Property was OK. Pool filter (I assume?) sounded really loud in the room I was in and broke the serenity (from about 8 in the morning I think). Otherwise all good.

I loved my little terraced balcony on the ground floor. While it is a bit dated, the rooms where spotless and the amenities in the room were great. The people are so friendly and helpful, and the little town of Flinders is so cute. I had a wonderful 2 night break, so peaceful and quiet.

This motel is a 70s classic in its style - though has had a tough year with Covid and there is some maintenance work to be done. The 70s vibe is from the exposed brick and the wood-work and this could be highlighted. The heating system was either noisy (through-wall air-con unit) or a small fan-heater on the floor. The latter was enough (set on "low") to warm the room and was quiet...but would not be the most ecologically friendly solution. We had a very friendly welcome and a great breakfast next door.

Basic motel but what we needed was there. Unfortunate the power went off in Flinders which made things difficult. A few cobwebs in bathroom otherwise fine.

Overall ok. Location excellent. Property needs to be better maintained. Spiders and spider webs visible in the room and in the very dirty pool area. Power points coming off the wall in the room.

The Flinders cove was a lovely place to stay. Great location. Lovely service. The room we were in was rather dated, and the heater definitely needs to be upgraded - but the site is working it’s way through the rooms. Would definitely stay here again 😁

Perfect Location
Flinders Cove Motel is a 40yo building and is showing it. The room itself was previously used as a meeting room so is a little larger they the majority. It smelt of stale cigarettes. The good bit is that is perfect location, comfy bed and strong hot shower

I went to Flinders to play golf and visit my daughter. There is a hotel across the road and a café on the motel complex, which was a nice way to start your day.
