Visionary hotels changing the way we travel…
Silky Oaks Lodge has been placed on ‘The World’s Best New Hotels: 2022 Stay List’ as selected by AFAR, as they unveil 14 of the best sustainable new hotels in the world. Opened in the last two years, the new and renovated properties that make up the 2022 Stay List prioritise community-centred, socially responsible, environmentally sensitive operations. Their owners are helping to redefine hospitality in ways that benefit both guests and locals.
“The Daintree Rainforest, 180 million years old, has been home to the Eastern Kuku Yalanji people for more than 50,000 years—and teems with buff-breasted paradise kingfishers, musky rat-kangaroos, and bioluminescent fungi. Sitting on 80 forested acres next to the rain forest in northeast Queensland, the recently reimagined Silky Oaks Lodge is an eco-conscious retreat for travelers seeking a deeper understanding of the world’s oldest forest and indigenous cultures. The 40 guest rooms include treehouse suites with outdoor stone tubs. When guests want to learn about ancient medicinal plants and spot the vibrant blue Ulysses butterfly, Aboriginal-owned tour operator Walkabout Cultural Adventures leads the way, tapping into millennia-old knowledge of the rain forest.” – Jennifer Flowers, AFAR.
