Guest Reviews
- Nathan (9/5): -
- Lauren (10/5): -
- Jennifer (8/5): Highly recommend - Great place, bright and cheery as were the staff. Nice outlook, comfy bed and pillows Nothing to mention
- Amanda (9/5): - Clean and comfortable room, very comfy bed and couch, spacious room.
Bathroom was a little dated, but not an issue for us.
- Natalie (10/5): -
- Natalie (10/5): -
- Sonya (8/5): We pick there because of the restaurant and the food was surprisingly good. Chef can cook. - The restaurant and bar Tired, outside light did not work. Rooms echoed needs a rug on floor to stop that. Better coffee facilities.
- Wanda and Craig (9/5): Upon arrival we were greeted and made very welcome immediately. Great welcoming break away. - Everything from beginning to end.
Very friendly host, always available and accommodating. All good and happy with everything
- Sally (10/5): -
- jeremy (10/5): -
- Gaybrielle (9/5): Quiet and well priced accommodation option when travelling - Convenient for an overnight stay while travelling. The Cubana is a quiet place to stay only a few minutes from the highway. Close to Nambucca Heads RSL when the Cubana Mexican restaurant is closed on a Monday. Very quick check in.
- Amanda (7/5): Colourful and calm - The lake is nice and they have made an effort with the styling. You can ride alongside the lake off-road into the town beach from this location. The pool spa jets were not working, scheduled to be fixed. You can hear the neighbours TV through the walls if they are inconsiderate and have it too loud.
- Chris (9/5): very good - Size and layout was different but excellent Soap dispensers in Shower were diffecult to use
- Sue (8/5): -
- Louise (8/5): -
- Napier (7/5): - Relatively affordable Quiet Mouldy smell in dining area
- David (8/5): -
- Bethan (8/5): - Stopped here overnight whilst driving up the coast from Sydney. Nice and quiet, parking directly outside the room. They have a spa and restaurant on site!
- William (9/5): Quiet and good value. Great location - Location, set in a very quiet area but also a very short drive to the highway. The staff were really kind and relaxed. The pool and spa were clean and that made the kids happy. Close to a supermarket and petrol station. The bathroom and room lighting are a bit dated and could use an update.
- James (9/5): -
- Mia (8/5): - I love the service they give to the guests. Not so much the stay is the area where the shops are quiet small.
- anthony (3/5): Have you ever pulled back your sheets to jump into bed and found faeces and semen on the sheets ? - Location Uncleanliness
- Deborah (9/5): Loved our overnight stay. Had a lovely meal in the restaurant following the ‘happy hour’. We could only stay one night - Staff were brilliant. Check in was easy. Room was good. Unfortunately, there is a microwave but no toaster or knife to butter bread. If leaving before breakfast it would be handy.
- Rachel (8/5): - Clean and tidy and dog friendly :)
- pearson (10/5): -
- Natalie (7/5): -
- Kim (10/5): - Great venue and at a great value for a price. Located at a great location as well.
- lisa (8/5): Peaceful surroundings and friendly and helpful staff . - Conveniently located, bright and cheerful environment. Water puddles sitting in car spaces.
- Don (8/5): -
- Tyron (10/5): Stop over - Perfect little place Nothing
- Matilda (10/5): -
- Cheryl (10/5): Only stayed one night but we were very happy with our room and service. - Convenient to highway and Nambucca heads Nothing
- Janice (8/5): Loved the accomodation very comfortable - The staff, the location very comfortable stay and the bar The restaurant food wasn’t the best and price
- JT (10/5): -
- Kat (9/5): -
- Vitalii (6/5): - The room was nicely renovated and looked as on the pictures. The bathroom, although not renovated was clean and functional. Easy and fast check in and check out. Complete lack of soundproofing. You can hear everything: your neighbours running their cars, people talking, birds being loud early in the morning. We got interconnected room and could hear our neighbors as if they were in our room, and I'm sure they felt the same.
- Katy (6/5): - The bed and room was great. Great hot shower, close to walks, clean room. Spa hot. Quiet location, slept well. Spa wasn't working, so mainly was a bath. No cutlery so had to buy some just to eat something in the room
- PixsellTravels (9/5): Always a Great Stay! - The Cubana is always a great stay!
The Queen room is spacious clean and comfy and the resort facilities are excellent - Pool, spa, lush gardens and lake, and an onsite restaurant.
We dined at the Cubana Cantina one night and enjoyed the food and service very much. The garden area outside our room was a little overgrown and there were weeds growing up through the pavers. We have not experienced this before, so hopefully it's a one off. Otherwise our stay was perfect
- Alanna (5/5): - Location was good for a stop along highway Booked as 1 night stay for a stop in travels, booked hotel with restaurant in it for convenience. Arrived and went to have dinner to be told they had a bus load coming in and chef's were only preparing their food. If we wanted to eat there we were told to go back in 2.5 hours. After travelling all day last thing we wanted to do was leave and try to find dinner elsewhere
- John (10/5): -
- Lauren (8/5): Nice room, outskirts of town - Room was a good size, comfortable and edgy. A little tired. Great facilities - Pool, Spa and Steam Room. Was unfortunate the restaurant wasn't open on a Sunday night and therefore made it a little tricky to get around Nambucca if you wanted to enjoy a beverage with dinner. Outskirts of town. It was unfortunate the restaurant wasn't open on a Sunday night and therefore made it a little tricky to get around Nambucca if you wanted to enjoy a beverage with dinner.
- Joanne (5/5): average - the exterior was fun down, the surrounds were over green with weeds, needed mowing
- Joy (9/5): - Spacious, airy, funky. Liked how it was around the garden in the middle and the restaurant was also looking out onto this same area. Staff accommodating for late arrival and dinner. It was a quick one night stay but everything was easy
- Geoghegan (10/5): -
- Sebastian (9/5): -
- Julie (8/5): -
- Kylie (10/5): The coolest place to stay - Such a great place, lovely staff , great amenities, the colours and decor are so nice 😍 such a cool place to stay. Can't wait for my next visit! Highly recommend if you are looking to just sit back and relax . This place has everything you need. Great food and the sauna and spa👌🏻 🍸🍷 I loved everything !
- james (8/5): -
- Michelle (7/5): - Large, comfortable room, able to park car at door and had rear lockable door to access pool and restaurant area.
Steam room was great, spa was not functioning but warm to sit in.
Across the road from the info centre and boardwalk along the river. The restaurant was a bit of a let down. Was excited for the Mexican food and margaritas.
The tacos were average and no margaritas despite the large margarita menu due to having no Tequila 😞 on a Friday at 6pm.
- Tim (4/5): -
- Elizabeth (7/5): -
- Williams (7/5): The owner responded quickly to fix concerns, amazing view and location. - Great location. A good response to cleanliness concerns. It had some cleanliness issues when we arrived. It needed a good clean and it was just basics like fridge, windows, bathroom and a lot of dust.
- VIRGINIA (8/5): - Location N/A
- Iqra (7/5): Overall good stay! - The room size and king bed size! Room opened to the beautiful pond Some rooms seemed a bit old, the towel handle was broken. No microwave or cutlery in the room. No hot breakfast on premises which I would expect if something is marketed as a resort.
- Graeme (9/5): - Central location
- Keira (10/5): - The Reception could not have been more welcoming or helpful. Great for the bike hire and a ride down to the beach.
- Clare (10/5): -
- Mark (7/5): - Nice, big, clean rooms. The bed was very comfortable and there was air-conditioning. The shower was a bit tricky to get the temperature right. Pressure was okay.
- Rebecca (10/5): Comfortable, affordable and friendly - We've stayed at the Cubana a few times. The rooms are beautiful, clean and comfortable. The facilities are great. The staff are very friendly and helpful.
- Kylie (9/5): - Staff were helpful and accommodation was what we needed for our staff and close to site.
- Janniene (8/5): Overall good except very high price - felt a bit ripped off - Very clean. Lovely large room The shelf near the TV - be careful -
Hit my head badly
- Phillip (6/5): -
- Raylee (9/5): -
- Lauren (10/5): -
- Cathy (6/5): OK for an overnight stay - Location is quite good, close to main road. The room was big. Dog friendly. They provided an extra sheet to cover the sofa. Restaurant on-site. The only sink was just outside the bathroom with the kettle and microwave. There were mugs provided, but no other crockery or any cutlery. We had a balcony, but there were far too many old leaves and dirt out there to use it. There were block out curtains, but so much of the backing had come off that they looked grotty. We ate at the restaurant there. The food was nice. The waiter was unsure about our table that we had reserved, so we sat at an undressed old weathered outside table.
- Anthony (9/5): Clean comfortable. - Conveniently situated for the town and river. Nothing.
- Johnston (10/5): -
- Sharni (10/5): -
- Pezakeza (10/5): - Large rooms, comfy bed, good shower & value for money. Nothing
- Maddison (8/5): -
- Lorraine (6/5): reasonable but not exceptional. - Poor house Keeping on Sunday. Do not accept cash.
- Alexandra (8/5): - Nice resort type facilities, spacious rooms and green well maintained area. Highly recommend for those who travel with pets. The lights and switches could be improved.
- Caroline (9/5): -
- Cy (6/5): Overall satisfactory but not worthy of 4 stars - Nice big room. Comfy bed. Big clean shower Spa wasn't working while i was there. Steam room needs attention.
No cultery or plates in rooms.
Shower pressure wasn't even between taps. Tineist bit of hot but then needed lots if cold to get to good temp.
Continental breakfast was $15 for 3 slices of toast. Also wasn't made clear it wasn't included in room cost
- Paul (10/5): Stayed for one night in family room with pet . Instantly could see that it was spotlessly clean and fresh. - It was a very pretty environment. Lovely gardens to walk around with our dog. N A
- Jessica (8/5): Good value for money - Love the comfy bed and pillows!
Parking outside rooms in handy for packing up car (apart from when others park in your spot and you need to park elsewhere)
Pool was nice and warm The bathroom hadn’t been renovated so very old school with cracked tiles etc
Location is a little far from the main town area but only a short drive
- John Eustace (8/5): -
- Heather (6/5): -
- Sandy (10/5): -
- Angie (7/5): -
- Paul (5/5): Disappointing - Spacious rooms Stained furniture
Early restaurant closure (last orders for drinks or food 8:30pm)
No facilities for residents open after 9:00om
Limited restaurant menu
Breakfast looked dreadful (I didn’t have it)
- Eyyup (1/5): - Building and furniture is very old and the room was very smelly. couldn't handled to stay.
- Sophie (6/5): - Large room comfy bed. No microwave.
- Patricia (7/5): -
- Alice (9/5): -
- Shizuko (9/5): We like the location and spacious room. We will come back ! - Spacious. We liked the big shelf by the bath room. It is not cleaner’s fault but we found a cockroache. I think they come in as the room is on the ground floor. If there was a spray it would have been easier for us to get rid of it.
- Olga (8/5): -
- Emilie (3/5): - Stayed there lots of times as central Sweat stains on the couch and a blocked toilet, plus power outage all night the first trip through.
- Raj (10/5): - The room was spacious n beautuful backyard Nil
- julie (9/5): -
- Gill (7/5): -
- Howard (8/5): -
- Ros (10/5): Peaceful and comfortable - A little oasis on the edge of the town with great facilities of bar and restaurant if we just wanted to stay there in the evening. Our room had a patio area overlooking the lily pond and loved the Lace Monitors running around the garden .
- Loren (10/5): We loved our quick stay here, the room was decorated nicely. Staff were friendly - Our room was clean and tidy, decorated nicely and comfortable beds. Staff are very friendly. On arrival the receptionist told me breakfast was $15 per adult only, when we arrived for breakfast both our children were charged $15 each too.
- clare (10/5): Great hotel - Loved this property, great facilities, great location Everything was great
- Barry (9/5): Good value for a short stay - More away from the main town and beaches than we expected.
Good value, friendly staff. Leafy environment.
- Jacqueline (10/5): It was fabulous absolutely loved it - It was stunning Nothing
- Lisa (10/5): -
- Deanne (9/5): Serene surrounds - Cubana staff were friendly and extremely helpful from the moment we arrived. The place is cheerful with wonderful gardens.
The room was very clean and very comfortable.
The rooms have private small outdoor areas that were wonderful to sit and have a morning coffee taking in the serenity of the grounds listening to the birdsong..
Loved watching the ducks and lizards. It is near a main road but in saying this the noise was minimal outside and. Once the room doors were shut you couldn't hear it at all.
- reinhold (10/5): Relaxing - Dog friendly staff friendly huge modern clean room great Mexican restaurant
