is an eco friendly lodge in an isolated rainforest area, not on mains power and phone internet reception is poor but we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. You are in a cabin in the rainforest; we had lovely rain on our roof to fall asleep to. The food was also very good (organic etc as well) and better than most other options in the local area. Jennifer highlighted local attractions on a map for us and was very accommodating and helpful. Lovely people doing a great job in the bush.
