These new bungalows at the Mecure Airport resort are great. You barely even feel like you are in a resort as they are on the edge with lovely natural gardens. They are modern and functional and we would definitely book them again. We are NT locals who often stay here when transiting on holidays.

We only booked in late in evening and left early morning. The room was spotless and the aircon was on when we arrived. We were exhausted from travel and it was a pleasure to come to a room fully prepared. We were on the ground floor which was great and it was very quiet. The shuttle bus took us straight to airport next morning, no problems was very thankful for it, the whole resort looks amazing although we only saw it at night
