Iv stayed in a lot of so called 5star hotels around the world and to be honest they could learn a lot from the Hotel Marvell. Needed an early check in due to a last minute online business meeting . I called the hotel . The staff were so accommodating. Throughout the stay all the staff were so friendly and Helpful.welcome drink dropped to room after arrival . Room was cleaned daily(twice) food was fresh and delicious. Asked for a late check out again no problem. There was no rushing me out the door to get the next customer in. All in all if I could give a 6 star rating I would.

We stayed in a cabin, which had a kitchen, lounge, dining area and one double bedroom, with an ensuite. Everything was very spacious and light filled. The bathroom was a great size, with a very large shower and plenty of hot water. The bedroom was also a great size, had a tv, fan and big wardrobe, with shelving and hangers, an ironing board and an iron. The kitchen is very well equipped and has a fridge/freezer, microwave and cooktop. Good bench space, with a toaster and jug. Lots of drawers, cupboards and there is a good selection of crockery, cutlery and pots. Dining table, another Tv, aircon, fan and a lounge suite. Parking beside the cabin as well. The owners are lovely and recommended drives to us (the weather wasn't great), with suggestions off the normal tourist track. There are walks from the park to the surf beach and the quieter beach. There was a coffee van, a swimming pool which can be accessed, playgrounds and a big park. Lots of facilities for campers and caravaners. The park is full of trees, so very shady too. We found it very quiet and peaceful. Very short walk to the town centre with a great choice of cafes, bakeries, restaurants and clubs and pubs. We would definitely return here.

We stayed over night driving from Sydney to Gold Coast. Stayed in a cabin right next to the water and the path lead to a waterfront restaurant. The facilities were close to cabin - dry/wash clothes. Didn't have time to use the pool but looked nice and clean. (2 min walk from cabin).

The accommodation is not what we expected.

The accommodation is not what we expected. It needed work, cleaning and was very noisy with the trucks along the highway using their brakes. The shower curtain was moldy, shampoo, condition & soap dispenser had fallen off wall and left on ground. Freezer was dirty, glasses needed to washed & wiped of grime before using. Air-condition in room did not work. Images of room didn't match what the room looked like it was older with dodgy renovation patches. We got room service from the restaurant that incurred a & $10 fee. The meal of simple chicken burgers was inedible due to the excessive amount of sauce which even after wipe off with serviettes could not be eaten. On check out we took the meals & advised management. They apologized and said would follow up. No follow up .. disappointing. Do not stay or eat at this motel.

Byron Bay has a stunning white sand beach where the sand makes a soft, even sound under your feet as you walk. There are lots of surfers and swimmers, creating a lively but relaxed atmosphere. The walk to the lighthouse is beautiful, with amazing coastal views along the way and we even spotted dolphins along the way. The nearby shops and restaurants are lovely and add to the overall charm. A perfect place to relax and enjoy the coast.”

Typical sea town with a good choice of restaurants , beaches and cafes. There is koala center and zoo in the area plus the rainforest park (Sea acres) which is easy walk. Nothing spectacular but people are trying to preserve nature. Plus the little gardens (Mrs York’s).

Relaxed vibe with lots of great cafes and shopping options. Close to Lighthouse Beach (Lifeguard patrolled), Shaws Bay and the river. Great flat walking paths along river. Farmers Markets every Sunday morning. Lennox Head township with Tea Tree Lake (for swimming) only 15 minutes drive. Byron Bay approximately 30 minutes drive. The hinterland is stunning with some waterfalls and swimming holes. We often come to Ballina for a weekend away and will be returning.
