A high-quality hotel.

I love its tropical rainforest style! Being close to nature helps me relax both physically and mentally. The food is also amazing! I’ve recommended this hotel to many of my friends.

The staff were absolutely wonderful. Professional, friendly and knowledgable. The food was exceptional. Fresh, tasty, innovative and in excellent portions. The Ecolodge was a great place to start our day and a cool, comfortable refuge at the end of the day's activities.The location despite being in the Daintree was very accessble to tours, restaurants and shopping- for us. Ee recommend the Ecolodge without hesitation.

A Truly Magical Stay at Daintree Ecolodge From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome, offering helpful insights about the area and assisting us in arranging unforgettable tours. The sunset Daintree River tour was a highlight—immersed in nature and breathtaking scenery. A guided walk around the lodge with Emma was both informative and inspiring. We absolutely loved our treehouse accommodation, which offered a perfect blend of comfort and immersion in the rainforest. Dining was another standout—outstanding food enjoyed to the soothing serenade of frogs by the pond. The chef’s special 6-course meal was a true culinary masterpiece. Highly recommend staying here for anyone seeking a unique and enriching rainforest escape. An outstanding stay all around!

We loved our stay in the Canopy Bayan - it was quiet and secluded - just the sounds of the rainforest. The bayan windows are entirely screened in, so you can leave the shutters open if you want to listen to the rainforest all night. The rest of the property is beautiful and we really enjoyed the food at the restaurant! I was thrilled they had a plant based menu! :)

Great setting in the rainforest. Staff very helpful and friendly. Only issue on our visit is that it felt the lodge had opened a little too soon after the renovations required after Cyclone Jasper. Things didn't run as smoothly as we were expecting

Quiet Interlude.

Staff went above and beyond to ensure you felt welcome and settled upon arrival. The young Irishman was a fountain of knowledge about the facility, surrounding areas, nature in the area and naturally the food and drink. He epitomised high quality hospitality. The gentleman who took care of the rainforest gardens worked long hours and was always productively engaged. A very relaxed stay, even napped during the day, which is highly unusual.

Loved the location, had 2 walking paths from property right into rainforest. Clean spacious quiet room, the screened in porch was my favourite part. Did not really enjoy the restaurant- food was not that good for the price. Got the steak and it was very grisly. The hotel bar in Daintree village is the place to go eat- they had excellent food! The restaurant was also absolutely covered in spiders because it’s outside so would have liked to see some maintenance done regarding that issue. Just dust the webs off every day or 2 and that would be better. Didn’t feel very comfortable dining. That was the only bad part, everything else was excellent

The lodge was extremely dirty and full of bugs. The pictures on website seems photoshopped. The real condition of the room seems to be a motel rather than a 4-starred hotel

We first got there and the no tv thing had us worried lol. But this lodge is absolutely beautiful. You go to sleep listening to the peaceful sounds of the waterfall and animals. The food is beautiful and the staff are so friendly. And cater to all your needs.

Perfect stay in the rainforest

Perfect stay at the Daintree Eco Lodge. The rooms are lovely and spacious. Really liked the ‘outside’ enclosed sala. All the villas are private and all you can hear are the sounds of birds and frogs. The staff are amazing. They go out of their way to make you feel at home and the service is impeccable. Food is delicious and they do great cocktails! We stayed for three nights and ate at the restaurant every evening. An absolute must is the ATV tour to the waterfall. You’ll get very wet so go in swimwear only. It was so much fun. 10/10 for us

Tragic

A beautiful place with great food but the worst bed I’ve ever slept in. It was truly like torture. Every time my husband breathed it shook. It hurt my body. All I wanted was to sleep after a long day of driving and I basically paid $350 to cry.

Ideal for rainforest experience

Overall experience was excellent. Cabins were clean, spacious and set up to control rainforest sounds and light as needed. Also well protected against mossies and bugs. The restaurant was a stand out in terms of setting, service and food/wine. Location good for access to Daintree tours. Highly recommended.
