Plan your Cape Tribulation visit well. Roads are treacherous, safe swimming and camping locations limited. Facilities away from accommodation nonexistent including mobile coverage. It is a wilderness area.

The hosts were very accommodating. This is a location to rest and reflect or equally base your Cape Trib adventure in modern and eco-friendly digs. Full size fridge, cooking on BBQ and microwave. Good WiFi and mobile reception on site

Nothing we were very happy.

Beautiful surroundings so tropical and quiet. The balcony was amazing. The facilities were very clean and spacious.

Amazing setting beneath Mt Sorrow. Beautifully landscaped on edge of the rainforest. Quiet, blissful and luxurious. The hosts were lovely, very helpful and had thought of everything their guests could possibly need. The kitchen was very well stocked and equipped. The huge daybed on the deck was a special treat.

MIST is beautifully set in the heart of the rainforest, offering a peaceful escape surrounded by lush palms and natural beauty. The cabins, while not of the highest build quality, are comfortable and provide a great view of the surrounding rainforest. During our stay, we did experience some disappointment as the air conditioning in our cabin wasn’t working, and there didn’t seem to be a clear solution at the time. Lady Lilin, the host, was warm and welcoming at first, but her presence occasionally felt a little too involved, which slightly impacted the sense of privacy we were hoping for. Overall, our stay was enjoyable, and we’ve always loved coming to Cape Tribulation over the years. This was our first time at MIST, and while it’s a good place to stay, we feel there’s room for improvement - especially considering the rates charged. With a few refinements, it could truly shine.

We wish we could stay longer.

We enjoyed our stay at the Mist at Cape Tribulation tremendously. The eco-luxe pavilion we stayed in was well-designed, clean and close to the amenities such as restaurants, Madja, Kulki boardwalks, and Thornton’s Beach lookout. In the evening, we also enjoyed sitting on the day-bed at the verandah, observing the sights and sounds of the floral and fauna of the Daintree Rainforest. Lilian and Kim were excellent hosts — hospitable, warm and friendly.

A beautiful, well appointed, clean and comfortable self contained place to stay in the Daintree Rainforest. From the privacy of our deck on the end pavilion where we stayed, we had wonderful views of palms, rainforest and Mount Sorrow. We had everything we needed and loved our two nights here and would recommend staying at Mist.

Nothing.

The room has everything you need. The bed was super comfortable, and the bathroom nice and roomy. The check-in was great, Lilian was very welcoming and gave us lots of recommendations. Everything was clean, stylish, and fully equipped. I highly recommend staying at Mist at Cape Tribulation, what a gorgeous place to spend some quiet, quality time.

Suggest a standard lamp (upright lamp) in the living area for extra light.

Host Lilian was brilliant, non-intrusive but a great host, such a delightful experience thank you

Was all above what was expected.

It was kept so clean and comfortable. Super quiet and deep in nature which was great. Has a bbq for cooking out on the deck in the evening or day time. The hosts are lovely too.

The sofa wasn’t very comfortable

Beautiful quiet location, spacious accommodation, supremely comfortable bed, great barbecue and Lilian is an absolutely delightful host.

Beautiful setting and excellent accommodation. Being raised slightly on a hillside means it is nice and light rather than being buried in the forest. We visited other places we were considering staying and we were so pleased we stayed here. Easy access to everywhere on the Cape. Very good value when compared to some other properties. Lillian is an excellent host.

I loved how helpful the hosts were to help find food for self catering or for dining experience. She was very insightful and was attentive. Very thoughtful and sent a welcoming message that completely helped this trip. I was pleasantly surprised at how accommodating (coffee and tea and pillow options) . It was very aesthetically pleasing and comfortable. I really enjoyed this location. A/C and fans worked like a charm and it was perfectly cool and we went at very high temps.

Not many places to hang anything. Nowhere to hang wet clothes to dry. Need hooks inside and some sort of clothes rack or hooks outside for items to dry. No hairdryer. No gas in BBQ but this was quickly rectified with sincere apologies.

Location. Comfortable bed. Great deck area. Kitchen facilities.

We liked everything

Loved the cleanliness, the gardens, the air-conditioning and how simply private it was.

This is quite remote and its not possible to leave without driving. For us, this was perfect for a 2 night stay but if you are looking for something lively, this isn't going to be for you.

We loved our stay here in October 2024! It was the perfect balance of comfort and being off grid. The owner was very friendly and had thought of everything you might need for a self catering stay. We particularly loved the patio with our own BBQ and chill out zone. Owner also very helpful if you need recommendations for local attractions.

Not enough light inside the Pavillion at night. Difficult to read.

The location was beautiful and relaxing.. Lilian was a friendly and helpful host. It was lovely to sit on the deck of the Pavillion in the late afternoon. Enjoyed the bird calls in the morning when waking. Nice places to eat nearby.
