Lake Bennett Resort

We did not stay there but we did call in for our last night in Litchfield. What a find. Very rustic but great views of the lake, a beautiful pool and great food to boot. Our waiter from Surrey UK was such a delight with a welcoming smile and constantly attending to our needs without being OTT. We will definitely be back. I would love to hire one of the kayaks on the lake one day ~ simply stunning

We had one nights accomodation at Lake Bennett and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The rooms were tidy and practical and we enjoyed our drinks and meal at the restaurant. We hired the kayaks for an hour and explored the lake and then did a nice bush walk around some of the lake.

The pristine waters of the lake are the real attraction. Only paddles and battery operated motors are allowed. It's a sanctuary. We stayed two nights. We chilled, relaxed, paddled on and swam in the lake and pool. Wayne the manager was extremely accommodating. Bed was very comfy, air-con was perfect for the hot afternoons.

An absolutely beautiful spot only an hour from Darwin,like a different world. If you need to get away to relax and want to safely swim this is a highly recommended spot. The accom is either at the resort or individually managed bungalows. The food at the restaurant is delicious and service is friendly

What a wonderful time we had at lake Bennett management and staff went beyond what we expected they went out of their way 2 make our stays easy as possible South friendly and pleasant place to relax and enjoy the tranquillity I would definitely be back

We stayed here earlier this month on a road trip to Darwin, we wanted to visit Litchfield but stay away from the school holiday crowds/caravans etc and couldn't have been more pleased with this discovery, DeLago Resort is about 40 mins from Litchfield and is situated on Lake Bennet. The views are incredible, we stayed in the Lake View Cabins and they did not disappoint, a very comfortable room, balcony overlooking the water, large bathroom with plentiful hot water. After spending the day at Litchfield it was wonderful to return and enjoy a drink at the Lakeside Bar and watch the sunset, then head to the dining room for dinner. The meals were tasty and great value, I had the beef brisket one night which was amazing, and a steak sandwich the following night which I couldn't finish.. it was huge!! There was a great selection of wines ..lots from SA!! The staff were really friendly and helpful and gave us lots of tips for doing Litchfield. There was also an option to hire kayaks and paddle Lake Bennet but we ran out of time. We really enjoyed our stay!
