"Well equipped flat with really good staff in a good location. Za was super kind and booked all my tours efficiently. The only negative is the price, the resort is quite old and for just a bit more you can get a significantly nicer room elsewhere."

Daintree Crocodylus

Daintree Crocodylus

10/10 Excellent
"This place was brilliant. The staff were fantastic and always had time to chat and recommend great spots. Breakfast and dinner was always great with good portion sizes to keep you fed. We had an amazing visit to the rainforest and I would recommend the crocodylus to anyone who wants to stay IN the rainforest (and doesn’t mind the power being off at night). Also! If you have the opportunity to go on the night walk it really is a must do. Our guide Odin was unbelievably tuned in to everything going on, he spotted things we would’ve walked straight past and could tell us about all of it. We saw some incredible animals and plants and it was a highlight of the whole trip to NQ."

8/10 Good
"This was a beautiful little hotel. It was walkable to lots of restaurants and shops. I was looking forward to doing some laundry while here on my one night stay but the young man from the front desk had 1 of the 2 washing machines and the only dryer tied up most of the day so I was not able to get any laundry done. Even when I told him I had a short time to stay, he did not offer to let me go ahead of him and use the dryer, which takes over an hour to dry clothes. I could have stayed at the hotel for the rest of the day to get my laundry done but I wanted to get out and explore the beautiful little town and I’m hoping to do laundry at my next hotel."
