We loved our stay at the tropical sanctuary it was so quiet and peaceful and the property is beautiful. Would highly recommend.
Lovely peaceful and comfortable place to stay. We had a car so it was easy to get around to the places we wanted to see in the Darwin area. Enjoyed the nearby Foreshore restaurant for meals.

Hi Nick,
Thank you for the lovely review. It was an absolute pleasure to host you for 10 nights. You are welcome back anytime
"It was absolutely incredible! Sally and her family welcomed us with open arms, making us feel completely at home. I was there for work, and my wife and child joined me. Every tiny detail was carefully thought out, and the level of customer care was exceptional. Our stay was nothing short of perfect."

This is a small flat at the back of a house. A little gem of a place, very modern with a private garden and pool. The beach is not far by foot. Very relaxing, and enjoyable stay here.
HAd a lovely stay here recently. The property is well located, being very close to shops etc but also Nightcliff is perfectly located halfway between the CBD and Casuarina shopping precinct. Nearby is the fabulous Nightcliff pool, a hidden gem of a public pool. The property was well appointed, clean and relatively spacious.
Would highly recommend for those wanting to stay in Darwin & don't want to be in a hotel. :)

About the host
Hosted by Sally
We are a married couple named Sally & Sam with a gorgeous bubba. We are originally from Geelong & Melbourne Victoria but have been living in Darwin for 5 1/2 years. We loved the relaxed vibe of Darwin and the tropical days and balmy nights. We are both very active and love keeping fit and playing sports. We are a friendly and easy going couple and look forward to meeting new people that are holidaying in our tropical villa.
