Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Awesome experience, nice comfortable rooms with views of the canals, close to shops and restaurants, and the staff are very helpful and friendly. Plenty of parking, and if you have a boat, there is private jetties too. Also bbq to use and just a great spot.

Perfect location in the heart of Paynesville, beautifully refurbished apartment overlooking the marina and Raymond Island. Super comfortable beds with quality bedding, all windows boast water views, lovely lounge area to relax in. This is a regular stay for us and as usual we couldn’t fault the apartments or the management.

This is our third time staying at Mariners Cove. The motel has been sold and refurbished since we were last there. The structure remains the same, windows, doors and layout however the tiles, paint and carpets have been refreshed along with new furniture. The beds are large and comfortable and the the location is great. Highly recommended!

What a way to finish our south Coast Trip. We had a 1 Bedroom apartment looking out onto the marina. The apartment was clean and comfortable and the reason for not giving full marks was that the bedroom was on the upper floor with a combination bathroom and laundry on the bottom floor, not good for those needing to visit the loo at night.

Mariners Cove has had a facelift since we were last here. Looks great. Rooms are spotless and having direct access to a jetty for our boat is an added bonus. Very comfy bed and great location within short walk to the best restaurants in Paynesville.
