Celebrated a friends get together and we all ordered 2 courses my husbands pork belly entree had no flavour. Then for main course my friend ordered the mushroom risotto which had no flavour and was very watery, we did complain and the rice dish was removed from the bill. The reason I am writing this review is both the waitress and the duty manager have had complaints about the risotto previously and the chef has done nothing about this, very sad. We would not return to this venue due to this experience

Cooktown Motel

Don't Bother

Reviewed By Gavinski3894

Budgeting has its limits. Rooms are old small and not that clean. TV not much bigger than a postage stamp. Had a pool but not that inviting. Kitchen has a lot of burners but ma n agers dogs running under your feet is off putting. Place is for sale but I don't think anyone would buy it. Pay a bit more and go somewhere else.

Milkwood Lodge Rainforest Retreat

Absolutely with every cent

Reviewed By marn1105

Such a hidden gem. This place was amazing. Rooms were spotless and so quiet. Well appointed and the nicest views. The lady who checked m in was so lovely and helpful. Very close to town but far enough out you can just enjoy the peace and quiet. Couldn’t recommend it enough

Wonderful guest house in historic Cooktown. Wonderful host Katrina who was available for any enquiry! The room was immaculate, and the bathrooms equally so. Truly lovely accomodation at great price point.

Riva-La-Vista-Cooktown

Perfect

Reviewed By PhilMalone

The views from Riva La Vista are superb - each room takes in the view and the outdoor lounge and kitchen provide plenty of space to take in the views of Cooktown bay as well. The hosts are very helpful and welcoming and know the area very well with lots of advice. The breakfast was great - all complimentary and the Webber BBQ mean we didn't need eat dinner out but just cooked there - as our views couldn't be beaten anyway. The sleep was comfortable with the A/C essential to keep the room cool in this hot tropical climate (we were there in January) I would thoroughly recommend this place for price and quality.
