We like the idea of being close to the boardwalks and being as north into the Cape Trib area as possible without a 4WD. Unfortunately, though, our only Cape Trib options seem to be the safari tents at Jungle Lodge (not PK’s Jungle Village) and Cape Tribulation Camping. Would it be worth it to stay in safari tents in either place? We’re not fussy but want to make sure we can get a decent night’s sleep in a room that’s not disgusting. Since there are no reviews posted of Jungle Lodge, can anyone provide any opinions?
Our other options are
Lync Haven’s
Red Mill House
Crocodylus
Farmstay (but may be booked; no response yet)
Daintree Escape
Heritage Lodge
Daintree Manor
Coral Sea Views
Epiphyte
Or would you recommend we stay in one of these above places? I cannot find a website for Cow Bay Hotel but would be willing to consider it, too.
Many places (Cow Bay Homestead, Cape Trib Exotic Fruit Farm, Ferntree Rainforest Lodge, etc.) are already booked for our early August dates (something seems to be going on August 2nd). Rainforest Hideaway is closed for renovations. A few other places don’t take seven year-olds or are above our $250 limit. PK’s Village has a cabin for three available, but y’alls reviews have scared me off although the location is tempting. (Even I have my limits!)
