A marvellous property in the national park. Simply a great to stay there, so close to the waterways and forest. I loved my stay - everything very special (in the off season too!(
BRIDGET, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This property is in a remote area. Well set out. Good facilities. Good food. Great staff. Well positioned for the surrounding attractions.
Lorinda, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It's the location from where the Yellow Water cruises depart from so that is very convenient. This lodge also has a shop and fuel bowsers. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable about Kakadu NP.
Francoise, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was a great stay. because we were there at the end off season we did not have many dining options which was a shame. Overall very happy and very central to all that Kakadu has to offer.
Gary, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Our stay was during the wet, off-season so we did not have the property when it was at its best. However, the staff were very friendly but dining options were very limited - especially for me as a vegetarian - and the place had a slight overall shabbiness which means it’s a 3 overall from me.
Brett, 4-night trip

Great location especially as taking 645am yellow river cruise. Friendly staff, great place to come back too after a day out exploring the region. Only downside was the condition of our room which was quickly rectified once raised with staff.

Overall enjoyed our stay. They had aircon going before our arrival which was lovely and the portacot we requested was all set up. Expensive for the standard of room you get but it's worth it to explore the wonderful sites nearby.
