Daintree Eco Lodge

The room was gorgeous. We stayed in the Rainforest Hideaway which comes with the balcony bathtub that overlooks the rainforest. This was an extra special touch, the bath itself was large and comfortable and it was raining while we were there so it was like being immersed in a beautiful soundscape. The room had all the amenities you would want (tea, coffee, wi-fi, robes and slippers etc). The staff were absolutely lovely throughout our stay and the food was beautiful. The ecolodge is incredibly romantic and the restaurant overlooks a body of water that attracts many of the forest residents including a chorus of frogs. I can't tell you how much we loved it here, but we left feeling so relaxed and very much in love with the experience. Can not wait to come back again.

Contrary to other reviews we've seen, the Ecolodge is NOT "tired" in any way. It's beautiful. Our rainforest bungalow was beautifully provisioned, clean, and idyllic. Everything is modern, especially the bathroom, and the bed was divine. The central areas of the Ecolodge are stylish and comfortable. The staff are absolutely next level amazing, as is the food! We did the 6 course degustation on our second night and the food was absolutely *to die for*. In fact, all the food was delicious and well-presented, even on the regular menu, and the included breakfasts were exceptional. I'm glad we only stayed 3 nights though... wouldn't stay longer, as there is not all that much to do unless you're keen on significant driving. Our only slight complaint is that the "gym" (if you can call it that!) is tiny and only has one cycle and a selection of handweights. Unfortunately my biggest "issue" isn't really the fault of the Ecolodge... but it needs to be said nonetheless. A HUGE party of about 10 adults and 10 young children turned up on our last night and morning. I'm surprised that the Ecolodge isn't billed as an adult retreat as everything about it isn't really geared towards families. The dining deck should be a place of candlelit calm and romance beside the lagoon, but... on our last night, and last breakfast, that was shattered. At dinner, all the adults sat together and the kids all at one table unsupervised. They were getting up and down, running around the tables to their parents. etc. We took our dessert to our room. In the morning, it was worse. We delayed our breakfast until the latest possible time to be finished before checkout, thinking the group will have already had breakfast. Well, essentially they had finished, but that didn't stop the adults sitting at the tables drinking coffee and talking loudly throughout our whole breakfast, with their children running in and out, playing games on the floor, even skating around the tables in their wheelie shoes, crying, screaming etc. The parents were completely tone deaf to the few couples like us who were trying to enjoy a peaceful rainforest breakfast. I can't believe they just continued to sit there as if the dining deck is an all-day play area. It was completely selfish. While I know this is not the Ecolodge's fault, perhaps there needs to be some counselling of such large groups in advance. Or give them a separate dining window and warn the other guests.

What a fabulous little place hidden in the Daintree rainforest. Staff were friendly and helpful, particularly the North Irish lads who were full of craic! The food was stand out, especially the six course taster menu. Thoroughly recommend from start to finish!

We very much enyoed our stay in the Lagoon Treehouses. It is a very special experience to sleep and eat breakfast directly in the rainforest. The rooms/treehouses were great - clean and good equipped. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was great as well. There is small à la carte choice. Everything we had was delicious.

Amazing immersive experience in the middle of the rainforest. Fabulous accommodation and lovely helpful staff. 5*!.

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.
