Noise of a huge group partying continuously throughout the night. Horrible! No sleep. Security continually called, but unable to control the groups. The worst experience I have ever had. “Tiwi Bombers” should be ashamed, disgusting behaviour! Absolutely no respect for any other guests.

The resort is always convenient for airport travel. Some rooms are getting dated. There was a problem with our booking (they were over-booked) so we got upgraded. But then the air-con didn't work in one room, so we were moved again. The upgrades were nice but it was a hassle. There is limited dining on site and they seem to have blocked Uber Eats from being able to deliver.

It was further from the airport than first told however they had a courtesy bus which was excellent. Lots of road works out front. The bathroom door wouldn't stay closed and there was no smoke alarm attached. It was difficult to find our room also

A great place for a transit overnight. The staff were very friendly and accommodating and allowed me a later checkout. The room was very modern and spacious. Would definitely recommend.
