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!"

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."

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."

"What an amazing place to stay!! I really can’t find the words to justify how wonderful this place was! The privacy, the security of the yard for our small dogs, the creek was just amazing, and everything we needed was supplied in the cottage. We will definitely be returning and sharing this with our friends (although not too many because then it’ll be booked out all the time and we won’t be able to come back and stay)."

When is the best time to go to Cape Tribulation?
The best time to visit Cape Tribulation is during the dry season, which runs from May to November.During these months, you'll experience consistently warm, sunny days with lower humidity. This makes exploring the Daintree Rainforest and enjoying the beaches much more comfortable. The daytime temperatures typically range from 20 to 29 degrees Celsius, which is superb for outdoor activities like guided rainforest walks, snorkelling, or simply relaxing by the coast.The dry season is also the best time for wildlife spotting. Many of the unique creatures of the Daintree, such as cassowaries and various bird species, are more active and visible. The calmer waters during this period are also ideal for reef trips, offering excellent visibility for snorkelling and diving on the Great Barrier Reef.While the wet season (December to April) brings lush greenery and dramatic thunderstorms, it also means higher humidity, more rain, and the presence of marine stingers in the ocean, which restricts swimming to netted areas or stinger suits.
