Crocodylus is a truly unique hostel resort situated at Cow Bay, between the World Heritage rainforest areas of the Daintree and Cape Tribulation National Parks and the Great Barrier Reef.

The resort is hidden under a tall stand of some of the remaining lowland rainforest on the Queensland tropical coast. Crocodylus Village adjoins the Baileys Creek section of Cape Tribulation National Park. A giant strangler fig tree provides a dramatic centrepiece to the village.

On arrival, guests are given an orientation talk and provided with maps and directions of the local area.

The rainforest canopy remains undisturbed, as the safari tent style accommodation huts have been delicately built up off the ground and spaced out amongst the dense tropical rainforest. From the comfort of your hut you can feel part of the rainforest, listening to and watching the wildlife of the forest.

The Jungle Restaurant serves fabulous large home style meals. Start the day with a cooked breakfast, muesli or a special pancake. The dinner menu varies daily with always a special choice for vegetarians.

There is a small well stocked bar and a landscaped swimming pool with a sunbaking area, in close proximity to the central living area, where you will find a pool table and dart boards.

There are also internet facilities onsite for those needing to access their email, or wanting to access the web during their stay.

Being in an isolated area, Crocodylus generates its own electricity. The resort is powered by generators, which run 24 hours per day. However, you may wish to bring a flashlight with you for night walks in the rainforest.

A coin-operated laundry is available, as well as, a fully equipped self catering kitchen, a coin pay telephone and a small general store.

Children are welcome and the atmosphere is friendly and casual.
