One bedroom apartment at Darwin Waterfront
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!

2 Bedroom Apartment 'Drift Inn'
Great apartment, booked this for our daughter and son-in-law and 2 grandchildren as they are travelling around Australia at the moment, and wanted to give them a night away from the caravan. They had a lovely time in a great location, with plenty of room to move, and enjoyed a great nights sleep. Thanks Wade

One Bed apartment (13th floor)
Had a great stay at Muhammads place, in the city with great views, easy to access, a great host. Really good coffee just across the road as well! Would like to return next time I'm in town đ

Sky-high Waterfront Living across two Apartments
Great view, good location, close to activities, cafes etc. Worked well for a family due to adjoining room/apartment.

We had an amazing holiday staying at the Darwin Waterfront - location is absolutely perfect. Jeannie is a fantastic host that goes above and beyond to ensure your holiday is perfect. I would definitely book through her again.

Live Work Play Darwin Waterfront
Beautiful apartment with amazing views of the waterfront. It is in perfect location. Everything as listed on the advert. Host was very helpful with clear instructions to get in, and local recommendations. Will definitely look to stay again

Stylish apartment in heart of city
Great location, great host, clean & tidy. Nice spot to come and go from to cool off in between adventures. Car parking accessible.

Free Parking, 1 min walk to Waterfront Precinct
Great location at the Darwin waterfront. Apartment balcony was facing towards pool with obstructed views of lagoon. But nice & sunny in morning while partially shaded too. Best of both worlds.

Seabreeze Beach House, Spectacular Sunset Views
Had a great weekend away from Darwin. A big open space up stairs, lovely pool and of course the beautiful beach. We had a few kids and they loved the toys, pool and beach. the kitchen has everything you need and we all said we would go back there. Looking forward to it.

Water-Front Paradise: Pool - BBQ - Balcony Dining
My guests and I had a wonderful time staying at this property! The kayaks are a great thing to have and we thoroughly enjoyed the extra perk. The views are stunning as is the main bedroom and living area. Was also amazing to the BBQ which seems fairly new, thanks for having us!

Seaside Garden: Luxe Living at Sunset Beach
Fantastic stay. Spectacular sunsets every night from your private viewing in the lounge room. Was very easy to talk with host and check in and out couldnât be easier. Absolute gem of a place.

Room-Beautiful Bayview Townhouse - 5 mins to CBD
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.

Cullen Bay Villa
We had a great experience during our second stay at this property in Cullen Bay. Justine provides a comfortable home equipped with everything needed for an enjoyable stay. It was relaxing taking a dip in the pool and we enjoyed exploring the nearby shops, restaurants, and marina. The location is very convenient, just a short drive from Darwin city and the waterfront. We appreciated having parking available for our car, and using Uber was a hassle-free option for those without one. We would recommend this property for a nice stay in Darwin.

Kate has a very nice place to stay in Darwin! She checked in with me several times to see how things were going and offered some tips for the city and region. A beautiful view from her balcony as well. I highly recommend!

Amazing Beach Sunsets Nightcliff Foreshore
Fantastic spot to explore Darwin! Amazing location in Nightcliff, close to everything you need!

Darwin Waterfront 2-bedroom apartment
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.

Darwin Waterfront Luxury Apartment
Excellent place to stay, right on the waterfront. Quiet and peaceful, easy to walk into town. High quality apartment and nothing too much trouble to sort out if something needed. Would highly recommended you to stay there if you visiting Darwin

Peninsula Bliss: Sea View ~ Private Balcony Dining
Loved staying here! Beautiful apartment, great location and very comfortable beds. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this apartment

CBD Esplanade Location - Quiet & Comfortable
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
We had a great stay at Swornimaâs 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 :)
