The Lodge exceeded our expectation. The individual lodges were very well appointed and tucked away in the forest. When we arrived the staff were very helpful, as they were throughout our four day stay. The meals were varied and imaginative ... well done chef! Diwan is centrally located in the Daintree so the Lodge is a good spot from which to explore. We loved it.

Absolutely loved our stay.. we are a family of four with two little kids :) the pool is right next to the restaurant (which has AMAZING food) so the kids could swim & we could easily watch them and enjoy our meal which was served by really lovely hospitality staff… even had a chat to the chef!
The manager is a wonderful and warm host with great recommendations and always there for a chat!

My husband & I stayed for our honeymoon. We enjoyed our stay. Room was spacious (D250) Inroom appliances were great. It was nice to have a washer/dryer, dishwasher & double door fridge. The hotel wasn't to noisey. The feel and look of the resort was very relaxing. From first impression coming into the reception area I felt I was in Fiji. We wanted something that was tropical but without going over the top and the Ramada deliverd. Breakfast buffet was great. We had dinner in town every night &...

You know how you're often disappointed after arriving at a venue that you've booked online? This is NOT one of those venues! What a spectacular location. Shantara Resort was everything we'd hoped for and more. Fantastic facilities, very clean and well cared for. All staff were friendly, helpful and very accommodating. Handy to the centre of town, marina and beach - we had a car but didn't need it at all. Extra bonus of being a child free venue - very peaceful! We had an amazing time and will...

Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed with honest and friendly advice on the hotel's services, places of interest including available tours and being shown around our room. Nice to have some good old-fashioned service.

We were very impressed with this hotel. Lovely welcoming staff make a trip so much more enjoyable. The kitchen was well stocked with crockery, cutlery and cooking utensils, and plenty of room for your own food. TV has a few austar channels and there is a DVD player for which you can borrow dvds from the kiosk for free. Pool area and bbq were very clean.
