Cullen Bay Villa

RaeleneRating, 5 stars1 day ago
Amazing location with beautiful sunsets! Watch the sun go down from the patio or join the locals and have drinks and nibblies on the grassed public area in front of villa. Bike paths make it easy to access Military Museum, Museum & Art Gallery, Mindel Beach markets, sunset at Ski Club, Casino and all the city sights. We hired electric bikes for the week from Phil at Bicycle Fix. Great restaurants within walking distance. The Villa was well appointed with absolutely everything you need for your stay and many surprise items that are not found at other homes (ie. fishing rods, kayaks, staple pantry and laundry items). Thanks for the special local gifts. Comfortable beds and relaxed furniture. Perfect for our annual adult family holiday (8 adults) with plenty of different areas to come together or have your own space. Thanks for sharing your home with us Justine and making our holiday in Darwin memorable. Everyone enjoyed their stay.

Welcome Homestay Bayside

RuthRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
First time in Darwin and glad we chose Richard’s apartment overlooking the marina at Cullen Bay. Very peaceful area, great restaurants and cafes all with amazing views of the ocean or marina all within close walking distance. 10 minute walk to Mindil Beach markets and the Casino. There are free buses to the city but we took Ubers - approx $12 and 7 minute ride. The apartment was clean and well furnished and the balcony overlooking the marina with views to the ocean was gorgeous. We are a couple and it was spacious for the two of us. Richard is a great host, clear and prompt comms, friendly and proactive. We would definitely stay again and recommend it.

Tropical Temira

PipRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Kathleen's home was absolutely perfect! So many nice touches, coffee, bath and pool towels and a welcome book, as well as excellent advice on parking for Mindil Beach Markets!! This location is also incredible as well - beautiful relaxed sunset spot, but still an insanely short drive or reasonable walk to everything :) I've already told my mum about it for when she comes up to visit!
