Give it a go for peace and relaxation

Really enjoyed the rainforest setting. The property and rooms are immaculately neat and clean. Very peaceful relaxing on the balcony / deck. Premium quality bed / pillows and sheets - slept very well. Staff so very friendly and helpful. I think this place and all of Cooktown is beautiful, but reminding others, best to have a car and some bug spray. Hotel is 3mins drive outa town.
