Room was great, bed comfy and bath fabulous. Staff fantastic! Perhaps one of those tiny sewing kits for travellers might be handy.

Close proximity to everything Darwin City offers. We had one of the bungalows - just enough room for two people with a kitchnette which is a bonus. Own BBQ on the verandah but did not have time to use. Not many parking spaces but you can always park on the street (plenty of spaces and free from 5pm-8am). Comfortable bed, daily room service, and a nice pool. Daily breakfast for $18.50, which is reasonable compared to eating at the restaurants in the area. Or Coles is just around the corner if you want to pick up some supplies from there. There is a laundry facility and you can iron your clothes in there if you need to. Definitely would stay here again but maybe in one of the villas next time.

Loved our Poolside Courtyard room, we still had our privacy but we were literally steps from the infinity pool. We adored the Rooftop Terrace Bar with free nibbles as well as friendly staff and a great drinks menu. It was a short walk to restaurants, cafes, waterfront precinct etc. as well as quick & easy check in & out with more friendly staff.👍❤️

Loved our stay. Only suggestion would be another mirror in the lounge or bedroom and a bit more light in the bathroom to put make up on.
