Missing availability to cook your own food for dinners & the fridge was very small to accommodate family food.

Beautiful area and comfortable accommodation

A warm welcome from Gill the owner, who went out of his way to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. An interesting and characterful place to stay in a former wildlife park. Facilities clean and well equipped. Breakfast included was an added bonus.

You can see that this location was hit hard by COVID. It’s obvious that Gill and his wife had to make a hard choice closing down the zoo. The outside of the location therefore looks a bit uncared for, but never judge a book by its cover. The rooms and the company of the owners make up for this a lot.

The room was good. Nice bed and nice showers. The host (Gill) was very kind and a great chit-chatter. 😊

The communal areas have charm but could use some sprucing up

Really friendly service. Large room with huge bathroom. Very unique experience being able to tour the former zoo. The location works well in terms of being able to venture out to explore the region

This is not a complaint, but just information for others. All of the rooms are upstairs so if you have heavy luggage, you will have to carry it up the stairs.

The hostess was very friendly and helpful. This establishment is in a rural and picturesque setting. Although it is situated near a main road, traffic noise was not really an issue. The room was spacious, modern and comfortable. The breakfast provided was quite good and included yummy mango juice made from the fruit from the hostess's fruit orchard. The honey also originated from the property.

Our navigation system did not provide correct directions to the BnB A word of caution to new quest about this possible glitch is advisable.

Breakfast was good and served fresh delicious mango juice. The host, Donna was attentive and a great conversationalist. The BnB is located in a quiet peaceful location.

It won't suit everyone. Since the lack of tourists during Covid, the Zoo has closed and the place is a shadow of what I imagine it's former glory would have been. You'll also need to Cart your gear up 2 flights of stairs. It suited us, but don't come expecting a conventional hotel, it's something a bit different.

We enjoyed our stay here. Gil is a legend (we didn't get to meet Donna as she was ill). Room was comfortable and had character, we liked the decor. The property suited us as a 2 night stay to explore the daintree. It's very close to the ferry and river tours.

Everything was fine.

The location was central for sightseeing. Continental Breakfast was laid out nicely. We can suggest eggs to be added to menu. We enjoyed access to public lounge area.

Stayed in August 2023

Unattractive, gloomy exterior and initial entry. Name of property sign-posted differently to booking name leading to confusion locating the property. Lack of provision and no means of preparing dinner in an isolated location. No prior advice of access to rooms being up 2 flights of difficult stairs.

Spacious attractively decorated and well appointed room. Atmospheric surrounds. Very well located for our purposes. Extremely comfortable beds. Friendly, informative and efficient service. Tasty and well presented breakfast.

The only inconvenience was that Wi-Fi was only good in the lobby.. however, on vacation, one should not need Wi-Fi very often.

Hostess is very personable and concerned about her guests. She even waited up for me when I was late getting back in the evening..

Our planned flight was cancelled and we arrived very late at night, so we missed the opportunity to enjoy the envirionment, but the staff was very friendly, making our stay very pleasant.

the breakfast was very good; location is appropriately located

There was nothing we didn’t enjoy

Donna and Gill were amazing hosts who were exceptionally helpful and spent time chatting with us. The rooms were beautifully set up with a lot of room. The bathrooms were also a great size. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely go back.

no wifi.

the bed is good . Good room size. Beautiful interior decoration. Breakfast is really nice with tasty jam and juice. The host is excellent. We arrive really late because of flight cancellation. She insists to wait for us to show us our room and give me many travel advice around Daintree.

Communal areas like breakfast tables and chairs could be cleaner. Too many mosquitoes. But you would expect it as they have tried to keep it nature friendly. The views are straight into huge trees while having breakfasts..

Amazing host, the owner and keeper, Donna! She was super warm and friendly. Goes out of her way to help you with your requests. Rooms and toilets were super clean

Had read reviews and seen a lil of what to expect. Areas a bit out dated.

Local knowledge and friendliness of owner. The fresh mango juice was amazing. Beautiful comfortable room. Great to go and see the remaining birds.

We very much enjoyed our stay, rooms were huge, and the small table and chairs outside our room were perfect for relaxing with an afternoon cold drink. Donna was the perfect host, chatty and informative. Taking the walkway to see the crocodiles in the lagoon, the kangaroos and feeding the emu topped off our stay.

Continental breakfast with fresh mango juice and local honey. Really good.
