One of the best holidays I've ever had. Location was superb, accommodation was very good, local amenities were amazing and customer service was very good. Almost endless supply of eating establishments. Mindil Beach markets an absolute must as is Litchfield National Park.

Rest and Restore

We stayed in this apartment for 5 nights to get a break from the big smoke. The location, as most guests would agree, is second to none. Very convenient to the foreshore and CBD. Overlooking the Beach Club was a bonus !

Response from VrboOwner on 9 Aug, 2023
Thank you Debra, for your review & taking care of our apartment. Our Airconditioning Unit was completely repaired in April this year. If only you had informed us that the AC was not working, we would have taken immediate action. Apon arrival their the newly arrived guested informed us that the AC was not working. We had a AC technician attend within the next couple of days. He informed us the Newly installed AC compressor has failed. As warranty claims and part availability takes time to process. To solve the problem, we immediately purchased a mobile 4.7 Kilowatt AC Unit and it is working well as the new guest has informed us. Meanwhile we are endeavouring to get the Apartment’s AC Unit fully operational. sorry for you inconvinience. Alvaro

Apartment was festive & luxurious at best location

We felt relaxed as soon as we arrived at this beautiful apartment. It was very clean, exotic and tastefully decorated with all the thoughtful extras provided. All the furniture was very comfortable and new. The location was the best in Darwin and just outside your door are different restaurants to suit everyone. The owner was also honest and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay in Darwin and plan to come back and stay here again.

Fabulous place to stay

The apartment was fabulous, we were very comfortable and content. Teapot, dishwasher, washing machine, parking, air conditioning and overhead fans, the egg chair on the verandah was a winner, . The views are beautiful and diverse all of the day, from sunrise, to watching the people playing volleyball, playing on the aqua park and the general goings on around the lagoon. The restaurants on the waterfront are yummy, an evening walk around the lagoon is lovely. Can’t wait to go back.

Short time in PARADISE

10/10 Rating for the communication from the property manager. The neighbours in the complex were very lovely people and private. The apartment was something else!! A lot of room, and there was nothing more you needed except your clothes. We had 9 night staying there, I wanted to move in permently. But unfortunately needed to go back to reality no fly back home to Melbourne.
