We had a great stay and the house was comfortable and well equipped. Beds were comfy. The rainforest sounds were loud and lovely at night through the shuttered windows. Very quick drive into town. Lots of interesting bird life around in the beautiful gardens. Thank you!

Thanks Robbie, we had a lovely time relaxing in this space. Perfect for a private getaway, only 10 minutes from Kuranda. Lovely to get some one on one time with a partner, and just relax in nature.

CharlotteRating, 5 stars13 months ago
Perfect weekend getaway. Sarah and Clint were so welcoming and kind. Pristine facilities and situated in a beautiful location, just out of Yeppoon but a very short drive. Myself and my dog stayed for two nights and it was wonderful. Sarah goes above and beyond to make her guests feel at home. The room was clean, comfy and homey! It was the perfect area to relax and de-stress. As a younger female, I really felt welcomed, safe and at home staying with Sarah and Clint. I will definitely be back, it is great to know there is this accomodation available for the future - bonus is it is pet friendly!! Thank you x 100 for the lovely stay!!

The house is very comfortable. Great beds and pillows. There is good security and a backyard that was perfect for our dog. The air conditioning is very good and the house is screened to keep out tropical bugs.

Park House Yungaburra

ashleeRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
If you’ve been scrolling through listings searching for a fabulous family place or one which suits a large group, then you’ve found it. There were four adults and five children in our family and this place still had plenty of room to spare. It’s clean, comfortable, cosy, quiet, relaxing, homely and has absolutely everything you need. If you wish to cook up a feast, it has a pizza oven and even a thermomix! The outdoor entertainment area is awesome and so easy to be outside watching kids roll around on the grass or use the kayaks. The kids reported their bunk room to be better than any they’ve ever used & that’s coming from teenagers. The room is seperate to the other bedrooms so the squealing, laughing & ridiculous dancing is all contained for adults to have quiet space in the pretty surroundings. Ric and Jilly were excellent hosts and we have found a place to return if we’re in the area again. Thank you for sharing your slice of heaven. 🤗🤗

What a great cottage in a perfect location. So close to the beach and the never-endingly-beautiful walkway to and from Cannonvale and Airlie Beach. Chrissy's place had all the amenities you could possibly need and was very secure for our two dogs. Chrissy was really helpful and friendly. We really hope to return

Hughes Hideaway – Central, Peaceful & Pet Friendly

StephenRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a beautiful stay for a few days here and it was a wonderful time. We have 2 young children and the amenities and house was really well setup for family life and requirements. Beautiful location, we felt cosy but also spacious in the cottage. Vaulted ceilings really help bring a calming vibe to the house. Alister was awesome to work with and he helped alot with really clear instructions and a great setup that took the stress out of our stay.

Mojo’s Salt & Pepper Cottage * 500m to the beach*

AmyRating, 5 stars7 months ago
Marco and Dani were wonderful welcoming hosts who know how to do an air-bnb right. lt was well appointed and felt like home, had stunning mountain views and was a short stroll to everything Palm Cove has to offer. Which for us that meant a week filled with fantastic restaurants, relaxing times on the world class beach, fun watersport adventures and the perfect home to come back to. We were sad to leave and hope to come back again!

Black Swan Farm - Walsh River - Dimbulah

Julie-AnnRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We stayed for a special family occasion and it was special indeed! Rhonda was above and beyond accommodating for our family for this special event. We made well use of all the amenities at the farm, paddled in the river, made pizza dough and cooked them in the pizza oven they were perfect thanks to here detailed instructions. We had camp fires daily and bbq hamburger on the hot plate for lunch, bacon and egg cook ups for breakfast. The firepit is a camp cooks dream 🤩. We couldn’t fault a thing and hope to stay again in the future. Amazing!!

Port Douglas~Hidden Gem~ Mountain Side Valley

ChrisRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Beautiful country setting, a short drive from Port Douglas. The cottage was spotlessly clean with every little detail thought through making our stay immensely enjoyable. We sat on the terrace enjoying the gardens while making a BBQ most evenings. Highly recommended for a peaceful retreat with easy access to the local attractions.

Usnea, A Nature, Art and Accommodation Space

Jaiden LeviRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Our recent stay at Usnea was genuinely the most amazing experience we could have asked for. Ben and Joan are the kindest, most inspiring hosts and it is clear they have put decades of passion into this beautiful property. From the entrance, to the guest cottage, to the many walking trails and gardens throughout, this place truly is breathtaking. It is really no surprise so many guests have visited several times.

Boater's Cottage

We had a wonderful stay at this cottage! The host was responsive, kind, and made sure everything was perfect. The place itself was clean, spacious, and very well-equipped—the kitchen had everything we needed (and more) to prepare meals comfortably. Would definitely recommend and hope to stay again in the future!

Hibiscus Cottage

LaurettaRating, 5 stars9 months ago
Hibiscus Cottage was a great base for our stay in the Cape Tribulation region, north of the Daintree River. The property is very peaceful and private with beautiful trees and gardens around the house and tropical rainforest all around. Lots of bird song. The cottage is very comfortable and has all the amenities you need. The tropical fruit breakfast provided at Epiphyte B&B was enjoyable and a great way to connect with some fellow travellers each morning. The cottage is in a great location - close to Cow Bay, good restaurants nearby for dinner and a spectacular drive up to Cape Tribulation. Matt was very informative and provided us with great ideas to enjoy our time in the region including forest walks, beach walks, creeks, tours and local restaurants and cafes. Altogether, a great stay in a beautiful and unique region of Australia.

We had an amazing stay here and would highly recommend it! The place was spotless and the aircon worked great. We loved the location, super convenient on the Bruce Hwy - you will need a car of course! We had lots of privacy staying here and really enjoyed it. Thanks again Suzanne & Amber
