My husband and I spent 2 fabulous nights in the Lodge. I can't recommend it highly enough. Marty is the consumate professional but welcomed us as if we were family. His hand picked staff were commendable. Joe was exceptional and his knowledge of food and wine amazed us and Paul was a delight, attentive, helpful and mature beyond his mere 20 yrs. It is the small things that made this stay so wonderful, from personalised menus, to little notes left in our room by the girls who serviced the rooms. The attention to detail makes all the difference. As a well travelled couple who rarely stay in the same place twice, we will make an exception for Cicada Lodge. Oh and the food - exquisite! The chef uses many native ingredients and is very creative. I thank the traditional owners for embracing 5 star accommodation in their beautiful natural environment and hope this trend continues and expands...

Comfortable and generous sized rooms. Caretakers were welcoming and gave us a few tips on where to visit. First time staying in Katherine. Would recommend this place to all my family and friends. Enjoyed our stay will be back. Hence the five stars.

Although the place looks very neat, our overall experience was disappointing. We had kangaroo as a starter which was delicious. The main dish was a Barramundi, which was served with a kind of curry sauce. This combination of tasts felt totally wrong. You could not taste the fish and the sauce was too strong. As a desert we had the brownie with icecream, which was nothing special. At the end of the evening we also realised that we got no side dishes at all with e.g vegetables. The waiter was a friendly man, who made our evening slightly better.

The staff were very friendly, helpful, and super attentive. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The dipping pool was refreshing. Breakfast was included and very good. No lunch service but there is a cafe in the visitor centre next door. Free aperitif drink and canapes. Dinner was very enjoyable and the chef willing to accommodate special requests in advance. Very convenient for Nitmiluk Gorge boat tours and hiking in the park. About 20 minutes drive to the town of Katherine. Relatively expensive.

This place is very special and a destination in itself. It is exclusive and professional, the villas are large, well appointed and modern with decks that look through the fragrant bush. It was so peaceful sitting in the cool of the morning listening to the birds. What makes this place very special though is the staff, from all over the world, they clearly love their job and make a great team. Gee on check in made us feel very welcome and Killian was charming and right on the mark with his service. Breakfast is provided as was drinks and canapés for sunset by the pool. The menu is limited as a result of the remoteness and small amount of guests but the quality was exceptional. I had Daniel’s barramundi the first night which was beautifully cooked. This is fine dining. The second night I wanted something light and fresh and Sam the French chef went out of his way to make a beautiful salad for me and a delicious duck with jus for my husband which he raved about. The lodge is a short walk to the visitors centre and the gorge tour jetty and the start of many hiking trails. Thank you to the staff for a memorable stay. Highly recommended.

Highly recommend a stay here. It was a good location for the sights and tours. The rooms are very comfortable. The bed is very comfortable as well! great bathrooms and decks. The pool is refreshing. The service is fantastic. Sunset drinks and canapés and the restaurant is simply delicious. The fish and the steak were sensational. The entrees and desserts as well. And exceptionally well priced!

Cicada Lodge exceeded our expectations. Polished yet understated this beautiful, boutique, eco friendly hotel is set in the perfect location. Particularly, if you wish to do a gorges tour. The rooms are spacious and beautifully appointed, the food in the restaurant is excellent and service is outstanding.

Such a beautiful place on Nitmiluk Gorge, a 5 star Lodge all the way for me. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable. We were greeted with a glass of champagne and the staff were phenomenal. Our room was very modern with lovely furnishings, super comfy beds, great and bathroom/shower. Quite a small lodge set amongst serene bushland, I really liked the intimacy and tranquillity. The bar/restaurant staff were very attentive and the meals were exquisite. Although we only stayed 1 night, it was definitely the highlight of our adventures in the N.T.
