Daintree Beach Resort has seen many exciting changes over the last 18 months and there are more to come. Our private tropical oasis, on the doorstep of the Daintree Rainforest has seen many guests return year after year to enjoy this perfect piece of paradise. With our exciting changes, we look forward to seeing the resort evolve from a sleepy caravan park, to a vibrant resort style property with a variety of accommodation options, food and beverage offerings, new and improved facilities plus a new resort style pool and beach bar which we are hoping to confirm in 2025. In May 2024, we completed the first of our glamping pavilions. These pavilions have allowed us to provide our first step of offering a variety of accommodation options for our discerning guests. This project received tourism grant funding from the Australian Government, which has allowed us to expand on our original concept and has made the glamping pavilions really quite special. Our amenity buildings have undertaken a fresh makeover which now provides state of the art washing machines and dryers with tap and go payment options - no need for coins. A vending machine for that late afternoon or evening snack, immaculately clean bathrooms and a camp kitchen with shared facilities for those campers who like to do their own thing. Our Food & Beverage van is now open and offers a variety of food choices. Open daily from 12pm to 8.00pm (season dependent) we invite our guests and locals to come and enjoy our beautiful park setting. With a multitude of accommodation options for the most discerning guest, Daintree Beach Resort is becoming the destination, not just a place to stay.

Daintree Beach Resort has seen many exciting changes over the last 18 months and there are more to come. Our private tropical oasis, on the doorstep of the Daintree Rainforest has seen many guests return year after year to enjoy this perfect piece of paradise. With our exciting changes, we look forward to seeing the resort evolve from a sleepy caravan park, to a vibrant resort style property with a variety of accommodation options, food and beverage offerings, new and improved facilities plus a new resort style pool and beach bar which we are hoping to confirm in 2025. In May 2024, we completed the first of our glamping pavilions. These pavilions have allowed us to provide our first step of offering a variety of accommodation options for our discerning guests. This project received tourism grant funding from the Australian Government, which has allowed us to expand on our original concept and has made the glamping pavilions really quite special. Our amenity buildings have undertaken a fresh makeover which now provides state of the art washing machines and dryers with tap and go payment options - no need for coins. A vending machine for that late afternoon or evening snack, immaculately clean bathrooms and a camp kitchen with shared facilities for those campers who like to do their own thing. Our Food & Beverage van is now open and offers a variety of food choices. Open daily from 12pm to 8.00pm (season dependent) we invite our guests and locals to come and enjoy our beautiful park setting. With a multitude of accommodation options for the most discerning guest, Daintree Beach Resort is becoming the destination, not just a place to stay.
