Guest Reviews
- Robert (8/5): - Friendly and helpful staff
- Andrew (10/5): - Louise and Martin whom manage the property are nothing short of amazing. They went way over and above to assist us with my requests. Will stay here every visit to the Brisbane area.
- Karyn (10/5): - Loved our stay!
- Nik Roné (10/5): - Decent motel in a lovely area with easy access to lots of local amenities. Nothing fancy, but comfortable.
- Marilyn (10/5): - The room was wonderful and the woman at the front desk was so lovely and helpful. It was a very relaxing place to stay.
- Natasha (10/5): - Great location, price was good. Room was nice. Highly recomend
- Melinda (10/5): - Quiet, clean and staff were friendly and pleasant
- Nathan (4/5): - Was very clean and nice staff but far to expensive for what it is
- Robyn (6/5): - When I booked my room I did not realise it would be with a disability bathroom which I did not particularly like. While I wanted to be on the ground floor I was not expecting this. When you had a shower it flooded the toilet area and most of the bathroom. There was no vanity around the washbasin and no where to put your toiletries, etc. The bed was nice and it was close to the Yacht club so dining was convenient.
- Roger (8/5): - It would be nice if we could use the conference room (used to be a breakfast room) to make toast in the mornings as there is no longer toasters in the rooms because of fire risk.
- Michelle (10/5): - Excellent stay
- Nicola (10/5): - Louise was wonderful from the start. Great room, by the seaside. Walk to train to get into Brisbane Massive heated pool by down road Amazing birds around cove, best fish and chips. 100% would come again. Thank you.
- Mark (10/5): - .
- Grahams (10/5): - Great locatiin and relaxed area. Yacht club near by for breakfast etc extremely nice.
- Jacqueline (10/5): - Great little spot
- Verified traveler (6/5): A bit disappointed - We had a few issues- first we had communication issues trying to get the late arrival access information. In the room there was someone else’s hand cream in the bathroom, a light was flickering, the luggage rack nearly fell apart because a bolt had no nut and the fridge kept freezing the milk. There was a safe in the room but it didn’t work and apparently none of them did but there was no note telling the guest not to use it.
- Kelli (10/5): - Great place to stay. Friendly staff and immaculate rooms.
- Brian David (8/5): - All good.
- Lynda (6/5): Disappointed - We thought the room was over priced. We found the bed uncomfortable and unfortunately the housekeeping was not good. However the staff and manager were good. I am sorry but I cannot recommend this accommodation.
- Leanne (10/5): - The staff here helped a grumpy tired woman. Into happy rested and satisfied customer. I finally had a decent rest. Didn’t realise how tired and exhausted I’d become. They made sure that neighbours were more quiet. I think there beds are the most comfortable thing I have ever slept in. They have gone out of there way to make sure I have had a pleasant stay. I very grateful to them I think next time I come here it will be for a longer stay. So I can explore more of the beautiful surroundings. The food I’ve eaten here has been amazing. My eye have been blessed with stunning views. My life is full of abundance. Thank you Manly Marina Cove. 5*
- Anna (10/5): Great location - Great location for sailing regattas. Hotel is basic but very clean and has what you need. Particularly liked the drying racks offered. The little pool got a lot of use after sailing.
- Keith (10/5): - Great location.
- Dr Donald (10/5): - Mom & Pop operation. Great service. Friendly people. Just unfortunate that with my disability the only twin bed ground floor available had a shower over a bathtub not a walk in shower. However managed for 2 night stay as room was big enough otherwise. Was given the room number to ask for next time on checkout, twin beds, roll in shower, being a disability room even though on 2nd floor there is a lift. There are only 2 floors. Restaurant next door at yacht Club. Great position for travellers. Will definitely be back.
- Rachel (8/5): - Love the area
- Douglas (8/5): - A great little motel with friendly staff, good service and clean facilities.
- Ashleigh (10/5): - Our family of five was very comfy in our suite. Very clean and had everything we needed. Club across the road was perfect for sunset drinks and dinner
- Caroline (10/5): - Great stay
- Bonnie (10/5): - The staff was amazing !
- Laura (10/5): - Beautiful spot at the Marina. Easy 1 km walk to restaurants & shops. And 1.5 km walk to the train station. Nice and quiet. A bit remote and a ways from Brisbane though.
- Nancy (10/5): - Lovely reception & service staff
- Paul (10/5): - Management & Staff wonderful. Close to several restaurants and coffee shops. Guest membership to Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron Bistro & bar just across the parking lot
- Paul (10/5): - Wonderful managers and very courteous & polite staff. Guest membership at RQ Yacht Squadron bistro just across parking lot. Many fine venues for food and coffee nnearby or within short walk. Minor issue with fan in ceiling coming loose but fixed promptly when reported to managers
- Megan (8/5): - Our room was lovely and clean for our family of 5. We would stay there again.
- Cynthia (10/5): - Great spot. Would highly recommend.
- Bryson (10/5): - Highly recommend this motel, large rooms, quality artwork in hallways, spotless property.
- Karine (10/5): - The second time I shave stayed here and look forward to coming back for my third visit. Great ammenities, quiet and fabulous location.
- Trasia (8/5): - Beautiful place and good services
- Tara (10/5): - The service from Louise was next level, she was friendly and helpful. The room was tidy and they set up a trundle bed for my youngest prior to arrival.
- Michelle (10/5): - Clean, comfortable
- rob (4/5): - Very limited to dining
- SAKET (8/5): Clean and Comfy but pricey - Though it is a property at the Marina but it location is on the back right corner away from the bay and even from the Marina. Practically there is no view at all. The people at the reception were very helpful and there is a cafe / bistro of the yacht club, which serves yummy food. Else there is food choices 600-800m on either side. There is nothing there to do except for the people connected with the Marina and that makes me wonder why did we book there. Got to see a very different laid back side of Brisbane. I found the property to be expensive at A$210 for a night in a motel.
- Tony and Diane (10/5): - nice location and quite
- Paul (10/5): - Nice quiet area by the Yacht club
- Margaret (10/5): Handy for Sailors - Good option if you are a sailor. Squadron right next door and you get entrance to this for dinner etc. Old but very clean and pleasant staff at reception
- Karen (6/5): - Our room smelt very musty.
- John (10/5): - Next to Royal Qld Sailing Club and restaurant
- Sue (8/5): - A great place to stay for sailors - friendly helpful staff and comfortable rooms
- Susan (10/5): - It would be better if it had security screen doors to keep the mosquito out 😊
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location, easy to get to and very courteous staff.
- Geoff (10/5): - Staff very friendly and helpfull
- Werner (10/5): - Manager went to some trouble to get a couple of lower pillows for us . Didn’t really have to
- Frances (10/5): - Nice place
- Helen (10/5): - Lovely area, property, rooms, and staff. Convenient free parking. Rooms are spacious and beds very comfortable. Walking distance to shops, grocery store, bottle shop and restaurants. There is a small outdoor market nearby. We purchased beef at the IGA to barbecue on Moreton Island and we still rave about it today. Perfect place to stay the day before you ferry over to Moreton.
- Michael (6/5): - Excellent location!
- Karen (8/5): - Friendly owners and staff.
- David (6/5): - Lovely motel. Dated but clean and tidy
- Paul (8/5): Great location - Only downside was strong smell of diesel from nearby marina.

- Darryl (10/5): - Bathroom smelt musty so left the fan on an door open to air it out. Arrived a bit early as we had perishables so were keen to get them in the fridge but strictly 2pm as per website we were told unfortunately 😞
