Saw a lot of negative reviews about cleanliness, but it wasnt a problem during our visit. Staff were good, the room was basic but modern and clean, the bar and pool area were clean and in good upkeep, food was fine.

Love the bistro/bar!
ADELL, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was a very clean and pretty modern cabin (queen deluxe i think) with everything you need apart from a cooktop. But the restaurant on site was good for dinner, nothing special but your average sort of pub meals. Great location to base from to go to all the Kakadu sites.
David, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

An unexpected amazing experience staying for two nights with brilliant services, cleaningness of the room, bathroom, kitchen as well.
Lydia, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful pool area, very well equipped and comfortable cabins. I think it’s the best option in Kakadu by far.
Martha, 4-night trip

Reasonable accommodation in Kakadu

Everything was provided as expected in a tourist park. Nothing exceptional but given the isolation of this part of Australia we were well satisfied.
Bruce, 2-night trip

Fantastic pool and great food. Fast service.

8/10 Very good

The lodge is in a good location handy to activities at Kakadu. There is a supermarket in Jabiru, but it also good that there is an onsite restaurant.
Judith, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Quiet at night and Bistro is good but cabin accomodation very basic for a $200 a night fee. Bathroom in particular needs an update.
Cabin interior
Lynne, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stayed in an ensuite cabin. It was newly built and was perfect. The pool area is amazing with a beautiful big pool, large grassed area and lots of seating. We ate at the pool bar and the food was amazing. The young lady who checked us in was lovely but the the other young lady in reception was particularly unhelpful. Worth visiting the visitor centre and the lake in Jabiru

Cabin was what we needed for our stay. Bit tricky with the shower, as it felt like the floor under was starting to rot away. Made it out safely :-)

We had a cabin & it was excellent. Very clean, tidy. Private bathroom & coffee making facilities. Bed was roomy & very comfortable. Utilised the pool & laundry facilities and ate at the bistro. Food was great & an acceptable menu/choice. Grounds were clean & tidy and staff were friendly.
