Our story and what makes Ahana special
Ahana Hillside is a private retreat nestled in the lush tropical rainforest hills just outside Cairns, in Tropical North Queensland. What began as a love for the land has grown into a welcoming space where travellers can disconnect from the everyday and reconnect with nature.
Set on a quiet hillside surrounded by native bushland, our property offers a peaceful escape with sweeping views and the sounds of the rainforest. Whether you're looking for a budget-friendly stay or a unique camping experience, Ahana Hillside is your base to explore everything the region has to offer.
Wake up to birdsong and morning mist rolling through the hills. Spend your days exploring the Great Barrier Reef, Daintree Rainforest, or the Atherton Tablelands, and return to the tranquillity of your hillside retreat.
Our eco-friendly campsites are designed to sit gently on the land, offering a genuine connection to the tropical environment while providing the essentials for a comfortable stay.
"Where the rainforest meets the hillside, and the everyday fades away."
No frills, no fuss. Just nature, fresh air, and a good night's rest under the stars.
We tread lightly on the land, using locally sourced materials and eco-friendly practices.
Travellers from all over the world share stories around the campfire here.
Spacious, well-separated sites so you can enjoy your own slice of the hillside.
