Sobre esta propriedade

Botanical Ark Retreat near the Daintree

Boutique holiday retreat just 30 minutes north of Port Douglas.
The Botanical Ark Retreat offers so much more than just exclusive Daintree accommodation. It's your own private peaceful retreat with freshwater swimming area, free WiFi and set amongst the award winning gardens of The Botanical Ark. This secluded property borders the Daintree National Park and is just 30 minutes from the Daintree River ferry or Port Douglas, gateway to the Great Barrier Reef and fabulous restaurants.

The Botanical Ark is not open to the public so guests at The Botanical Ark Retreat have exclusive use, privacy is guaranteed, and identities remain confidential.

The Botanical Ark Retreat is a spacious tropical self-contained home, with a gourmet kitchen, and a king sized master bedroom with marble ensuite and spa-bath. Three additional private bedrooms at the rear of the house (2x queen and 1 room of 2 singles) share an additional shower and toilet and allows up to 8 guests to stay.

Relax on the wide verandah overlooking the bubbling freshwater lagoon, with it's own private sandy beach. Wake to the songs of rainforest birds, and enjoy the tranquility of the garden.

The Botanical Ark Retreat is ideal for couples, family holidays and friendly reunions. Nature abounds in our peaceful Whyanbeel valley of jungle clad mountains and waterfalls.

Located within the valley are an art gallery, High Falls Farm Restaurant, and Karnak Playhouse. (Some of these venues are seasonal and/or open on specific days only). Local chocolate farmers also operate farm tours and a chocolate centre.

The closest town is Mossman, just 20 minutes away, which is the administrative and service centre for the Port Douglas and Daintree area. Here you will find popular cafes and Mojo's restaurant (recommended), along with two butchers, a bakery, newsagent, new Woolworths supermarket, doctors, hospitals and more. Port Douglas is just a further 10 minutes south. Mossman has a Saturday morning market and Port Douglas a Sunday market.

The area is rich in activities and exploring, from Crocodile cruises, and bird watching, to the Kuku Yalanji Aboriginal Cultural Centre and tours, paddle boarding, river and ocean fishing, bushwalking and helicopter tours, Great Barrier Reef snorkeling and diving and more.

The region is also rich in history. The world famous Quinkan Country Prehistoric Aboriginal Art Galleries are found in the magnificent sandstone escarpments to the north west. Gold, copper and tin mining towns, some abandoned, and others still functioning can be explored, and numerous locations relevant to Captain James Cooks trials and tribulations can be found along the beautiful coast. The elevated Atherton Tablelands to the west are home to ancient volcanic craters and lakes, rich soils and highland rainforests. Small towns dot the area and weekend markets are to be enjoyed.

Absolutely idyllic property with everything we needed and more. Simply put we couldn’t fault a thing! Well situated for all the Daintree offerings or absolutely blissful to spend time in the gorgeous property with stream fed private pool in luxuriant leafy setting.

Truly special, secluded paradise

A unique property. The botanical ark grounds are truly extraordinary and created with great love and care. The house was well suited to our two families of four and featured a great natural swimming pool, lovely meals on the Verandha overlooking the pool and gardens and a very well equipped kitchen. Mossman is a Short drive away with great produce available. Alan & Suzi were great hosts and made sure we were well provided for. Our sons did a good job harvesting coconuts on the property and lots of great tropical fruits were provided by our hosts. A very special location which was great for exploring both the Daintree and Reef.

Tropical rainforest paradise

We had a fantastic time at your unique rainforest retreat. Just wished we had gotten the opportunity to meet the owners. Judging by the book we read at the retreat, that would have been a great bonus. Barbara

Peaceful rainforest luxury

We had a wonderful stay. The property exceeded expectations, very well equiped and in an amazing setting. The natural swimming hole is beautiful. While being very isolated, Mossman, beaches and the Daintree are convenient. The hosts couldn't be better. Allowing us our privacy but also inviting us to a relaxed morning tea

Amazing Rainforest Retreat

We enjoyed our stay in this very well appointed and presented house which is located in a private, tropical paradise. The house is generously stocked with quality linen, appliances, condiments and toiletries. Arriving to displays of beautiful tropical flowers throughout the house, a spectacular fruit bowl as well as wine and chocolates was a much appreciated surprise. Alan and Susan are outstanding Managers, who communicated clearly and assisted us with helpful tips/advice from the time of booking. We highly recommend the Botanical Ark to others who are travelling in Nth Qld and looking for a very luxurious rainforest retreat.

Paradise Found

Such a glorious place! Coming from the dry ACT region we were treated to lush rainforest, exotic fruits and flowers and slept each night to the soothing sound of the rain. Each night we dined on the wide verandah and listened to the night sounds of the surrounding rainforest. Alan and Susan were warm and hospitable hosts. They have created a unique environment. We were privileged to have experienced it.

It was indeed a pleasure to have you stay at our Retreat and to meet you and your family. The rain that falls here enables this garden to thrive amidst the surrounding ancient rainforests. We are happy you embraced the sounds of the flowing water and the animals that we enjoy so much. It adds to the peace and tranquility that we treasure. You were perfect quests and we welcome you back anytime.

Glorious tropical retreat

Amazing stay at this tropical paradise in the hills above mossman. Plenty of room and privacy, gourmet kitchen with lots and lots of basics provided, with the center of attention being the huge terrace overlooking the freshwater lagoon that we swam laps in every day ! WiFi and Netflix, every appliance we needed and air conditioning made it very easy for the whole family. About 15 min drive into the hills from mossman, and about 30 min to Daintree ferry to explore cape trib. Highly recommended and special!

Heaven

If your looking for a place that’s quiet isolated but still close to shops and holidaying “stuff”, with all the comforts of home then this is the place for you. With nature that’s associated with a rainforest, and clean water to swim in. This place was heavenly lol. This accommodation was so great that when we return we will be looking at staying here again

Sobre o anfitrião

Anfitrião: alan carle

Imagem do perfil do anfitrião
I spent the first 19 years of my life in the Catskill Mountains, near Woodstock, New York State. My band played ‘in Woodstock’ – not to be confused with ‘at Woodstock’. From the age of ten, I knew that Australia was my true home, and was determined to reach her shores early in my life. I’ve been here since 1970 and my youthful judgment goes unchallenged.
I arrived in Sydney, Australia, on a one-way ticket in 1970 with eighty cents in my pocket. I headed north to the Great Barrier Reef where I had dreams of building an underwater house. I studied marine biology at the Townsville campus of James Cook University.
Together with my wife, Susan, from Brooklyn, NY we developed a deep appreciation of the natural beauty, wealth, and wonders of the planet.
It was plans by the Queensland Premier of the day, Joh Bjelke-Petersen, that led us on our present path. Bjelke-Petersen wanted to drill for oil on the Great Barrier Reef and chop down Queensland’s rainforests for woodchips. Alan left university to work full time for the Cape York Conservation Council in an effort to save these national icons.
Millions of people within Australia and around the world fought to protect the reef and rainforest. “Thankfully”, says Susan, “We won.” And today, the Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree Rainforest are world heritage listed areas and promoted as, “Where the rainforest meets the reef”, and is probably one of the main reasons why you are or will be visiting this beautiful region.
