Review 1:A little on the expensive side when you are only staying one night and don't have time to appreciate the attractions in the area.
Review 2:Beds were fantastic. Walking distance to beach, pubs and a great tapas restaurant.
Review 3:The managers were so friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble. They gave us some fantastic tourist tips and greeted us so warmly whenever we returned from our day trips. We'd definitely stay again!
Review 4:The balconies were not very private and guests in the cafe could see straight in, which meant we had to keep the blinds down.
Review 5:The friendly atmosphere and staff. The rooms were great and well set up.
Review 6:no space, toilet was stained with urea, couldn't open bathroom window no fly screen and opened onto another balcony. verandah door had to have blind down as you could see into unit from street. Very claustrophobic. went to use small pool and people from bistro looked into area.
Review 7:bed was soft
Review 8:No elevator but staff helped carry heavy bags.
Review 9:Max and Glynis were wonderfully helpful hosts,helped with luggage and recommended restaurants. Wifi was the best we found in our travels. Great location and lovely views.
Review 10:The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The location was fantastic and the room we stayed in was roomy, clean and comfortable. Couldn't be happier with our stay!
Review 11:Fantastic location, spotlessly clean, super comfy bed, very helpful office staff, room was beautifully appointed with thoughtful extras. Would definitely stay there again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Perfect!
Review 12:The staff were very friendly and go out of their way to accomodate they supplied us with tennis racquets for the court across the road- that the golf club actually hires out.
Review 13:Nothing bad....all very good
Review 14:Staff couldnot have been more helpful. Have stayed before & each time has been a most satisfactory experience The restaurant downstairs only adds to the satisfaction level
Review 15:No complaints! Can't wait to go back!
Review 16:Everything! My husband & I chose this motel at random as we were planning our elopement in Yamba. The staff were SO attentive to our every need! They went above & beyond our expectations & provided us with a lovely venue to get ready for our secret wedding & we also celebrated at the attached restaurant Pippis which was also above & beyond our expectations! They couldn't help us enough & were so friendly & understanding. Our wedding party consisted of 3 close friends & ourselves & our best man also stayed at the Motel. We would HIGHLY recommend this venue to anyone. It is very close to the township but is also quiet & very clean. We would like to personally thank Glenis & Max from Yamba Beach Motel & Karen & Mal from Pippis for making our stay so special & memorable! We cannot thank you all SO much & look forward to spending our anniversary there next year to catch up with our new found "family"
Review 17:There was a bit of a lack of space for making tea or coffee although the equipment to do so was all available in the room. There was a rather strange notice that it was prohibited to prepare food in the room although a toaster and microwave oven were provided.
Review 18:Welcome at reception was very friendly and helpful, hotel was nicely situated, close to the sea and not far from town centre and our room was very clean and well furnished.
Review 19:Very warm Spring day made room hot, but room had fan and air -con.
Review 20:Great location(overlooking a park) within walking distance to clubs shops and close to beach. Microwave, toaster were very handy or cafe downstairs. Off street parking and friendly staff. Would definitely return.
Review 21:The room was lovely, very well appointed with everything you could wish for, including a ceiling fan. Bath sheets, liquid soap, beautiful bedding and mattress. Absolutely spotless room, guest desk was very helpful, Pippis café downstairs was delicious. Would most definitely will stay again and highly recommend.
Review 22:balcony with a sea view and not in full sun. Car park space; very nice and friendly couple who run it and gave us some wine to celebrate my husband's birthday! Comfortable, good bed.
Review 23:The owners were lovely and Pipis café next door had excellent food and coffee. The motel room was clean and had a view over the pool and toward the sea. You can walk straight out the front door and only 100m to a lookout to the sea,whales and dolphins.
Review 24:We did not rate the restaurant very well for one evening meal. It was almost 1hour to be served a very ordinary meal
Review 25:The new owners went out of their way to help us get settled,carrying bags up stairs for us.The room was clean with a lovely balcony overlooking the beach
Review 26:Took a long time to book in and didn't offer a late checkout, luckily my next venue kindly let me in early so I could get ready for my function.
Review 27:Close to the function I was attending, really loved the little restaurant at the hotel although had to wait a ridiculous amount of time for a takeaway coffee. Happy and friendly cleaning staff.
Review 28:Noisy restaurant for breakfast - Gaggle of girls celebrating birthday and coffee machine - should have sat outside. Had to lug 2 heavy bags up to the top floor. Space in fridge taken up by stuff for sale.
Review 29:Close to beach. Quite room. Balcony to have coffee and snacks. Large TV. Yamba seems like a nice place.
Review 30:Having not been to Yamba before, reception had already prepared a map of the town with eating places marked out - very helpful. Terrific position, walking distance to most places and the beach just below. Had an oceanview room which was very roomy and comfortable. Enjoyed our stay so much that we booked again for a few days over Christmas. Would definitely recommend.
Review 31:We made this booking online without any recommendations. We were pleasantly surprised by the great location and nice facilities. Our room had a view of the ocean and was very clean and comfortable. Great bed. Highly recommended.
Review 32:Perfect overnight stay and close to everything. Glynnis & Max were very welcoming and could not have been more helpful. The motel had a lovely beachy feel, was immaculate and set up with all that you would require. A great breakfast was enjoyed at the cafe directly under the motel whilst we took in the beautiful sea view. We will definitely return, stay longer and book a seaview room.
Review 33:Super comfy bed, cute pool, top location near beach but still close to centre of town, nice balcony with view, utterly spotless, too. Very friendly management who were very easy to deal with despite our late arrival. More hotels should be run this well!
Review 34:We dined at the restaurant on Saturday evening and the meal was average.
Review 35:Great place to stay, clean, nicely decorated and the bed was very comfortable.
Review 36:Very comfortable King Koil Chateau bed. Complimentary fresh milk for coffee. Very clean bathroom. Room with a view. Great location. Very friendly and helpful managers.
Review 37:Efficient check in, very easy. Pleasant managers. Bed was super comfortable, luxury towels. Parking on site. Location great for walking to local restaurants.
Review 38:Away from the centre of town & right on the beach. A very pleasant environment. Great for a couple.
Review 39:Our third visit. Quiet, comfortable & a great location. Staff are tops. Good value. Will be back.
Review 40:Not suitable for self catering - to wash up glasses you have to collect water from the bathroom in a basin. Bar fridge and microwave supplied.
Review 41:We liked the beach view and proximity to good restaurants.There is a lovely walk down to the beach and around the headland to the south.
Review 42:The structure of the motel is compact and the room size is comfortable but economical. This was not a problem for us but noisy neighbours might become a problem
Review 43:A lot of care and quality appointments lift this motel from an older style model to a very comfortable experience There is a restaurant directly in front of the motel / open for breakfast and dinner - that offers a lited but quality menu. This motel is minutes from the beach.
Review 44:The only thing that we decided we didn't like was that the unit wasn't serviced daily. Fresh towels and bed-making would have been appreciated. But none the less, this was not a big problem for us. It didn't impact how much we enjoyed our stay. We still had a wonderful time.
Review 45:Loved how friendly the staff were and how they accommodated for our request of having a king bed rather than two singles. This was a huge issue for us as we were two young couples. They happily resolved the issue of the two singles and throughout the entirety of our stay were so friendly and helpful. Thank you.
Review 46:we liked the friendly service and the attention to detail- container of water in fridge,detailed information about Yamba and the bed Goldilocks would have loved!
Review 47:Stairs to room, but not really a problem. No fly screens on windows eg in bathroom
Review 48:The location was very handy for us to catch up with family members staying just around the corner. Room was all we needed.
Review 49:The property managers were exceptionally helpful. They went out of their way to make us feel welcome and also provided additional walking and bike riding maps.
Review 50:Bed wasn't as firm as I would of liked. Don't think washing our own dishes was very hygienic. Could be an ohs issue if people didn't wash properly.
Review 51:Position.
Review 52:From the minute we arrived we were looked after with extraordinary care - the attention to detail was amazing - especially for the price. So - luxurious bed with an extra comfy mattress topper; dressing gown; top of the range toiletries; free wifi (only free one we had in almost 3 weeks) lots of unbiased suggestions of where to eat etc etc would return here for sure
Review 53:We stayed for 2 days but our room was not made up on the second day. While we were happy to reuse the towels we would have liked our bed to be made, coffee cups washed.
Review 54:Stairs..
Review 55:Yamba is a beautiful place to visit and the Yamba Beach Motel is very convenient. Close to the beach, bed comfort is fantastic, pillows amazing. Restaurant below great. Second visit.

Review 57:Location and view across headland. Within easy walking distance of 4 restaurants. Friendly staff.
Review 58:Hard climb up stairs to top floor room.Wi fi reception poor. Wanted to charge us $25 to clean the mini kitchenette. Forced us to eat out.
Review 59:Close to beach
Review 60:Overpriced..$330..paid for the location and not the hotel!!!!!!(Have stayed in much better for half the price)... Totally wasn't satisfied).NO lift had to lug heavy suitcase up several steep flights of stairs... Hurt my hip doing so..room located next to street.. Vehicle movement... Parking very limited.. Booking.com-I booked this facility on your recommendation..!!!!!
Review 61:Location...
Review 62:We were very impressed with every aspect of Yamba Beach Motel. It is very well located with great views of the iconic Yamba main beach. We had a very relaxing time and loved also having a cafe just downstairs. All staff we very friendly and helpful - highly recommended
Review 63:Bed was too soft, shouldn't have to wash dishes, especially when there is no sink (it's a motel). Way over priced for what you get. Terrible car park. Stayed in other Motels with more for less on our travels & wouldn't recommend to others.
Review 64:Clean & comfortable. Staff were very helpful.
Review 65:We stayed on christmas eve and that night we didn't have enough sleep because there was a van with young group of people in the car park area near the beach that were noisy and their music is so loud. People in that area should complain as not good for people having holidays.
Review 66:We like the view, location and the room. Nice room, tidy and spacious.
Review 67:Nothing really.
Review 68:Excellent position.The room was very spacious. Handy to everything,in particular within easy walking distance to the beautiful Yamba beach. Close to the Yamba Pacific hotel which has good food and a magnificent view of the ocean.
Review 69:The bed was a bit to soft and the fact that they provided a bucket to wash your own dishes or risked being charged $25
Review 70:The location was good and the view from our balcony
Review 71:We bought the 'ocean view' room but it had glimces only and the view was blocked out by the big motel next door.
Review 72:Staff were good - we left our key in the room and they had to come from their home to let us in (no 24 hr staff on premisies)
Review 73:Noisy due to other guests which couldnt be helped. Reception was closed on arrival. Fair enough checkin is 2pm but after a long drive it would have been nice to see someone at least at 1pm. We left one night early due to noise and receptionist didn't seem bothered or sympathetic sadly.

Review 83:Close to beach and only five minutes walk from town. Staff friendly - family concern. There was a carnival over the road, but in our room we didn't hear any noise.
Review 84:The p;ocation is excellant. As we booked a room with a view of the ocean our original allocated room was a little disappinting whe this view was expressed the manager moved us to a mkore suitable room which met all our expectations. We had a great meal in the resturant in the complex, good food and friendly service.
Review 85:Awkward driveway to negotiate would like a light over kitchenette area
