Ferntree Rainforest Lodge

In need of some TLC, some of which would be costly but some pretty easy and straight forward.

Staff and service was very poor and not very accommodating. Pricey for what I would consider a 2 star resort

Cool loft room for the kids. Bar was nice. Pool looked nice but was closed for maintenance

Loved the location and the layout of the resort however the beds were quite hard and uncomfortable and very hard to get the right temp in the shower

Good: House was clean and well equipped. There are some attractions and good restaurants near by. Bad: Drainage can be improved as all sinks and toilets seem to flow through one pipe which tends to overflow and wet the toilet floor. Could smell some urinal smell if not flush to clear from the pipe.

Strong smell of mould in room, bathroom in terrible condition could not stay there considering $140 a night

Small room. To many apartments on a small area. No staff available on arrival

The resort is very tired. It needs some work done to it. The lighting inside the rooms is very dull and it's hard to read or do makeup or even play cards. Our sheets had holes in them and you had to walk a long way with your luggage to reach your cabin. They have tea and coffee and a kettle in the room but no microwave. The shower had no grout from waist height down or if it did all you saw was mould. The pillows also need replacing. There were curtains missing from a window so anyone walking past looked straight 8n and no screens on windows.. *this is in a rainforest) go figure! The room are spacious and very clean ( bar the shower) although 5he ladder to upstairs beds is very steep. The restaurant was nice and the food delicious. . For the price I would expect a lot more. Would not spend that much money on a place like that.

My wife and I visited Cape Tribulation in February and stayed 2 nights at Ferntree Rainforest Lodge. We enjoyed our stay as the room was clean and comfortable. The room had a big bed, sitting area, fridge and bathroom and a second sleeping area with 2 beds upstairs, we didn’t need it but it was interesting. The hotel also has a restaurant which was pretty good. One night we tried the crocodile skewers with a side of chips/fries and the next night we had the seafood platter, we were unable to finish it, it was a lot of food. Overall we had a good experience.

Strategic position to the most beautiful Cape Tribulation beach. Peaceful. Overnighting in the rain forest is a unique and unforgettable experience
