"The Villa Marina is run by two of the most wonderful people you could ever meet. Vince and Erwan were amazing hosts who would do anything to ensure you had a wonderful stay. The hotel is super clean, the breakfasts ensured lunch may not be required! A location not far from the sea or town centre and an overall lovely atmosphere. Their knowledge of the local area was well received by everyone which helped guests make the most of their time in Torquay. I can’t thank them enough for making my stay...

A real gem in Torquay, Big beautiful room, spotlessly clean room and bathroom. Handy complimentary off street parking, central location, short walk to town and ocean. Lovely dining room and breakfast.

The hotel is only about a year old so the building and all the fittings and furniture are in as-new condition. The staff were all cheerful and a delight to work with. The food was good both breakfast and the evening meals.
The location right on the foreshore is attractive with lovely views of the sunrise but it is well away from the centre of Torquay. When I arrived Google maps had the location 300 metres too close to the main part of Torquay so you need to check this before setting a route.

Wonderful atmosphere in the hotel. The staff were all friendly and very helpful. The host was very knowledgable about the area and gave us good advice on ferries, dining options and local attractions and walks/hikes. We would definitely recommend to others and would stay again if we were in the area.

Great little place. The new owner, Sue was a breath of fresh air. New to the trade but eager to please her guests. Place was a little run down however it was clean and comfortable and brekkie was great. Car parking available and easy to walk around to local eateries. Thank you for an enjoyable stay!!
Hope to visit again to see how Sue adds her charm to the place.
