First room we booked the walls were dirty - cleaned not very throughly and tv was broken in on bedroom - we got moved to a cleaner room however that room didn’t have a tv in bedroom and the shower had barely any water pressure. It use to be my go to place for family holidays in Darwin but unfortunately has gone down hill. I will say the staff were lovely and accommodating.

Love the location. The view is pretty. But unfortunately the place is in desperate need for cleaning and updating. Curtains all stained with brown substances, paint peeling, dirty dishes in cupboards, soap scum and someone else’s bosy sponge in shower. Not enough tissues or toilet paper, uncomfortable couch and mattress, finger marks on walls, doors, cupboards. Mirror de silvering, no foxtel/tv channels, dated wobbly furniture and chairs.

Good facilities and marina views. Room was booked to have twin beds but it had a single king. The staff organised for my granddaughter to stay in a separate room for the first night. By the second night the booked room had twin beds. Not enough guest parking spots which necessitated parking in the street one night. One only drawer not enough for unpacking and storing clothes for 3 days. Other than that, I would recommend the resort.
