Disappointed stay
Unable to connect tv to Wi-Fi and staff couldn't help either. Apartment has very noisy flooring. Some improvements attempted with tiling, but lipstick on a pig. Shower very small and mouldy. Location good but couldn't recommend.
Mariners Cove has been our favourite holiday destination on every one of our anniversaries for 31 years. Hopefully there will be more stays.
The rooms are so well appointed and the view from the private terrace thrills us every time. Such a wonderful place!

Great property, great location, great service. Will stay again.
The unite are beautifully designed, making the stay a really elevating experience. Proximity to the main shopping strip and Raymond Island ferry is very convenient.
This property is ideally located to catch the free ferry to Raymond Island where koalas can be easily seen. Our room had a pleasant outdoor area overlooking a marina with an interesting selection of water birds.
Great welcome from the front desk , spotless recently renovated , fresh roomy well appointed unit . Patio overlooking water , boats and waterfronts . Excellent shower . Would return . Top class motel in great location walking distance to shops and Raymond Island
