I recently had the pleasure of staying at The Epiphyte BnB, and it was truly an exceptional experience. From the moment I arrived, Matt, the host, was incredibly hospitable and made me feel right at home. His warmth and friendliness set the tone for my entire stay. The BnB itself is very comfortable, peaceful, and impeccably clean. The rooms are cozy and well-maintained, providing a perfect retreat after a day of exploring. The serene surroundings add to the charm, making it an ideal place to unwind and relax. One of the highlights of my stay was Matt's invaluable advice on local activities and attractions. He recommended the best places to visit, ensuring I made the most of my trip. His insights were spot on, and I had some amazing experiences thanks to his suggestions. Breakfast at The Epiphyte BnB was a delightful experience. The food was delicious, and it offered a perfect opportunity to meet and hang out with other guests. Sharing stories and getting to know fellow travelers added an extra layer of enjoyment to my stay. If you're looking for a calm and relaxing getaway, I highly recommend The Epiphyte BnB. It truly felt like home, and I can't wait to return. Matt's exceptional hospitality and the welcoming atmosphere make it a standout choice for anyone seeking a memorable and tranquil experience.

My stay at Epiphyte BnB was one of the highlights of my Australian adventure so far. Coming back from an exciting day of jungle exploration to relaxing in a hammock with my favourite book listening to the rain was just the best feeling. The hand-built property is a welcoming and open environment with a focus on green and sustainable-living and is perfectly located for those seeking to explore the rainforest and cape Tribulation. I very much enjoyed having great conversations with the host, Matt - whom is very welcoming and knowledgeable about the area having come to Daintree to build Epiphyte many years ago. Overall, I would highly recommend staying at Epiphyte BnB if you’re looking for the perfect retreat to base yourself whilst exploring the Daintree rainforest.

This place has beautiful surroundings and made me feel relaxed the moment walk-in. It is close to the Daintree Discovery Center and was a good base for exploring the Daintree and Cape Tribulation area. The host Matt knows everything in the area and made helpful itinerary suggestions. Would highly recommend this place.

Matt’s place is unreal - beautifully nesteld within the daintree rainforest ! We stayed in the cottage just 50 m from the main house and absolutely loved it. Saw a cassowary walk through the property and enjoy the fruit trees. The breakfast is delicious with all the different fruits and we enjoyed spending time with Matt and his friends over a glass of wine. Thank you so much for having us :) we will be back !

This is a good place to stay to visit the Daintree Forest and Cape Tribulation. This part of Australia is off the grid and lightly populated. Being in the tropics,, it has a rainy season so be aware it can rain a lot during the Australian summer with few people visiting during that time. We had 3 days of sun so we were able to take advantage of the rainforest discover center and board walks without rain as well as empty beaches. Also be aware that this is crocoodile country so you can not go into the water at all except for two swimming holes in rivers.

Epiphyte B&B has some nice lodges with an outdoor kitchen surrounded by rainforest. Breakfast is offered in a pleasant, large open building. The breakfast is luxurious and consists for amatory part from fresh fruit. In addition there is locally produced jam. Everything offered with the sound of rainforest. De not forget to cross the street and have a nocturnal bushwalk.

Matt is so knowledgeable about the area and offers great advice! It’s a beautiful location and convenient to reach all the Daintree. Matt has done an amazing job building an eco conscious retreat. The water is all rainfall and the electricity is solar. Neither was lacking quality. Thank you for having us! It’s easy to book directly with Matt.
