Fantastic time in Yamba, great place to stay on balance.
Pros:

Amazing location, very clean on arrival.

Cons:

No aircon in second bedroom, made the kids stay harder as it got too hot with the door closed. We had to keep the door open and living room aircon on, but then you have to keep the noise down.
Also, stupid triple sheeting on all the beds. Lasts 5 seconds, especially for our 4 year old, then the doona is exposed and that’s not hygienic. Bring back proper doona covers.

The unit was in a good location and nice pool & garden.
Pros:

The location, basement carpark,the pool & gardens and receptionist.

Cons:

The unit was missing essentials to make our breakfast such as sharp knife & chopping board to cut fruit & crusty loaf of bread. Not enough tea & sugar for 2 guests. The screens on the windows were dirty and being allergic to dust made me uncomfortable.

Boxy motel room
Pros:

Location right near the beach

Cons:

Motel Room with garden view
Felt like a box, lack of privacy.
Unable to have an open window during the day because of noise or at night due to security and lighting shining into room.

I would actually come back to stay as we had a great view. But a bit of elbow work to clean the dust and dirt would be a
Pros:

Loved the location, pool was good. Lighting in stairway could be better

Cons:

Very tight car spaces. Had few cockroaches running around and a gecko put outside.
Curtains were dirty, dusty air cons, bed lamp had dust hanging off it. The cushions on the lounges were squashed as left from last tenants. Ok I poofed them up.
