“A little bit of paradise...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 January 2012

A tropical oasis in the midst of the rainforest, just a short drive from the wonderful beaches of FNQ. A first class venue for those who love nature and birdlife, and hosts Maureen and Stephen are ready to share a wealth of knowledge on the flora, fauna and sights of the area. Peaceful and serene, this was an ideal location from which we were able to explore the coast, the Daintree River and the wonderful tablelands beyond.

Just a short drive from Port Douglas, a stunning coastal resort which serves as a springboard for boat trips, local tours, fishing expeditions and scenic flights. Great restaurants and shopping in a holiday atmosphere.

Breakfast on the deck is the highpoint of the day, stylishly served tropical fruits, preserves and pastries on a table decked with red and yellow hibiscus picked fresh from the garden!!

We'd highly recommend it for those wanting a more personalised holiday than the big hotels offer.

“A wonderful bed and breakfast”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 January 2012

Papillon Bed & Breakfast was a wonderful home base for our adventures in Northern Queensland. They were very knowledgable and helpful in organizing a reef tour and a Daintree Rainforest tour for us..even in the short time we had. Their close proximity to Mossman Gorge is definitely not to be overlooked as the gorge is absolutely gorgeous and a wonderful place to take a cool dip on a hot afternoon. The home itself is beautiful and extremely comfortable. They were very accommodating with our dietary needs. I would definitely recommend staying at Papillon versus in a larger town. Their garden, pool, and overall relaxing atmosphere were just perfect. Thanks so much for a great stay!

Room Tip: Both rooms are beautiful and well accommodated.

“We will be back”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 December 2011

Couldn't fault our 4 days stay at Papillon. Maureen and Stephen looked after us so well, we really could have stayed longer (loved the breakfast) and definitely will be back. Our room was well appointed with a wonderful outlook to the garden and pool. Relaxing on the deck in the hammock, in the peace of Mossman, really couldn't be beaten. Our hosts helped us with sight seeing and were spot on with their suggestions. We made the best decision making Mossman our base. Only 15 klms from Port Douglas but without the crouds. Mossman is a treasure, would suggest not visiting the Gorge on a weekend, but don't miss it. Just beautiful. Mojo's restaurant is a winner for us, great food!

“Papillon bed & breakfast”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 December 2011

A beautifull place to stay! The owners are very friendly and they know a lot about the area and the things worth seeing. The Mossman Gorge is a great place to take a hike and be surrounded by the wonderfull nature. We couldn't wish for a better start of our holiday in Australia.

Room Tip: The have 2 beautifull rooms, so it doesn't matter which one you choose.
