The resort is situated on a hillside with an amazing view over Daintree Forrest. If you stay in the orchid suite then you have a garden with a view over this beautiful area. It’s calm and you hear birds chirping from early morning to late evening. The room we had was big. You fit two people with suitcases easily. Very beautiful and romantic decorated room with a comfortable bed, also romantically decorated. You have a fan that is perfectly located so it’s giving fresh wind on your legs more that’s on the head (we liked that). You also have aircon if you need. You will need a car to stay here. By car it’s 15 min down to Port Douglas where you find lots of restaurants and bars. Andre will give you recommendations for where to eat. Andre also makes the best breakfast with different fruits, toast, yaourt, jam, cereals and more all tasting really good. You also can enjoy the swimming pool with the same view over the Forrest. Bring a beer from the minibar and take a swim and then enjoy your beer in the very nice lounge bed beside the pool. This place is not by the beach but had a perfect location for those who loves a quiet place that has everything for a romantic stay with a loved one. We would recommend this place to all of you who appreciate small romantic and nice details in the room and in the place where you stay. And that likes to have a more personal feeling of the service you can get. Andre helps you to plan your days with snorkelling, guided tours etc. All with local people that he knows and that all gives the best service. If all this sound good to you, book your stay for some days, it’s...

From the moment we arrived at Mai Tai Resort, we were transported into a world of tranquility and luxury. Nestled in the lush rainforest of North Queensland, this boutique retreat offers breathtaking views, impeccable service, and an ambiance of pure relaxation.
What truly sets this place apart, however, is the incredible hospitality of our host, Andre. From the warmest of welcomes to his wealth of local knowledge, Andre goes above and beyond to ensure every guest has an unforgettable stay. His attention to detail, genuine kindness, and effortless charm make you feel more like a cherished friend than just a visitor. Whether it’s offering personalized recommendations, sharing fascinating stories, or making sure you have everything you need, Andre’s presence is the heart and soul of Mai Tai Resort.
The property itself is an oasis of serenity, with beautifully designed Balinese-style villas that are spacious, immaculately clean, and filled with charm. Waking up to the sounds of nature and enjoying a morning coffee on the private terrace was an experience in itself. The pool area, with its breathtaking panoramic views of the Daintree Rainforest and Coral Sea, is the perfect place to unwind after a day of adventure.
If you’re looking for an intimate, peaceful escape away from the crowds, Mai Tai Resort is an absolute must-visit. And with Andre’s exceptional hospitality, your stay will be nothing short of magical.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommend – we can’t wait to return!

Read moreThis has been our 4th stay at Mai Tai Resort. Since we have had our beautiful Wedding here in 2013 we come and stay every year.
Mai Tai is a very unique and lovely decorated Resort with lots of attention to Detail. The Rooms are very specious and absolutely clean. We always try and book in advance to secure one of the rooms with the beautiful outdoor shower overlooking the rainforest.
In our recent visit we have noticed a few amazing upgrades to the Resort such as the the timber pool verandah overlooking the beautiful mountain side and a sneaky peek onto the Reef on the right and the Daintree to the left. The Breakfast Area has also been extended with an additional sitting Area were you can enjoy the same amazing view as from the Pool.
The two Hosts are both beautiful friendly people that make our stay at the Resort so very special each time we get to come.
BEST TIP: Andre and Anthony are a great source of information regarding Tours and what to do in Port Douglas, the Daintree, Mossman or Cairns. They are very helpful and even take over the bookings for you. If required they will provide you with extra towels to get to the Reef and book your Pick up. And if you have no idea where to go for Dinner or Lunch ask and you will get an honest and reliable review of the best places around.
Thank you Andre & Anthony for another very special and memorable holiday. I am already looking forward to...
