One bedroom apartment at Darwin Waterfront

Sarah-JaneRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Martina's place is ideally situated on the waterfront, just a short walk from the city, offering a gorgeous sunset view. Martina's communication was great, keeping me informed with Information every step of the way. The apartment was well stocked with coffee and a variety of herbs and spices. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

We love staying on the Nightcliff foreshore its a great location. Christine's apartment was a bit small for the 3 of us but it was clean and tidy. Christine was very helpful and for a couple its a lovely place to stay.

Room-Beautiful Bayview Townhouse - 5 mins to CBD

EricRating, 5 stars10 months ago
Always a great place to stay in Darwin! Denielle makes sure that everything is provided and the home is clean and comfortable. It is "over and above" most AirBnb accommodation. Denielle is also incredibily friendly and any guest would feel immediately comfortable in her home. The location is quiet, secure and a short bus-ride, UBER or taxi in to the Darwin CBD or Waterfront. Still one of the best AirBnb's that I have stayed at, and I am likely to re-visit.

Beach Villa: private beach access + plunge pool!

AmandaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Very peaceful location for mid-January. Great view to the ocean. Very spacious apartment spread out over 2 levels. Super comfy beds. The plunge pool was much cooler after an overnight storm. The photos suggest the apartment is more modern and lighter than we experienced. Although many of the local restaurants were not open, we enjoyed the quieter time of year. Found plenty of delicious food places in Darwin CBD, which is less than 10 minute drive away. Leanne was a great host, very quick to respond to our messages and sorted out the issue with wifi connection quickly.

Cullen Bay Villa

SarahRating, 5 stars2 days ago
If you're looking for accommodation in a peaceful part of Darwin, with restaurants, cafe, and an ice cream shop just steps away this is it. The views are stunning, with the ocean and lawns on one side and the marina on the other. The villa is so well-equipped, it really felt like a home away from home. The pantry was stocked with everything you could possibly need—and more. There were games, books, streaming platforms on the TVs, pool and ocean gear, picnic supplies, yetis, you name it! The master bedroom bed was the most comfortable I’ve ever slept on, and relaxing on the balcony to watch the wet season lightning show was a treat. Justine was an incredible host, always quick to respond to my questions before check-in and making sure our stay was unforgettable. We were even greeted with beverages and some of Darwin's finest local chocolates in the fridge, such a lovely surprise. Justine’s villa was absolutely amazing, we really loved our stay and can't wait to book again!

Darwin Waterfront 2-bedroom apartment

LukeRating, 5 stars30 months ago
Location of the property was ideal, having all the eateries a plus, the Lagoon and Wave Pool close by, as well as the Wharf Precinct. Would like to see a cleaner balcony for our next visit. Overall the accommodation was lovely, if it wasn't for the 4pm check in time we would have rated our experience 4 1/2 stars.

CBD Esplanade Location - Quiet & Comfortable

JudithRating, 5 stars6 months ago
Lyall was extremely easy to deal with and was very supportative in accommodating some last minute changes to our booking, which I can't thank him enough for. The unit was lovely, having been recently fully refurbished, it was fresh and clean. There were many extra's which had been thought of to make our stay enjoyable, from the coffee machine, condiments, milk in the fridge, beach towels and even an esky. I would highly recommend this place, it was quiet and secure, walking distance to the shops, and across the road from the water. The building is gated with security access, and also had secure parking. We will definately book here again. Such a great place to stay.

Private and Cosy Room

NatalieRating, 5 stars6 months ago
We had a great stay at Swornima’s place, it was very close to the main town centre and the apartment was modern and clean. The only thing is the bed felt a bit small for two adults and the mattress was dipping on the sides. Apart from that we had everything we needed and the hosts were lovely :)
