What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Home-Cooked Delights

The food at Blue Marlin is truly amazing. It's like being treated as a guest at a friend's home. Chef Nikki frequently checked in with my son to make sure he enjoyed his meals. We had fresh ingredients like vegetables and herbs that were locally grown. Every dish was beautifully presented, and there was always a delicious fresh juice or tea on offer. Meals were served right beside the water, allowing for the perfect view as we dined.

Comfortable Cabins

Our cabin was just wonderful! We stayed in cabin 17 with a king-sized bed and a lovely porch from which we could see the water. The well-maintained space came with a fridge, a sitting area, and even towel animals that added a special touch. It truly felt like a home away from home, with all the necessary amenities to make our stay comfortable.

Clean and Spacious

The bathroom in our cabin was fully equipped and very clean. It provided ample space and had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. There was nothing better than enjoying the hot shower after a long day of snorkeling and diving, ensuring we felt refreshed for our next adventure.

Really good Water Sports

The snorkeling and diving experiences here were beyond compare! We took a 10 dive package and ended up adding two more because the underwater sights were so stunning. The visibility was great, and we encountered very nice marine life, including turtles and eagle rays. The dive staff prioritized safety while ensuring we had an lovely adventure each time.

This resort offers an incredible experience with stunning views of both sunrise and sunset over the water, making it an ideal getaway for relaxation. The on-site snorkeling and diving opportunities were exceptional, showcasing an array of marine life in pristine conditions. While the dining was a delightful surprise with gourmet meals tailored for each guest, the lack of a standard menu may not suit everyone. Overall, this location is perfect for those looking to disconnect and immerse themselves in nature.

Our stay at Blue Marlin Beach Resort was simply unforgettable! The staff treated us like family, and the meals were always fresh and delicious. The diving and snorkeling opportunities were superb, with breathtaking coral reefs just a short trip away. However, we didn’t want to leave, so that’s a downside, but it just means we’ll be back soon! Highly recommend this place for anyone seeking adventure and relaxation.

Our stay at the resort was absolutely magical! The breathtaking views from our beachfront cabin, combined with top-notch snorkeling and diving experiences, made this a family vacation to remember.

The Blue Marlin Beach Resort is a beautiful escape located close to the Barrier Reef, offering incredible snorkeling and fishing opportunities. The accommodations were basic, yet comfortable, though we did encounter some issues with cleanliness that could be improved. The service was excellent overall, with a standout dinner for our anniversary. The location is truly a paradise, especially for those wanting to explore the marine life.
