“The Mercure Darwin Airport Resort has a persuasive advantage for short stays, being a stagger away from the terminal. Beyond the location, the resort cultivates a surprisingly convincing tropical atmosphere, centered on a pool area that seems genuinely family-friendly. I think it's a solid option, if you are ok with being a bit away from the city.”
