We loved our experience and cant complain.

Wallabies on the beach, new kids playground, great food, new bedding in cabins. Boat hire is available and a great experience.

The pool and the door lock, the lock on room 12 was a struggle.

The location was calm and quite the sea side view was awesome. The heat was too much but apart from that enjoyed our stay. And ..... they have wifi in the rooooom wow.

Location and Staff were exceptional Truly a slice of Top End Paradise

Rooms are very compact and shared balcony’s with strangers isn’t ideal!

Beach views and good food

Sparkling wine was a little expensive, not a great range. But look where you are, hard to get a lot of stock. Not really a problem

I have visited this resort over the last 20 years and the experience has improved a great deal. The meals were excellent in the recent stay, staff was outstanding, and nothing was a trouble. The pool was clean and welcome with the hot weather the Territory has been experiencing. Well done Crab Claw, hope to be back.

Rooms were very basic. Breakfast was average

It was relaxing and the bar was lovely

We could hear EVERYTHING that was happening in our neighbours cabin and they ours. We were kept up until really late at night with the neighbours terrible music, playing cards and talking. We had to put our earbuds in and listen to our own music to drown them out to get to sleep. The walls are paper thin between the cabins. Unfortunately the cabins with no privacy are the ones with the beach and ocean views. If you prefer privacy - pay a little more for the family room

Crab claw island is very beautiful. There is stunning nature (peacocks and kangaroos) and the cabins are very cute, comfortable and have great views from the veranda. The restaurant is delicious and the pools are lovely to cool off in as it was very hot when we visited. Super relaxing vibes and the staff are lovely.

Nothing, it was suited to our stay.

Great views, restaurant was very reasonable and meal sizes large. Staff always willing to assist.

The view

Careful property maintenance is always a constant in the Top End, so some sections of the walkway need attention - but not dangerous. It's a tough climate, and anyone going there is going for the 'vibe' and feel not 5-star marble foyers!

The location was fabulous - right on the beachfront, and our unit looked out over the water. Breakfast and dining areas were the same, gorgeous views, and when we stayed, there were plenty of spots to eat and drink with great views. No swimming, though - not really fond of the crocs - but the swimming pools were refreshing. Our room was the last available on the site, very clean but three beds - a double and two singles - and it was a bit squeezy in terms of room to move - but the balcony right on the shore front made up for it. And to be fair that was clear on the booking form and how the room size and beds were listed. Staff were great and doing a job at a time when obviously staffing was in high turnaround.

Location was awesome

Stayed in December 2023

property bit old for the price, too many mijis and mozzies, though the consequences of staying in the middle of mangroves, but my whole body was full of red spots and very itchy.

view was great. beautiful nature. got to see some baby roos and h*rny peacock 😂 food and sunset at the restaurant were great, staff were friendly.

One of the beds was not comfortable. It was a double and was not flat.

Location, fishing, wildlife, and raised up accommodation and walkways. Breakfast was good.

It was a little worn around the edges.

Remote getaway - perfect spot to relax and watch the waves (or fish!) I loved the atmosphere and the tropical aesthetic.

Felt we had paid too much for our beach front room. It was shabby and with no where to put our bags. It was noisy at night, sounded like traffic but wasn't something clicking on and off. You could hear and feel people moving around in the room next to ours the room shock slightly when anyone walked around. We were looking forward to a relaxing luxury stay so we were disappointed.

Food was great, staff were friendly and informative. Both swimming pools were of good size. Lovely to see the wallabies, peacocks/peahens and guinea fowls at dusk. The complementary breakfast was most welcome with a good selection of cereals.
