“This is one of the few places where I could imagine both honeymooning and holing up if apocalypse occurs and there is a nuclear winter to ride out..
With its four architect designed villas in a lush elegant and unexpected world of their own, Moonshadow is one of Darwin’s lovliest surprises.
Surrounding a tiered sandstone plunge pool, the villas feature coconut wood floors, teak furniture, splashes of suitably tropical art and the slow hypnotic swish of ceiling fans.
There are hints of Bali and a mouth-watering selection of Chinese Antiques, not least 300- year-old lacquered wedding cabinets featuring moments from the Chinese version of the Kama Sutra in gold leaf.
The city is just a short walk away, as is Mindl Beach and its’ sunset market, but it’s tempting to forget them all and loiter here. Darwin is hardly short of nice places to stay, but nowhere I have been comes close to touching Moonshadow”

Moonshadow is a destination and a Rainforest Experience

Travel should be adventure and luxury.. Moonshadow offers both. Hidden away in a valley of 80\' lush royal palms with birds and butterflies, privacy reigns supreme.
Incredibly, only minutes away from the vibrancy of Darwin City you are in an Oasis of tranquility and beauty. Wake to sunlight sparkling off the tropical rainforest or sleep to the soft sounds of palm fronds in the wind, with only the moon to cast a shadow over the pools.
Unique postion, nothing at all similar in Darwin - perhaps in Australia and you CAN have both. Unreal tropical surrounds unlike anything you have seen but close to a major thriving city. You do not have to travel miles, fly to isolated places. The best of both worlds is at Moonshadow. Luxury adventure packages available. Remember you can pay by credit card or by direct deposit.. We like to make it simple. Truly a home away from home NOT an anonymous hotel but a delightful tropical residence for your uninterrupted pleasure.
Credit cards do attract a small merchant surcharge but think of the Frequent Flyer points!

Guest Reviews

 
  • "Exquisitely appointed and decorated apartments . Very relaxed and helpful hosts made us feel at home . It was a wonderful base to explore the Top end and indulge in our passion for fishing . Great charters on Darwin Harbour and Barramundi fishing on Coroberie Billabong. It was wonderful to return 'home'each evening to this tropical oasis and 'plunge'into the pool."

  • "It was magnificant and fantastic I loved all the special attention to detail and how we could bring our beautiful Molly with us.We will love to stay again and again.Thank you Moya"

  • "Everyhing that was outlined in the website, was exactly as we found it - what a fantastic experience and a lovely relaxing time it was. The location is ideal - close to everything and far enough away. Well appointed. The daily gardener was always polite and paid attention to detail, whilst we hardly noticed the other guests. See you again soon"

  • "From the moment we stepped through the door we were in heaven!!! The vila is beautifully decorated and the surroundings so calm and tranquil you can't help but relax. We had the most wonderful stay and have definately recommended it to all our friends. Well done Peter and Moya, you have created a relaxing tropical oasis that was just what we needed."

  • "We visited Darwin for work and pleasure and found Moonshadow to be a fabulous place to be based for both. The photo's and description on the website is simply understated. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a great place to stay give Peter and Moya a call. It is well worth it......We have already booked for next year."

  • "We chose Darwin as a holiday destination to celebrate my husband's Birthday and our Wedding Anniversary.Instead of 'touring' the Top End , we decided to make Darwin our base and do day trips - all major attractions are easily accessible from Darwin . Our choice of "Moonshadow" for our accommodation was inspirational . Moya and Peter have captured the essence of tropical living in these magnificant villas , tucked away in a tropical garden wonderland .Our host's relaxed approach to their guests and their attention to detail in the decor made "Moonshadow" our HOME for our visit to Darwin . Besides visiting the usual tourist destinations such as Kakadu , we really enjoyed the FISHING . There are excellent 1/2 and 1 day charters on Darwin Harbour ( my husband's best catch was a 10kg Giant Trevalley ) and 1 day Barramindi Trips to places such as Corroboree Billabong on the Mary River. If you want to do your own thing , there are great wharves to fish from or you can hire your own boat for the day . After our 'exhausting' days activities . Moonshaow was a luxurious sanctuary to return to each evening and refresh ourselves . We felt like 'moving in' !"

  • "The perfect place to unwind after some bush bashing down the track and around the Top End. You'd think that heaven just fell on the earth in the form of a balinese garden. "You're in old java now, boss" And you can commission Peter to paint a balinese fantasy as well!"

  • "MoonShadow is the ultimate Darwin experience. Peter & Moya have created an oasis in the centre of Darwin where one cannot do anything but relax. Our villa was magnificent; rainfall shower, magnificent wooden gates on entry to the courtyard, a well stocked kitchen and beautiful unique furniture all hand picked by the hosts. Peter's artwork through our villa (and all villas we believe) signal the creativity of your hosts. Moonshadow is a virtual art gallery that would rival any of the boutique gallery's that Sydney has to offer. Our favorite activity was an afternoon by the pool, reading, dipping in the pool and falling asleep under the trees to the relaxing music coming from rock speakers in the garden. This place (and its hosts) have more uniqueness and luxury than any Hotel in town (by far) and yet has the privacy of your own tropical estate. 10 out of 10 Peter and Moya. Thank you."

  • "We were really excited about our accommodation at Moonshadow and were certainly not disappointed. We love to stay in "different" accommodation and Moonshadow was first class in all aspects. The atmosphere was relaxed and it was obvious that Peter and Moya wanted us to enjoy our time at Moonshadow. Whilst the pool and surrounds were fantastic, what impressed me most were all the personal touches within our villa and the attention to detail. I think that they knew exactly how to set up the villa so that it was just as they would like it leaving it impossible to fault any aspect of the accommodation. We would highly recommend Moonshadow to anyone and everyone, especially if staying somewhere really special is an important aspect of your holiday experience."
