My partner and I took my parents up to stay at Daintree Magic for two nights mid week in June 2013.
After researching accommodation in the Daintree area we found that Daintree Magic was very good value for money and still provided quite luxurious accommodation right in the middle of the Daintree rainforest.
The owner Kate was very friendly, helpful and accommodating to our needs.
The place was easy to find and is a convenient 15 minute drive from the Daintree river ferry, and very close to the Cow Bay pub. However, it is still far enough away from everything that it provides a delightfully secluded retreat.
The house itself is an old home which has been lovingly renovated and restored. There was plenty of space for 4 adults and the spacious deck overlooking the rainforest was perfect for afternoon drinks and dinner, with a view to the ocean. There was a large bathtub on the balcony along with a hammock, I don't think I could possibly have been more relaxed!!
The bedrooms are roomy and the beds were really comfortable, we all had excellent rest. All of the facilities in the home were in good working order, however it should be noted that in the Daintree region power and water need to be conserved so non-essential items like a toaster, hair dryer etc are a no no. But who needs a hair dryer in the middle of the rainforest!!
The home was lovey and very comfortable, surrounded by the gorgeous Daintree rainforest, only disappointment was that we didn't get to see a Cassowary!
Would definitely recommend this place to others.

This beautiful house is just lovely to spend time in. The views are spectacular, the beach is a short stroll away, it's clean and comfortable. The perfect place to forget about your troubles and unwind.

Our stay at Daintree Magic was the most relaxing holiday we have had in years. Nestled in the rainforest and overlooking the ocean, this house couldn't be in a better spot.
Very happy with the whole experience, we will be returning.

This is the ABSOLUTE definition of tranquility... Beautiful house with all the amenities you would have in your own house. Only neighbours are the birds and occasional monitor lizard which are fasinating to watch from the large balcony. Large bath on balcony perfect to sit in with a glass of bubbles. Cow Bay beach only a short stroll away, great views of the ocean from the balcony too. Would definetly recommend to ANYONE.. Can't wait to go back..... Thanks..
