"Perfect spot to stay when exploring the rainforest. Very centrally located to get to Cape Tribulation and Mossman Gorge. The staff was super friendly and helpful. Rooms were clean and spacious. Food was delicious. We encountered so many birds and lots of other wildlife while staying at Daintree Eco Lodge."
"A wonderful way to experience the rain forest in a raw and real manner. Wonderful for switching off and returning to nature. Don't expect all the bells and whistles, expect friendly travellers and staff, loud birds and heaps of rain."
"This lodge was in the middle of the Daintree Rainforest, which was so cool.
There was a tiny pool, but 2 nice natural swimming holes to wade in However, food was quite pricey for the quality you received in the restaurant. The Continental breakfast was a nice touch in the morning. It was great that we were loaned a flashlight and umbrella for our stay."
"A very nice hotel in a great location. Clean and beautifully maintained. The staff were outstanding and extremely helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely choose By the see again next time!"
