Our stay was everything we thought it would be. Great location, very close to everything and we were able to walk to everywhere we wanted to go. The apartment is very roomy and catered to all our needs. Great views from the balcony.

Amazing home away from home! Plenty of room for a large family, or even two families. The pool was absolutely amazing — we swam a few times a day. The kitchen was fantastic and the BBQ was great to have.

Benji and the team are amazing and very responsive. I am glad they arranged the property for us to move in a timely manner. Highly recommended!

This apartment was just perfect. Clean, spacious and had everything we needed. The most incredible sunrises streaming right through the huge windows into the lounge. The host even checks in to see if you need any more supplies.
Susan W.Zen Sapphire ShoreExtended stayVerified Airbnb review
Perfect for us, a multigenerational family with active teens and less active grandparents. Space for everyone to find privacy, and the theatre, pool and pool table were always in use. The host actively communicated with us during our two-week stay.

Perfect for our team to unwind and rest after a hard day's work. Quiet and private surrounds, well-appointed facilities, comfortable all round. You couldn't get a more welcoming host — a big thanks to Benji and the Zen team!

Amazing stay at Dundee Beach. The sunsets were absolutely stunning! It's great to get off the beaten track and enjoy a less discovered place near Darwin. The kids loved the big projector for movie nights.

Could not have chosen a better place. 360-degree panoramic views, spacious living inside and on the outdoor deck, comfortably appointed with every possible facility and high security.
Willem G.Zen SeabreezeLong stayVerified Booking.com review
Absolutely amazing and fit our big group of 8 comfortably. The pool and gym downstairs were a great perk. Thanks to the hosts' regular updates and clear communication everything went smoothly.
