Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The outdoor areas of the hotel are looking run down. It’s a shame that security cannot be guaranteed in the car park. We had a boat and were advised to remove most of our contents of value. It is timely that consideration be given to an option for safe storage of items like boats overnight etc. The restaurant service was ok, however the food was lovely, as it was when we stayed in late April 2025. Check in was friendly and helpful.

The property is older and could do with a refurb
There aren’t many options for lunch and dinner in the area and the restaurant and bar is very understaffed but all staff were lovely despite this.
Wanted to eat lunch poolside and were told this wasn’t allowed - when the menu is basic burgers this seems bizarre
Kakadu is incredible with lots to do
Room conditions were nice, Bed comfy, Buffet meal was good, Supermarket, Service Station, good location in Jabiru Kakadu for walks & attractions. Made use of Pool, clean & refreshing & open till 10pm. Got a late checkout, friendly service. 😊 Bit Expensive
When you stay at this hotel, remember that you are in the middle of nowhere. Considering this, the hotel is amazing! Food was very good and service and staff were amazing.
It is a very good and convenient place for exploring Kakadu, good breakfast, nice restaurants with quality meals and friendly staff…only downside is it is a bit expensive as there are not much competition!!!
Had a lovely stay the food was always amazing. Staff went above and beyond from a special celebratory desert to changing a booking. Thank you so much as you made this stay very special.
Great staff! Great location! Mentioned only in conversation that it was our 15yr anniversary! And after our dinner as a surprise the team had a little happy anniversary cake for us! Soooo nice 👌
This was a great place to stay while exploring Kakadu! The room was super clean, comfy, and spacious, which was fantastic given that it was necessary to return to the room during the hottest hours of the day. The restaurant was lovely, it was easy to get a good coffee drink first thing in the morning, the amenities were great, and everyone was friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

Oasis facility
Lovely hotel to stay in with all the facilities travellers could need including the nice dining room, air-con of course, and the onsite undercover pool. Great facility for the town and visitors - it is an attraction in itself with fantastic architecture and beautiful indigenous art displays.
