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.

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.

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.

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.

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*

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.

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.
