This resort is next to a lake, however, my room doesn't hv a view to overlook that. This resort is very isolated, and it's about 30-45 mins away from the next town. The TV channels are frequently breaking down, and there's a note in the room telling you that. I would rather drive back to Darwin to get better meals... More

Hi,We stayed here over the New Year break after renting a relatives' holiday home. Staying with us were some Scottish relatives who absolutely loved Lake Bennett as we did!

My Husband and I spent a weekend in this resort, in a spa room. It seems to be very rundown and not what we expected. We were greeted at reception by a very friendly lady who explained all the facltities to us, they were more than adequate.

We had already bought our food and also our drinks. We still enjoyed these, however were quite nervous as the staff didn't seem too welcoming to... More

I was a bit apprehensive going to Lake Bennett after reading the other reviews on here, but I was pleasantly surprised. We booked a Lake View Spa Suite on Wotif but got a call the next morning saying they'd just booked the last one out to someone else which was disappointing, but Mary called us again the next day saying...

We book a family room which cost $195 per night. The room was extremely average for the following reasons - Walls dirty with hand and footprint marks - sheets old and of very poor quality -carpet stale The room could not be described as a suit, but more like a backpacker dorm and at 195 there is room for improvement....

Went as a group. Checked in at 2pm to be told our room wasnt ready. Upon entering our room (finally) it smelt, and needed a good airing out. Lamps dont work, and no outside light. Other than that room was clean. Went to go for a spa, water does come from the lake, so its a bit discoloured (dont get... More
