The outdoor areas of the hotel are looking run down. It’s a shame that security cannot be guaranteed in the car park. We had a boat and were advised to remove most of our contents of value. It is timely that consideration be given to an option for safe storage of items like boats overnight etc. The restaurant service was ok, however the food was lovely, as it was when we stayed in late April 2025. Check in was friendly and helpful.

Accommodation very good and convenient to visits the attractions of Kakadu. Restaurant closing times however do not reflect the activities in the area. Eg to be accepting last dinner orders at 8:15 pm is too early when guests have been out viewing sunsets 45 mins drive from the resort.

We had a great 2 night stay, yes it might be a bit tired in areas, but consider how remote this area is and it’s a very nice hotel. Rooms were clean, air cond and dehumidifier all working on arrival. Restaurant food was good, staff lovely and friendly. Stunning area to explore even with limits on what to do in wet season. Hotel pool a bonus and we could park right outside our room.

The staff were super friendly, helpful and lovely. Buffet dinner was delicious. Not your typical mass catered buffet, less selection but quality good food. Breakfast buffet could have done with an egg station, otherwise was good too. Room was comfortable, if not a bit dated. Bathrooms need a bit of an update/revamp. Decorative furnishings (pillows/bed throws) were stained and unpleasant. Overall a pleasant stay.

The reception area and staff were welcoming however that’s where it ends. The rooms were outdated and tired. Bathroom and entry areas have not been updated since the last time we visited over 10 years ago. No room service unless you stay for over 3 days. Fairly poor considering the amount of money you pay per room.

This hotel has seen MUCH better days and was not worth the money. The room was out-dated, with paint peeling off all doors, ring marks on bathroom sinks and lamp shades covered in grubby fingerprints (one lamp which was broken). The shower head was so calcified that water went every direction but down and the fridge sporadically kicked in loudly all throughout the night. The buffet restaurant was good ($50/head per adult) but didn’t offer a huge selection. The buffet breakfast (included in the $388 per night cost) was ok but all hot options had run out at 8:30am and so we had to wait 30 mins for it to be replenished. Honestly, next time I’d camp

We were disappointed with our stay. For the amount we paid, beds were not made. Bins were not emptied in our room - we stayed 3 nights and were overflowing by the end of our stay. Towels were dirty and not changed each day. Our dishes (2 cup were used) not cleaned, just turned upside down and put away again. Toilet paper was running on rations as not replaced and nobody in reception to assist. The fridge was tiny so we couldn't keep enough bottled water cold for the next day. Overall the room was dirty.. The pool was nice but we noticed some paper in the bottom which wasnt cleaned up the entire time.. The restuarant didnt cater to children when we were there. Only 3 of everything was provided when we booked and paid for 4 people.. overall very disappointing stay. I understand there isnt much competition in Jabiru but the amount they charge is ridiculous for what is provided.

The property is older and could do with a refurb There aren’t many options for lunch and dinner in the area and the restaurant and bar is very understaffed but all staff were lovely despite this. Wanted to eat lunch poolside and were told this wasn’t allowed - when the menu is basic burgers this seems bizarre Kakadu is incredible with lots to do
