Although the room was clean, we thought is was extremely average & outdated in the decor for the price of $175 in a "budget" room for one night

Alan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The staff was really welcoming, friendly and helpful. Disappointed about the spa, thought it would be warm to relax and soak but it was as cold as the pool 😞

I paid for the location. I didn't enjoy the stay.
Haonan, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Two things I liked about the place is the friendliness of staff and the cleanliness of the tiny motel room we were given, room 4. But it is wrong for the property to advertise itself as a resort because it simply is an old and outdated motel. I don't want to be unfair, but I haven't been in a small old motel room like Room 4 for fifty years. We even had a blanket with a cigarette burn in it. Going to the toilet and then having to wash our hands in the kitchen sink isn't acceptable any longer. There isn't anywhere in the bathroom to place a toothbrush or razor. Overall I suggest the room we were given was simply mean. At least the front office staff looked a bit embarrassed when I got there and protested about our room, although there was no remedy offered. We were there for two nights only so we put up with it, but never again.
Stanley, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

I was promised an upgraded room. Didn’t get it. 3 phone calls to get an invoice sent to me, still have not received it.
John, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent accommodation, good check-in experience, easy access to “The Terrace Restaurant” from room. The grounds are well presented and provide a peaceful taste of the tropics. The restaurant was pleasant, the meal delightful and substantial. Did not like the “virtual mini-bar bar”. If it’s “order from room service”, then that is what it is, don’t dress it up! It looks like the host cannot trust people with the mini-bar and that means me as a guest, which I find insulting….. Whilst it was a bit cool on this occasion I like a swim before breakfast, the restricted pool hours would deny this to me, and likely many guests, who are not planning on early morning pool games. Other than these minor items we would recommend the Ballina Byron Islander Resort.
Jim, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

I’m sure we would have enjoyed staying here. However prior to our checkin we received an email from wotif stating that the conference centre had cancelled our booking and so we booked elsewhere. Then we received a ”how to checkin” email from the conf centre. When I contacted them to ask why we received this email when we had already received advice from wotif that they had cancelled our booking, they advised that wotif was known for cancelling bookings without the accommodations knowledge. Now wotif sends me this link to review the conf centre. So this is more a review of wotif - be wary!

2/10 Poor

we arrived a bit late night and next doors was made noise, door was opened and kids were talking all nights and watching TV and high volume. also knocking door and slum doors so many time. we couldn't sleep at all. also room wasnt cleaned enough, floors was dirty and we saw 3cockroches in the room that night. there was only 2left tissue paper in the box. we just wanted to say so disappointed it. they don't think about guests at all, feel so sorry for them.
