Incredibly peaceful property. Ideal place to detox, unwind, take in the local natural beauty of the rainforest and the beaches. Staff are very friendly and hospitable.. The Day Spa was as relaxing as it was timely to speed up the ability to unwind on our arrival. The team here are really good at what they do. Restaurant is super casual, but don’t let that fool you. The menus offered for lunch and dinner are sublime, quite Eurocentric in its presentation, but given it is so well done, it works. Memorable meals include the Sous Vide Duck, the freshly shucked oysters, the seafood used, the desserts - especially the panna cotta. There are a couple of rock pools on the property. if you use the one near the main building, you get to enjoy Crocodile Spring Rolls - which were a bit of fun to have with a cocktail. Prices are good value, rooms are set in beautiful natural areas - some with forest views, some with water views. Go for the water views if you can, it is worth it to wake up to it each morning. Port Douglas is a little over 15 minutes drive north, and Palm Cove about 30 minutes south.

This was an incredibly beautiful and soul-soothing place to stay. The decades of work the owner has put into rehabilitating this area is inspiring. The grounds were gorgeous, the cabin was beautiful (and we had one of the less expensive ones), the bed was comfortable and the staff were amazing. The restaurant was just gorgeous with a beautiful view. We saw some wallabies whilst walking around the property and plenty of what my husband now refers to as "reef chickens" building their mounds. I loved that there was a bit of a breeze there. The property is up a little higher than some areas around there.

Wow! I read some negative views and shortened my stay based upon they. I regret that. This was such a beautiful place. Waking up in the morning to the sounds of tropical birds was so relaxing. The staff were over the top with their hospitality. I cannot recommend this place more. Do not read the negative reviews. They are simply inaccurate. One was about walking around at night which we enjoyed as it is so beautiful however the staff is always circling in a cart to drive guests around if they do not want to walk.

we enjoyed the bliss of being accommodated in a forest setting. so many lizards and birds to see, plenty of places to walk, beautiful beaches, rock pools, mangrove’s etc. you could hangout and read a book in a hammock strung up between coconut trees and then drink a coconut rum cocktail out of the coconut by the pool. the restaurant was really cool, it had semi panoramic veiws of the cliffs and mountains falling into the coral sea. great massage. i also liked the cove.

The exclusivity and private bungalow per guest was very nicely laid out. With golf buggy’s available to take you around the property 24/7. Along with the beds in the rooms are so comfy, and to wake up to the birdlife is such a nice way to start your days. Really wish my partner and I had’ve booked longer to make the most of the whole Port Douglas area with so many tours/experiences & day trips on offer.
