Daintree Crocodylus

Fabulous simplicity, warm welcome and comfortable clean accommodation. 2 adults 2 children very happy with our rainforest stay. Food was delicious. We didn't do the guided night walk but heard others say how great it was. Helpful staff and well run. Highly recommend.

Stayed at Daintree Crocodylus with family including young children. It was a terrific experience. The cabin worked well for a family of 5 - it was spacious and the beds were comfortable and having our own bathroom was great. We loved the jungle trail and the night tour was excellent too. The cafe is fabulous- great food (generous serves!), great for children as well as adults. And the staff are amazing- so friendly and helpful. Thanks to all.

Sorry to say I cannot rate this accomodation very highly. When I was paying $240 per night I did not expect to have to make my own bed. The shower was cold and when I mentioned this to staff I was told to put the basin tap on to build up pressure for the shower. Maybe a sign with this instruction in the bathroom would have helped. The mosquito nets were ineffective as they had large holes in them. There was also no door on the bathroom. There was evidence that there once had been but it had not been replaced. I will definitely look for better accommodation when I next visit the Daintree.

My partner and I stayed at the Daintree Crocodylus Village in January 2024, just after the tourist restrictions were lifted. The location is absolutely stunning, surrounded by nature, making it the perfect place to escape for an immersive, close-to-nature experience. Although many attractions were closed, Sally provided us with excellent directions to explore local beaches and trekking areas. She also suggested areas for us to look out for on a night walk through the property, allowing us to witness the local wildlife up close. We were the first tourists on the island after Cyclone Jasper, and on the night of our stay, heavy rainfall caused the ferry service to shut down, stranding us. Despite these challenges, Sally and Steve were incredibly helpful. They used all their contacts to ensure we could leave the island and catch our flight the next morning. They organised an emergency evacuation boat during high tide and heavy rain, showing exceptional dedication to their guests and relieving a huge stress for us. We are also so grateful to Steve, who, through Sally and Steve's network, ensured our rental car was returned and handled all necessary procedures so we wouldn't be charged for the extra five days the car was stranded due to the emergency. We definitely plan to return to experience everything the Daintree has to offer. Despite the closures and roadblocks, the location's beauty left a lasting impression on us. We can only imagine how breathtaking it must be when everything is fully operational. A heartfelt thank you to Sally and Steve for all their help, and apologies for the delay in posting this review!

it was great to experience the Daintree as it is, without the pollution of people. We have a yellow-footed bird that made a loud noise at night so didn't sleep well, and woke up to a cassowary on our doorstep. The daintree really does come alive at night. My partner really enjoyed the night tour and the explanation of the preservation of nature and luminance. I enjoyed the access to the cafe and a kitchen so we made our dinner one night, and ordered another. We then used the board games to play with friends at night.

Amazing experience in an amazing region! Daintree Crocodylus enabled us to discover the Rainforest from a unique perspective, including enjoying a cassowary’s visit during breakfast. Steve and Sally were warm, helpful and generous hosts! We will definitely be back.
