    Not a thing, a truly unique experience. Having been to many places between Townsville and Timbuktu, the Crocodylus experience is up there with the best of them.

    Loved the fact that we were living inside a jungle. We saw a juvenile Cassowary within 10 mins of our arrival. The staff, especially Susie, we're terrific. Would definitely recommend this experience. The cacophony of avian sounds at dawn and dusk will stay with my son and I forever.

    Fridges need some cleaning though..

    The place is in the forest - it says it all. Forget your phone and enjoy the tranquility. The place is easy to find, clear instructions provided, rooms only have beds, but it says in description - no furniture, shared facilities are clean, plenty of cooking pans and pots, but need to bring own crockery. Dining area is beautiful, power goes off at 10:30pm and it is just you and the forest. Loved it!

    There was a walking path at Crocydlus but it was quite close to the road, the only thing I wish there was is more of a walking path deeper in the forest to search for animals and insects.

    The common space was great with lots of seating and interesting books about Australian animals and plants. Good kitchen facilities with all you may need, as well as decently priced meals and coffees for purchase at their cafe that looked and smelled good. The sleeping facilities were also very spacious and comfortable, being right in the rainforest, immersed in nature was my favourite part!

    We loved the ambience of the place and it being in the jungle. We loved the cabins. We loved the immersion of being in the oldest rain forest in the world. We loved waking in the morning and hearing the jungle come alive. We loved the night walk with Matthew - who was really knowledgeable. He showed and explained to us the many amazing plants that grew there and many amazing stories. The staff were really friendly and welcoming. The food on offer was also great. We loved it there.

    It was a little chilly at night, since we visited in winter. Fortunately, we had extra beds in the room, so could use those extra blankets in our beds.

    We loved the forest atmosphere. Were very lucky and even saw an adult cassowary passing close to our room, in the morning, and a juvenile, sort of lost, wandering around. We also recommend the night walk. Fantastic experience!

    Not for people who don’t want to see spiders!

    An amazing opportunity to stay in the middle of the rainforest. The rooms are basic but that’s what you are paying for. Wonderful to hear the sounds of the jungle through the night.

    I thought it was a little overpriced for what it was. The cabin walls are very thin and I could hear the person in the neighbouring cabin snoring.

    It's a beautiful opportunity to break away in nature and reset. Showers were good.

    All in all, no complaint. Maybe a bit more space to put things on in the hut.

    Basic, but that's all you need for a jungly experience, quiet except for sounds from the jungle, good food, very friendly people (staff), relaxed. Even a pool that invites for a cool swim

    Our double bed was too short for my 6 foot 2 inches husband and he had to lie diagonally, which meant we both had poor sleep. I assume the bed had a footboard in order to accommodate the mosquito net, but it meant the bed was not long enough for his legs. Be warned: there is no soundproofing between rooms!

    Loved the rainforest location. Was fun and novel to stay 2 nights. Nearby Cow Bay is stunning. Good shared facilities (great shower, nice pool), and tasty home-cooked meals.
