Marlin Cove Resort Reviews


Marlin Cove resort for families was a fantastic place to rest our heads every night. Our room backed on to the lagoon pool which made it so easy for the kids. If we needed anything it was there and help to work out what to do was always on hand. Walking distance to the beach and restaurants were so easy and many choices to choose from.

Liked: Loved the Pool and the apartment living
Disliked: need a car to get around

Great place to stay and lovely unit/grounds. Only problem/upset we had was the pool cleaning guy was quite rude and aggressive toward my 6yr old daughter one morning. She jumped off the rock into the pool and he was very aggro, she didnt know not too as I didnt advise her of the rules until it was too late. Lose the attitude mate, scaring young kids is not cool.

Good Points;Bedroom, bathroom and kitchen very clean. Loved the gardens and pool.
Bad points:Carpet and lounge suite needs commercial clean and sanitising, very grubby and smelly. we needed to leave windows open and to use air freshener. Oven had never been cleaned, so smoke alarm would go off.very surprised to find no hairdryer, face cloths or handtowel and we had to purchase our own.
But overall we really liked the place and would go back again.

Liked: Quiet location, gardens, carports, peaceful place.
Disliked: State of carpets and furniture

Our holiday was spoiled over the xmas break by overly-keen management making sure there was no 'xmas cheer' around the pool. Little hand written warning signs taped around the beautiful BBQ pool area was really tacky.

They advertised a restaurant but it looked like it had been out-of-action for months.

Rooms were in need of a paint and the furniture was blistered and old.

But, a beautiful spot very close to the beach and shops.

We stayed at Marlin Cove for just over 3 months from January until May and had a wonderful time here, everything was perfect. The apartments and grounds were fantastic and maintained to a very high standard. It is a five minute walk to the beach and a bus stop is right outside to take you anywhere you want to go. The management were amazing and could not do enough for you. They were always there willing to provide help and advice or even just to have a friendly chat. We would just like to thank you all for making our stay so wonderful. Marlin Cove really is paradise in paradise.
