Absolutely delightful. We have stayed in many places in Australia and this is our all time favourite. The tropical gardens are delightful and attract a wonderful array of birdlife. Rita knew a huge about the birds and helped us with recognition. The male Bush Stone Curlew checked us out each night to make sure we were not a threat to... More

The Mountain View Lodge is a beautiful place with lovely bungalows preserved from the touristic frenzy in a luxuriant garden overlooking the mountains. We were very well welcomed by our 2 hosts Rita and Walter who spent some time with us to advise on the touristic attractions in the area and gave us some good tips which proved very useful.... More

The week my partner and I spent at the Mountain View Lodge was wonderful. Rita and Walter are excellent hosts, with a wealth of knowledge of the area to share with you. As long as you've got a rental car, this location is ideal; to get to most anything, you've got to go at least 10km down the road. The... More

We really enjoyed the place. The bungalows are nice and very clean and situated in a luxuriant tropical garden. The owners have been really helpful and very kind. Too bad we couldn't use the swimming pool because of the rainy weather. However we enjoyed all the other facilities such as the BBQ. C'est vraiment un superbe endroit, tout près de... More

We stayed here for four days, right after arriving in Australia in December. It was absolutely perfect. The grounds are like a tropical paradise (the pool is amazing) and the bungalow is clean, comfortable and well-stocked and Walter and Rita are ideal hosts. Rita sat down with us for about a half hour when we arrived, going through brochures and... More

Our 6 night stay at Mountain View Lodge was to be a chill out. There is nowhere better. Our hosts, Walter and Rita were most welcoming as were the resident family of bush stone curlews, as long as we had something for them. A car is essential. The location makes Daintree easily doable and Port Douglas is only 10k away.... More
