Homestays em Northern Territory, Australia

Jabiru is a convenient location to stay in Kakadu and is cheaper than Cooinda. We spent two nights here after coming up from Cooinda via Jim’s Falls on the first day and then visiting the rock paintings and lookout at Ubirr and Cahill’s Crossing before going onto Darwin. From the road look for the sign saying Kakadu Lodge not Aurora. At checkin you are given the gate code. The lodge is arranged in concentric circles of camping / caravan sites around the pool and bar/ restaurant centre which is the place to relax and eat. We were issued a slip of paper as a guest with the right to order alcohol. There is a very small shop onsite but a drive into Jabiru will eventually find the bigger supermarket though it took us a while to find it. We stayed at the Lodge double bunk room with shared facilities. These motel style rooms are close to the centre with ours in two rows of rooms around common bathroom facilities with cars parked at ends only. They didn’t have ensuites. We stayed in room 20 where we were next to a camp kitchen and the communal bathrooms. Despite that we didn’t find it noisy and we found the location convenient and you can walk on pavement to both facilities. There is no wifi but we had Optus phone signal. Our fairly basic room had tiled floors and cinder block walls with tall ceilings. I liked the cane motif on the desk, wardrobe and chair. There were also two plastic chairs outside. There was a small corner TV, kettle, mini-fridge with a jug of water, milk, coffee, tea, sugar, cups, glasses, tea towel and tissues. The split system air con and fan were quiet and efficient. There was one double bed and a bunk bed with two singles with sheets and coverlets only but with two spare blankets if weight was needed and two extra pillows. Bed lights and double power points are above all beds, including top and bottom bunks, with another one with a power board above the fridge but no points near the desk. There was a hanging space with coat hangers. The room was supplied with towels, soap and small bottles of conditioning shampoo. The communal showers were hot and had good pressure. They consisted of two compartments so there was room to store clothes while showering. The laundry was $3 for the washing machines. The shared kitchen was well equipped with a two gas burner stove, gas lighter, microwave, sink, toaster oven, toasters, sandwich presses, kettle, pots, pans, crockery, condiments, dishwashing supplies, tea towels, BBQ utensils, cutlery, wok, pots, pans, and condiments. It had couches and other seating. Recycling bins are available. It was a bit expensive for shared facilities but that is the price you pay in Kakadu.

We stayed in the two bedroom apartment. This was the quirkiest place we stayed during our trip but this added to the Katherine experience. The kitchen had a great selection of crockery and cooking utensils and the bedrooms were super comfy. On our second night after a full day of sightseeing we opted to eat in and the lovely guy from reception brought it to the door. I had the chicken curry (delicious) and my husband the big burger and chips, thumbs up here also. The staff here worked really hard all the time and the accommodation reflects this. Thank you K-Town

We picked this park basically due to reviews and comments made, and were not disappointed. Very good park, clean with ablutions and other amenties clean and in good condition, Only issue is that toilet cubicles could be bigger so you doint have to straddle to bowlmto close the door, We found all staff we dealt with to be friendly and very helpful. Our site was a good size and easy to get into. We were their during Operation Pitch Black and were woken every moring just after 8:00am with the sound of screaming jets fighers taking off. It was awesome and we have plent of videos and photos. Caravan park is very close to airport runway which can make it noisy when the airforce take off, but we loved it. Location was a bit out of town, but we thought it was perfect. 15 minute drive tothe centre of Darwin. Loved our stay here and we will definately be booking here again when next in Darwin

Too good memories! ! ! The room is especially good. I like the type. There is a small balcony behind the forest. You can walk to the pier and the park while walking. The focus is on dinner and breakfast. No need to have a restaurant, there is an outdoor pool.
