Manly Marina Cove Motel

Manly Marina Cove Motel is a waterfront accommodation option in Brisbane’s Wynnum–Manly bayside area, set on the grounds of the Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron and overlooking Moreton Bay. The motel describes itself as a modern four-star boutique property, with a quieter setting by the water while still being within walking distance of Manly Harbour Village and the Wynnum–Manly–Lota esplanade.

The location suits travellers who want to spend time outdoors, with nearby walking, cycling and jogging paths along the bay. Guests also have access to the yacht squadron’s bar and restaurant, while charter boats operate from Manly and nearby Wynnum for those looking to explore the Moreton Bay Marine Park and its islands. The motel is close to public transport, with links to Brisbane’s CBD and the Redland Bay region, and sits near the Gateway Motorway for travel towards the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast.

Opened in December 2007, the property offers a range of accommodation options and had its first-floor rooms refurbished in 2016. Its peaceful setting and proximity to local business areas make it suitable for visitors attending business in the Port of Brisbane, Murarrie, Hemmant or Rivergate precincts, as well as guests travelling for sailing regattas, weddings and functions. It also suits travellers passing through Brisbane who prefer a relaxed bayside base, with Wynnum’s retail centre a short drive away and Brisbane’s domestic and international airports within convenient reach.
