All about that bridge

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 weeks ago

Silky oaks is an exceptionally beautiful place. Cosy river- or treetop houses, comfy hammocks, outdoor bathtubs, lush vegetation, tranquil pool, ambient restaurant and superb food/ wine. I really, really loved it. But then there’s the bridge. Those coming here when it doesn’t rain may not even notice. If it does rain, however - life revolves around the river tides and whether the bridge can be crossed or not. You may get stuck inside or outside, tours may get cancelled, and the best you can do is go to the gym or hike - where? - to the bridge:), as the uphill hikes simply get too slippery/ dangerous in the rainy weather. It’s about 2.5km from Silky Oaks, a lovely flat hike by the way, but for this room rate - it is just too much left to chance. I am giving 4 stars (or circles) for the place itself, and with special thanks to Vanessa and Michelle at the reception desk and to Aron at the spa for excellent customer service when weather was getting in the way. But really, the management should do something about that bridge.

Magnificent Silky Oaks

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

From the moment we arrived at Silky Oaks Lodge, we felt at home. You are personally escorted to your private cabin and all the amenities (and there are SO MANY) are carefully explained by your host. You honestly feel as though you have left the rest of the world behind as you totally unwind and relax at this magnificent property. We had a Riverhouse cabin, and the views and sounds of the river are among the most relaxing I have ever experienced. The hammock was my afternoon retreat with a book and a snooze! The outdoor bathtub was so special - you truly felt as though you were bathing miles away, deep in the rainforest. I had an exquisite 2-hour spa treatment. Be certain to carve out some time for a spa treatment (or two). We experienced this magnificent property as part of an organized tour, but we quickly decided a return trip here on a future visit to Australia is a must. Ben, Glen and the entire team at Silky Oaks are the epitome of what exceptional service looks and feels like. Thank you for making this such a special visit!

Not enough superlatives

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

I can’t speak more highly of the Silky Oaks experience. From the moment the manager met my at the car with an umbrella to the cool towels and champagne in the lounge the service goes above and beyond and is so friendly. The location is stunning, the rooms great, food amazing. I can’t wait to go back, Iay not be able to holiday anywhere else after experiencing Sulky Oaks.

Immersive rainforest lodge

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

We wish we would have stayed longer. The property is beautiful, really immersive in the rainforest. The staff go above and beyond to make sure you are happy and have everything you need. I wish the alcohol was included as it was a steep charge but worth it to stay in such a beautiful place.
