Loved by Palms City Resort guests
"I highly recommend this beautiful tropical oasis in the heart of Darwin city."
"Unlike anything else in the CBD area, the Palms Resort is a breath of fresh air."
"The Harbour Villa was well equipped with a great balcony area - some traffic noise around 8am for 30 mins but the view over esplanade/sea was fantastic."

Excellent Location and Tropical Vibe
central locationon-site parkinggracious staffwell kept pool
I really appreciated the resort's location, so close to the city center. On-site parking made things simple. The staff, from the front desk to the cleaning crew, were gracious! The pool was well kept.
I wish there was more hot water. The mixer tap in the shower seemed faulty.
Rooms
9/10
My room featured a private balcony set within a tropical garden. It was very relaxing. The kitchenette made simple food preparation easy! The location allowed easy walking distance to the supermarket and central shopping precinct.

Adequate Stay, Some Issues Noted
convenient locationwelcome poolsmall roomfirm mattress
The location proved convenient for exploring. The pool was a welcome feature. It helped to relax after a day of sightseeing. The gardens also added to the experience.
The room felt quite small. The queen bed took up most of the space. This made moving around a bit difficult. I also found the mattress to be too firm. It was not ideal for side sleeping.
