Top South Ballina Hotel Reviews

Drifter Byron Bay

10/10 Excellent

"very welcoming and helpful staff, who explained everything to us to make the most from our stay. The room was clean and had everything that you would require. Good location for everything, all in all a really good place to stay."

The Sebel Byron Bay

8/10 Good

"Large, comfortable room, easy access and great location."

Ramada Hotel and Suites Ballina Byron

8/10 Good

"All was perfect On a bien profité"

Ballina Byron Islander Resort and Conference Centre

10/10 Excellent

"This motel is great value for money. Highly recommended"

Glen Villa Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The reception staff were excellent very accommodating and friendly, well located only a 5 minute walk to the Byron's town centre and beach. The cabins and the whole property was neat,clean and well maintained, I have no hesitation of recommending Glen Villa for a place to stay and will definitely be going back there in the future. There is a neat little coffee hut just outside the reception serving a good coffee and an assortment of food items."

Ballina Beach Nature Resort

8/10 Good

"Such a soft comfy bed. I stayed in a glamping tent. Was hot so I. Glad there was AC. Only thing I’d like to see perhaps is a little mirror and a shelf to put clothes etc on. Yes I understand that it’s a ‘swag’ but if you have a bed and fridge and sink etc may sweep make it a bit more glampy and pop a mirror and somewhere to put clothes instead of on the floor. Good location. Short drive to beach, probably can walk it, nice little water park too. Clean and tidy facilities. Bit pricey for the glamping tent though. If staying for a while and want secure tent, bring a little padlock. They have one to use too. Overall good stay and would visit again."

The Cubana Ballina

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay. easy access to shops and restaurants. Close proximity made travel easy. Parking was a bit tight. free spaces, but a narrow turn to get in and out."

Waves Byron Bay

10/10 Excellent

"Great spot to spend a few days. Quiet and comfortable rooms, generous private outdoor area and short walk to the beach and the Main Street. Recommend"

Wollongbar Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Very convenient for Byron town centre, just 5 minute walk to shops, restaurants, beach etc. Quiet despite being on the main road into Byron. Everything in the room required for a 2 night stay."
