I had the best stay at Abbott Hotel! Lovely and clean rooms in an absolutely perfect location. Super quick walk to everything - restaurants, bars, docks for boat trips, Daintree pick ups, etc. The highlight though was the staff, they were so incredibly kind and friendly. Special shout out to the manager, Peter, for making my time there so memorable. We would chat every time I passed the desk, and it made for such a lovely environment while I was solo traveling. I’m so grateful I chose to stay here and cannot recommend them enough! :)

Everything! Tim and Paul are amazing, they just go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and help you at whatever you need! The rest of the staff is super friendly as well, it doesn't feel like a hostel, it has more like a homy vibe to it! The place itself it's beautiful! There are actual beds in the room, plenty of toilets and showers around and two kitchens!!

The sea facing apartment was stunning! It was huge with two lounge areas, fully equipped kitchen, huge patio with a large table and an inside dining area. It was double the size apartment that we were expecting! Everything was clean and comfortable and an issue with the air conditioning in the exceptional heat was quickly attended to. The netted area for swimming was a minute walk down the beach.

Great beachside house. Stayed with family including 7mth old. Cool location with lovely setting. Loved sitting on the front deck with beach views. Inside open plan good for just hanging out together. Had everything we needed plus extras we could use for picnic etc. Used kitchen and deck bbq. Glad we stayed here and not in Cairns. Host was excellent.

Great location away from the city center excitement still at walkable distance from it. We had the ground-floor appartment directly on the swimming pool and really liked it. The appartment was clean and the lady at the welcome desk very nice and helpful. The kitchen was well equiped.
