Special Events, Weddings, Conferences, Retreats

Daintree Escape Bed and Breakfast Bungalows is a unique and natural venue for intimate weddings, functions and retreats located in the heart of the Daintree, Tropical North Queensland. 

Tropical North Queensland is a stunningly beautiful and unspoilt part of Australia,  where the endless green of the Daintree Rainforest collides with the blue of the Great Barrier Reef,  naturally creating an exotic beauty of its own. What better place to host your wedding or event than between 2 world heritage areas, the amazing Great Barrier Reef and the mystical Daintree Rainforest.  Daintree Escape is ideally located only 1 ½ hours north of Cairns and only 45 minutes north of Port Douglas.

Daintree Escape is a romantic Accommodation nestled in the heart of the enchanting Daintree Village. The retreat is set amidst lush tropical gardens with many intimate garden areas to host your ceremony under a canopy of rainforest trees. Experience a tropical Queensland reception by the pool or choose from many other unique locations nearby to enjoy your special day.

From an intimate, informal affair superbly catered for in our tropical gardens for 2 or a formal occasion at the Daintree Eco Lodge for 50, we will assist you in creating a memorable experience for you and your guests.   

Enjoy the enchanting surroundings of the Daintree Rainforest from the comfort of your own bungalow. After the wedding retreat to the privacy of your accommodation and then go exploring and experience the best the Far North has to offer, the World Heritage Daintree Rainforest and the Great Barrier Reef.  All of Tropical North’s Queensland's top attractions are within easy reach of the Daintree Village.
