The location was spectacular. It was secluded which made it so special in amongst the Daintree. The hosts were super lovely and accomodating. Pool was certainly a highlight.
It is perfect escape from busy turist mainstream facilities for anyone that can appreciate peace and quiet. Property is tastful in the same time you have everything to make it your own holiday. There is nice pool to cool yourself in, enought space to sunbath, if you like, suficient facilities to prepare food on, great bed, airconditioner, nice bathroom etc., and on top of that spectaclur view over rainforest, mountains nearby and the ocean, tropical rainforest surroundings from wildelife at your doorstep to all the sounds around you all the time. Owners should be proud of what they have made and we can not thank them enough for letting us stay there and experience all that. Me and my wife spent there 2 nights and days, and all that time I could not believe my eys that such place exists. It was really sad to leave. Please appreciate this place for what it is. Thank you Paul and Diane.
Property was absolutely beautiful and very unique. We really enjoyed using the outdoor facilities and had beautiful views throughout. Property was very clean, well decorated, indoor and outdoor furniture in excellent condition and property fully equipped with everything we needed.
Everything. Not one bad thing. Would and will be staying here again one day.
A funky, cosy home close to everything we needed but far enough away to be our own slice of tranquility. An afternoon spent in the pool looking out over the view was the icing on the amazing holiday cake.
Unique. Private. Quiet. Views to die for. Beautifully appointed. Friendly hosts. We LOVED it
This was better than expected. It is a unique property, quite remote, quaint, self sufficient, up in the tree tops, and the owners have done a great job to make it a homely and special place to stay. Central location for coastal / bush walks, river cruises and 4WD trips. Few wild Cassowaries in the area down by roads - awesome to see and Crocs and wildlife in local cruise were amazing. Handy enough to do a river cruise in the morning, (Solar whisper recommended - just watch numbers on boat for social distancing), whip down to Port Douglas for lunch and a wee explore and back early afternoon. Another day we drove to Cooktown and back via 4WD trail - so all very doable and central - and nothing onsite was a great option too.
Our host greeted us with great warmth and attention.. they showed us all over our villa. The accommodation is an amazing off grid set up that has to be experienced to be believed... The view is superb...as you soak in the plunge pool in complete quite and privacy... We do hope to come back again..
This absolutely stunning place exceeded all our expectations. The view (once you ascend the driveway) across the untouched Daintree canopy onto cape tribulation was the definition of picturesque. As well as the view, the property itself is awesome. Sitting in the pool watching the sun go down is amazing. It is also great to have the contrast of living off grid in this modern world, thinking about solar power and gas, which puts things in perspective. Not only are the views spectacular in the day, but due to its seclusion, at night it becomes even more spectacular, with the night sky lighting up with stars. We couldn't say enough things about this place, just book it and have an experience you will never forget!
It was a really different and beautiful place to stay on our honeymoon. It has it’s own plunge pool and 3 different levels from which to gaze over the Daintree rainforest. We loved coming home from bushwalks to the earthship and sometimes didn’t go anywhere all day and laid around on the bean bag sun lounges. Whilst it is a very steep driveway, it’s necessary for the view - you just have to be careful. Good exercise if you don’t want to drive up. We walked up it 4 times in one day.
