WOW! From the moment I boarded the small Cessna aircraft in Darwin I knew I was headed for an adventure. The 25 minute flight from Darwin to the Bamurru Plains took me over the winding Adelaide River (which is home to the largest population of salt water crocs in the country!) and the vast floodplain system before landing on this...

I'm not sure that we've ever slept so soundly as listening to the wild noises at Bamurru Plains, whilst nestled in very comfy beds. This hotel is a treat for sure - it takes a little navigating to get to, and with it being remote, it is not on the cheap side. The room concept is very original though- cabins... More

We wanted a taste of the outback and to be near Kakadu National Park. The lodge was okay but not a "blown" away experience. The food was better than average and the accommodations were in the same category. Some things were needed such as a minor thing as a mirror over the sink in the bathroom to oiling the doors... More

Bamurru offers itself as "wild bush luxury" which exactly right - the "tents" (they have a screen door, are elevated and have an en... More

We absolutely loved Bamurru Plains. It is very special and so relaxing. We were a little nervous about going at the end of the wet - but we need not have been concerned. It was raining when we landed and apart from a brief shower one afternoon (and a downpour at 3am) we had no further issues with the weather.... More

We arrived not really knowing what to expect from our stay at Bamurru. After a 35 minute flight in a light aircraft from Darwin we landed at the dusty airstrip where we were met by really friendly staff who drove us to the camp nearly 20 minutes away. The central lodge was lovely. It overlooked the flood plains where buffalo... More
