Wait a While in the Daintree is a stunning pole framed timber house offering private and secluded accommodation for up to 6 guests right in the heart of the Daintree Rainforest, and only 600 metres from the picturesque Cow Bay Beach. Restaurants and cafes are within easy driving distance.
The Daintree-Cape Tribulation region lays claim to being the only spot on the planet where two World Heritage areas meet - The Great Barrier Reef and the North Queensland Wet Tropics. Wait a While offers the perfect place to relax and enjoy both of these special World Heritage areas.
