Guesthouse vacation rentals in Cox Peninsula

We had a super time at Brenda’s- the pool was relaxing after a day of work; great location for what I needed. Brenda was very helpful and friendly-

Thanks very much Melanie and Steve! Your property is so lush and beautiful as well as your pool and front apartment we stayed in thank you. We felt at home there and could have stayed longer quite easily. There was a slight pet smell in the lounge room we noticed. We loved the stay, your friendliness and even giving us extra mozzie coils when we needed them! :-) We will be sure to keep you in mind if we are in Howard springs again. Thanks again.

This is the place to be if you like to avoid the city. This location was very peaceful. Extremely good value for money. Highly recommend.

Catherine's unit was the perfect base for my two week stay in Darwin. It was close to the local shops and importantly uni. As a single female traveller I appreciated the safety of having people nearby in the house while also having my own space and privacy. The unit is perfectly built for the tropical Darwin climate. I loved that it was cool and comfortable in the heat without having to blast the aircon. Catherine and her family are amazing hosts. They are all friendly and helpful.

Mia is a joyful delight, very generous & Welcoming Host. The Air Bnb Flat actually felt like a cool tropical oasis in the Darwin 'build up ' & it had everything we needed & felt homely for the near 2 weeks stay. The Flat is a large private 1 bedroom building separate but close to the main house & their outdoor living space. Older style decor, yet well appointed & functional space to live in for a long stays inc a fantastic new Washing machine. Felt comfortable & safe plus in an ideal location close to the hospital & airport, shopping centre. We Appreciated Mia's attentiveness, all the healthy food she shared & care during our convalescence stay. Thank-u Mia! Highly Recommended.

Well Bec and Dave’s place was amazing! Beyond the photo description! Clean, comfortable, well appointed, lovely pool, did I mention quiet!! It’s only a one bedroom but lovely living area and well appointed bathroom.. and because you have 2 nice areas to look out into garden or personal courtyard space it feels spacious. Bec and Dave went out of their way to make our stay the perfect one it was. Our daughter and young grandchildren were able to come and swim in the pool. We went to the Wildlife Park and was txt chatting to Bec about it. She said watch out for midges.. next morning as we left early there was a bottle of insect repellent on our door step! The staples left in the cupboards was a welcome start to our pantry and Bec even provided my favourite soy milk on our arrival. Would we recommend this place! We sure would! Would we stay again.. yes yes yes!!!

Staying at Jane and Geoff’s place was a wonderful experience, they were both very friendly and helpful with tips for things to see in the local area. The room was lovely, and the grounds kept very tidy and beautiful. I would definitely stay here again for another visit!

The accomodation was great, the location is perfect for visiting the nature reserves in the area: Foggy Dam, Howard Springs Reserve, Charles Darwin Reserve etc. It was a perfect choice for a wildlife photographic holiday. The cottage was well equiped, modern and clean. The veranda looking out onto a beautiful tropical garden was an unexpected pleasure. Abigail was a wonderful host. All the essentials were provided for the stay, even including some free range eggs. This will be my first choice for any future trips to the area. Thank you Abi.

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at The Abode in Darwin! The space was immaculately clean, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and thoughtful, making sure I felt at home from the moment I arrived. The location was perfect, nestled in a quiet and peaceful area. Enjoyed the tropical ambiance. I highly recommend The Abode to anyone visiting Darwin. It’s a perfect retreat for both short and extended stays. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

A lovely, private and peaceful and clean Airbnb. highly recommend for a stay in Darwin. It was such a cosy place and so well equipped with absolutely everything you need including all cooking gear. I am sensitive to noise and the Airbnb was very quiet. easy access to bus into city and coastal walk in a gorgeous and safe part of Darwin.

If I could give 6 stars to Kathleen, I would. Her apartment was absolutely stunning, with a super comfy bed, lots of amenities (shampoo, body lotion, information booklet, local leaflets, TV, radio) with a beautiful pool in wonderful surroundings. The neighbourhood was so tranquil, within walking distance of everywhere we needed to be, including the city centre. This is the best Air BnB we’ve stayed at: Kathleen was so hospitable and kind, even loaning me some wildlife guidebooks to read! Thank you so much Kathleen. I would highly recommend anyone to stay here. A home away from home. Perfect.

Well appointed room and excellent location, with a responsive and pleasant host ready to provide support. Reliable and trouble free.

A bright comfortable well appointed space. The hosts managed to balance a fine line of being attentive to any needs or queries I had and giving me space to feel free to use the amenities available on site. The host took the time to leave some breakfast and gourmet items in the fridge as the late arrivals common to Darwin means you are waking up on your 1st morning there without having had a chance to get something for breakfast. Extremely thoughtful and was greatly appreciated.

Cute and cozy! Private and peaceful part of Darwin’s suburb. Hayley and her family are warm, welcoming and helpful.

Had an brilliant and peaceful stay for our honeymoon. Very friendly and helpful hosts.

Loved our stay here. Thoughtful & generous hosts who put their visitors' comforts first. Everything about our stay was wonderful. Love the location- close to markets & the beach. Loved the care taken when we arrived to make sure there was everything we might need & more. My favourite stay ever.

I moved to Darwin for work and was staying for a month. Thalia’s is a great location as it was 15 mins from where I work and everything else, including Darwin, Mindil Beach & other local attractions is only 10-15 mins away. Staying under someone’s family home was daunting at first. I barely knew they were there. The space is generous in size and really comfortable. Everything I needed was available. Thalia is an amazing host, answering all communication really quickly. If I needed to again, I would happily stay again.

The Place was great. very easy to access , with clear and helpful instructions. When we entered, the place was very clean and welcoming. The Neighbourhood was quiet and peaceful. 5 stars from us.

This is a real gem! There is an overwhelming feeling of peace and well-being in this place, so quiet and relaxing. David and Sue are the best hosts you could hope for, always up for a chat, yet respecting of your privacy at all times. Blaze and Honey, the pet dingoes, are extremely gentle and kind-natured and a joy to be around. The natural garden surrounding the retreat is stunning and the resort style pool is just gorgeous, only a short walk from the retreat through the garden. The retreat is extremely well presented, modern, clean, tidy and like a home away from home with everything you could possibly need. A massive verandah along the side of the whole retreat with a big daybed means that you can lie and read a good book while watching a thunderstorm roll through if you happen to be lucky enough to experience one on your stay. This is the second time that we have stayed here (both were at least one week stays), and we can’t wait to go back! Highly recommend!
