Top East Ballina Hotel Reviews

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"

The Cubana Ballina

10/10 Excellent

"A cool retro hotel close to the heart of Ballina. Room was super clean and very comfortable. It was nice to sit in the afternoon sun on the sunloungers on the grass...we did both afternoons with a glass of wine. The host suggested a French restaurant in the town centre which was also fantastic. The Wharf restaurant is also a must do We enjoyed our stay in Ballina. Only 1 suggestion....issue parking spots per room as it was annoying to come out of our room with cars so close to our door we could hardly get out."

Ballina Byron Islander Resort and Conference Centre

8/10 Good

"The room was clean quiet and well maintained. The only unusual thing is the bathroom setup. The basin sink is outside the bathroom in the entry area to the room. It was ok but a little different. Staff were very friendly and the light breakfast was very good."
