Location
This is the only place on earth where two World Heritage-listed environments live alongside each other. On one hand, the extraordinary tropical underworld of the Daintree Rainforest. On the other, the sparkling turquoise of the Great Barrier Reef.
Ideally located in the heart of this unusual harmony is your hideaway, where a rare nature lovers’ paradise awaits you. Go bushwalking, horse riding, kayaking, snorkelling, fishing in the estuaries, or simply unwind in one of Australia's most beautiful, untouched settings.
