A beautiful traditional old house which felt like a lovely home. Cosy and well furnished, felt a special place to stay. The manager recommended a lovely restaurant a short walk away and a pleasant evening. I had a virtual meeting later on in the evening with the UK and the wifi worked perfectly. The manager could not have been more responsive and attentive. Thank you

We had a suite which was large and faced the pool area. Bed was comfortable and the living room and kitchen were nice to have to take care of our toddler. The location was the main draw. Walk to restaurants, nearby beaches, and an easy drive to explore the hinterland (which is beautiful) or go to Byron Bay.

    The view and the layout of the units. We had 11 people staying in the 2 x 3 bedroom apartments and 2 x 2 bedroom apartments and everyone was very comfortable. We came up to Ballina to participate in a state bowls competition and were very satisfied with our accommodation.

    Even though I wasn’t travelling with kids I know that they would absolutely love it here! So many free things to do. Huge pool/water play. Jumping pillow and mini golf. Public playground nearby also. The accommodation was very clean with everything we needed for our stay and the price was very good. I couldn’t fault anything.
