Absolutely amazing! We had been travelling back from an extremely stressful stay in NSW and had been on the road for 10hrs! By the time we got to Ballina we were mentally, physically and emotionally spent! When I walked into the inviting fresh and clean reception area I was greeted by two very caring people :-).

My partner and I just spent 3 days here. Great place, Tina and John friendly hosts. The room was clean and the bed very comfortable, quiet at night.

We were a few days into our plannned 'beach crawl' on the NSW North Coast when the sun went down, we needed some digs, and stumbled into the Ballina Island Motor Inn.

It may not be the closest place to town but its the most reasonably priced place in Ballina. If you want good service, friendly staff and the best food to boot then this is your place! It's a must stay. Avoid the Ramada and their perky overpriced rooms and stay here where you get value for money cause lets face... More

Our stay at this motel was only a brief stop over en route. It was 5 mins from the pacific H/way, great for tired travelers. The owners were friendly and welcoming, fantastic in fact. Their manner was efficient and applaudable. Our room was clean and comfortable with ample room. We will definitely pass on to friends and colleagues our experience... More

We stayed here whilst attending the Bluesfest at Byron Bay. The staff were very accommodating and the restaurant served wonderful oysters! Also the free wifi was a bonus. For walking into town purposes it is a little far, but no problem if you have transport.
