Daintree Eco Lodge & Spa's site is important in the local culture. The property was occupied by forefathers of the Kuku Yalanji people and used as a resting place as it provided spring water, an abundance of edible and medicinal plants, fauna, bathing holes, protection from harsh weather conditions and is adjacent to the majestic Daintree River.

Daintree Eco Lodge & Spa's Aboriginal guides couple this cultural information with botanical and wildlife information on an Indigenous Guided Rainforest Walk to special places with healing powers significant to women, highlighting bush medicines and foods, traditional life and history. Our guides also share their personal stories with you.

Daintree Eco Lodge & Spa stands, and will continue to stand, as a testament to the intelligent integration that is possible between man and nature and to provide future generations the opportunity to live in harmony with nature.

Guests at Daintree Eco Lodge & Spa can experience unique Indigenous culture and traditions due to this involvement. With Indigenous attributes incorporated into every aspect of the property, from Julaymba Restaurant where natural ginger, coconut and bush foods are subtly infused in gourmet delights, to the Daintree Spa where ochres, muds, ginger become part of the Aboriginal treatments, to the interpretative guided rainforest walks, the Aboriginal art classes, workshops and cultural performances. Daintree Eco Lodge & Spa continues to provide unique experiences not offered elsewhere in the world.
