We recently spent two nights at the Bay of Many Coves Resort to celebrate our wedding anniversary, and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish. Location is amazing. It is a real hidden paradise - peaceful and scenic. The service was outstanding. Every staff member we encountered was warm and welcoming. Nothing was ever too much trouble. Our room was spacious. The bed deserves a special mention – easily a 10/10 for comfort! The food was another highlight. Every meal was delicious and thoughtfully prepared. We felt so spoiled every evening after a full day exploring the sounds. It was a memorable experience in every way. We’ll absolutely be back!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The staff were friendly, attentive, and always greeted us with big smiles. The location is perfect and the view is stunning. We were surrounded by nature and the sound of morning birdsong. We even spotted a few native birds during our stay. A special shout-out to Mark, Adam and Kevin for their excellent service. The accommodation was top-class and made our stay feel like such a treat. Highly recommended!

We’ve just had the most wonderful few days at Bay of Many Coves. A winter break which we loved as everywhere was so peaceful. Our room had a sensational view, we were extremely well looked after and the food was simply delicious. There were fabulous walking and boating opportunities which we took advantage of. We loved the wildlife and native bush. We highly recommend staying here and look forward to returning ourselves.
