Poured with rain the entire time we were here and had a great time nevertheless. Our whitewater rafting experience was cancelled rebooked, cancelled rebooked, and eventually fully refunded because the water levels were too high. We enjoyed the sky train which was fun and then enjoyed strolling the mountain (very touristy) town of Karuna (not sure I have the name of the town right). Went to a bird sanctuary which was also very nice - and did it all in the pouring rain. Next, we went to Mossman’s Gorge and did the three km loop also in the pouring rain and it was spectacular. The rainforest ironically offered shelter from the down pour and when we would duck out to see the river it was so swollen, thunderous and raging that we were silenced by its magnificence — truly awe inspiring. Hartley’s crocodile adbevture was a zoo/sanctuary experience and still worth it to see and learn about the mighty “salutes.” Nearby groceries and a beach strip of restaurants made for a lovely trip in spite of the weather. The place was as described - beach and pool proximate; well appointed with convenient appliances to Netflix and more. The place was spacious and very clean: thank you to our considerate and communicative hosts!
We came in the rainy season (Dec-Feb) and the huge porches were a real blessing to sit out on. The house is up a lot (4 stories up from road level) but it works just fine - be sure you can handle steps. Main living area is large and open and very pleasant. View of Cairns and the mountains is wonderful to wake up to.
We loved this property. It was exactly how it looked from listing photos, and there was more than enough supplied in the home for our two families to stay (5 adults 4 kids). The kids really enjoyed the pool and it was nice to have it on the shady side of the home. Overall we loved it and we would absolutely stay here again.
