    The Marina Resort is located at the top of the hill quite close to the town centre so the local shops and D'Albora Marina are a short walk. There was plenty of parking and the pool was convenient for when the nearby beaches were either packed or conditions weren't great.

    Loved that you didn’t want to leave. Views, balcony, pool, cabana plus the space itself made it like a resort. Private at all times.

    The resort has great views of the Nelson Bay Marina and is a short walk from both the Marina and town centre. The room has a good air-conditioner and the price for the two nights was good.

    Awesome stay! We were a family of 10 staying for 4 nights and there was plenty of space for everyone. Luxury stay with new and clean furnishings. Everything was working well and kitchen was fully equipped. Supermarket & restaurants is only a short drive away. Garage is good for 1 car but we were allowed to park the 2nd car on the driveway. Super nice & we enjoyed our stay very much.

    The view was good in the distance, and walking distance to shops and marina was relatively close. The food/drinks in the restaurant next door (The Nelson Way) was fantastic and highly recommend, however this is separately owned to the 'resort'.

    Great property, more of a hotel or holiday apartment complex than a resort but we enjoyed it. Could have some updating in the bathrooms. The adjoining restaurant is amazing .
