We should have translated the Italian review (posted here) before booking: (Google-free translation): "In the past month in Australia we have never stayed in a hotel dirtier than this." Be skeptical of glowing reviews. The pictures and words of this Internet site did not match our firsthand experience. We did not stay the night; we walked away from this booking . As of this date, our credit card company is still trying to get our money back. Please learn from our error.

Beautiful grounds, well kept, all natural energy (solar and hydro), wide verandahs

End of the rainy season and a smell of damp

The surrounding Daintree Forest environment is absolutely fabulous, the best I have ever seen anywhere in the world. Walking outside in the morning was like being in a jungle fairyland, the lushness and variety of the vegetation, the height of the tree canopy. I wished we could have stayed longer, but had limited time.

The sign was hard to see at night, fortunately we closely followed the Daintree map
