If we ever return to Darwin this is the only place we will be staying.
No, it's not 5 star but the location more than compensates.
We really enjoyed the 5 nights we spent in our apartment and were so grateful to the staff member who made suggestions when I phoned to book.
These staff members were just as helpful during our stay.
Our unit was quiet, clean and had a comfortable bed and good climate control which is all we ever ask for in holiday accommodation.
I am sure this is available in a number of properties in Darwin however Cullen Bay, and the views from the apartment, were stunning.
You can walk to the markets or enjoy coffee and cake, fish and chips, seafood buffets, Indian and Greek cuisine or catch the ferry to the Tiwis virtually outside your apartment building. We did all of these things and loved the fact they were so accessible.
The only complaint we had was the huge, heavy, outdoor dining setting on our balcony.
It was unyielding and took up most of the outdoor area however this problem is specific to the unit and in no way the fault of the property.
We so enjoyed our stay and are already planning a return visit next May and will request the same unit - despite the outdoor setting!
