A great place to stay

Convenient, clean and well priced! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Diggers Rest. The unit was extremely well equipped and Janette was so easy to deal with particularly as we had travelled from the other side of Australia. We made good use of the outdoor area with its BBQ and tropical decor. A home away from home!

Nice and Cozy Place in Broome

The room was very clean well equipped for cooking. Without a car or scooter it is a little distant from food and attractions but walkable. It was very quiet at night and quite comfortable.

July 2022 stay

Lovely cabin with all the needs for your stay. Very well equipped. Very quiet part of the park with lovely neighbours. Awesome value for money compared with all the resorts, which were prohibitive price wise to us, in the high season. Thanks Janette and Neil for a lovely stay.

Nice stay

Quiet location, very well equipped and comfortable. It was very suitable for what we were doing in Broome, we enjoyed our stay and would come back. A minor negative about the outside "en suite". Without a spare key for the self-locking door, it was a concern that we could inadvertently lock the keys inside.

Diggers Rest is a Winner

We loved it here. Communication with Janette was great. From the minute we walked in we couldn’t have been happier. It smelt so nice and very fresh and clean with draws and cupboards stocked with everything. The bed was comfy and the quality of the bedding was nice. A large ice/water fridge. We also loved the quiet location and privacy of the site.

Just bring a few shorts, teehirts and bathers

A very comfortable unit within a caravan park. Most attractions a 5 minute drive. Everything that you need is in the cabin. Toaster, air fryer, coffee machine, washing machine. There is absolutely nothing that you will need

Vacating property

Property was good all though I read the terms washing all the linen before you leave is not the way to finish a holiday when you are vacating at 7:30 which means your up at 5:30 to leave it in the condition the owner expects

Thank you Colin for your review, we will have a look at that and have looked at that unfortunately that would be an extra cost and burden to you as the guest. You can bring your own linen if you wish. You can ring us any time at all with any queries and the option would’ve been we could’ve had it cleaned and linen wash for you at your cost. Kind regards Neil and Janette

Great stay in cosy cabin and close to everything Broome has to offer. .

We stayed at Diggers Rest within the Broome vacation village for two weeks. We are regular visitors to Broome and this place did not disappoint . The cabin had everything we needed and more - the decor was great and the place very comfortable . There is an outside ensuite but we got used to that and it wasn’t a big deal. The pool was great too. The park itself was very quiet just on the outskirts of Broome and very close to Gantheaume point , Entrance Point , Fishing club and the Broome golf club. There are electric scooters you can hire just outside the gate and a bus stop too for anyone without a vehicle. I can highly recommend the stay and the host Janette had great communication.

Nice basic cabin.

Nice cabin. Basic but functional small outside space. Toilet and shower located external to cabin, but this was as described. Park location bit of a way out of town and not really near anything. Park was very quiet when we stayed. As per what seems the norm with this type of stay now, you are expected to do all the cleaning and any laundry so not sure what the service fee covers. However not bad value by Broome pricing.

Thank you for review, the service fee has nothing to do with me at all it’s from the company you booked with fees. We don’t add on a cleaning charge as it is leave it as you found it, BUT always welcome to call and we can organise a cleaner at a cost to you. Being that Broome is on a peninsula we are actually closer to all popular tourist attraction than Cable Beach, I always recommend that if you want to go to cable Beach daily to swim you would be best to stay there.

Broom holiday

Nice unit made from 2 , one large one small shipping container. Has got full size kitchen appliances . It is some distance away from centre and Cable Beach so need a car to get around. Tip if departing early better to pay for cleaning as it takes a while to do all the required chores.

We enjoyed our stay and liked the proximity to Guanthame Point.

The expectations to do all the cleaning was rediculous! We had a tour at 2pm in Fitzroy Crossing and had to get up at 4:30 to get the washing on the line! The machine is small and it took 3 loads! Washing floors with no mop? We thought we were on holiday but the leaving rules didn’t make it seem that way! Would rather pay more and not be expected to do all the housework!

Hi Jo, thank you for your review. The terms and conditions were made very clear On the website. We have made ourselves available to you at any time if you had a problem, this is the first we have heard of any issue you had, which is disappointing, it’s unfortunate that you couldn’t plan your time to fit with the terms and conditions.

Great stay in Beoome

The place was nice and clean. Good value for the money. Neighborhood is quiet at night and well located. Kitchen is fully complete which is really nice. The only thing we had to adjust was to have the toilet outside of the property, but you adjust to it. Recommended for budget friendly holiday.
