We loved exploring the area and the yellow river cruise was fantastic

It was suitable for purpose. Clean and had what we needed for our stay. Very busy resort so a bit of a ‘fight’ to use facilities.

Not sure, it was extremely expensive and a very basic room. The food and drink were ridiculously expensive, I understand you have a captive audience but …. The staff were very friendly and working under extreme pressure with such huge numbers they did a great job

Good experience but extremely expensive.

Liked our Eco Retreat but disappointed facilities were so far away. Pool was wonderful and enjoyed a delicious meal in Mimi’s Restaurant.

Staff very frazzled. Arrived at 2.00 and told by boy I shop to come back at 3.00 to Reception counter. Did this only to be told to check in in the shop where we had been before. When we went to use the facilities the door code would not work at either end of the building. Husband had to go and find a maintenance man which took a while and we understand they had been having difficulties with these locks for a while - not good enough as concerned what would happen if we couldn’t access them during the night.

Enjoyed our time there, the staff were lovely and the atmosphere was relaxed.

Continental breakfast had a good variety and was enjoyable. Good value.

The shower leaked onto the outside floor. Food and drink options at Barra bar were limited at times. The food vans were not operating.

Great stay in the middle of Kakadu!

Room was a good size for the 2 of us and very comfortable and peaceful. Lovely little outdoor terrace.

Restaurant was good but could do with a few more lunchtime options.

A very relaxing oasis in a harsh environment.

Excellent breakfast choice. Ideally situated for yellow water cruise. Luxurious linen. Air conditioning great. Liked the trees.

Cost prevented us from staying longer. So we could have explored more of the area.

It could be better for the price.

The room is spacious. Air-conditioning is powerful for the hot weather. Bed is comfy. There is a little convenient store in the hotel. A variety of tea in the room.

Water in the shower box leaks into the toilet area. Moldy edges in the shower box. For the price I paid, I didn't expect to have no WiFi in the room. WiFi was only available in the reception and the bar.

It's all about the location and the food is SUPERB!

The rooms were very comfortable and the friendliness of the staff was fantastic. What we most liked about staying here was the food at Mimi's Restaurant. We tried every meal on the menu and it was a knockout. We rated them a 10/10.

we didn't get face washers or a bath mat for the shower

Schön, aber nicht günstig!

Schöne, offenbar gut geführte Lodge allein mitten in der Wildnis. Hübsche, zweckmäßig eingerichtete Cottages.

Wohl wegen der absoluten Alleinstellung der Lodge sind die Kosten sowohl für die Unterkunft als auch insbesondere für die von der Lodge durchgeführten Bootstouren recht hoch.

We enjoyed the stay, probably just an update of bathrooms is a must - the rest may be out of their control but that’s fo

Pool was great, reception area and close to cruise

Rooms were quite small for a family of 4, showers were average and leaked. It was end of wet season so lots of bugs (not their fault). Couldn’t eat in outdoor restaurant without being inundated with bugs. Food was overpriced aswell

Nice location overpriced

Overpriced, it was a bit disappointing considering it was the off season. Due to a highway closure we were unable to reach the hotel on the first night of our stay, it was impossible to get through to reception to let them know that we would be able to get there. I am aware a few other traveler's had similar concerns

Didn't want to leave it was so good.

We loved everything about this place, the staff, facilities, restaurant, pool and especially our room. We visited the Cultural Center (excellent), went for a boat trip (both fun and educational) and though it was the wet season, loved every minute of being in Kakadu.

Fantastic!

Don't forget join-in Yellow river cruise. It was unforgettable experience for me. And birds, insects and animal singing through the night read you to the ancient dream. Then you can learn about Aboriginal culture here. Visit culture center, Eva and Mako will help you much. Thanks my friends!

If we have more options for food here, experience get more deeper. How about bush tucker cooking? Oh and one more thing, Roo burgers meat should be minced and add more bush spice. NOT add Worcestershire sauce! If you so, It will be become your signature cooking. Trust me.

Nice place, overpriced!

It's a great location to stay at if you have booked the Yellow Water cruises..Very convenient.Room is comfortable but no toaster or plates, bowls, cutlery if you want to make your own breakfast

Very overpriced for what is a basic motel room. You are paying for the convenience of the location near the river cruises

A bit pricey, but for one night was terrific place to stay.

Really fun glamping setup and comfortable beds, great food options, location.

stayed in glamping tent, beautiful decor, cute and comfortable. Could park close to room and shared amenities with basic kitchen very close. Great food options for dining out plus stocked grocery store. Friendly staff helpful with advice on local attractions.

not ca big deal but was surprised not to have a tv in glamping room given the high end price. Shared amenities were good but the showers sharing draining between stalls was a bit unpleasant.

In comparison to other places and for what you get it is overpriced.

Not what I thought I was paying for

the facilities block for the glamping tents was very well set up with luxury toiletries in the bathrooms and a well-equipped common kitchen area. the restaurant was a bit expensive but i can highly recommend the kangaroo steak.

Ultimately this is just a campground, a very expensive one. I had hoped for a little piece of my own space in the bush for some peace and quiet to enjoy nature in my "outback retreat" glamping tent. When i arrived i was allocated a tent right opposite a kids playground and one of the swimming pools - for $500 a night? no way! when i asked to change to another tent I was allocated apparently the only other option in the entire grounds, which was not far away from the original tent, but this time it had a lovely outlook of the large orange toilet block. it also turned out to be right near the loading dock for the restaurant facilities. there was beeping delivery trucks both mornings, 4WD's coming and going all day, and even a large tanker of some sort that sat idling right near my tent for what felt like ages on one of the mornings. the tents are also fairly close together so you have limited privacy and also have the noise from your neighbours and their children. i don't think it's a huge stretch to say my apartment in Sydney is probably more peaceful than my allocated tent at Cooinda Lodge was. Also, no wi-fi or phone reception, only Telstra 3G for those devices who have it, which would've been fine if there had been a bit of warning so i could let people know I'd be uncontactable for most of the next 2 days. just a really disappointing experience, especially for that price.

Lovely accommodation with everything provided

Lovely setting and very clean facilities.

A bit too much like a holiday camp but fortunately our tents were far enough away . Food a bit hit and miss - finished quite early and quality could be better

It’s a good choice for staying here to do the sunset cruise.

It’s very handy for going to the billabong cruise. The bed is very comfortable.

The price is a bit high for a couple staying.

A lovely venue in the heart of Kakadu and a great spot to base yourself when exploring the area. Food options are limited and very expensive, especially when staying for a couple of days.

Very good

We stayed in the "glamping room". Our tent was on the outskirts which meant that it was closer to the bush and quieter, however further from the amenities block. Depending on your preferences, this could be something to consider when booking and requesting a specific tent. We had dinner in the restaurant and were really impressed with the tasting plate for two which showcased local produce with barramundi, crocodile, buffalo and local relishes and spices. Also the best place to stay for the Yellow River Cruises which leave from the carpark here, especially if you are taking the sunrise cruise which I highly recommend as the birdlife is at its best at this time of day, the middle of the day cruises are too hot. I'm told, however, if you want to see buffalo, they are best seen on the sunset cruise (maybe take both sunrise and sunset!).

We had trouble opening the amenities block which requires a passcode. Some of the numbers were sticky and hard to use at times (which is only really an issue if you are in a hurry).
