I had an amazing experience at Groote Eylandt Lodge. The views were beautiful, and the staff made me feel incredibly welcomed. The rooms are large and comfortable, but they could benefit from a little updating. The dining was exceptional, especially the fish prepared by the chef, but some menu options were a bit hit or miss. Overall, it was a great stay filled with enjoyable activities, though the facility could improve some minor details.

I had a mixed experience at Groote Eylandt Lodge. While I enjoyed the stunning views and some fantastic fishing opportunities, the room and facilities left much to be desired. The restaurant service was limited, which detracted from the overall enjoyment of my stay. Despite its beautiful surroundings, the lack of attention to cleanliness and maintenance was disappointing.

Groote Eylandt Lodge is an absolute gem for anyone seeking a unique fishing adventure in a stunning location. The lodge is beautifully appointed, with clean and comfortable cabins that overlook the water, providing a perfect backdrop for relaxation. The staff are attentive and knowledgeable, making the stay even more enjoyable. While the dining experience was fantastic, with fresh fish cooked expertly, it's worth noting that the overall experience is centered around fishing, which might not appeal to everyone.

I had a mixed experience at the lodge. On one hand, the stunning views and cultural tours were definitely highlights, with a wonderful sunset view from my cabin and a memorable guided tour by Gihan. However, the room I received was not what I'd booked, had cleanliness issues, and the dining options fell short of expectations. Overall, while there are some fantastic elements, improvements are needed in service and room maintenance.

I recently had a great stay at Groote Eylandt, where the staff went above and beyond to ensure my experience was memorable. The fishing trips were incredible, and I was lucky to see dolphins and even a hammerhead shark! However, there was some inconsistency with communication, and I did hear some stories about issues with the management. Overall, it's a place I’d love to come back to for the fantastic outdoor activities and friendly service.
