Restaurants & Cafés

  • Beach House
    If you are after absolute beachfront and a wall full of awards – for very good reason – the Beach House restaurant gets modern Australian dining just right. It’s famous for its fresh local produce – and remember, you’re on a holiday, so no stuffiness here.
  • Romano's Italian Restaurant
    You might be a long way from Lygon Street (or Rome, for that matter) but you can still look forward to authentic yet innovative Italian at Romano’s. Seafood is, as you’d expect, a staple.
  • Steakhouse
    Australia’s finest farms are well represented on the menu at Steakhouse. All the meats are sourced from premium beef growing regions with cuts to match.
  • Pool Terrace Restaurant
    An intimate à la carte dinner; a casual, snack-style lunch; a buffet breakfast. The menu covers it all - and the peaceful outlook to the Reef View Hotel pool provides the perfect backdrop.
  • Mariners
    From the freshest seafood to contemporary takes on juicy duck and succulent eye fillet, Mariners is a pleasure to visit, as much for the stunning views as it is for the service.
  • Manta Ray Café
    If you want to dine with the locals, try Manta Ray Café for its famous wood-fired pizza as well as pasta, salads and more.
  • Sails restaurant 
    The hub of the island and newly refurbished, Sails overlooks the Dolphin Pool and beyond to Catseye Beach – so breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks come with a complimentary side serving of idyllic views.
  • Marina Deli
    Laid-back, casual - perfect. Right at the heart of the Marina Village, grab a gourmet panini, wrap or great coffee here.
