My partner and I just got back from a 4 day mini break at Moonshadow Villas minutes from Darwin centre. It was our first time in Darwin and we were warned about the time of year we were going due to the hot, oh so hot climate. Needless to say, our friends were right!! It was hot but thankfully Moonshadow... More

The Moonshadow Villas run by Peter and Moya together with their able and friendly staff will leave a lasting impression of what a holiday destination should be. The clever and overwhelmingly pleasing architecture and furnishings provided a sanctuary for our two week holiday. The generosity and friendliness shown to us was superb, as was the cool and refreshing plunge pool... More

I have just left Moonshadow Villas after a divine two week stay. The attention to detail in the furnishing and services of the villas is wonderful. One Monday morning the owner even arrived with a loaf of home baked bread! The villas are furnished in an eclectic Asian/tropical modern style and are supremely comfortable. Staff are attentive and friendly and... More

I travel extensively to Darwin for work and found Moonshadow Villas to be excellent. Moya organised everything perfectly, which always aloud me to just walk in and get settled before long days of meetings. Even when I booked at short notice Moya always found a villa or one of there inner city apartments for me. It's the small personal touches... More

I have been a Travel Consultant for many years and over that time I have stayed in some very special accommodation both domestic and internationally. However this the first time that I have ever placed a report in Tripadvisor as I felt people should be aware that this type of accommodation is available in Darwin. We have stayed in Moonshadow...

Moonshadow is a hidden gem that we're very happy to have stumbled upon! Our villa was spacious, airy, and super comfortable. The ambiance was just lovely, with incredibly beautiful hardwood floors, nice linens, and extremely tasteful decor. The kitchen had all the amenities needed to make our own meals. We especially enjoyed sitting outside on our porch in the fresh... More

My husband and I had a truely relaxing time at Moonshadow Villas and our first visit to the Top End. We were warmly welcomed by Lawrence and further greeted by a delicious cream sponge concoction of chocolate and strawberries for my husband's birthday. The villa was refreshing clean, the attention to detail was a delight to see. Forearmed and forewarned... More

A great place. Really peaceful, tropic style, including fans, pools, architecture, beds & bathrooms. Only - main - quibble was the plugin 'scent' in about 5 powerpoints. Overwhelming stench that wasn't at all necessary as the whole place is immaculately clean, well presented and completely appropriate to the climate - all the doors open to give you outdoor living, there's...

Thank you for the review and we raced around fixing this up! We only need to be told once.. Wish we had known whilst you were on your holiday! A little overenthusiastic with the clove and cinnamon essential oil burners! Mea Culpa.. We use a special essential oil and tea mixture to polish our coconut wood floors as well so... More
