Beautiful lodge on super nice property. We really loved the view from our lodge terrace into the forrest. You are in the middle of nature but still have all the luxuries with a hot shower, new aircon and a small but well equipped kitchen. Everything was perfectly clean as well.

Hosts were friendly and helpful. The breakfast makings were provided and topped up by the hosts. Fantastic historic old former bank/house that the hosts were doing up, and saving history. we could see how much work they had put into the project. they had a great coffee shop on the ground floor. As guests, we had the whole top floor as there was only one bathroom.

    Wonderful scenic location with excellent historical sites well mapped out. A must to feel the vibes and history in the foundation place of Australia. A great feel about the community who seem to get on fabulously. A must visit of 3 days or longer

    The botanic gardens are a must.

    The botanic gardens are a must. The separately themed gardens are well chosen. The James Cook museum is very interesting. If you don't want to go on a cruise or go fishing there's not much to do.

    Very nice place museum was overpriced for a bit of captain cook info and the damn wind never stops but nice lunch at lawn bowls club in main street was very easy nice and tasty. Plenty of things to see all on main street so easy parking and walking track along waters edge. Waterpark and Music ship for the younger ones or ones that want to be young again.

    Great. We are at the fish n chips on the wharf. At COOKS LANDING KIOSKS was 10/10 mackerel prawn calamari. Also did the The Bloomfield track on our run was easy with staying a night at cape tribulation campground. After that was the 2 steep incline and declines. 22% and 33%. With one coming down was not cement lije the other. Know your 4WD buttons etc before hitting into it.

    Cooktown has a quaint old era feel with the heritage buildings in the main street leading down to the wharf. Fortunately we were in town on Saturday to experience the local market. Whilst not overly big, the friendly locals made the visit worthwhile. There was a good selection of local produce but a highlight was meeting local celebrity artist, Helen Gordon, who entertained us for some time with the story of her family, In the pictures you can see Helen with a picture that we purchased. A longer trip would have enabled deeper exploration along the Endeavour River and the national park. Good views over the town and of the sunset were obtained from Grassy Hill - a hill that Captain Cook climbed when he was having the Endeavour repaired in the bay below.

    Historic town - very cultural significant history - extremely interesting museum. RSL - good value/drinks/meals Excellent road access to Cooktown (but not in the "wet" season). Sovereign Resort did not accept American Express - only place in town that didn't, and staff in cocktail lounge had no idea what a Champagne Cocktail was !! (& used electric blender - not hand shaken = 007 most unimpressed.

    The location is excellent to explore Cooktown. The apartment is located in the main street and close to shops and attractions. The apartment has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, laundry and all the facilities required for a short or long stay. The view from the verandah is gorgeous (particularly at sunset) and overlooks a park and the Endeavour River. There is market in the park on Saturday morning. The walkway around the river is great for a morning or an afternoon stroll with many story boards about the local history.

    Gecko House was fantastic, Diana was a wonderful host, very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. The room was clean and had everything we needed, the communal area is great, good facilities to hang out, cook your own meals, have a few drinks etc. We were very impressed, and the price was very reasonable. We look forward to returning to Cooktown & will definitely stay here again. Thanks Gecko House for a great stay :)

    We knew that we booked a $120 unit and not $350 unit. Ie expected it to be as it was with no complaints. The manager was very helpful for our needs and we appreciated it. The kitchen was amazing ti do your own meal. Was not expecting that. So that made the whole 1n so cheap to go to Cooktown. Lovely garden room area.

    There are not a lot of options in Cooktown. This property is the correct choice. The pool is outstanding. the room was large and had everything we needed. Restaurant also was superb, had a great T bone steak on "Tuesday Steak night". There also is RSL across the street.
