Amazing property with friendly and helpful staff. We really enjoyed our stay here and was fantastic for a few days relaxing and exploring the area up to Daintree and Port Douglas. We spent two nights eating in the restaurant and the food was top class. If I had any improvement it would be to heat the pool as it was freezing at this time of the year so we only used it for a quick dip and where the ones I saw use it.

The property is amazing. Bungalow style rooms scattered through the rainforest, connected by very walkable paved paths. The staff was great. The food was good. But it is the property itself that makes this place special.

Absolutely loved our stay at Thala Beach. Such a relaxing getaway in a wonderful location. Our private bungalow was perfect and we spent most of our stay exploring the properties many walks, lookouts and beach, and thanks again for organising the day tour to Cape Tribulation for us, it was fantastic! Can't wait to come again, and already sending others your way!

8/10 Very good

Loved being away from any built environment, nestled amongst the trees, ocean and cliffs, lots of birds and feeling of being in nature. The restaurant is a stunning location but the food is hit and miss, limited menu, and expensive. Staff are warm and friendly. The resort has a slightly worn fee about it. But if you’re looking for a slightly rustic eco retreat vibe, it’s great.

10/10 Exceptional

My partner and I had an amazing time! We loved walking around the property and exploring the trails. You just can’t beat having a private beach and your own private little sanctuary amongst the trees. Truly spectacular. The staff were extremely kind and attentive. We had Ray as our waiter both times we dined at the restaurant for dinner and he was great. While the menu is limited, everything was delicious. I will say that if you are looking for a pristine resort with immediate pool side service, this may not be the place for you. It is a long walk from the beach to get a cold beer! But if you like the silence of nature and people that appreciate it…then this place certainly is worth a visit.
