Inside the NT facilities where coronavirus evacuees are being quarantined

The second group of Australian citizens and permanent residents have arrived in Darwin after being evacuated from Wuhan, where they will be quarantined in an old mining camp just outside the city.

The latest group of evacuees will be held in the Manigurr-ma Village at Howard Springs - 30km southeast of Darwin - after the government announced the Christmas Island detention centre, where almost 300 people are currently quarantined, was full.

The complex was built in 2012 by Japanese energy firm Inpex as accommodation for its workers and at its peak housed 3,500 workers.

It was closed in 2018 and has been abandoned since.

Photos from inside the facility show modern medical facilities, a lecture theatre, lap pool, cafeteria, basketball courts, gym and recreation area with a pool table and dartboards. 

It is unclear if the evacuees will have full access to the activities.

The bedrooms appear to have air-conditioning, mini-fridges, desks and coffee and tea making facilities.

The Manigurr-ma Village website describes the complex as a "stylish, innovative and sustainable accommodation village" and the first of it's kind in a major Australian city.

"Residents have access to after-hours activities like swimming, cycling, beach volleyball and indoor cricket to improve and maintain their health and fitness," according to the website.

The new quarantine area seems a far cry from the facilities on Christmas Island, which were originally constructed to house illegal immigrants and asylum seekers.

Evacuees housed on the island, which is located in the Indian Ocean and closer to Indonesia than Australia's west coast, have complained of cockroaches in their bedrooms and poor internet connections.

All Australians evacuated from the Chinese city of Wuhan, which remains under lockdown, are required to submit to quarantining for two-weeks before being able to re-enter wider society.

Fifteen people have so far been diagnosed with the coronavirus in Australia, with more than 30,000 infected worldwide.
