I recently stayed at Aurora Kakadu and i really enjoyed my stay!!! The staff were very friendly and welcoming and i am definitely one to ask a lot of annoying questions. We had cocktails by the beautiful pool which was the perfect end to a long day exploring the nature that is Kakadu. There is also a great billabong with... More

The Aurora Kakadu is not new, there is a lot of blue but it is one hell of a resort.

Cable TV, fridge and large bathroom facilities. The shining star however... More

Had a nice upstairs room that was extremely hot on arrival and it took quite a while for the air conditioning to work. We had booked a dinner, bed and breakfast deal and there was a great deal of confusion over the booking of dinner and then how much the voucher was worth to spend in the restaurant. The restaurant...

It’s important to be clear what this is. Aurora Kakadu is not a hotel – it is a motel with a large number of blocks of serviced rooms. Staff were all very pleasant, friendly and helpful, but everything else seemed a bit hit and miss or full of inconsistencies. For example: the gardens are beautiful, but the buildings look rather...

We had an overnight stop in this hotel and it is truly a magical place! The pool is a great way to cool down after a trip to Ubirr to view the wonderful scenery and the wildlife around the hotel was great....we saw a dingo and several wallabies,a snake was about to devour a lizard and there was a huge...

We always stay at the Aurora Kakadu when we travel into Kakadu National Park. The room is fine, service is always friendly and "down to earth". Its location, next to a billabong is wonderful; the billabong itself was full of bird life, and there is now a short boardwalk out over the water. There is always life at the Aurora,... More

We stayed at Aurora Kakadu as it was the cheapest option for us. We got a dinner, bed and breakfast package for about $160 per night for two people. Our room was large and comfortable, the food was terrific and the service excellent. It was much better than it looked from the front (we had got petrol there on previous... More
