Beautiful gardens and landscaping and lovely pool and cafe/restaurant area

TripAdvisor rating 5.0/5

sopaca TripAdvisor review

We came to this hotel to meet up for our 9am Yellow River Cruise as it was the main pickup point. We got there in good time to have drinks and snacks in the cafe/restaurant. The hotel looked beautiful - the pool area and restaurant had a lush tropical feel and the gardens and landscaping were lovely. There was a well stocked shop there too. We'd stayed the previous two nights at the Mercure Kakadu and, after seeing Cooinda Lodge, regretted that as we would have enjoyed staying in Cooinda Lodge a lot more. It would also have meant we could have done the Yellow River Sunrise Cruise but we didn't want to risk the 45 minute drive from Jabiru to here in the dark so missed out on that. Top tip - make this your base in the park! Although staying here does make being at the Ubirr Sunset Point almost impossible as that is a 90km/1 hour drive so wouldn't be great after sunset.

Good busy lodge in a great location

MikeBirdman TripAdvisor review

Large busy lodge in the national park. I had a chalet type room. Was very good. And very comfortable with a patio. Pleasant staff. Stayed two days and they serviced the room each day. The restaurant was ok. Some parts excellent such as the fresh squeezed OJ machine at breakfast. But if go at a busy time can be crazy and they had run out of items by then. There is no Wi-Fi in the room.

livwanders Friends getaway - TripAdvisor review

Cooinda really exceeded my expectations! I thought it was going to be another basic, over-priced Aussie stay, but everything was wonderful, from the comfort in the glamping tent (the beds were like clouds!), to the quality of the amenities (super clean bathrooms and fresh towels provided), to how good the food was. I had a delicious kangaroo burger for dinner because ‘when in the outback’ and it was so tasty! Honestly I loved our stay! The pool was beautiful and got so much sun, the breakfast was varied and super fresh and the yellow water cruise was great! Batch was our guide and he was SO knowledgeable, we learned so much from him, without it being overbearing. I’d absolutely visit again! Thank you
