Welcome to Mungumby Lodge
We are a privately run independent business in our 21st year. Guests realise the difference as soon as they arrive. There are plenty of things to do and see beyond the commercial staged tourist offerings found elsewhere. Operating by appointment, guests immediately feel right at home surrounded by unique unforgettable experiences that the region is famous for.
Check out recent guest reviews on this site "Guest Reviews" page or "in Google!" One is never going to be the right fit for everyone, we actively seek genuine feed back from clients to drive our business forward. Don't miss out, and book ahead of arriving in the region to ensure your place is ready in the rainforest!
Mungumby Lodge BnB is located in the stunning rainforest mountains just
before and south of Cooktown, north of Rossville, Port Douglas or
Cairns. We offer quality private accommodation for travellers seeking to
stay in a BnB lodge with use of the homestead facilities, waterfalls,
pool and a nature experience rather than just a cabin.
Our property is
located adjacent to World Heritage Rainforest and at the apex of three
very distinct landscapes as well as cultures, we are accessible and open
year round. Our cabins offer private ensuite bathrooms and are clean,
rustic, and spacious. We offer a lounge area and pool at the homestead
as an extension to your room. Each cabin is located separately within
the enclosed gardens with a great outlook. We have the Aussie fire pit
area and guest BBQ plus microwave for self-catering in the evenings. We
are a BnB so offer breakfast 7 days where it is included in the rate or
booked prior. Most guest’s advice is we live in paradise, we wake up to
this and the bird song every day!
About us
Our aim at Mungumby Lodge is to provide more than just an overnight, more so a unique & memorable experience. We like you to consider Mungumby Lodge a base or home away from home from where you can explore this unique and amazing region.
Eco-tourism is an
interesting terminology and one we embrace. At Mungumby Lodge our objective is
to ensure our operation works in harmony with nature, and with our
environment-first strategy. We do not belong to any eco-clubs, we take action every day!
We tailor our operations to ensure minimal impact on the environment that hosts our existence. We have recycled for the past 24 years, used Eco-friendly lighting for the past 16 years. We have never exploited endemic wildlife for tourism, we operate on an environmentally-friendly evaporation waste system, minimize walking track clearance, provide all water pressure through a gravity feed system, and keep our pool at minimum chlorine levels to ensure the animals and birds can continue to drink from it in the dry season. The best part is the linen on your bed is sun dried and fresh.
There is always room for improvement and further development of this philosophy, through action rather than words. Our ultimate award, is nature´s praise.
