Relaxing Stay in the Heart of Kakadu

Cooinda Lodge is in a fantastic location—perfect for exploring the beauty of Kakadu National Park. We really enjoyed the good food on offer and loved spending time on the deck, which was a peaceful spot to unwind and take in the surroundings. A great base for a relaxing and nature-filled getaway!

The air-conditioned lodges were very nice with an outdoor sitting area for each one. It was convenient to the Yellow River cruises when we visited in April. The main pool was noisy and meant for families, while there was limited seating at the smaller, quieter pool. The main restaurant, Mimi’s, served wonderful food for dinner, but the hot breakfast there was outrageously priced. At the outdoor restaurant, the food was just ok and they took advantage of the remote location by charging us $18 for a pint of beer. The Margherita pizza had no basil on it, just the dried herb. Staff at the shop/tour kiosk were very nice, although our room wasn’t ready at check in time and we had to chase down the staff member who had promised to call us when it was. Overall though, a good place to stay in Kakadu.

Our stay was during the wet, off-season so we did not have the property when it was at its best. However, the staff were very friendly but dining options were very limited - especially for me as a vegetarian - and the place had a slight overall shabbiness which means it’s a 3 overall from me.

Cooinda was a beautiful clean well kept resort. The lodge we had was really modern and comfortable. Comfy bed and pillows, good air con, fridge, kettle, tea and coffee etc.
The resort was big enough to go for a walk in the mornings and a fantastic swimming pool to do laps. The restaurant provided a good breakfast with a good coffee machine, a juicer to make fresh orange juice and a vegetable juicer maker also. The restaurant in the evening also had quality meals from barramundi, steak, pasta, pizzas, seafood etc. The staff throughout the resort were always pleasant and helpful. Really loved our stay here and would highly recommend it.

A bit over priced!

The hotel rooms are situated in a beautiful garden setting. Due to remote location, the room and restaurant prices were the most expensive where we have visited in NT. For the price we paid, the room was very basic. Small bathroom sink, leaky shower , no indoor sitting area or sitting space at all. However, the outdoor sitting was pleasant. The room is clean, not big but with comfortable beds, instant coffee and tea bags.

It was not revealed to us at time of booking. No toilet or hand basin in unit. For over $470 for one nights use with a check in time of 3pm with check out at 10am this does not equal a full day. Toilet facilities were a walk through leaf covered grounds during the night with a faulty key pad at the amenities block. Overall a very disappointing booking and stay.

Comfortable property, long wait for check in. Pool area could be maintained better and more lounge chairs provided. Longer food eatery hours, not everyonr wants burgers or pizza. Glamping tents are comfortable and the shared facilities are very clean and well laid out. Do require your own crockery and cutlery if using the cooking facilities. Nice family environment.

Very poor value for money

On arrival floor dirty with fine red dust, broken blind, fridge door shelves missing, outdoor light not working and no wifi in the cabin. Obliging staff when problems reported, but for $500 a night, it should be perfect when one arrives. The restaurant is the only place open until 4:30pm(?) when the bistro/bar opens and provides limited offerings and is expensive.
Can't eat in the cabin because there are no facilities, not even a microwave and there is no table or chairs inside necessitating the bringing of the outdoor table and chairs inside, when one wanted to sit anywhere other than the bed.
The daily room service did not include sweeping, vacuuming or mopping the floor (and no broom is provided).
Wifi is available around the restaurant and bar, and I noticed that wifi in the cabin is available in the most expensive rooms, so it can be provided to the next level of rooms if management wishes to do so.
Both pools were great and the cabins otherwise comfortable. Staff were friendly and responsive.

Too many problems and limitations to justify $500 per night.

The large pool was great & we loved the adult pool, it was nice & cool.
Access to Yellow waters is so convenient at Cooinda & we love Yellow Waters.
The food at Mimi restaurant was delicious too.

Unhappy about room not being serviced for the 3 days we stayed, especially as we needed a bath mat & bath towel & tissues.
We did ask 3 times on the 2nd day. The third time the reception lady gave me 2 pool towels, a box of tissues & a drink voucher each, which was nice but we still didn't get serviced the next day.
When leaving, the staff member asked about our stay & I mentioned about the room. She said they were busy & other things were priorities.

For a quiet time of year, they looked after us. Unfortunately the boat ramp was closed.
The staff made an extra effort to accommodate our preferences even tho the Wotif notes didn’t come through on our booking. So Wotif was the only let down, however it was cheaper then booking direct.

I stayed at the glamping tent. It’s actually pretty nice, and the shared bathroom facilities were well above the standards i,ve experienced. It’s just that the property is in a monopoly situation so is very expensive for what you get.

There is only one dining option in Cooinda and that’s in the lodge’s restaurant or bar - and both are average tasting while very much over-priced.

Really enjoyed our stay. Great resort. Really like the glamping tent accommodation. Staff were all really good. Has a really good vibe. The restaurant food is good enough for remote location. Buffet breakfast acceptable for a few days, but would get sick of lack of variety after that. Shared bathroom facilities could be cleaner, but desperately need ventilation as it was beyond hot using it at night due to humidity. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely stay again.

Cooinda is in a great location. The glamping tents are very nice, although you have to use a shared bathroom block because the tents don't have running water, and you are among trees with very colorful and loud birds flying around. That's very cool. The restaurants and pools are good although there were a couple of strange glitches. Staff replaced shower get with moisturiser in all the showers one day for no apparent reason and the meal times were a bit limited given the schedules. Breakfast didn't start until 6,30 for instance which wasn't convenient given the scheduling of day tours. But overall this is a great spot and highly recommended.

We enjoyed our stay at Cooinda Lodge. The proximity to the Yellow Waters cruise and the Warradjan Aboriginal Cultural Centre was very convenient for an older couple. The drive to Nourlangie Rock and Anbangbang billabong was a bit far but worth the drive.
Being unused to the heat, the pools were a very welcome respite.

Filthy bathrooms

Rooms were basic but met needs.
However, bathroom was filthy, moldy shower, hair from past guests, just really grubby. I cleaned the shower before we used. Very obviously grubby- pink and black mould growing around edges and tiles. Could be easily resolved but seems no one can be bothered to spend 10 minutes and clean properly. Very off puttting. Unlikely we would return and a shame as we are local NT residents and good for a weekend break. No excuses for lazy cleaners and I would expect better for the price

A very nice property, stayed in one of their units, and would have no issue recommending a stay here. Unfortunately one of the restaurants was closed, but the other, Mimis offered a reasonable selection. Accommodation, neat, tidy and clean, the site presentation is very pleasant. For me the only down side is the exorbitant price they charge for fuel, fully understand, it needs to be a \"little\" more expensive, but 50 cents a liter dearer than Katherine and Darwin, to me is simply \"price gouging\". Apart from that, I would have no hesitation in staying again.

Overpriced

Stayed in glamping tents. The cleanliness of the shared amenities let the experience down…the first afternoon the female bathroom was filthy, drains blocked and stank - placed a complaint. Cleaning schedule in males noted there was to be 4x daily but this was not completed even according to a record. Considering the price it was disappointing. We liked the free laundry, however it was also accessible by other guest staying at the lodge which meant queues. It relies on guests cleaning after themselves too heavily for the price being paid. The breakfast options are too limited for dietary requirements…would recommend take your own.
