Silky Oaks Lodge
About
Overview & Vibe
Silky Oaks Lodge sits above the Mossman River on the edge of the Daintree — treehouse-style suites strung through a leafy canopy, with the river's swimming holes below and the rainforest closing in on every side.
Setting & Style
Events are held across a handful of spaces rather than one ballroom: the Treehouse Restaurant for 82, the Marrdja Pavilion for 60 to 82, the Kitchen Garden for 12 to 20, the Jungle Perch for 15 and the Kubirri Lounge for 12, with boardroom, dining and cocktail configurations arranged to suit. With only forty treehouse-style suites — Rainforest Retreat, Treehouse Retreat, Treehouse Premium, Riverhouse, Billabong Suite and the Daintree Pavilion — the property runs on an all-inclusive tariff, where a stay covers daily breakfast, dinner with premium wines, evening drinks and snacks and an in-suite bar, plus morning yoga and guided walks through the kitchen garden.
Ideal For
Couples wanting a small Daintree wedding where the whole party stays in the rainforest for days, not hours.
