We recently spent 3 nights at Silky Oaks Lodge in early February 2024. We couldn't have asked for a better experience! The resort itself was gorgeous! We loved our bungalow and the view of the Mossman River. The staff was over the top friendly and accommodating. We arranged some day trips through the front desk, ABC Snorkeling to the Great Barrier Reef and Walk About Cultural Tours to explore the beach and the Mossman River Gorge. Both experiences were life altering. I wish we had made time to go to the spa - we received a personal tour before we left. We'll definitely do that next time. We made wonderful friends with the staff and cannot wait to return. Thank you for taking such great care of us!

Our family (parents 3 20s children) had the most amazing stay in 2 treehouse rooms. It was like an enchanted forest with great food (included) and drink. Very relaxing and just the thing for the last 4 days of a long and busy trip. We just enjoyed our surroundings and didn’t even feel the need to venture outside the resort. Our adult children loved it too. Highly recommend.

What an incredible hotel, on the border of the Daintree. Stayed here for two nights, and would have loved a third - it goes too quick. As we arrived at the hotel, we were faced with a gate to the Lodge. We buzzed, and by the time we'd parked a porter and receptionist were coming to greet us at the car. Our luggage was taken, and our incredible time here started. Where to start... the room was lovely, with a hammock on the front balcony. A bath was on the back, facing the lush greenery. A fridge stocked with wine, cheese - and cupboard stocked with crisps, crackers, cookies and more. Everything you could want to enjoy your time in the room, and restocked each day. The reception is in a large open building, that continues through to the restaurant. The restaurant looks over the river, which you can hike along if there hasn't been too much rain. The height of the ceilings give a large open, airy feeling - and helps to give a feeling of calm and relaxation. The pool was a nice escape, with drinks offered from the bar. Unfortunately no pool service, but the bar wasn't too far away. They were happy to bring it down to the pool. The river itself was stunning, and is quite safe to swim in (we were told) due to the colder temperature, the constant flow of water, as well as the rocks that are on either end of the river. Kayaks and other swimming gear is provided on the riverbank. Highly recommend the Rapids trail. You wont be disappointed. A beautiful stay, would recommend.

Lovely time, would recommend for couples or solo
I visited with my boyfriend for two nights during and we had a lovely time. Whole property was exactly as pictured. Everything was immaculately cared for and pristinely clean. Very relaxing, peaceful but also opulent vibe. Doesn’t seem like a spot that would interest children, definitely more couples or solo retreat-appropriate. Our treehouse was fantastic. Spacious, clean, temperature controlled, beautiful bathroom and peaceful interior. Bit unusual not to have TVs but we both have streaming services on our iPads and the wifi was fine so no big deal. Very weak bathroom lighting and no alternative well-lit area elsewhere in the room so I couldn’t see a thing when putting on makeup but that’s pretty common in hotels. Our favourite part was the constructed rock pool. We really enjoyed swimming in there, beautiful temperature, very serene - and being a quiet lodge with limited guests, we had the pool to ourselves. My only gripe was that the arrival “chat” and commune feel felt quite overbearing. When we arrived, we were taken out to the back verandah for welcome drinks and a check-in/greeting. The lady was very friendly/kind but the greeting discussion dragged on for well over an hour before we were finally allowed to see our room.

We love the location, layout of the lodge surroundings and particularly the upgrade of the main lodge and the treehouses. This was our 2nd visit and strangely found ourselves in no. 37 again - bathroom upgrade is fabulous. Loved the food and staff were wonderful. Great spa experiences.

this is a beautifully appointed lodge. Very peaceful with very attentive staff. We would have liked a choice of simpler food alongside the very way out dishes that were served.

Exceeded our expectations!
My husband and I decided on a short holiday to relax and enjoy the tropics. Whilst we knew from the website pics that it would be luxurious accommodation and surroundings, we didn’t anticipate the exceptional quality of the food and overall dining experience. Hats off to the chef and all the staff at Silky Oaks. We will return for sure.

Incredible and Idyllic
Incredible Lodge. We loved it. We stayed in the River Treehouse and it was great. The river was low b/c it hasn’t rain much. The service was outstanding. We stayed 4 nights and ate in the hotel everyday for breakfast and every evening for dinner. The food was very good. We went on a hike on the property and it was well worth it. We walked down to the river and waded in. We were extremely happy with staying in the Rainforest as opposed to Port Douglas and were glad we chose Silky Oaks. It exceeded our expectations.
