Verified traveler

Disliked: Staff & service
We considered cancelling our trip due to having a car accident, called Wotif/the hotel manager to discuss and was verbally abused by the hotel manager then had all money drained from our credit card. Even though we had decided to attend because we paid for the accommodation, we were blocked by the hotel manager who wouldn’t take our calls. Currently dealing with the relevant ombudsman to put forward a formal complaint. Wouldn’t recommend this hotel or booking through Wotif.

實在是一個很美好的體驗， 酒店就在熱帶雨林中間, 間中有野生袋鼠和孔雀走進酒店來, 真是一大驚喜! 酒店後院行落去 就是一條河流 , 可以 經過一條獨木橋過去對面, 帶小朋友去親近大自然實在是一個很好的地方!

Relax in the rainforest...

We loved this family run place...the owners were incredibly knowledgeable about the area and so helpful in suggesting trips and places to visit. The kids did their bit to help too and we were given a lovely tour of the property by 5 year old Maive! If you're looking for a quiet place to relax in the beautiful rainforest this is the stay for you!

This is not a resort (misleading).

19Klms from Kuranda then another 20mins on a dirt track. Inside "Resort" was dark! smelt! and totally uninviting. It was a very bad experience as it cost us the total nights accommodation rate as we immediately left. This is not a resort --- it is a retreat for hippies! DONT be fooled by the photos.

Quirky rooms in wonderful natural setting

Enjoyed our 2 night stay at Cedar Park very much! Rooms are quite quirky but comfortable and spacious, but the real treat is outside. Great private outdoor area with comfy hammock and chairs and big gardens & natural bush to explore. Friendly wildlife everywhere! Dinner at the restaurant was excellent.

DO IT!

LOVED THIS PLACE. The family that owns it is in it for all the right reasons, and it shows. The resident animals are an incredible element all by themselves. The rooms are huge, the beds heavenly, and the showers hot. They serve a fantastic dinner that is not to be missed. If we ever have the luck of being back in the area, we will for sure stay again (and hope to meet the Platypus next time!)

Lodge mit Känguruhs, Kakadus und netten Gastgebern

Über eine Holperpiste ein bisschen schwer zu finden, aber es lohnt sich! Eine Lodge im Regenwald mit allabendlichem Besuch von Känguruhs, Kakadus und vielen anderen Tieren. Große Zimmer, Hängematte auf der Terrasse, eine hervorragende Küche, nette Gastgeber und ein Kajak unten am Bach, in dem es angeblich sogar Schnabeltiere gibt. Und das alles keine 20 Minuten von Kuranda entfernt - ideal für Ausflüge aller Art!

Great rainforest retreat to wind down and relax

We wanted some chill out time away from the every day things in life - thiscertainly gave us time out and was a wonderful place to stay I was certainly different with it's gothic quirky style but very relaxing with it's lovely grounds and creek closeby you can hear your own thoughts and the birds are singing with the forest eveloping you The new owners are still finding their feet and are defintely commited to the future of the business they defintely make you feel relaxed and welcome - and I wish them all the best The food is amazing in every way and Peter has taken the time to find the right person for the job They are slowly upgrading things around the place that needed fixing as It took some damage in last years cyclonic weather

Loved Cedar Park!!

Only cons I can think of of, is the fact I booked only one night in Cedar Park. I loved the room,facilities, food... But above all - the very warm welcome and care the owners gave. Strongly recommend if you are into a real gateway, located actually deep in the rainforest. Go there.

comfy bed and on sight wallabies

It's pretty magical to go out to the covered dining area for breakfast and have a wallaby hop in from the woods to get a piece of sweet potato. They even have on site bee hives producing honey for the breakfast. It is about an hour drive up some winding roads from Cairns, so you definitely need a car to stay there. We did some amazing sight seeing from there though. So I would highly recommend it.

好きな人はハマる宿。

森の中の小規模な宿。テレビなどと隔絶して、手作り感のあるおもてなしを受けられる。肌寒くなるとロビーに暖炉も入る。「寝に帰る部屋」ではなく、食事を含めてゆったり滞在を楽しむことをお勧めする。クジャクや七面鳥が部屋の前を歩き回っていたり、新鮮な体験ができるはず。 なお、宿まではクルマ以外のアクセスはなく、少し悪路もある。一般の一流大型ホテルとは遠い価値観で運営されており、豪華絢爛というわけではない。旅慣れた人またはオープンマインデッドな人にお勧めする。 子どもがいる人は、オーナー夫婦の子どもと遊べるのもよい。強烈なキャラクターの自然派ガールが森の洗礼を浴びせてくれるので、よい異文化体験になると思う。

Hidden Gem in the Rainforest

What a fantastic little place this was a few miles from Kuranda. The rooms were spacious and furnished with a real "jungle lodge" feel to them. There is also a nice deck out in front of the rooms with lounge chairs and a hammock. There are only 6 rooms and we were the only people staying there that night so we had the place to ourselves. They have a restaurant and a menu to look at ahead of time to order from to book your dinner. You just tell the chef what you would like to order and what time you would like to eat and he prepares your dinner for you when you want. We ordered a pasta dish each and it was the best food we had eaten since being in Australia (we had been there for 2 weeks). The dessert was well presented and so delicious as well. You can bring your own bottle of wine to the table which we did. We were woken up in the morning by various birds squawking but it was a great experience to be somewhere like this. I would highly recommend this gem!

My wife and I spent a weekend here recently, which is too short a time in such a beautiful place. Another couple of days is needed to appreciate the peacefulness and relax a bit.
