Great location close to the ferry, Mindel, Parap, Rapid Creek and the City.
Lovely view over the Marina.
sy check in friendly staff close to eateries and Mindle beach markets and many tourism places to visit nice pool and beautiful views over the marina overall very happy it's our 4 th visit and we will be back again
Really enjoyed our apartment stay, staff are friendly & helpful, the location was great & easy to get around in our hire car, plenty of parking available. The apartment building is a bit dated but it is clean & had everything we needed. We would stay here again :)
Hreat place to stay in Darwin. The kitchenette was a nice surprise and the biew was great. Easy access to restaurants down the hill and free bus service.
I loved the marina view & how quiet the area is. Only a short walk to the beach, nice waterfront restaurants and various other services. Room was basic but contained what I needed and the staff were all polite.
Cullen Bay is a really beautiful, safe, and comfortable place to stay while exploring Darwin. Easy to get to the CBD, the botanic gardens, MAGNT, and East Point Reserve. The room had a gorgeous view and everything we needed!
