"The house is modern, attractive and well maintained. I particularly liked all the energy saving features, which did not detract at all from the quality of services such as hot water and lighting."

Holiday house

Thornton Beach is Daintree's best kept secret, just 10 minutes south of the visitor hub of Cape Tribulation. Thornton Beach House is nestled between the Coral Sea and the Daintree World Heritage National Park. It is the only holiday accommodation at Thornton Beach and is only a 20 metre stroll to the beach. It's a fully screened, open plan house and with tiles throughout, it gives the house a cool spacious feel. It is well situated, being centrally located to both Cape Tribulation and Cow Bay, with their restaurants, bars, boardwalks and fresh water creeks for swimming. There are several tours in the area, including night and day guided rainforest walks, 1/2 day and 2 day sea kayaking tours, horseriding, jungle surfing through the rainforest canopy, exotic fruit tasting, Great Barrier Reef tours, fishing tours, crocodile spotting tours and the list goes on.
