Licuala Lodge Queensland Australia

Licuala Lodge is an award winning timber pole home located in Mission Beach, which is in the heart of Queensland’s Wet Tropics, where the rainforest meets the beach. Mission Beach is an unspoilt oasis of paradise situated halfway between Cairns and Townsville, and is one of the closest mainland points to the Outer Barrier Reef. The area is home to the regal Southern Cassowary – a magnificent bird, but unfortunately also an endangered species.

The lodge is set in two and a half acres of world heritage rainforest. Guest accommodation is separate to the main house, each unit has its own ensuite and own private veranda overlooking the lush tropical gardens. There is a magnificent waterfall swimming pool with beach entry, open for your enjoyment day and night.

A fully cooked breakfast or a great tropical breakfast (the choice is yours) is served on the upper veranda of the main house. There is a large guest lounge with television, DVD player, library, games, tour desk and best of all a magic fridge always full of cold drinks and beer. Drinks at the lodge are complimentary (tea, coffee, soft drinks and beer).

If you want peace and tranquillity, then they can be found here – no traffic noise, no aircraft noise – ahhh bliss!!

Mission Beach also offers plenty of activities for the more energetic. Scuba diving, skydiving, white water rafting and sea kayaks are on offer. Also fishing, golf, cycling and seven or eight excellent rainforest walks.

And if you can’t bear to be away from the computer, then Internet access is available. All your laundry needs can be met, and children aged five to 17 are welcome here – but remember to take them with you as you leave. The Lodge is not suitable for children under the age of five.
