    Pros +

    • The then owners were very kind and drove us to and from the airport as part of the hotel booking.
    • Quiet and spacious
    • 25 min drive to Byron Bay

    Cons -

    • Location is walkable to the shopping centre, but not much round in Ballina apart from there. We were there for Splendour in the Grass.
    • The room had a few issues that affected comfort. The beds were sagging in the middle and not very comfortable. The fly screen had a hole, so we couldn’t open the window due to insects. Room cleaning was slow and felt rushed when it was finally done.
    • Woke up with bites all over me from bugs. My guess is that the bed had bedbugs

    Very helpful staff

    Booked in for two nights but the air conditioner wasn’t working and neither were half the PowerPoints in the room. The staff tried to get the a/c fixed then when that wasn’t possible, they bought us a fan.

    All was perfect for us. We have stayed in numerous motels in Ballina before, but the Ballina Homestead Motel exceeds them all. We will certainly be back with our pet. Very happy family It was great that the sports club was not too far away and we had a wonderful meal.

    There was nothing at all that we didn't like. We loved it.

    7VictoriaPosted on: 4-30-2025

    Bed was good. Good TV. Sports club nearby so easy to find a meal and a drink

    Acoustics between rooms not great, car spaces were tight.

    8GraemePosted on: 4-30-2025

    Room was neat and spacious with separate bedroom

    8RobPosted on: 4-27-2025

    Spacious rooms, good shower. No complaints. The chocolates at my door on Easter Sunday was a lovely gesture, thank you.

    9ElainePosted on: 4-22-2025

    Located near shops, bowls club and highway access, but lovely quiet location

    8TheresePosted on: 4-21-2025

    proximity for purpose of work travel and access to meals at the club and cafe on site.

    10ArriaPosted on: 4-21-2025

    Great location, wasn't bang in the middle of the main street and horribly busy, it was just back from everthing which made it nice and quiet. It is walking distance to dinner, shops and coffee. Everything you need is right there. Discountrd dinner at the local sports club was good. I am a female traveling alone with a large 4WD. Staff were friendly and helped me park my car, I also felt safe the entire time. Rooms were clean and comfortable with a good size TV. Coffee cup, bowls and cutlery all provided in the rooms. I hade a great stay, thanks.

    9StephaniePosted on: 4-16-2025

    The staff were very accommodating and helpful. Kid friendly. Great having the cafe on-site for breakfast too. Easy parking. Heaps of outdoor space to catch up with friends and family. Bonus discount at local Cherry Street Club for dinner ??

    Carpets are very worn, showers okay.

    9PaulPosted on: 4-15-2025

    Walking distance to town and river. Clean.

    10Ligia L.Posted on: 4-14-2025

    Very welcoming and accommodating to our specific needs. The studio was well equipped with full kitchenette and plenty of space for our dog to feel comfortable. Will definitely visit again!
