Daintree and Cape Tribulation Resorts accommodation: Cape Tribulation Resort & Spa

Lot 10 Cape Tribulation Road , Cape Tribulation, QLD

The perfectly situated Cape Tribulation Resort & Spa (previously known as Coconut Beach Resort) is unlike any hotel in the world. The ancient Daintree rainforest is literally a living museum that has barely changed over thousands of years, while the Great Barrier Reef is the world's largest coral formation, comprising nearly 3,000 reefs, with 400 different kinds of coral. Its waters teem with spectacular marine life. Go bushwalking, horse riding, kayaking, snorkelling, jungle surfing, taste exotic fruits, enjoy rainforest walks by day or by night, crocodile cruises, fishing, bird watching, 4WD tours — or simply unwind in one of Australia's most beautiful, untouched settings.

Embraced by the Daintree rainforest, and caressed by the Great Barrier Reef, Cape Tribulation Resort & Spa stands alone. Indulge in 4 star comforts amidst wild surrounds with private rainforest views and easy access to the white sands of Cape Tribulation Beach. Rooms are elegant and spacious and the exquisite Daintree vegetation and the abundance of native wildlife creates an unsurpassed natural ambiance.

Cape Tribulation is the only place on earth where two World Heritage-listed environments live alongside each other. On one side, the amazing tropical canopy and underworld of the Daintree Rainforest; on the other, the sparkling turquoise waters of the Great Barrier Reef.

Cape Tribulation is located between two World Heritage areas; the Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree National Park, approximately 140km north of Cairns (2½ hours’ drive), and 75km south of Cooktown. Domestic and international visitors can fly direct to Cairns, where a number of transfer options to Cape Tribulation are available.

To get to Cape Tribulation Resort & Spa you can choose a coach transfer or a hire car.

Coach transfers are available between Cairns and Cape Tribulation daily. We can recommend a selection of transport companies who offer transfers to and from Cairns airport. Transfer time is approximately two and half hours each way.

You can also organise to hire a car or drive your own and enjoy the magnificent scenery at your leisure. Once you arrive at the Daintree River, the ferry, operating between 6am to 11pm, will take you across to the road to Cape Tribulation.

There are 66 rooms in total with two different room types — Daintree Retreats and Rainforest Retreats. Both room types cater for a maximum of three guests, and have easy access to Cape Tribulation Beach.
