Best stay i’ve ever had. The spot is amazing it was the best getaway feels like you’re in private tropical paradise. Setup perfect for privacy, so spacious and the grounds are immaculate. Was only gonna stay a night but it was so beautiful that we stayed another night, pricing is fantastic will definitely be coming back for longer, thanks John for the amazing stay.-Scott, Kay & Kasey
Bloomfield Escape was a perfect escape for me after about a week of tiring camping and driving. An oasis in the jungle with a really comfortable cabin and complete peace.And hosts that made you feel so welcome.
The Bloomfield escape was so beautiful, well maintained and at an excellent price, and the owner and the caretakers are absolutely lovely people, definitely recommend staying at the Bloomfield escape
We had a great stay at Bloomfield escape. We stayed 3 nights with the intention to explore in the day and stay at the accommodation in the evening.After a chat with John on the first day, he advised that the weather was good enough to fish a morning out at sea. We had a great morning on the water and took home a coral trout which was filleted and given to us for lunch and dinner (best eating fish in the sea). John is a very knowledgeable and experienced captain - he gave us great info on the area and the equipment for fishing and safety is all excellent and well maintained. They also have a number of boat options for off / on shore fishing / boating.John and Deb ensured we had all we needed and gave us some fresh coconut to drink and a few other bits to make the stay even better.Accom was clean and has all you need to cook on the BBQ and microwave, our room had 2 fridges which was great to store all the food and drink,Will stay again and hopefully get out for a fish another day,Thanks,Rob
Chalet style accomodation of one big room with two beds and a sofa and a lovely porch out the front with a bbq, and located in beautiful well kept grounds. It was very comfortable and slept 3 of us very easily with a pull out sofa bed, also we could prepare food in the small kitchen in the cabin. The owners were extremely kind and helpful and very informative about all things to do with CaptainCook and his journey in that part of the world. Also gave us a chance to visit Wujal Wujal and the falls. They were very very kind and thoughtful especially as we came on the trans north bus and had no car.
Very clean chalets with everything you need ...found this little beauty by accident...we were a bit lost but what a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow...lovely human a n d animal hosts were delightful ..can highly recommend this place🥰
The most amazing relaxing place even when it just rained rained rained ! and had to be rescued when our boat broke down. Our host and the owners were fantastic can't wait to go back.. with less rain
We rented a boat and did a little cruise on the nearby river. Great personal service, amazing prices very friendly and helpful owners. The owner gave us two fishing rods, 3 fishing lines, bait and an eski full of ice. Without knowing much about fishing we caught a big queenfish thanks to the good advice we got. Spotted several salt crocs and had a great day there.
We spent an amazing time at Bloomfield Escape, a little paradise next to the beach. We especially enjoyed a boating and fishing day, snorkelling and crocodile spotting! John and Debbie are lovely and took care of us. We highly recommend their place!Marion and Hugo
The name says it all.. Bloomfield Escape is a great place to escape from busy lifestyle. It is beautiful and warm- like an oasis in the middle of nowhere. Appreciated more especially after such a long drive. Thank you so much for your hospitality John and Debby !手付かずの大自然の中の、ホッとくつろげるオアシスのような空間。オーナーのジョン&デビーさんの温かなおもてなしに感謝します！夜は静寂の中、満天の星空を楽しめました。
This was the best place ever for us....John and Debby have created such an exquisite garden and grounds with perfect cabins. The cabins are really comfortable and have every amenity you would need.A really great place to stay. However, the icing on the cake was our day out on John's boat Escape II. We set out at 8 am for the most memorable day ever. We motored out of the Bloomfield river with John and Shane. Did some fishing...brilliant and we all caught a fish and selected two for our dinner- Coral Trout and Spotted Cod.....more of this later.Having done our fishing we then reached Hope Island (a veritable uninhabited desert island) where we did snorkeling which was fantastic. ...the coral reef just amazing.....this was followed but a magic lunch that John prepared amongst the trees....then we circumnavigated the island with Shane's expert guidance.You must not miss this day or a stay at Bloomfield Escape....it is fantastic and a bucket list item.Thanks to John and Shane for great day at sea and to Debby and John for a brilliant place to stay and relax.Now to the the best fish I have ever tasted.....it was kindly filleted by Shane and was then cooked lightly in butter and flour and lightly oiled and salted ....it was probably the best fish we have eaten....fresh and delicious....it don't think there is a restaurant that could match this exquisite meal.....what a day.
We can't say enough positive things about Bloomfield Escape! John and Debbie were the perfect hosts. We arrived via the 4WD-only Bloomfield Track, which takes you through dense rainforests and cassowary country, up into a beautiful mountain landscape, and then down into Bloomfield Escape, which is a short ten-minute walk from a beautiful and nearly deserted beach. The grounds of the cabins are open air and full of wildlife. The cabins are roomy, clean, and comfortable. They have hot water, a water heater, a fridge, microwave, stovetop and grill, pots/pans/plates/silverware, air conditioning, and WiFi (though we had some trouble connecting). Make sure to bring your own food, especially if you're driving in a bit later in the day: there is an excellent cafe down the road open for breakfast and lunch, and a market, but neither is open late. The location is remote, but as a result, we had the most spectacular stargazing of our lives there. During our stay, we drove an hour north to visit Cooktown, and then explored a nearby reef and island with John and Shane, where we also caught coral trout that we cooked that night for dinner. 10/10!
