About this property

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Perfect little home away from home in the tropics.

A quiet escape in the heart of Parap within walking distance to the famous Parap Saturday Markets, Mindall Markets, Museum and Art Gallery along with sunset dinning at numerous locations also. Welcome
Spend some time at the Parap pool or just sit in the treetops and read a good book enjoying the afternoon breeze.

The space:
You will walk into a treetop retreat that opens to the open-plan lounge and dining area. Have a BBQ out on the balcony or cook up a feast in the well-equipped kitchen. There are plenty of eateries a walk away in the bustling Parap Shopping Precinct. 2 car space (1 undercover). The laundry is located in the unit for your convenience. Air conditioning in every room will ensure a pleasant night's sleep. All mod cons to make your stay as enjoyable as possible.

Great apartment to stay

It was a great position to access all things NT, easy to get the bus to Darwin and Nightcliff. Uber is quite affordable, we didn't find the need to hire a car as we used uber or buses everywhere we went.

Darwin Trip #2

This apartment stay was absolutely beautiful. The apartment has everything you need, comfort and all amenities catered for you. This honestly felt a little home away from home👌 The complex was quiet and secure and I felt very relaxed my whole stay. I would recommend this apartment absolutely for an enjoyable stay.

Great location with an awesome coffee shop laneway coffee and bakery a short stroll in the morning. Parap tavern right next door with cheap twelve dollar jugs all weekend. Very central and only a ten dollar uber to the city or Mindal markets. Parap markets only a 5 minute walk.

Absolutely nothing to dislike about our stay. Excellent communication with the owner. This is not a negative comment, would love to see an outdoors table and a couple of chairs on the balcony for the bigger, smoking, coffee loving visitors. We’ll be back.
