    The Tropical Villas were awesome. the outside area with table and chairs was where we spent a lot of time. The pool area was great with heaps of chairs and shade, the pool bar was a bonus and the cocktails delicious. The location was probably as good as you can get in Darwin. Close to beach, waterfont district, bars and shops.

    The pools are nice, Mindil beach is a beautiful location to relax plus you’ll be next door to the popular markets on Thursday. Can’t beat the sunsets here. We stayed at the older part of the hotel which I imagine is not as nice as the villas so running down a bit. We’re still very happy and will stay here again
