Cape Tribulation Hostels

"If you enjoy nature, getting off the beaten track a bit, and lazy days in the rainforest or at the beach, don't miss Crocodylus Village YHA. This hostel has more character and out-there feel than any other we stayed at during our extensive travels around Australia. It is located off the main road heading towards Cape Tribulation at Cow Bay on Buchanan Creek Road (right turn heading north). Tour guides will likely drop you off here on the way back from Cape Tribulation. So what's so special about this place? It really is literally in the...  more »

"Ferntree Rainforest Lodge in Cape Tribulation feels more like an expensive resort than a hostel-price room! We definitely could have stayed longer. Ferntree is located close to all attractions in Cape Tribulation, with only a short walk to restaurants (it has its own restaurant and there are others nearby), the grocery store, the fruit bat education center (check it out), party spots, and the wonderful beaches. They also can help arrange attractions in the area, from exotic fruit farms to snorkelling trips on the reef. Staff are very...  more »

"Cape Trib Beach House is one of a handful of hostels in Cape Tribulation, and the only one right on the beach. Most travelers come here on trip from Cairns and stay over one or two nights, while some choose to stay longer and soak up the rainforest atmosphere. Cape Trib Beach House has a tour booking desk in reception and can advise travelers about things to do in the area, including guided night walks and tropical fruit tasting.

"Situated in the heart of Cape Tribulation is PK's Jungle Village. It is quite a large resort with its own on-site bar and restaurant, however being in the middle of a National Park, it is a fairly quiet place. The hostel offers dorm rooms, double/twin rooms, as well as camping facilities for a cheap price. The dorms are fairly large and very clean with fewer bugs and spiders than one might of expected as all dorms are outside cabins. The bathrooms are also very clean with plenty of sinks, showers, and lavatories, so you will never have to...  more »

"A very accommodating resort. The staff reflect their love of their jobs and are always happy to help in any way. The staff create an atmosphere that allows you to feel that you are welcome to do anything you like. The grounds are vast and the beach untouched. This is a great getaway for those people who crave freedom. The food is all home cooked, and I had some of the best meals I have ever had there. It knocks 5-star accommodations on their butts. Freedom, caring friendly staff, and excellent food — what more does a holiday need?" …...  more »

Fan Cooled and Naturally Ventilated Safari tents bring a touch of Africa to the iconic Daintree Rainforest and provide the perfect platform for a true Eco experience. Alternatively Powered Camp Sites are available for the more intrepid traveler. Alive with the sounds of the Rainforest and abundant Daintree wildlife, its location in the heart of the Cape Trib Jungle Village, just a short stroll from the beach, restaurants, chemist and IGA...  more »
