A two night stay at the Malanda Lodge recently was an absolute pleasure. Set amongst one of the most picturesque tropical settings in North Queensland, the Lodge offers one of the best overnight stays we have experienced, Tranquil, wonderful staff, a superb continental breakfast made the stay a memorable experience. Recommend putting the Lodge at the top of your list when travelling through the Atherton Tablelands.
