Lovely.

The place is fantastic, absolutely beautiful. Great location. The owner is also a wonderful man, we had an issue with the "per friendly" part however. I booked a pet friendly room, then upon arrival was told thats not the case. Then the place was so nice we could not relax with the dog, feom fear of a hair falling somewhere. Then on checkout was told the room was dirty which is dissapoimting considering we are clean freaks. I would highly reccomemd stayunh here although not with a pet

Our suite (Clarence)was beautiful and functional with absolutely no view of the ocean. We could go to the common room upstairs which had a delightful view. The building is clean with a nice aesthetic. We never saw any staff our entire time there. The reception was closed when we arrived(they had arranged entry via text). No one was around when we left. Nice but not quite worth what we were charged.

Definitely worth booking! The service is great and the location couldn’t be better. The electric bikes make it easy to get to the shops or light house and explore Yamba. The best part of the stay was the roof top pool.

Loved Yamba!

Loved this place and the location! We stayed here overnight on a trip up the coast. The room was spacious and clean with an outside balcony and great view of the ocean. Great amenities with the stocked refrigerator in the room and pool and coffee bar on the roof. Yamba is fantastic - would love to come back again one day.
