Sleeps 8 – 1 x king, 1 x Queen, 2 x single beds and a set of single bunks.

Situated just a short ferry ride from the mainland, you will feel miles away in paradise.

Located up on the hill with amazing beach views, Marlin Lodge is a stylish yet comfortable 3 bedroom home just a short buggy ride or a pretty stair walk down to Tangalooma Resort.

Peaceful and quiet, you can hear the gentle waves at night and friendly birdsong welcomes the mornings.
Marlin Lodge is an upstairs downstair property with a King-sized bedroom, large bathroom upstairs and a Queen bedroom, twin single room and a set of bunks and a bathroom downstairs.

Both spaces have a comfortable lounge room to chill in and there is also a kitchenette downstairs for use too.

The upstairs pantry has basic supplies for your stay, and the kitchen is fully kitted out with a kettle, 4-slice toaster (an oldie but a goodie!), soda-stream, Nespresso coffee machine, dishwasher, microwave, gas cook top, oven, air fryer and electric wok. There is also a BBQ on the generous deck so you can BBQ with the amazing view.

Laundry is internal in the garage with a washing machine and dryer, a laundry tub, and an extra bathroom & toilet for beach rinse offs.

There is a study work area upstairs, Starlink & Wi-Fi.

As guest of Marlin Lodge you will also have access to the Tangalooma Resort restaurants and bar.

There is a small convenience store on the island, with limited items but is it great for the basics.

There is plenty of equipment provided including boogie & sand boards, hand fishing reels, snorkelling gear and beach chairs, all located in the garage cupboard, and for a bit of down time there is a good selection of board games upstairs in the TV cabinet and an Xbox downstairs. Please be respectful as we enjoy using them just as much as you are going to.

Guest access: You will have access to the entire home except the boat, buggy & gator.

Linen hire is not included, if guests wish to hire sheets, towels, pillowcases and have made beds up prior to arrival, there is an additional fee of $50.00 per person not included in the nightly rates or clean fee.

Moreton getaway

Everything was great with our accommodation. The house has all that is needed for a stay at Moreton Island and and the views were fabulous.

The deck and view were the stars of our trip. Beautiful view, homey vibe (didn't feel like a thrown together holiday house). Super comfy couch and king bed. Well stocked pantry/kitchen and bathroom. Overall the house was spectacular and we had the best stay.Notes: If you're not getting the linen package, remember to bring bath mats and hand towels. The washing machine takes laundry liquid, not powder.Air con was upstairs only (master bedroom and loungeroom). Bedroom a/c worked perfectly but loungeroom one kept cutting out and needed to be reset at the outdoor switch to get it working again. Not a huge problem, just a bit inconvenient.

The house is fantastic, it has 2 completely separate living, kitchen, bedroom and bathroomson 2 separate levels.It would be perfect for 2 families travelling together.There are 307 stairs to get to the resort area but the beauty of this is that it makes the homes so so quiet. The views were stunning the bed we used was comfortable, we bought our own linen and didn't take up the linnen hire and that was fine. Dealing with Paula I found so easy and she was quick to respond when I had questions or queries. There is plenty of kitchen items for use and the 2 fridges were a great size. We visit for 15 days every 2 years and normally book villas. So we bring a majority of our food and alcohol so fridge space is important. The only down side is the steps but that is nothing really to do with the house, we tried to rent a buggy from tangalooma resort but they didn't have any available, but we were able to book taxis to the house and after hours for when we chose to dine at the resort so there are ways around the stairs. I would recommend this accommodation and I already have to interstate family and friends..The only improvement i could suggest would be that you are able to hire their personal buggy like the house next door does but i can also see why this is not an option.

Lovely house, great views of the wreck. The killer is the 278 steps up to the property if walking, doing this several times a day is a challenge. House day air con and was one of the main reasons we booked it, however it’s one unit in the main bedroom, this was disappointing. All the gear to use was fantastic and we made us of the snorkelling kit.
