"Our stay at Marina Resort exceeded expectations. The renovations are amazing, the hotel looks and feels brand new. Our room was spacious, spotless, and well equipped, with a huge, incredibly comfortable bed. We had beautiful weather and spent most of our day relaxing by the pool on the lounge beds.

"Absolutely loved our stay! The reception staff was helpful and just lovely, bringing towels to my kids when she heard they were in the pool. The apartment we stayed in was the 3-bedroom apartment. It was quite dated, however clean, and there was everything we needed, really. Great positon to go for walks to various beaches that surround the area and close to Nelson Bay."
