Guest Reviews

• Sandra (10/5): We thoroughly enjoyed our stay , exceptional - The property had everything you need , beautifully set up to ensure you have a relaxing stay and enjoy everything the area has to offer .the gardens blend in beautifully with the surrounding rainforest The facilities are exceptional , and set up in a family friendly way, Melanie and the staff , have done a great job , we’d recommend this accomodation to anyone Thank you all
• Dominic (10/5): Exceptional Experience. Highly Recommend. - Everthing. What a fantastic experience. Would I return. Yes. In a heartbeat 💓 It was amazing spending time in the Jungle. Nothing.
• Christopher (10/5): -
• Maria (9/5): Overall wonderful property and great hosts. - Spacious and lovely property , perfect size for our group of 7. Pool was a lovely bonus! Garden lovely and verandah superb for evenings. Hosts were attentive and very helpful. We were very pleased with a welcoming local produce in the fridge! Would not hesitate to recommend this property in the heart of Daintree. A few more bigger Pott’s in the kitchen , and a few more tea towels ( one per day-would be very helpful). Fan in one room was a bit noisy for sleeping. Could not work out how to open the Safe door in the rooms. We did not see the bins for waste - would appreciate waste sorting options for waste recycling.
• Andre (10/5): Already missing this perfect stay in such a special location - We loved everything about this house, we were pleasantly surprised from the start, as we got in everything was tidy and decorated with good taste. We found a range of groceries, fruits and drinks that made for an awesome start to our stay. The place has everything and more than we could ask from a guest house, including indoor and outdoor games, an amazing pool with a deck overlooking the rainforest, barbecue and a terrace that is great for outdoor dining and enjoying the evening with our family to the sound of the forest fauna. Indoors, the kitchen has everything we needed, including a coffee machine and cooking utensils and basic groceries to prepare a meal. the bedrooms are well furnished and decorated with taste and the bathrooms spacious. The place is well situated, close to the grocery store, cafe and pub and activities such as the great reef tour operator "ocean safari" and beaches and bushwalks. We can't express enough how we loved this place and already miss being there. Cape Tribulation is such a special place on earth, and Alena is the perfect place to enjoy it! The only improvements that I can think of is having a better indication of the location of the houses on arrival, and adding some bowls for breakfast cereals :) Nothing that disturbed our stay in any meaningful way.
• Zwijnen (10/5): -
• Gaya (10/5): Nicely maintained little house. We like it so much and yes definitely we will go there again. - Tge location and the nature It is better have ac's in bedrooms
• Michael (9/5): Great Place to Stay at the Daintree - Just about everything
• Nicole (8/5): - Alles eigenlijk, niks te klagen! Prima naar wens. Ietsje te diep en te ver rijden in het regenwoud zelf, maar als het dat maar is 😏.
• Nichita (10/5): - the house is abdolutly magic, big confy whit everything you need and more, the pool is amezing and the sorroundings are stunning, really a magic place, and the host is fantastic. we truly loved everything was everything perfect
• Peter (10/5): - Lovely older style house, as pictured. Very well looked after and clean. Everything you could need is provided. Great outdoor space with pool. Would stay again
• Josie (5/5): we had a wonderful time there. It’s just a shame that things don’t work properly in the tropics. - we like the accommodation but unfortunately it was no air conditioning and I had to ask to have fans and I understand that in the tropics things go wrong. It just wasn’t happy. I had to chase him up to get fans like they should’ve been there the day we arrived I’m sorry and the lighting wasn’t very good. There was no lights due to the same situation of the fans. no fans in the rooms look the host were beautiful people you know they they bent over backwards for us. The surroundings were beautiful. Sit in a beautiful setting.
• Michael (10/5): - What a fantastic place nestled in the rainforest! We were only a family of 4 but you could easily fit several families here. Very close to local cafes/restaurants. You could walk to many of them if its not too hot. Only one air conditioner in the place, but every room has a fan so we were mostly quite comfortable.
• Howard (9/5): -
• Caveney (9/5): Excellent relaxing stay in a tropical rainforest environment. - Loved the tropical rainforest location. Quiet and with a private pool which the kids loved. Bathrooms were a bit hot with no fans.
• Anja (10/5): - Sehr nette Gastgeber, Kaffee, Gewürze, Prosecco standen bereit. Nichts
• Dorothea (10/5): - This accommodation was incredible! It was so lovely, with lots of space, 4 separate bedrooms and lots of toys and games provided! My teens loved it and so did my husband and I! The garden feels like a little paradise, with the pool and lovely plants! This House has everything you need and more! We highly recommend!!!
• Jennifer (9/5): - Excellent location! Wonderful host. Would stay here again. Host even provided bread, fruit and wine.
• Ingrid (10/5): In alle luxe Cape Tribulation optimaal beleven - Prachtig huis op een perfecte locatie In het regenwoud Dichtbij het strand Van bijna alle gemakken voorzien Fijn zwembad Goede host Geen vaatwasser
• Amy (10/5): Fantastic place to stay in a beautiful location - We loved the location of the house- it felt private and the gardens were lush and beautiful. There were plenty of (good quality) games for us all to play when we were relaxing. The bedrooms were all a good size and stayed nice and cool. It was eay to walk to everywhere in Cape Trib. The house was great value for money and even better than the photos.
• Timothy (9/5): A real taste of the rainforest with gorgeous gardens and visiting birds. - Peaceful, spacious and well-equipped - in a great location. It’s obvious the owners wanted us to have a positive experience and responded promptly to every query. Thanks! Nothing.
• Michael Albin (10/5): Our first rainforest experience which were fulfilled better than anticipated! - Everything were very nice looking and practical, especially the pool area which are raised up in level, which is so clever thought of! The outdoor plants and outdoor areas around the house are lovely! In the evening we enjoyed games and the very large screens for movies via our own logins. Melanie, her team and Joe will do all they can to make you comfortable and make sure things work! Remember that you are in a rainforest, which provides exiting sounds and beautiful environment! Only thing; could need a new kitchen table around the zink area.
• Michelle (10/5): Exceptional -
• Skye (10/5): A magical location with everything you need for a comfortable stay - The serene location of this property is hard to beat, especially sitting out in the pool cabana with a view of the tree canopies, watching the Ulysses butterflies and dragonflies dart around. The house is also amazing - Melanie has honestly thought of everything, from a fully functional kitchen, to mood lighting, to comfy couches to loads of hanging space for towels. We also appreciated the darts and other games to keep the kids entertained. As a special touch we also had tropical fruit, bread and Prosecco waiting for us in the fridge on arrival. Nothing we didn’t like - just wished we could have stayed longer
• Hwee (10/5): Lovely location for a visit to Daintree - The house was in an ideal location at cape Tribulation close to everything we wanted to visit in Cape Trib. The host was very generous and provided us with a well stocked kitchen with eggs and bread and even alcohol. There was very comfortable bed linens as well. The towels were soft and lovely too. We enjoyed the garden and all the fun outdoor activities available. There was also Disney plus signed into the telly for the kids and they had a blast. They really thought of everything to give us a wonderful stay in Cape Tribulation. We didnt pay attention to the warning about ants and left food outside while out and the ants got to our food. So please keep your food items safe in the fridge!
• Jacobson (10/5): Special! - It was in a beautiful, secluded location but still walking distance from the beach and activities. There were so many personal touches and it felt like home. Both the hosts were helpful and friendly. The treats in the fridge were a lovely additional touch. I highly recommend and would stay again for sure. The ants inside the house (not the properties or hosts fault, just the nature of the location). We learnt the hard way after leaving food out on night one. As long as you put your food in the fridge you will have no dramas.
• Simon (10/5): Exceptional - Loved the pool and garden setting. Everything was clean and comfortable and the treats in the fridge were greatly appreciated. Highly recommended!
• Wendy (10/5): Fab stay in cape trib - Loved this house in Cape Trib. Set in a beautiful garden with a lovely pool. 4 spacious bedrooms with best shower ever and comfy couches. 5 -10 min walk to shops and tourist boardwalk
• Lindsay (10/5): Glen and Mel presented the place beautifully and made us very welcome -
• Hsin-yu (8/5): Very good -
• Stephan (10/5): Exceptional - Awesome space, well above expectations. Great pool and heaps of different areas to chill around. Close to points of interest. The hosts are very caring and we are looking forward to our next stay here. Glenn and Mel are awesome and I know they will have great success with their ventures.
• Barnabas (10/5): Exceptional -
• Brooke (9/5): Superb - We had a fabulous stay at Alena House. The house is beautiful and clean in gorgeous gardens. Hosts were so warm and welcoming, left a bunch of great supplies for us and a well stocked bookshelf. Everything we needed for a super relaxing week in the rainforest.
• Shannon (9/5): A beautiful stay! We felt we were in the middle of nowhere but had easy access to everything. - Everything had been thought of by the hosts! It was clean, comfortable and well equipped for our group of 6.
• Tania (10/5): Alena Star - We loved everything about Alena Star (the space, comforts, amenities, indoor & outdoor areas, suitability to all ages groups, lots to see and do both on site and in town, location to town, the serenity, the everything). We will be back for sure! Nothing at all!
• Rachel (10/5): Absolutely amazing! We will book ahead as it’s a hidden gem - Absolutely beautiful! Amazing hospitality in cape trib!
