Wynnum Anchor Motel

What guests think

Wynnum Anchor Motel draws consistent praise for friendly, attentive hosts, very clean rooms, and a quiet, waterside setting that suits short stays and family stopovers, while a modest pool and BBQ area add simple, relaxed leisure options.

Rooms are comfortable and vary from compact to spacious, with some newer fittings. Trade-offs include limited nearby dining and transport for some, occasional noise from neighbors, and a few maintenance or security quirks, plus reports of unusable Wi‑Fi. Expect a clean, friendly, low-frills stay by the bay.

This was a perfect overnight spot for our family. The staff were lovely and accommodating. Our kids enjoyed the pool. We walked the coastline which was close to the motel.

We stayed in the executive suite and it was wonderful. Very large room and very well set out. My one criticism is that the bed was too soft for me - but my wife thought it was okay. Helpful, friendly staff. A nice pool and a short walk from the Mangrove Boardwalk. We'd definitely stay again.

Good stay. Only negative was that numbered car spaces didn’t match the rooms. I couldn’t see why if you had room 2 you didn’t have car space 2. This was inconvenient for moving you stuff in and out, meant you had to disturb other rooms when you were parking later at night, and you worried a bit about the security of your car. Annoying mainly because it didn’t make sense

We stayed for two busy days in Brisbane and were very happy to find this motel. It was a bit out of the way for our day activities and not a wide variety of close dining options but Uber solved that. Adorable coffee shop within walking distance. Laundry facilities on site was very helpful. Very accommodating with late check in. Beautiful views and super lovely owners!

The Motel is an older one, but well maintained inside and out and beautifully clean. The area is quiet and seems safe. it is close to the water and a 1.5 - 2km walk to the CBD, so very walkable. There was plenty of parking.

$170 in peak period.Beds clean and comfy, but there was someones black hair in shower and on sink in several places. Ground level is nice it is so much easier than carting stuff up stairs and theres a small pool near by.Its a smaller cute little motel andwould have been a good sleepin but there is always some moreon waking you up with something early in the morning in this case a car alarm. Drive to and Try the mexican place near by its amazing!!

Room was clean with comfortable beds. Shower hose was a bit rusty and needs replacing. There was no safety locks in the windows nor did the windows lock at all. We resorted to puting a coat hanger into the window frame as a "barricade" the window. We were not happy about this but the front desk was closed so we had no option but to make due.

Sam and Julia were excellent hosts. The premises was very clean and fresh and we really enjoyed our stay here. Our Deluxe unit 1 was the best. I expected just a room but instead got a bedroom, kitchenette and bathroom. After a little issue with my card (my fault), everything was sorted in a friendly, professional manner. I would not hesitate recommending this place to anyone.
