Raintree Lodge

Hiding behind a bamboo stockade like some coquettish ingenue, this tranquil, intimate boutique hotel consists of just 12 spacious yet somewhat sombre suites that sit in an orchid-rich garden. The Balinese masseuse works her magic on nonguests also (advance bookings) and Raintree makes for a peaceful retreat from Moresby's relentless hubbub. Not to be confused with concrete monstrosity Raintree Hotel.
