Mariner Bay Apartments. Reviewed: May 2010. #5497

Book Mariner Bay Apartments, or Byron Bay Area Accommodation and Hotels.

Missing some of the basics but clean and orderly

With the current "liquids" requirments when flying was not happy to find NO shampoo or conditioner in the bathroom. Little foil sachets would have been fine. No face cloth and NO room service in spite of my leaving a "Tidy my room" request on the door knob. The welcome letter refered to the restaurant opening for breakfast at 6:30am - It didn't open at all and there was no sign or explanation. I booked at this resort because of my partners favourable review of the Tweed Heads resort.

BIG MISTAKE! the two cannot be compared.

Nice rooms, not too bad value.

Was quite happy with the place, was nice & comfortable. Was a little disappointed by the lack of toilet paper & the poor quality dishwashing liquid etc. We were told we were only allowed to use teh dishwashing tablet provided & there was only 1 supplied. When we asked for another we were told were to supply our own, but was instructed on check in to only use the tablets they provided. Made it a little tricky, we ended up hand washing everything.

Great location, even thouogh it was quite noisy. The pool was ridiculous, shouldn't be allowed to advertise there is one, who really wants to swim or bake next to a cafe full of people. Looks like they put it in just to be able charge more. Overall we were happy with the place.

Mostly dissapointed. Air con didn't work. Soap dispenser in shower empty. When I opened the coffee packets all that came out was a grey guey mess which the receptionist blamed on humidity! The room was very humid because the air con wasn't working. The pool needs refurbishing, it looked dirty.

You can book hotels and much more accommodation online.

Huge room, great location!

We stayed here for 3 nights in March 2010. We had a first floor studio apartment with a big bathroom and full kitchenette with micro and fridge. The hotel had direct beach access and was only a 5 min walk to the centre of town. The rooms are not serviced durng your stay but that didn't bother us. If you really need extra towels, you can hire them from reception. You also have to put your own rubbish out on departure but again this was not an inconvenience. The room was fully equipped with iron, sweeping brush and all crockery etc.

We would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to our friends.

Good private accommodation in Byron Bay.

Treetops studio is cheap and cheerful accommodation, well situated close to town and shops. It is situated amongst a lovely rainforest setting that is private and quiet. Good value for budget accommodation.
