"Excellent quiet well maintained and managed motel in Yamba - rooms have a great aspect on the pool which gives those specific rooms a real holiday vibe. I’ve stayed here four times and I’ve always found this motel really well priced, whichever season (high, medium or low)."

"Although taking the cheaper room it had a view to die for and the room was lovely and clean with dining on site. Although they have live music some nights, this is told prior so no complaints there. Plenty of dining options if you don't want to eat at the hotel and walkable. Great stay."

"We had a wonderful stay here. We loved the beautiful view from our balcony of the Clarence River and pelicans. We enjoyed fresh fish, prawns and chips from the Fisheries Co-op next door. The staff were so friendly. Our room was spacious and clean. We walked to the Sunset and Wine Bar for exactly that, beautiful and a 10 walk from accom. Coles supermarket a 12 minute walk or 2 minute drive away. Turners Beach, Whiting Beach and city centre all 5 minute drive. We had such a relaxing stay and plan to stay at Moby again.

8/10 Good
"The resort was very clean and staff very friendly, but when you are paying over $500 / night , I think the property needs modernising, new untenciles, air conditioning in all rooms, block out blinds, extra bin bags, a bin in the bathrooms, a fridge without rust spots on it. If you are travelling with a baby who has a pram be prepared to carry up all the steps as no ramps or lifts to your room. Overall we enjoyed our stay but the accommodation definitely needs a renovation for their furnishings."
