Just 20 meters from the soft sands of Cape Tribulation beach, this 3.5-star resort occupies seven acres of tropical paradise, inviting guests into an experience that seamlessly fuses indoor elegance with wild outdoor beauty. The first moment you step into the lobby, you're greeted by the intoxicating scent of rainforest foliage and the soothing sounds of nature, complemented by design elements that echo the surrounding landscape - wooden beams, vibrant colors, and local art subtly establishing an immediate connection with the environment. The allure continues at the Tides Restaurant & Bar, where the ocean views jog your appetite and the diverse menu of locally sourced seafood, kangaroo, and hearty salads tantalizes taste buds while dining poolside. Notably, the resort features a range of amenities, including a full-service spa for those seeking pampering, a terrace perfect for sunset appreciation, and a shared kitchen for community dining. Venture further for activities; snorkeling, canoeing, and access to hiking trails embody the natural spirit of this bewitching destination.
