Malanda Lodge ★★★
"It is great value for money and way beyond my expectation. The wall between rooms is very thick brick which provided good privacy and quiet environment. They provide an after-hour number to call in case of need which is very considerate. I will recommend to anyone travel in this region."
The Canopy Rainforest Treehouses & Wildlife Sanctuary ★★★★
"Perfect place to stay in the rainforest. We planned to make excursions in the area to seek birds and wildlife. They all came to us. Cassowaries and delicate little pademelons under our veranda. Green-winged pigeons, whip birds, catbirds, rifle-birds visiting. Missed one photo of rifle-bird because it was perched on camera. Scrub turkeys everywhere. Possums. Stream just below with turtles and platypuses. Complementary tour with resident nature expert, who pointed out tree kangaroo and fluorescent lichen. Cabins are charming, tucked into forest so you're unaware of neighbours and feel very private. Fire on cold evenings, well equipped kitchen, to cook at home, since it seemed foolish to be elsewhere. Highly recommended."
Mt Quincan Crater Retreat ★★★★
"This was my first time staying in the Tablelands and the first time we stayed here. We had wonderful blue sky weather! These treehouses are so unique and special. I loved the privacy of them, how rustic they were but with also a touch of modern. They really did have everything we needed. We brought food from home but were also surprised to see a fridge with wonderful breakfast items for us. We felt so spoiled to arrive to fresh baked bread and 2 pumpkin scones wrapped up in kitchen towels in a basket. There was also port and chocolates waiting for us. The booties were perfect for the cold nights and mornings and we wore them all the time. My partner enjoyed making a fire and using the BBQ. The property was lovely and we took time to explore the trails. We were lucky to see a tree kangaroo running across the path on the property as well is up in the tree. We also saw other kangaroos and wildlife right outside our treehouse balcony. Our experience was truly amazing including the communication when we had any questions. We will be back for sure.😍"
Chambers Wildlife Rainforest Lodges ★★★
"Great Location - Poor Accommodation & Service! We first stayed here 11years ago and were VERY disappointed (my last review is still listed here on Trip Advisor - September 2013). My partner thought she’d give us a night away and after reading some of the more recent 4-5 star reviews, we thought that things had changed. Unfortunately, we were wrong. I’m not sure if other people have a different expectation than us when paying $200+ per night, or they were lucky to get a better room, but things have only marginally been upgraded and our experience doesn’t come close to what some other reviewers have written. For $200 per night for a one bedroom unit, we expect better than what Chambers Wildlife Rainforest Lodges provide. We were placed in a centre unit of three. The interior of this unit was better than the one we inhabited in 2013 and had been given a facelift with newer furnishing, upgraded floors, ceiling and walls. However, whilst renovating the walls I think they forgot to include any sound proofing. The noise by other guests next door, from both left and right of the unit, was ridiculous. What sounded like doors or cupboards being slammed shut went on and on during the late evening and early morning. There was no mould this time and a de-humidifier was going flat out when we arrived. This seemed to be working well and the room was dry. We don’t use a de-humidifier where we live, were not familiar with it and as there were no instructions or notice to turn it off, we left it going. Not a good idea, because at 1:45am the unit decided to start beeping loudly to advise us of something wrong. I immediately turned it off. Although we didn’t expect anyone snooping around outside, the bedroom curtains didn’t shut completely (see attached photo) and there were NO curtains in the front room, apart from see-through white mesh ones. Privacy was non-existent. The bathroom lights didn’t work - virtually just glowed - a candle would have provided better light. We had to compensate for this lack of light by using one of the bedside table lamps (see attached photo) which was ridiculous and it looked like the wiring at the damaged lamp plug could potentially be dangerous (see attached photo). When we told the reception about this, it was made out to be our fault for not turning up the dimmer switch. Funny thing was, they didn’t have a dimmer switch, just on on/off switch. As I said at the start, there have been some improvements, however, they forgot to sort out the gas cooker. The control nobs on the cooker were basically unreadable (see attached photo) and badly damaged. The gas was barely coming out (maybe the bottle was empty?) and was only just enough to warm some steak we’d purchased for dinner. As to the wildlife, we saw a sugar glider, a long-nosed bandicoot, a honeyeater and a whip bird. We also heard a wompoo pigeon. The sugar glider and bandicoot looked like the ones we saw being feed last visit but I don’t think they’d have lasted 11 y"
Rose Gums Wilderness Retreat ★★★★
"What a great place, isolated yet not too far away from "civilisation". Memories of sitting on the veranda listening to the rain forest will stay with me forever. Manager is great, very helpful at all times. Local wildlife is amazing. The lodges are very well appointed and we really could not have asked for more."
Crater Lakes Rainforest Cottages ★★★★★
"The best place we stayed in in Australia. Jenny is the perfect host and has set up these cottages in a location where mammals and birdds could be habituated. Amazing showing of riflebird, musky-rat kangaroo and other species."
Malanda Falls Retreat ★★★
"Best air bnb type accommodation I’ve ever stayed in. It was absolutely immaculate. It was clean, extremely well appointed and had everything you could possibly need plus many little extras. Location is perfect to explore the Atherton Tablelands region. Hosts were so welcoming but while they lived in a seperate house on the same property, I never knew they were there, my privacy was completely respected."
