...Architectural whimsy has been given full flight in the design of the hotel, which is shaped like a crocodile. Rest assured, normal facilities, including a central courtyard with shaded swimming pool, an outdoor barbecue area and a restaurant offering gourmet bush tucker (Ozspeak for outback specialties) lie within.
