Tripadvisor Reviews

Read what our guests have said after they stayed at Rainforest Hideaway, most are pretty happy but there's always someone who had expected something different or hadn't done their research...
And as every hotel owner knows, there are unhappy people who turn in to self appointed hotel inspectors on power trips.
We have won Tripadvisor Certificate of Excellence 2014 and several years before that.

Booking.com Reviews

Compare the ratings of Cape Tribulation accommodation places on Booking.com and you will see that we are at the top.

Booking.com has only recently introduced the option for accommodation owners to reply to unfair guest reviews.
If they had this option earlier we could have replied to:

Review: Sloppy surroundings when you arrive (old bus sitting in the garden, bags of cement...). The motivation of the owner seems a bit down. Too basic for the price.

Reply: Guests are not supposed to enter the workshop area, and with our sculpture trail being a continuing work in progress there will always be bags of cement here. We work seven days a week here to keep our guests happy, this guest stayed a couple of days before my annual holidays so that means I had just done a nine month stint, so forgive me for being a little tired. Due to stubborn government denying us basic services like electricity we can not offer many things that are standard in other rooms around the world, such as bar fridge, TV, aircon etc. This does not mean we save money, but due to our remote location without basic services we incur a lot of extra expenses to run this place.

Review: Did not like listening to the frogs all night long 4 nights in a row bit to much for the price

Reply: We are deep in the rainforest, how can I explain to the frogs that they have to be quiet because someone has paid for a room?

Review:A bit of a meagre breakfast, weak internet connection in the guest room

Reply: We had just returned from a 300 km. roundtrip to the Cairns markets to buy the biggest possible selection of exotic fruits, and we do the breakfast buffet style so you can eat as much as you want, so I don't understand the meagre comment. The wifi signal has been improved since then with a relocation of the router but at least it is free, when I stay in Cairns I always pay around the $5 per hour for wifi.
What this guest did not mention was that we went out of our way with two trips to Mossman Post Office to retrieve a parcel for her.
