We loved staying here for three nights and were so sorry to leave. The beautiful peaceful setting and comfortable spacious accommodation was a treat. We enjoyed the excellent exotic fruit breakfasts and locally roasted fresh coffee. I would definitely return to this place and stay longer next time.

Had a fantastic stay at Cape Trib Farm from start to finish. The owners, Jeremy and Merran, were fantastic and extremely helpful, from giving us great advice prior to our arrival about what to do, where to eat and what to expect in the area, as well as accommodating squeezing us into their fruit-tasting experience given we were arriving at the farm just at the last minute before it started. The fruit tasting was a great introduction to the entire experience of staying there, sampling 10+ exotic and really unique tropical fruits which all were a first for us. The tasting was followed by a tour of the farm which was super interesting, and Merran is so passionate about the farm and it's unique products that it really made for a truly great experience. The tasting and tour was followed by a delightful 2-night stay in their absolutely brilliant cottages, with a unique setup of a full living/dining/cooking area outdoors while enjoying a very comfortable sleep in the well-appointed indoor bedroom/bathroom. They've done a great job of creating a little lap of luxury in the middle of the rainforest with a great mix of comfort (flyscreens/ceiling fan/aircon - excellent!) but also outdoor living to enjoy the atmosphere. Also enjoyed the immense exotic fruit plates we got each morning, which were a tasty way to start the day along with fresh ground coffee and continental breakfast - all prepared alfresco. Hands down the best place to say in Cape Trib and a great experience - you're in great hands with Merran and Jeremy (and Lucy the dog too...!)

We had an amazing Fruit Tasting and were amazed about the fruits and knowledge we gained through that experience. The Owners were really nice and accommodating. We can highly recommend the Fruit Tasting while in Cape Trib.

We did the fruit tasting tour and absolutely loved it! We got to try 10-11 fruits, most of which were new to us and now are on a list of our favorites. This was one of the most anticipated activities of our trip, and it did not disappoint in the slightest. Jeremy (I think? the son:) was extremely knowledgeable about the fruits we tasted and others that he taught about, and learning about his family's farming history in the area was fascinating. Going on a tour of their beautiful farm after the tasting was a fun added bonus. 10/10 would highly recommend and would definitely go again if we're in the area!

After the tour, our guide gave some advice about things to do in the area, and thank you for the recommendation for the Madja Boardwalk! We'd only planned on Dubuji but added Madja to our list after your rec, and it was very unique and special.

It was a perfect experience. We learned so so much about ten magnificient tropical fruits and what it took to grow them in the wet tropics. The fruits we got to taste were weird and delicious and amazing. We are from a tropical country and yet four of the ten fruits we had for the very first time.

Cape Trib family members are passionate and inspirating. If you’re lucky enough to book a spot, please do it. We enjoyed every moment and trust that you will too.

Fantastic stay in the heart of the Daintree Rainforest. We had a wonderful time at this peaceful fruit farm nestled in the Daintree Rainforest. Our cabin was small but well-maintained, with a spacious veranda perfect for relaxing. Each morning, we enjoyed a delicious breakfast featuring exotic fruits picked straight from the plantation. Our host, Sam, was incredibly friendly, he gave us great tips for exploring the area and even explained the many unfamiliar fruit varieties grown on the farm. A truly relaxing and unique farm stay experience!

Fruit tasting was amazing, i thought i knew alot of fruits, but boy was i wrong! Had a blast!
To the Farm: you might want to think about not using paper towels but maby normal towels that are wet or maybe a bowl of water and a normal towel! I had to use 6 or 7 paper towels and my hands were still sticky because of those amazing fruits!😆
