    Nothing - it exceeded all of our expectations.

    The building as a whole is so thought-through & they go above and beyond to ensure you’re comfortable & looked after. Mini-bar and snacks are actually delicious & complimentary, the room is beautifully curated & the upstairs room has additional food/drink/tea/coffee alongside games/books & an area to relax and mingle with others also which is complimentary

    I should have booked for longer!

    The hotel was immaculate, rooms were cosy and everything was comfortable. Everything was thought of: the mini bar, toiletries, scented rooms, towels, dining and activity recommendations, the rooftop pool area and dining area were also great features. Relatively central to town, nice and quiet, beautiful views. The staff were friendly and helpful.

    The room was beautifully kept & the roof top pool is dreamy!! On the other side of the roof level there is a kitchen: coffee machine, cookies & fruit/tea options with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating facing the ocean and headland. We had the space to ourselves most mornings and night so it was like our own private restaurant with a stunning sea breeze and sounds. They even have a Bluetooth speaker so you can play tunes while you enjoy dinner on the roof. Location is at the top of the hill- steep walk down to town centre. Great exercise! There is a cafe a few meters away, or walk down to the beach and another cafe is hiding below the surf club overlooking the ocean. We hired out the free e-bikes for a few hours- fun way to get around. Truly can’t wait to stay here again- it felt special.

    Parking a bit tight, elevator a bit slow but hey the rest of the place was brilliant! We were only there for one night so didn’t have a chance to enjoy the rooftop lounge and pool.

    Great spot, brilliant mid century style but modern amenities. The rooftop lounge and deck was lovely.

    Only downside for us was we only booked one night on our travels through. Will have to come back to stay longer in the warmer months.

    Loved everything about this property. Location is perfect right near the beach & also easy walk to restaurants & bars. The service was impeccable & loved the little things like the welcome note, complimentary mini bar drinks & food plus the coffee, fruit & biscuits in the rooftop area. Pool on the rooftop overlooking the beach is amazing plus if you go during the colder months there is a great inside viewing area where you can sit & enjoy the views over a coffee or wine with speaker to play your own tunes. A must stay if you are visiting Yamba!

    The amount of time it took for the hot water to come through.

    We loved the outstanding architecture, interior fitout, attention to detail and the pool and lounge sections. Everything has been very well thought through in designing and building this unique accommodation. Bedding and pillows were fabulous and the balcony.

    Only thing is I was confused why the yoga was on the same deck space as where the pool is so if you wanted a pre check out swim, you didn’t have anywhere to relax.

    Well appointed, modern, and great location.
