There are few outback moments more hair-raising in Australia than watching a log of wood slowly drift towards your boat on Yellow Water billabong in NT's Kakadu National Park - only to realise it's not a log of wood.

Experience this heart-racing moment as part of a sunrise cruise of the billabong. You will have to wake up early for it, which means a good night's sleep is non-negotiation.
Lucky for you, five Yellow Water Villas have just opened within the grounds of the nearby Cooinda Lodge. In addition to king-sized beds, ensuites and separate dining areas, each villa comes with its own private verandah, complete with a bathtub.
