Staff was very welcoming and friendly, appreciative to have a conversation with you, our room and shared bathroom were both clean, beds were comfy, breakfast at Safari Lodge is very yummy (brekky wraps are the best!) including great coffee. Within walking distance you get convenience store (closing at 5pm), bar, dining restaurant, rainforest walks, beach (do not swim - crocodiles) and lookout points. We will definitely come back.

  • Can I pay in cash or send a cheque in the mail? I need a dorm bed for 7 nights from Monday 12th until Sunday the 18th of October 2020. I do not have a credit card. My ID is a Mathew Talbot Hostel Photo card No. 4760. I tried to make a booking on my tablet. It was not completely successful.
