The hotel is currently undergoing renovations. This hopefully will update rooms, facilities and overall presentation that at the moment it is lacking. The staff were respectful, kind and helpful, but they are dealing with not only the current disruption, but also guests reactions and issues. I would visit again once the current renovations has been completed.

The room was nice the food was poor. Not much of a choice. Each morning woken up bye noisy work men on there speaker phone. Flashing lights on work trucks. And the worse Casino i have been to. Glad I only booked four nights. Moved to a better and cheaper motel. I wouldn’t recommend staying there.

The pool is amazing, it has a sandy beach at one end and is huge with a swim up bar. Unfortunately we could not swim off the real beach just in front of the hotel as it was rainy season and there is a risk of salty crocodiles and box jelly fish. The casino is huge and a bit off putting. Most rooms are pretty basic but we were welcomed with a bottle of sparkling wine, which was most welcome. The rooms around the big pool are really great

Service very poor.
Staff not friendly and felt like we were annoying.
Ordered room service twice. After 1.45hrs called them and reminded them we were waiting. Still didn’t turn up so we abandoned and went elsewhere to spend our money. On the way out of the hotel I notified front desk of our experience and to cancel the order and he didn’t even apologise.
Wouldn’t stay there again.

The pool was lovely
We used the lagoon as it was a Sunday and the infinity was a bit too busy
The lagoon was so relaxing and quiet
Our room was clean and comfortable
It just had a bit of a funny smell but it could have been cleaning product not sure. We let reception know on check out and they were so good about it and would have it seen too.
Over all great stay. Staff were great too!

Whilst the property is in a good location, Room 81 is right next to the back of house service area and noise from staff entering/exiting the door and activities in this area travelled through to the room.

The Sandbar is great for casual dining although is not open on Mon/Tue/Wed evenings, il Piatto is closed on Mon/Tue evenings and Dragon Court is closed on Tue/Wed evenings which if you are staying at the hotel in the first half of the week limits your choice of venue to The Vue which is below average in food options and quality - plus throughout the evening you are constantly interrupted with announcements from the Casino into the restaurant of \"member number ..... you have three minutes to claim [$500, $1000 ...] prize money...:

Room was tired & outdated but clean, cleaning staff always smiling & friendly. Markets Thursday & Sunday evenings but no shopping options close by. Free shuttle to some main attractions close by would be helpful for guests. Staff at desk a little vague about sightseeing options for tourists, not helpful when we asked.
Lovely pool, pool bar very nice but small. The area around the pool bar should be adults only, no children splashing & yelling around customers or taking up the stools. The pool bar staff are lovely considering during our stay, we observed two males on seperate days, being rude & very disrespectful to the staff making drinks. The staff did very well ignoring the insults. It didn’t appear there was any security close by to ask the men to leave. Overall our stay was pleasant, we weren’t there for the casino so not sure we would stay there again.

Enjoyed the property and the facilities. Lots to like about rooms with ocean view and the Darwin sunsets. Staff were friendly and polite and the rooms were clean.
Everything was great until a little thing was not right. In my room the tv was not working. Unfortunate but it is. However when raised with the reception desk was assured it would be fixed. After returning 2 hours later from dinner it was not fixed and the message from front staff was confusing (I think they forgot) Solution was to change rooms but unfortunately went from a room with ocean view to carpark view (and smaller) and had to move myself. From this experience they miss the mark as a premium venue and settle for above average. Attention to detail is important. Firstly check the TV (there was a reason it was switched off a the wall). Then if do need to inconvenience the customer provide as much help as possible and at least maintain the level of room.

Paid 2k for a room that had the worst pillows and the bed was a rock with no bedhead aswell. Had a horrible view and also had staff try to enter room when I said im getting dressed please wait 5minutes, then 1 minute later they tried to enter again. Should of got a room on the lagoon pool if you ask me. Thats where its worth it. The facilities around the joint are elite but if you want a good night sleep Id consider other options.

Walking path along beach front is lovely and amazing to watch sunset. Rooms were quiet and couldn’t really hear neighbours. Drinks a little pricey but it is a resort.

The property has lovely amenities including the infinity pool, the lagoon pool, several on site dining establishments and large rooms.
Reception was attentive and assisted with all queries. Housekeeping did a terrific job in keeping the rooms clean and tidy.
I was a bit disappointed by the limited items for guest use in the room. Very limited options in the provided tea/coffee supplies. Hard to control bulk dispensing pumps in the shower and basin.
The bed, though large, was not comfortable and was not wheel locked in place. Just a few things would have made it a great experience.
Overall, a nice place to spend 1-2 days while exploring the area.

The property is tired. there was what looked like mould in the shower. The toilet seat doesn't have the rubber buffers underneath it, so moves around a bit. The bathroom bin is chipped. The tiled floor is unusual, and the bed moves around on this hard floor. Room service took two calls to get it right, as I was transferred the first time to another number that never answered. Apart from this, generally, the staff were pleasant and efficient. Room service was quick and correct. I'm not returning.

Stay a few times here and it was always excellent.
