Excellent location

Virtually on The Strand, just past the amazing Bayan trees. Spacious room, good shower, with extra touches : crockery and cutlery, and a microwave oven. Our room was up some steep stairs, but there are other, less precipitous rooms too.

Yongala Lodge Motel On The Strand

I had gone away with my family and enjoyed it. I'm just not too sure if someone other than myself had entered the room while I had gone out for the day. Other than that staff were very hospitable and friendly and were extremely happy to help when needed so I thank them and I'll love to return back. Also pet friendly my dog was extremely happy during her stay also.

Staff were very friendly and helpful in every way. Lovely room and appointments. If I were to be picky - a boutique venue might be expected to have quality tea and coffee. The little things do get noticed and compared by travellers. An enjoyable break in a community conscious town. -Robert

It is very closely located to the Strand, which is great if thats what you ate after. On the downside it is expensive for what you get though.
