Great location to stay near the Gorge, cabins were comfortable but an issue with ants maybe it would have been good for venue to supply insect spray and a warning.

The staff were so amazingly helpful in communication, local knowledge and helping us sort everything out given extreme weather events. We look forward to visiting again. Thankyou!!

Great location but.....
Great location however our 2 bedroom cabin was very small. Literally only about 18 inches each side and end of the bed in main room. Bathroom so small you could barely get out when you opened the door. Kitchen adequate but not anything special. Spent most of time on deck where more space. For what they charge per night i would have thought a bit larger. Location was good so you could walk everywhere from your door.

We stayed at Nitmiluk Chalets as we had an evening dinner cruise booked down Katherine Gorge. It was perfect, we were able to walk to the jetty from our chalet, so we could safely enjoy our dinner cruise without the worry of driving afterwards. The chalet was very clean and well supplied and the bed was very comfortable. Would be very happy to stay here again

The chalets were very quiet; situated at the far end of the camp ground. Amenities were clean, plenty of room to move & sitting on the deck was very peaceful.

The two bedroom cabin had everything you could want even a small deck with a table and chairs. The property is well laid out and very well kept. You can book a cabin, bring your own caravan, RV or pitch a tent. The facilities for these people is great clean shower blocks, BBQ's and fridges to put your food. The property's location is excellent to Nitmiluk Gorge, but 29kms from the city centre. The Visitor Centre also located on site is way better than the one at Jabiru. Great displays with even a resident artist! It also has a cafe offering breakfast and lunch. So to the disappointing things - we stayed for 4 days and our cabin was never serviced. Also the TV never worked which was noted when we checked in but it never got fixed nor were we offered the option to change cabins and they had some free. Aside from that we would happily recommend this property to everyone, singles, couples and families.

Old and shabby, holes in the wall even. The cabins are very small. Excellent location for gorges tour and hike to the lookout. Visitors centre is lovely. Note that you cannot get dinner unless you are staying at the Cicada lodge.

We loved our stay. Yes, the cabins are a little dated, however they are immaculately clean with comfy beds and good aircon. The pool is lovely. The accomodation is walking distance from the gorge and the sunset hike was simply stunning. Bring all your own food as the onsite cafe has limited in options (particularly November - April 30) Gorge Tour was also well worth it!

Since it was during the wet season it was really quiet at this resort, and not much was open. We mainly went here for the Gorge Boat Tour. The swimming pool was very enjoyable. Unfortunately, despite what Orbitz said in their listing we did not have any internet like we were expecting.

These chalets are just perfect for appreciating the natural wonder of the Nitmiluk National Park. They are fully appointed so that you can cook for yourself. Air-conditioned, clean with a little balcony you can sit on and enjoy the serenity and beauty of this incredible place. Highly recommended.

The property requires some attention as it is a little run down. However not having any wifi or phone service is unacceptable in 2022. The reception area is very nice the cabins are clean but very basic and do require a little love. I also feel that as we booked a dinner cruise the walk back to the accommodation is poorly lit, solar lights along the path and no sprinklers pointing to the paths at the time of the boat coming back to shore so your guests did not get wet would be great. The cruise was excellent and our guide was incredible. Well done.

Cabins were great, clean, comfortable and well equipped. Lovely deck with outdoor furniture - great for balmy evenings. Nice pool with grassy surrounds. Only disappointment was that the poolside bistro wasn't open even though check in instruction referred to checking in at the bistro! Could eat at visitors centre but limited and expensive menu. View of sunset was great though!

The cabins are perfectly equipped and presented clean. Most importantly, it was really quiet at night despite being at the back of the campgrounds. Probably the one thing to best understand is that the Cabins are not in the Cicada Lodge.

We realised that many cafes were going to be closed when we booked but this did prove more of a problem that we anticipated. We had to drive half an hour to buy provisions to cook and cook with. There was very little information regarding cruises and activities available and not much communication forthcoming form the staff. We left a day earlier than planned partly because of the lack of catering facilities. It is a beautiful spot however and we enjoyed our stay.

The website description and pictures did not indicate the "valets" were actually caravan park cabins. They are very nice cabins, modern, and clean, with comfy beds and air con etc. but is misleading, particularly for the price. The website also neglected to say the poolside cafe and bar was not open (although the pool is)...so it was disappointing in terms of what we were expecting in terms of services. The unfortunate young woman checking us in had to absorb our questions and disappointment. This information should be updated on the website. The only restaurant was at the visitor centre, which is a lovely venue with a decent menu.

I loved Katherine Gorge and this is the perfect place to stay. Our cabin had everything we needed. The 2 chefs who worked on rotation at the pool bistro and on the sunset dinner cruise blew my mind with the standard of food! An added bonus. 😀 Would recommend to all.

Excellent place to stay for our one night at Katherine Gorge. Nice pool to swim in after our walk with a bar and good food. Lovely relaxing place. So nice to stay out at the Gorge instead of in Katherine.

The chalet was cute, clean, well equipped and perfect for our needs. The evening cocktail and dinner was delicious. When the bedroom ceiling fan got stuck on the fastest speed after hours, our call to the emergency line was answered immediately and help arrived within minutes. My only complaint was not being able to speak to someone on the phone about check in and after we left the property when I realised I had left my toilet bag in the bathroom cupboard. I still have not had a response from anyone despite two emails, the only possible method of communication with the property, and it's been over a week! The lack of communication is frustrating.

Location right at Katherine Gorge. We stayed in a self contained 2 bedroom’Nitmiluk Chalet’. Well equipped and comfortable. Effective air conditioning. Pool kiosk sold dinner from 6-8pm only. Tasty meals. Next closest food is 30km in Katherine. Should have stayed 2 nights to make the most of the stunning surroundings.
