The house sits amid lush tropical grounds overlooking a gorgeous in-ground pool. Janbal is an experience. Grab a book and sneak away to one of the many nooks and just relax!

Swap the smog, cars, and city hum for the for the chirps, murmurs and the constant babbling of the forest stream. Swap the streetlights for the moon’s brilliance rising above the fronds of the Alexandra palms. Enjoy the facilities of this fully equipped luxurious home, built to merge perfectly with the Northern Queensland Rainforest.

The birds at Janbal will excite any interested Bird Watcher, the male Cassowary wandering through the grounds, the "walk to work" call of the Noisy Pitta, the rasping voice of the elusive Victoria's Riflebird or the constant trill of the Double-eyed Fig parrot as it feeds in the Fig tree beside your window.

The beauty of birdwatching at Janbal is simple. Just sit on the veranda with your favourite drink and a pair of binoculars and the birds will come to you! Sick of tourist traps? Janbal offers the perfect base for exploring Far North Queensland.
