Just to be clear, there isn't a lake! There's two ways of looking at this place. The good is that you get well equipped, clean, large units at, for the NT, a reasonable price. Somewhat bizarrely each unit has an outside bathroom and toilet - not so great in the middle of the night. The bad? The units are in... More

We booked into a "bush bungalow" for the two nights in the early dry. The bungalow itself is a high platform covered with tent-like sails with mesh sides. The roof is very high and has a ceiling fan. It contains a double bed and 2 bunk beds, a small fridge and cupboard. Our private bathroom is in a separate building... More

We stayed here one night on 29th Dec(wish it was more!) in a two roomed cabin. The aircon and fans were thoughtfully turned on when we got in at around 1pm. We found everything we needed in the well maitained kitchen - it was the best place we stayed in during our 4 days in NT. The only thing we... More

Jabiru lies in the middle of important Kakadu attractions, so it is a good location to choose. We had a doubleroom in Lakeview's "Six Packs". Furniture was o.k. but both airconditioner and fridge were far too loud - either you can't sleep because of the noise or the heat. Building is made from corrugated iron, you can hear every noise...

Thank you for drawing our attention to a possible problem with noisy appliances. We have checked all fridges and air-conditioners and can reporrt that all seem quiet now. It is unfortunate that you had noisy neightbours during your stay. Most people tend to try to keep the noise down when in a building such as the Six Packs with shared... More

Just plain great! The cabin are really cool: you can see through them and hear the forest around. Bring earplugs, though, or the flying dogs will keep you awake. The bathrooms are separate, private and very clean and new. The BBQ-facilities are in ship shape condition. BTW: Jabiru has an Olympic public pool (!)

The old flying foxes -fruit bats ( I just love "the flying dogs") are always happy to let anyone know they are around. We only have a few around on some occasions here at the park. We name the flying foxes the "night shift" & when they knock off the "morning shift" arrives - all the beautiful birds. Good to... More

Clean, comfortable with nice garden setting. We stayed in a bush bungalow which was nice and cool, even after a 36 degree day. Good outdoor BBQ facilities. Although there is not a lot of privacy we would of stayed here 2 nights had we have known how good it was.

It is amazing that the bungalows can be so cool at night without air-conditioning isn't it? Regarding the privacy situation in the bungalows, we have listened to our guests' remarks about this and are currently organising installation of some privacy curtains for the bungalows. The curtains can be used when required or pulled back to allow views of the surrounding... More

This is the second time I have stayed in the Bush bungalows during my visit to Kakadu - worth staying at. Very clean. Queen size bed and single bunk beds. Your own shower and toilet facilities. Outdoor BBQ/dining area facilities shared between 2 bungalows, great facilities for outdoor dining. Best value accommodation in Kakadu.

Lakeview Park Kakadu is undergoing an expansion during 2013 which includes a new entrance (& office) on the road in to Jabiru. This will make it easy to find us as well as enhancing our look to the travelling public. We will also have available en-suited cabins when the expansion is complete.
