Glamping is the most comfortable and fun way to go. The facilities at the resort were amazing and my dog just loved our stay.
Will definitely be back 👍

Very clean room, keyless entry, very wide parking place right in front of the room. A big shopping center is two blocks away.

Quiet location away from main roads. Comfy bed. Clean and tidy. Cabin had what I needed and everything was in good working order. Good shower. Appreciated the manager/owner('s?) flexibility in tending to my request to extend my stay after the office closed for the day at 5:00pm.

We love the shopping, dolphins in the river and ocean, river, and ocean views, and whales spotting from the lookout and river when in season.
We dined at Cherry St Sporties where the meals and cocktails were great value and delicious.
We also ate at Taco Bell.

Recommend you pass by, try a different town. Arrived after 18.00 to find all reception offices closed in almost all hotels. only telephone and internet contact . 30 minutes standing in the rain at the last hotel trying to get the key that was in a lockbox. Ended up in a kitchen / passageway with a bed no locks on the doors.

From our hotel it was easy walking distance to a supermarket and shops and it was all flat - no hills. The RSL was a slightly longer walk but very pleasant on the board walk. The Ramada's restaurant was still undergoing restoration after the floods so we look forward to trying it on our next visit.

Homeless at the front door and shopping trolleys full of soaked belongings.
A parade of bogans loitering around the hotel street and lawns.
A perfect view of a river system dotted with pelicans and dolphins, seemingly trained to appear as the guest arrives.
A very very busy town centre with a Main Street way past its use by date, impatient drivers rivalling the hectic streets of Rome or Beijing, trying to avoid the many elderly on their motorised scooters.
A WIDE variety of every food and drink you could search for with an incredibly high standard of cleanliness at each cafe and bakery and eatery.
Several thrift shops, boutiques and clothing stores catering for most if not all budgets and tastes.
Unsafe for cycling in the sense that many European cities opt for with vehicle of choice mainly being oversized gas guzzling 4WD s.
A tapestry of humans from many walks, a bouquet of widely sourced characters to fill River Street and a pace of somewhat crazed rush just prior to Christmas.
The entire location can be enveloped in mist, a moment later sunshine followed by an afternoon storm, to a traveller, the most perfect combination of sea and river breezes with the warmth of a temperate day and no humidity.
Casting aside or happy to accept the redneck hicks and drugged out locals that represent a minor percentage of those encounter, the town thrives on a balance of visiting Australian holiday makers and a sprinkling of mainly European and South American tourists. No swarms of Asians like Pitt Street mall or tribes of Ethiopians drifting along Todd Mall.
Seemly untouched by the suffocating First Nation retoric, there is an acceptable streamlined understanding of accepting all as they come.

Ballina is one of our favourite short stay locations-2 hours from home. Great town with amenities. Beaches, the river stretching along the main street, whales and dolphins can be viewed from cliffs just outside town, friendly people and great golf course with excellent Asian restaurant.
We have also holidayed here in the past-highly recommended!
This was my third time staying at Ballina Palms and I hope it won’t be the last. The rooms are sensational with little features added to them. Andre and the team are great with attention to detail. Whenever I needed something either Andre or Sebastian were so quick to help. Wifi worked well. It’s close walk to the river and the ideal location. I was here for both work and holiday and it worked a treat for me. There’s a pool and seating area if people want to lounge around the motel. There’s a washer and dryer for a very small fee.
The view and the layout of the units. We had 11 people staying in the 2 x 3 bedroom apartments and 2 x 2 bedroom apartments and everyone was very comfortable. We came up to Ballina to participate in a state bowls competition and were very satisfied with our accommodation.
Staff were very friendly. Our room was comfortable and clean. River view room has a lovely view. The hotel was close to some good destinations to check out while visiting Ballina
