    It's a great place. The house is clean and very cozy, there is everything for a comfortable family stay. Excellent kitchen and BBQ area, stunning mountain views from the porch, and a chorus of frogs can be heard in the courtyard in the evening. We will definitely come here again.

    Some might not like the lack of Wi-Fi . Curtain in rear bedroom needs repairs. A flyscreen on the front door would be good. Would be nice if previous guests cleaned the BBQ!

    Convenient and peaceful location, plenty of room, ceiling fans make it very comfortable (you don't even really need the aircon), everything works (except TV). Actually better inside than the photos suggest.

    Great location in quiet village with paddocks across the road and birds, frogs and geckos in the garden. Close to where we wanted to be for early morning Daintree Village Boat Cruises.

    Our fault really, the host kindly provided mozzie coils but we couldn't find anything to light them with and we forgot to bring matches ourselves.

    The house is an older house that has been beautifully renovated and furnished. The location and yard were absolutely beautiful. It was clean and all the beds including the trundle bed were very comfy. Perfect place to disconnect and relax, can't wait to come back.

    Everything was fab! The location, the decor, the cleanliness, the facilities within the house. If you are lucky enough to be able to book this house, don't hesitate. It's absolutely enchanting. There is a lot of wildlife in the area, including insects so if you don't like this you should stay away from the whole area (not specifically this house). Loved being amongst the birds and away from the tourist throngs. We travelled with two primary aged kids.

    Shower had no water pressure (seems like it was clogged up since there was excellent water pressure everywhere else in the house) and was difficult to get a constant temperature, so I bathed my young children in the kitchen sink as I didn't want to risk them getting burned if the water suddenly went hot.

    Beautiful views and easy walk around the small village. Nice and quiet location. Excellent facilities and beautiful garden - the home was perfect for my family. Wonderful to be able to do laundry and hang it outside to dry, or on the patio if the weather wasn't great. Very comfortable beds and great sized rooms. There were even a few toys in the cupboard, which my 4 year old loved. We absolutely loved it here and would stay again in a heartbeat! Thank you!

    The only thing I could fault, which is very minor, was that we couldnt find a dustpan to clean up after we swept, there was no exhaust fan in the bathroom and no antenna connected to be able to watch Tv.

    This place had everything we needed for our little 2 night getaway. Is in a quiet little town which was a great starting point for exploring the Daintree. Everything was clean, the beds and couches were comfy. There was so much space and loved how it had so many sitting areas, inside and out. Was great to sit outside and cook a bbq. This place had a very cosy, homely feeling. Great value for money. Would definitely stay here again.

    No WiFi, no free to air TV programmes available, hence limiting our connection to the outside world. Scary experience when faced with the sudden rising of river water levels due to heavy downpour 😢

    Owner has been most helpful and accomodative. Appreciated the assistance rendered when we were stranded for another day due to a severe weather event.

    We don't know if the tv worked or not as it did not appear to be connected to anything. There did not seem to be a dvd player although it said there was one when I booked. The notes on the place said look at the instructions in the drawer to operate the television but there were none. Despite this we managed to get some music on our phone and played scrabble which we enjoyed for a change.

    We never met the host. It was very nicely presented and looked better in real life than in the photos. Very relaxing place. We loved the garden and all the birds in the trees. Were sad to leave.
