We stayed here as a quick overnight stop before continuing to Fraser Island, and we showed up around 8pm when everything in town was closed. The hosts were very friendly and even offered me some food out of their fridge since we had a long afternoon of driving and no dinner. They were very friendly, and the room was comfy... More

Our first stay at Tin Can Bay and we think that we stayed at the best motel in town that suited our needs. The hosts Jeff and Gael are the friendliest people and could not do any more to make sure our stay was enjoyable. The rooms are extremely clean and modern. The pool and BBQ area was excellent. And...

I booked this motel as it was convenient for us coming from Gold Coast to go to Rainbow beach. We needed to stay somewhere that was affordable and that had good reviews and after reading other comments on trip advisor I decided to go with this motel. I was pleasantly surprised to be greeted and welcomed warmly and Gaol certainly... More

This place is exceptionally clean, quiet, comfortable and situated only minutes from the Dolphins. We were able to walk into town for dinner and fish off the pier at the other end. The rooms were accommodating and supplied everything you needed for a family. BUT THE SERVICE WAS AMAZING!! If you didn't have anything - it was provided If you... More

The experience of being with and feeding wild Dolphins was just incredible!! We couldn't wipe the smile off the kids faces for DAYS!! But, all of this was made SO easy because of the amazing service and assistance we received from Gael at Tin Can Bay Motel. We phoned up quite late having decided last minute to go to Tin... More

We had a great stay - 4 days and 3 nights. Room was clean and comfortable and the hosts were very friendly and informative. Our 4 legged family member also received a treat on arrival! The grounds were great and we enjoyed the barbecue facilities on 2 of our three night stay. We will certainly come back.

Gael and her husband greeted us like friends from the moment we arrived. They have really upgraded and refurbished this quiet oasis adjacent to the bay. Loved the location with rainbow lorikeets and honey eaters all over the nice gardens. Enjoyed the pool and BBQ area. Nice town as well. Loved seeing the wild river dolphins.

I'm a single mum of 2 kids. We stayed at the Tin Can Bay Motel. The hospitality was above and beyond. Jeff and Gael made sure that we had everything we needed and nothing was too much bother. Clean and comfortable room. Plenty of room for the kids to run around. We were given ideas for places to visit and... More
