Discovery Parks - Darwin

The park itself was a very picturesque place, 2 good pools, clean amenities block and strict on the 5kms speed limit. The only issues that we had was they had around 3 washing machines out of order for part of our stay. Close enough to Darwin centre to not be a problem. Sites are a pretty generous in size. Just make sure that you clean the bat droppings off the awning before putting it away. Besides that we had a pretty good week there.

Property very close to Darwin airport and RAAF base,aircraft noise could be a problem|Theres not a little if shade in caravan site area.Swimming pools play area and jumping pillow good for families.|We hired 2 bedroom place which had a separate room accessed via internal door. No lounge and only a small table in each room.|Staff were helpful, property situated on Stuart Highay so cabins back onto busy road

Location really suited us. Management was very understanding when we requested a site change as we were staying for three weeks. Thank you. Would have liked to see a little more attention given to the surrounding gardens etc as we were paying top dollar Only discovered ‘new’ area the day before we left. Much nicer! Serious money and effort has been put into the highway end of the park. Hopefully working through the park and this will also solve their plumbing issues! Two pools is a bonus. Would stay again acknowledging the planes and the fact that all parks in Darwin are expensive.

We stayed here for 2 weeks and had made 4 separate bookings as our road trip plan changed. On arrival, the staff were very nice and suggested we stay on the cheaper site for the entire stay to save us from moving around as we made 4 bookings. However, they didn’t mention the rate difference or offer any credit. When we asked, we were told the price had changed between the time we booked and when we arrived – which wasn’t true, as the same rates were still showing online. After 30 minutes of going back and forth, management finally agreed to issue a credit, but not for the full amount. In the end, the credit was never processed. Their T&Cs stated credits could only be used in Darwin Discovery Park, but we’ve stayed at Discovery Parks many times before and credits could always be used across locations. Also, they refused to give coins credit for the use of washing machine because “how do we know you will use the coin in our washing machine” We are making this review not because of the credit amount but for the handling of the situation, felt dodgy and left a very poor impression. Unfortunately, this was the worst customer service we’ve experienced at a Discovery Park.

Nice but not quiet. Great location, close to everything. The pool is supposed to be closed at 7pm. Yet there a loud vermin children and parents still there afterwards and it isn't closed! Maybe the after hours number could be answered to report that we had no water.

We stayed early October and occupancy seemed less than 10pct yet we were put immediately next to others -why? Our spot was awkward to back into due to untrimmed shrubbery. As with all Discovery Parks they post a 5kmh speed limit, but on one occasion we followed the groundsman on his electric cart only to later have him chip me for speeding by following him!

A lovely park - everything in Darwin is 10 mins so it’s convenient, the major drawback is that it’s next to the airport!!! So planes leave overhead at 1-2am and then again around the 6am and it’s really loud!!! |Good amenities 2 lovely pools - the planes omg!!

Very clean and tidy Caravan Park with lots of amenities- pool, laundry, clean ablutions. Must say unfortunately we encountered a very grumpy staff member. Hopefully she was only having a bad day
