8/10 Good
"The property was in a central part of the town with ample shops and restaurants in easy walking distance. Be aware, though, reception is only manned between 2pm and 4pm. As I arrived just after 5pm it took me close to 25 minutes to find someone to check me in. I was only able to gain entry into the complex by another guest letting me in."

"A great location to stay if you are exploring the Daintree or taking a Daintree River cruise. The ammenities are clean and the pool is superb. The have licenced food vans on site, open daily for breakfast, coffee, dinner or a drink. We stayed in the tents, and they are lockable and are good value for the price you pay. (A few points to note: If you are staying here and need to use the Daintree River ferry, the ferry is $57 return for a standard vehicle. The Daintree ferry is about 10 minutes drive for this accomodation)."
