~ YAMACUTTA ~

Rainforest Lodge

Just 6 minutes from the magical Coral Sea Coast in the heart of North Queensland's Wet Tropics.

SOUTH MISSION BEACH - AUSTRALIA

Yamacutta is a stunning high quality architect-designed Rainforest Lodge .
The property is available for holiday rental and at times for Bed & Breakfast.
We can also arrange an exclusive holiday totally tailor-made to suit you.

Approached along a 300 metre track through 12 acres of private rainforest, Yamacutta is in a commanding position at the head of a tranquil 5 acre clearing. There are excellent views from all rooms down over our tropical fruit Orchard to Mount Mackay.

 

In this totally private setting a rich variety of wildlife wanders freely amongst Tahitian Limes, Lemonade & Lemon trees, Rambutans, Indonesian Guavas, Starfruit, Pomelos, Mango & Soursop, meandering in and out of the native forest habitat.

 


Relax on the verandah in total peace. Watch for wallabies and the rare protected Cassowaries which frequent the garden. In complete privacy behind the house you can enjoy total relaxation in our stunning “lagoon-style” Rainforest pool or sit in the cool of the thatched Balinese Shadehouse.

 

It's the perfect place to escape, unwind, relax, refresh your mind and body, re-discover yourself away from lif'e's pressures.

 

 

 

The daytime air is full of birdsong ~ lorikeets, pittas, Wompoo doves. The night time comes alive with choruses of cigadas, frogs, owls, scrub turkeys, cat-birds. A clear night sky can be spectacular.

 

 

A paradise for naturalists & naturists, artists & photgraphers, Yamacutta is also a great base for touring, whilst a huge range of activities are within easy reach for those wanting more energetic pursuits.

 

 

 

South Mission Beach is just 6 minutes away. It is friendly, unsophisticated &undiscovered but with a simple charm ~ shops for everyday needs, boutiques, numerous relaxed cafés and restaurants. Its jewel is the 13 kilometres of near-deserted palm-fringed beach with stunning views to nearby Dunk, Bedarra and Hinchinbrook Islands.

 

 

Mission Beach is the closest mainland point to the Great Barrier Reef, one of the world's wonders. Don't miss taking a day trip to the Reef for snorkelling or Scuba-diving - (PADI qualified instructors on board.)
