Gunnadoo - Ocean View Hut with jacuzzi, rainforest and ocean views
Just north of Port Douglas and Mossman, Gunnadoo is far enough away to enjoy spectacular peace and quiet, but close enough to everything you could wish for your holiday. Located across the road from Rocky Point Beach, this self contained private cabin is set on the hill, surrounded by rainforest and featuring beautiful views over the Coral Sea and Low Isle.
The property borders the Daintree National Park and Cape Tribulation is just up the road, perfect for a day trip or two of exploring the world’s oldest Rainforest. Great Barrier Reef cruises depart from Port Douglas, a 25 min. drive south as well as from Cape Tribulation. Mossman Township is just a 10 min. drive from us
The cabin is perfect for 2 people and offers a Queen Bed, ensuite bathroom, fan & air conditioning, wi-fi, smart TV (Netflix only, no commercial channels) tea & coffee making as well as an outdoor BBQ kitchen. The highlight of this absolutly private hut is a deck with Jacuzzi overlooking the coral sea and Low Isle! The Maui luxury hydrotherapy spa features 2 recliners facing the ocean and a total of 34 massaging jets!
Your outdoor kitchen is equipped with a large BBQ including side burner and sink. Inside the cabin you have a large fridge, microwave, tea & coffee making and a toaster.
Immersed in the rainforest with stunning ocean views, you can unwind and relax, but also be within easy reach of Cape Tribulation and Port Douglas!
Please note: Steep driveway not suited for campervan or trailer Telstra coverage is not very reliable being located in a remote area

Gotta do Gunnadoo
What an awesome place to stay and base yourself for a visit to the Daintree. This little jungle studio is hidden away in the rainforest with ocean views from the Jacuzzi and deck. It has everything you need and more...A+
We had such a relaxing time at Gunadoo. Relaxing in the spa or on the lounges overlooking the sea - sensational. Short drive out of Mossman and into bliss. Thank you
We had such a relaxing and quiet weekend…you have your privacy and own little oasis, can see and hear the ocean, relax in the bubble spa,…exactly how described or even better! Amazing how much afford got put into little details; they thought about everything and make you feel very welcome!
Very helpful and easy check-in (we have been running late).
Definitely 5 stars!

Unable to stay
Unfortunately the air conditioner in the hut was not working and obviously had not been working for some time. Due to the extreme heat and humidity we could not complete our stay and had to leave. Owners refunded our money.
Gorgeous cottage with breathtaking views. One of the cleanest places we have stayed in. The jacuzzi was a big highlight overlooking the ocean.

Paradise in the rainforest
What an amazing place to stay! We so enjoyed our 3 nights here. It’s so well thought out and has everything you need to provide a total get away from it all. Really clean and comfortable. The amazing outside kitchen and hot tub are really fantastic. We also managed to walk down to the beach for sunrise which was awesome, then back for fresh coffee and breakfast cooked on the BBQ. Great memories. Thanks Gigi and Andrea!
