    Really handy to have an apartment with dishwasher, washing machine and drying racks etc. The swimming pool water was pleasantly cool compared to pools at some other hotels/public facilities in Darwin. It was great that you could spend the breakfast credit on lunch and grab and go items as well. The rooftop bar has amazing views and is good value.

    The one bedroom apartment was spacious, comfortable and clean. All amenities are provided in the room, including a washer and dryer. Great kitchen with a full size fridge. Air conditioning keeps you cool in the heat of the day. The hotel is across the road from a small shopping centre and it's not far to Fannie Bay to enjoy the sunsets and also head to the airport. There's a small pool area but you can cool down in the refreshing water. Staff were friendly and very helpful. We would recommend this hotel for your stay in Darwin.

    This property is apartment style accommodation, so did not include breakfast, however basic supplies for self catering breakfast are provided and it is situated in an ideal location on the waterfront close to a number of dining options. Communication before arrival and during our stay was quick, professional and friendly. The accommodation provided everything we needed during our stay and was spotlessly clean, comfortable, large, secure and quiet.

    I have never been sadder to leave a holiday property (including 6-star-hotels). The apartment is fantastic - roomy, tastefully decorated, immaculately clean - and the location was amazing, we could walk everywhere and the view was awesome. The thoughtful host even left things like oil, salt and pepper, and condiments for use. I can't say enough good things about Neptuna Over The Water.
