Step out your front door to Martha Cove’s glittering harbour, which framed by tall palm trees, sunny boardwalks and rows of boats, feels a lot like a holiday oasis. If you’re a boat owner, enjoy the rare delight of being able to dock your boat right outside the home. An array of onsite facilities like a boat stacker and ramp are also found here, ensuring maintaining your vessel has never been easier. If you’d prefer to stay on land, enjoy scenic strolls around the periphery of the marina where an abundance of green spaces are dotted.
Comprising a restaurant, lounge, cellar and grocer, the newly opened Martha’s Table has already become one of the Peninsula’s major culinary draw cards – and just a minute’s walk from The Wheelhouse. With a focus on Mediterranean flavours, the head chef sources seasonal ingredients from the region’s best farmers and producers to curate a collection of dishes inspired by their locale.
At the restaurant, expect flavourful, wood-fired share plates like spanner crab spaghetti and wood roasted pink eye potatoes. In the lounge, relaxed options like pizzas and charcuterie are yours to enjoy over a bottle of fine wine. Featuring handmade tiles from Italy and Greece along with wallpaper from France and handcrafted joinery, the breathtaking fit out exhibits craftsmanship of the utmost quality, set against a backdrop of the turquoise marina.
