Top Picnic Bay Beach Hotel Reviews

Picnic Bay Hotel

Picnic Bay Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"These are newly renovated units that are very modern and functional. The decor is great and the size is adequate. The free breakfast offered is so amazingly tasty and large in portion generously. The shuttle service is included which is so prompt and efficient from and to the ferry terminal. The staff are very accommodating, friendly and pleasant. We highly recommend this hotel which is 5 mins from the terminal. The location is quiet and restaurant is next door to the hotel. There are a few other restaurants very close to the hotel on the esplanade. Overall, it’s a 5 star with great amenities and service."

ISLAND ADVENTURE HOLIDAY HOUSE

8/10 Good
"Convenient spot at Picnic Bay 200 metre walk to cafes, pub , beach and playground . Much less busy than Horseshoe bay which we loved . Great walk up the mountain for sunset. Not too hard we did it with pre schooler . Classic beach house high ceilings tiled floor well equiped kitchen with some extras like salt pepper glad wrap and some spices well appreciated . Fans and air con not needed as June was lovely days 27 and cooler nights . However no fly screens so we couldn’t leave windows open . No mozzies but geckos and other night creatures ( wallabies in the lawn !) very exciting . Beds were not super comfortable fairly firm so a few toppers would be great . Otherwise really enjoyable and big enough for our family with 5 bedrooms ."
