We spent three nights at Banubanu in one of the five bungalows and the experience was one to remember! The staff were all friendly, attentive and professional. Nothing was too much trouble and the food was amazing. Attention to detail stands out at this retreat and I would highly recommend it for a memorable getaway.

Had a lovely day out. Helen was very helpful and friendly. One of the very few places where we could swim in the ocean - they have a beautiful beach, turquoise water, kayaks. The main pavilion has magnificent high views over the Arafura Sea. Restaurant quality seafood lunch was delicious.
Highly recommended day out from Nhulunbuy.

Hi NBCooma,
Thank you for your review and coming across to Bremer island for one of our Day Trips, they are very popular as an additional one day attraction for visitors who have limited time when visiting the region.

We have just spent 4 nights at this fantastic resort - it was an amazing experience. From the moment we were picked up from the Nhulunbuy airport, driven to the boat and out to the island, nothing was too much trouble. Helen and Trevor were friendly and approachable and always ready to answer our questions.
Our accommodation in the penthouse was perfect - comfortable bed, ensuite, quality linen, a large deck overlooking the beautiful Arafura Sea. We could walk down to the beach to swim, snorkel over the coral or just relax under a beach shelter. There are walks around the island and over to the western beach.
The staff were always friendly and accommodating - Romi and Lenny in the dining area, Andrew and Sean preparing delicious meals and Shane, who made Stephen’s holiday by taking him to many fly fishing hotspots!
I cannot recommend a visit to this beautiful resort highly enough, you will be so well looked after.

My husband and I stayed at this beautiful beach retreat on Bremer Island in April 2021. Our accommodation was in a spectacular beachfront bungalow on the Western Cove, literally a few meters to the beach. Our bungalow included a very comfortable bed, ensuite and lounge area as well as a deck which over looked the beach. The owners/hosts were very accommodating, friendly, and always on hand to satisfy our needs. The food was amazing. The atmosphere was all about rest and relaxation while soaking in the view. We can highly recommend this holiday Retreat to anyone. There was absolutely nothing we did not like about our whole experience.

Banubanu is an amazing beach retreat on lovely Bremer Island. Just a quick boat trip from the mainland you find yourself in paradise. With cute beachside bungalows and amazing hosts, you can't ask for more. The staff and owners go out of their way to make your experience one of a kind. From pool/beachside cocktails, 5 star food to fishing expeditions, the entire experience was sublime. Pure relaxation, I can't rate this highly enough.

Room tip: Phone reception is available but more limited with optus (but honestly just forget about the world while here). There is one boat trip in (8am) and out (leaving 3pm)
