We stayed in one of the Lodge rooms. We thought it might be nicer because of the high price however it was ok. Clean enough, although the paint in the shower was peeling and the ranch slider windows were covered with finger marks. Bed comfortable, air conditioner ok, no mossies. Oh, we had no hot water for two nights, didn't... more

This place was as I expected, I would rate it as a 2 1/2 star property. We had the best available room, it was clean but basic. The evening meals in the dinning room were good. It is expensive but everywhere in the outback is. If you go there expecting a basic holiday park for families then you probably won't... more

We thought that we would treat ourselves, and stay at a nice place in Kakadu...boy were we disappointed. The ONLY thing that this place has going for it is that it is near yellow water. You know, when you are spending $350 per night, you don't mind so much if it is nice and you come away feeling like you... more

I had reserved two budget rooms for two couples long in advance, as one must do for accommodation in the high season. I did this by telephone directly with Cooinda. On arrival mid-afternoon we joined a slow queue of about a dozen customers at check-in. There were only two staff on duty. When it was finally our turn we enquired... more

We stayed in Gagudju Lodge in Cooinda for a few days in June 2009 while roaming around Kakadu. There are few options in Kakadu if you're not ready to camp, so we ended up in a 'budget room' for $105/night. The standard rooms looked nice but were over $200/night. The budget room was BASIC - bed, small shelf/table, light, air... more

The location was the main, and as it turned out,the only attraction for us. I was aware of previous negative reviews. As others have commented the place is basic and tired and they can only charge these extremely exorbitant prices because there is no competition. We wanted to do the early morning Yellow river cruise so the option was either... more

Stayed at Gagudju Lodge May 2009. Enjoyed the stay, room was clean and comfortable. Room prices are expensive as is the one restaurant and small shop for necessities, however there is limited choice in this area. The Yellow Waters cruise is a must, this accommodation is the closest to it, and there is a shuttle bus from this location. Expect... more

I guess I expected a lot more than what I get for $150 a night for lodge accommodation during wet season in Kakadu as I paid $98 a night for a standard room at All Seasons in Katherine. The price doesn't even include continental breakfast like All Seasons either so... before I got there, I expected the room to be... more

We arrived after a long drive expecting to come across 70's styled caravan park lodgings with a big but backpackerish pool. Wrong We were greeted by very friendly and efficient staff in a modern building suited to the surrounding landscape. Once given the rundown of the resort we drove to our rooms and walked into what must have been a... more
