Great place

Very good service! In the middle, of everything close to the city and suburbs. But does need to block out curtains.
Dennis James, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

I loved how cute the outside of the cabins. Inside they were clean and modernish. Things do need to be updated in the cabin like the bins, curtains, bed bases and bathroom. Otherwise it was comfortable, good price and secure.
Danielle, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

We stayed twice at this property - for 4D3N and we checked out to go to Kakadu National Park for 3D2N and came back to Darwin Resort for 2D1N - they provided storage for our bigger luggages between the stays. The property was nice - most of the rooms were on individual buildings, so it provided privacy, 'chalet-like' stay. However the rooms were crawling with small ants - in the bathroom, even on the beds. Front desk closed at 5PM (or 2PM on Sunday/ public holidays) - they didn't email us the code to the box to get our room key as promised (we have informed them that we would be arriving around 7pm on the 1st stay). Had to call the sister-hotel in the city and fill up some form before they emailed us the code. There was no housekeeping service, there's a notice put in the room that $20 charge will be imposed with we did not clean our cups/ plates. 10-minutes to airport and DRW city. And OK place if you're on a budget but there's no 'resort' to it

Not too far from the airport, price reasonable in peak Darwin holiday season. Rooms quite clean. Not much around except a petrol station. Although some days the restaurant onsite is open. Phone assistance to process check-in as reception not open when i arrived

The lack of cleaning everything dirty, no complete coffee/tea making facility,unkept grounds, broken locks on window, electric doors that imprison guest's in a power failure.
