Thornton Beach Bungalows Daintree

Amazing location opposite the beach. Excellent comms from the owner. Just a really nice clean place to stay in the middle of the Daintree. A must if you're in Far North Queensland. The bungalows are easily accessible from the main road roughly halfway between the crossover bridge and Cape Tribulation Put your phone away and explore nature.

Very pleasant. Friendly caring host who is willing to help and guide. "Comprehensive care" I would say. Apart from baseline utensils and goods, there are extra: 2 umbrellas already at the front door ready to be used, a torch (in working order - in the bedside table) if need at night, kitchen and dinner table organised as BBQ under cover + trees in front of the bungalow with full kitchen utensils in the plastic tub etc...

A very comfortable stay. No TV and no Aircon…just the way we like it. We actually made conversation so any Gen X ‘s may struggle with this place. No need for Aircon as the louvers and fan were quite adequate. Thanks for being so open and friendly Dean. Across the road are the best views and Fish n Chips. Highly Recommend this place

The cabins are clean and contain all the creature comforts you need for a relaxing stay in the Daintree. We picked up some dinner ingredients from Mason's and made use of the bbq facilities. The next morning we made a cuppa and walked across the road to watch the sunrise over Thornton Beach

Set directly across the road from the beach and cafe, the bungalows have a lovely calmness. No 240 volt power is a blessing and the owners are very generous with their time.

Beautifully done tiny house. Unfortunately it was raining during our stay and we could not take full advantage of the outside seating and cooking/BBQ area. Many nice little touches and attention to detail by the friendly owner. Beach just metres away and a restaurant just across the road. Would not recommend the restaurant!! Not sure about the food but the owner was snappier than the local crocodiles.

Beautiful jungle setting just across the road from Thornton beach. Bungalow was small, but clean and tidy with good outdoor cooking facilities. Camp chairs are umbrellas a nice touch. Wifi problematic, which the owner was trying to resolve. Maybe provide some beach towels for longer stays?

3 of us booked this as part of a quick trip to cape tribulation from cairns. We had both of the small bungalows at the front. Some of the reviews on here seem so crazy to me. I’m not sure what these people are expecting in the middle of the rainforest! The cabins are perfect for a short stay. They have everything you can need - a fridge, with a very small freezer in the top, plates and cups and cutlery. There are bbq’s outside which are available to use. We stopped at port Douglas on the way up and grabbed burgers amongst other food. The nearest shop is a good 10 minute drive away, and the nearest evening restaurant around 15 minutes. The cafe across the road that is on Thornton beach is lovely, however does close at 3pm every day (aside from Saturdays, where I was told they stay open for dinner). Unfortunately the weather was terrible on our trip, but we made the most of it the best way we could. We sat outside and drank and ate and enjoyed just being in the tranquility of the rainforest. The beach is literally across the road. Dean and Jodie were excellent hosts. This place is exactly as described. If you are looking for 5 star luxury you are in the wrong place altogether. Thank you, we will be back!
