Cabin vacation rentals in Great Barrier Reef

One of my favourite Airbnb stays! So private and peaceful, beautiful property and house. Only a 5 minute drive into the beach but you feel like you’re on a country stay. A lot of room for dogs to run around and do their thing, we loved the outdoor bath and fire! Will absolutely be returning 😊

We didnt meet the owners but the place was stunning. Really tropical island vibes, outdoor kitchen, close to everything. 100% recommend

I cannot express enough how incredible it was staying at Peter and Sayah’s garden cottage. The facilities are perfect for a long or short stay. I happened to stay for 6 weeks, and I happily had access to the wardrobe and many coat hangers, all the great kitchen amenities and utensils, washer and dryer, comfy bed, lovely little living space and perfect sized bathroom. It’s even cleaned and serviced once a week! The little home is nestled among a gorgeously maintained garden; it is very private and homey. Not to mention the location is awesome and within walking distance from the IGA, Main Street, restaurants, school and more. But the most special thing was the hospitality of Peter and Sayah. They are truly two spectacular people who care for their guests. They also are so knowledgeable about Cooktown and have endless suggestions of what the little, quaint costal town has to offer. I will only stay here when I get the chance to visit again!

Great value for money. Was lovely and clean. The view was outstanding, you are in amongst the clouds! Mick was very quick to respond to any questions. My only note for future bookers is you would need a 4WD to access the property. Otherwise the property is excellent for a private and quiet getaway.

Really enjoy our stay here! Great location but still nice and quiet, loved the communal kitchen area! Room was cosy and had everything we needed, and Carly and Mark were friendly and quick with responses and any help we needed. Would definitely stay again!

Jeanie was an incredible host, providing lush arrival package which made us feel even more at home. Her place is stunning and the surrounding area is beautiful. Jeanie was so welcoming and provided some great recommendations of the local area. We will definitely be coming back! Thanks so much Jeanie!

Perfect place to stay on Magnetic Islamd, close to bus stops and amenities and well maintained, peaceful accommodation. Would highly recommend!

We had the most wonderful stay at the Feng Shui Suagrcane Cabin! The atmosphere and energy on the property and in the cabin was magical! The location is tranquil and serene with an amazing view of the Sugarcane fields and the night sky and stars! Our hosts, Carole and Tony, made the experience even more pleasant with their warm hospitality and kindness. Highly recommended!

This house is wonderful - completely private, peaceful, surrounded by greenery, and fully equipped to have a quiet weekend away. It is decorated and furnished with love and care, with plenty of little touches (vinyl player, books, hammock, outdoor bathtub, fire etc.) to make it homely. We would definitely stay here again and it is incredibly well-priced.

Great stop over on the way up north. Nice location by the beach and restaurants

Great location welcoming staff enjoyed the experience

Our party of 6 plus 1 dog stayed 2 nights to access the reef. We had ample parking for 2 vehicles, good kitchen facilities for meals. The bedrooms are small but good for what we needed. The cabin is surrounded by wilderness, kookaburras laughing, parrots, kangaroos and even bats at night. Loved that experience! Carl was friendly and helpful.

Wished we’d stayed longer. Absolutely loved our cabin and surroundings. Our Hosts were excellent too. Can highly recommend staying here. It really is peace and quiet at its best

Natalie's description of her cabin is on point. It was good value in a beautiful location. Noise sensitive people may be better staying elsewhere, however the noise level is ok for the regular crowd. The cabin was clean, tidy, and the pool was very peaceful.

The cabin was absolutely beautiful! Casey made check in super easy and included photos to make it easy to locate the keys. The cabin itself was immaculate, with ample linen and towels to make our stay nice and easy. It’s hard to pick one highlight, as the whole place was literally perfectly set out, but the kitchen is well worth mentioning with the perfect design and absolutely everything you need for cooking meals for ourselves of the evening. They were super kind and left a wide variety of supplies like spreads, oils, bread, butter and milk, even eggs and bacon although we didn’t get a chance to use them as we were in the village a lot of our stay. It wasn’t a downside for my 4WD and not to put any one off this wonderful place, but the driveway is quite steep, definitely worth noting if you have a small car that you might have a touch of trouble, but most cars would be fine with it honestly. I have zero complaints though, everything was perfect and so quiet! Would recommend!!

The place was awesome. We saw kangaroos and the house and everything you have outdoors is beautiful. Recommended.

Lovely, secluded & quiet space with all the necessities and a lot of privacy. Comfortable walking distance to the bus and beach if you don’t have your own transport & Aly picked me and my luggage up from the bus stop which was much appreciated.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this gorgeous space! The home private and tranquil, situated well off the road with no neighbours to be seen or heard. It has multiple outstanding outdoor spaces including a lovely back lawn overlooking the mountains and cattle paddocks. We enjoyed long evenings with a bottle of wine around the fire pit. The indoor spaces are thoroughly thought out, the kitchen was well equipped, and the beds were comfortable. The “log home” atmosphere felt beautiful and cozy. The home was exceptionally clean and well presented. Thank you for the thoughtful addition of milk and fruit. We went in winter and it was perfect. I’d highly recommend for anyone looking for a cozy winter getaway. I’m not one hundred percent sure if the home has air conditioning, so if you are travelling in summer maybe that’s something to clarify. Thank you, we would love to stay again!

Had a lovely stay and Prema and Bill were so lovely and kind we will definitely be coming back it was so beautiful 😍 highly recommended

Beautiful private cottage with everything we needed to have a great stay. Craig was super friendly, responsive and welcoming. Lots to do in the area, it was exactly as we expected. Thanks for having us.

We are locals who just needed a little escape and bit of romance. This place was amazing! Spotless clean, beautiful decor and layout, everything you need and then some. She really has thought of all the little things which just made our stay so much more. Our welcome treat was an absolute plus and was enjoyed by fire! Couldn't recommend more highly. Will definitely be staying again and telling our friends. x

We've stayed here many times and we always enjoy it. Elvis and his family are lovely people and the accommodation/surrounds/amenities are great. You can't go wrong if you decide to book with Elvis. Enjoy!

We had a great few days away. The place was comfortable, clean and tidy and had everything you needed. Dian also supplied a lovely breakfast as a treat. This was a nice surprise which we enjoyed. Dian responded quickly to my emails and helped to make our stay just perfect. Thanks Dian for a lovely stay and for being a great host.
