Best location in darwin

The apartment was very clean. The location is absolutely fabulous. Restaurants galore of every kind. The lagoon and wave pool fantastic for swimming. An easy short walk to the cbd via the boardwalk. The only thing I would replace is the towels, they’re becoming sad. Would definitely stay again

Great family apartment in perfect location

We (two stubbies 8+10 and two long-necks) stayed for a week during spring hols. The apartment was absolutely perfect for us. Clean, well maintained, everything you need but no crazy luxury (no need to worry you break or stain something, but free WiFi, smart telly and balcony with BBQ) and in perfect location right in the middle of the Waterfront precinct. Lagoon, wave pool and ca 20 restaurants and cafes directly at your feet. Greg and Jenet made the stay super easy. When we accidentally locked ourselves out Jenet helped us in about 5min. We couldn't be happier with our choice.

Excellent location

The flat looked better than the photos. Ideal for two couples or family. Location is great for the waterfront and cafes. Ten minute walk into town. Bit of an issue with one of the bathrooms but assume this will be fixed. Greg and family"s communication was excellent and very understanding when one of the group tested positive and had to leave the apartment.
