My husband and myself spent a week in Thala Beach Lodge in December and we cannot recommend it highly enough for anyone who would like to spend time in complete peace and tranquility. As we were on honeymoon in Australia it was the perfect place to begin our holiday. The lodge and accommodation is amazing and the scenery is only... More

I work for one of the 5 star hotels in Cairns, QLD and working for such a great company my hotel expectations are very high. Thala Beach Lodge is so stunning, the location, the views, the rooms, pool area & food were great. I recommend the lodge to all my guests at work as my partner and I had such... More

So...after reading the hundreds of amazing reviews of previous vistors, I guess I went with extra high expectations. We were booked in an Eucalypt Bungalow for 3 nights and I was pleased that on check-in we were upgraded to a Coral bungalow - good start. We were in room 3 for the first night which had some sea views. The... More

We optimize our local status by visiting Thala’s restaurant regularly. It truly is a spectacular experience: set amidst the tall rainforest trees with its abundance of bird life you could easily imagine dining on a treetop canopy.

The mosquitoes were a nuisance and I didn't notice the restaurant using its mosquito coils. We found the restaurant disappointing as we had heard... More

On a recommendation from our travel agent, we spent four wonderful nights at Thala. We had excellent service from all of the hotel staff and enjoyed the meals. We were torn on whether to rent a car or not, but the shuttle to Pt. Douglas was sufficient for our off-site needs. Plus all of the excursions (Kuranda Skyrail & Barron... More

I have lived in Cairns for a year and dicovered Thala on a trip to Port one day ....one word to discribe it ..... MAGIC!!!!! ....and have been to Thala many times since..... On leaving Cairns and having the oppurtunity to stay at Thala, I must say the service and staff were outstanding, very friendly and a happy team who... More

After reading so many positive reviews about Thala, I thought my words would be merely redundant and decided to ignore an impulse to write this review. However, as our 80 days of travel through Hawaii, Australia, New Zealand, Moorea and Bora Bora approach the last few hours, I cannot return home without adding a few more words about Thala Resort...
