Descripción
We are a family run eco lodge in the Daintree Rainforest ) providing adventurers with a jungle experience like no other. Set on 21acres of rainforest our place allows our guests and you to sleep right under the rainforest canopy experiencing the jungle up close and personal in a very friendly low key environment.
Digital detox and being at one with nature is our thing, with board games and chatting to each other our major evening pastimes. Morning we do a little bit of housekeeping and kitchen work in our cafe then head off to the pristine beaches and swimming holes for some chill out time. In the evening we host our guests.Tipos de ayuda y oportunidades de aprendizaje

You will live right in the Daintree Rainforest, the oldest rainforest in the world and learn all about the trees and its inhabitants. It is an awesome area to explore with lots of activities both free and paid to take part in. Imagine swimming in tropical river holes, walking pristine beaches, hanging in the rainforest listening to the jungle vibes. Your language and social skills will also get a work out here chatting and engaging with all our lovely visitors who come from all over the world. Also a great place to get some exposure to different cultures as you engage with 'real aussie characters' who have chosen to live in this amazing part of the world.

We need people to help with basic housekeeping, dishwashing and a little bit of rainforest trimming here and there. No experience is necessary just a 'can do' attitude and a bright and cheery disposition.
During our low season we usually have a minimum 15hrs a week available and during the high season we have up to 20hrs a week available if you are willing. Hours of work are generally morning 9.30-12.30ish and evening 6-8ish. During low season we don't have paid employment available, we supply you with accommodation and food.
There is lots to do up here - paid activities like the Discovery Centre, icecream factories, are within walking distance. Other activities like crocodile cruises, reef trips, horseriding are too far away for walking so you would have to organise a lift with guests or arrange some other way to get there.Idiomas

Algo más...
To get to us you will need to catch a bus from Cairns (approx $50 each way) or bring your own car, we are 2.5hrs drive north of Cairns, 1hr north of Port Douglas. There are no shops up here, just lots of rainforest, beaches and friendly locals. Prefer people to stay at least two weeks

Unfortunately due to illness, travel logistics etc. I had to change the length of my stay to a week however Sally and Steve were more than understanding.

Steve was incredibly knowledgeable about the land and showed us cassowaries, introduced us to star gazing and hand picked delicious fruit for us to try from their land. Sally was patient, very welcoming and helped us plan trips around the local area such as crocodile tours and Great Barrier Reef snorkelling tours… read more

I stayed one month in Crocodilus and it was amazing experience! I didn’t have car so it can be hard sometimes to explore around but I found nice guests to take me to nice spots. Also, a coworker Craig invited us to go around so I could see lots of beautiful places.
The work is pretty chill. I helped in the… read more

It was my first experience with Workaway and I couldn't hope for more, the place in itself is amazing and Sally and Steve were super nice. There's plenty of things to do nearby during the day, the guests are very nice, and the work is good.

We recommend him to anyone needing help and he was a real pleasure to host
We would have her back in a second
We would have him back anytime and were very sad to see him go
This experience in the Daintree, my first experience in Australia actually was fucking truly amazing. But not only because of the place which is pretty incredible but mostly because of the people I've met there.
Daryl and Narelle, Mom and Dad as I used to call them all the time, were my Daintree family for the month I spent… read more
Able to do hard labour as well as service to customers.
Florian learns through observation, which is a bonus when you need someone to just jump in and help.
When we were faced with an emergency Florian was able to jump in and help with ease.
A wonderful experience with this young man and we were sad to see him leave.
The work was enjoyable and only 2 hours in the morning plus some washing up in the evening.
We were always well fed with delicious food.
We enjoyed hanging out with other Workaways staying at the same time.
Its an interesting and beautiful… read more
Sally and Steve's place was the first place I went in Australia and I couldn't have asked for a better place to start! The nature is unbelievably beautiful, Sally and Steve were so kind and helpful and I met the most amazing people there!!

We would recommend them to anyone and were sorry to see them go
Thanks Sally and Steeve for this amazing time in cow bay !
Would recommend her to anyone
I had a lovely time in the Daintree Rainforest and at this time of the year it was very relaxed - Still Sally offered me to stay longer if I wanted to, even though there were more workers going to come, which was super nice. There was a big feeling of trust giving in the workers which made me feel… read more
We were 3 volunteers at the time who spent the mornings working together and the afternoons exploring together.

Excellent place to learn more about the fascinating Daintree Rainforest and logout yourself.
The job is not hard and does not require any hostel competences.
I spend 2 great weeks here and met other nice helpers :)
She was a delight to have around and really embraced the vibes at our place in the jungle, happily getting along with everybody while working away.
Love to have her back anytime and we wish her well in her travels and hopes and… read more
