- Guest (8/5): -
- Kayla (10/5): - Convenient location, easy late check-in and early check-out process, tidy space and easy patking.
- laura (8/5): -
- lesley (7/5): Comfy, quiet value for money - Narimba Motel is an older facility, comfy, very quiet, and a little bit out of town. Check in procedure was straightforward and the room was set up to enable self catering for breakfast. It was inexpensive so good value on an expensive Raster weekend.
- E van Workum (9/5): - We have stayed here a few times, always good, perfect location
- Amanda (7/5): Basic accommodation for a fair price. - Good location. Basic accommodation. Provided all essentials. Being a pet friendly hotel also meant sleeping next to a room with a barking dog. I didn't see any staff on-site during my stay, with a key pick-up and drop-off only.
- Bryan (5/5): - Noise from conversations from lodging behind carport right outside rear windoow Unit 3
- katy mccormack (10/5): -
- Angela (4/5): - verandah, dog friendly room deodorizer, very small space, seating only on verandah
- Cassandra (7/5): -
- Robin (10/5): Quiet and comfortable - Narimba is no-frills but clean, comfortable and good value for money. I travel with my dog, and the location is great - there's a good park just down the road and the motel is out of the way and quiet.
- Little (8/5): Small hotel, quiet location, nice walk down to the river - Access to key well organised. Instructions clear on room access and parking. No hassles
- Angela (7/5): - Was quiet, away from the main road. The room was clean. Bathroom was good. Room was tiny and cramped so no bedside tables. I had to put my cpap machine on the floor. The side of the bed was only about 40cm from the cupboards and fridge.
- Peter (8/5): -
- Janine (10/5): -
- Janine (10/5): Excellent stay as always! - Location, security Nothing
- William (9/5): Enjoyable, would definitely book again. - Room was very clean and tidy well equiped and comfortable, bonus of a good size tv including Foxtel. The room had no sink plug which made it a little difficult as I wet shave.
- Janette (3/5): Wouldn’t stay there again didn’t even see anyone even after a phone call staying she would be there in a couple of minut - Not much The stairs are wooden old and very slippery with no hand rails on main stairs
- ann (10/5): - Fantastic place to stay. We have two dogs. The accommodation was perfect. 🐶🐶
Thank you so much🐶🐶🐾🐾
- Melissa (9/5): Relaxing time away with mum and our dogs - Room was clean, location close to my sisters, had a park across the road to take the dogs & safe were very friendly.
- Escribano (7/5): Comfortable - Very clean and the location was great. No power points for the kettle in adequate place.
- Penny (9/5): - The size of the main room, dog friendly, great value for money I found the bathroom to be very narrow but I am a bigger person so this may not be a problem for others.
- Christy (8/5): Great stay! - Great location and comfy bed
- Tim (10/5): Great hide away spot, pet friendly! - Friendly staff perfect little room great parking

- william (8/5): Nice Motel in MacQuarie - Nice Motel close to the Car Ferry. Nice quiet area. The small, clean room had all you need for a short stay. Did n't see the Staff running the Motel. Instructions how to access the room were sent by email. Unfortunately, I did n't have access to email when we arrived. I was lucky that another Guest happened to arrive shortly after me and allowed me access to the box holding the Key and instructions to the room.
- SP (8/5): -
- Karen (8/5): -
- Takako (10/5): Very efficient services. Ground Coffee is very kind service. Thank you 😊 - Grate quiet location and dog friendly. N/A
- Escribano (10/5): Comfortable - Firstly the hospitality from the staff, (Lisa) was exceptional. She was always ready to help and nothing was too much. She was very friendly and accommodating. Hidden extra cleaning costs
- Ian (10/5): Best 1/2 way stopover Bris 2 Syd - Multiple likes, location, size, cleanliness, parking, price, staff. That they're not in QLD 😉
- Harry (8/5): Relaxing, convenient to airport. - Very helpful friendly staff Too many cockroaches
- Oren (8/5): Great - What you see is what you get Toilet area was too small
- Peter (8/5): -
- Michael (8/5): -
- Walter (6/5): Great motel. - I’ve stayed there a number of times I’ve always found it value for money and excellent service from the staff
- Tina (10/5): Excellent. Quiet. Peaceful. Affordable - The room was clean, tidy and welcoming.
There's only 7 rooms, so it was very quiet. Surrounded by trees, the river was very close by. Id definitely stay again when I travel back down to Port. Lisa was warm, friendly and very approachable. Bed was a tad hard. But some people like that. Definitely can't please everyone.
- Vicki (9/5): Enjoyable peaceful stay - Clean, quiet and comfy Nothing
- Tamarin (9/5): -
- KMT (10/5): Great location - I stay here twice a year on my way from Victoria to QLD, excellent location, great pet friendly and bonus park across the road...not too far from the pet friendly beach..great restaurants close by..
- John (9/5): Good value. - Price and comfort. Facilities. Shower small toilet space cramped, but completely usable.
- Laura (9/5): Cute place, friendly staff and pet friendly - Such a cute motel. Rooms are well equipped, bed is comfortable and they are pet friendly.
- Mark (8/5): - Convenient Pretty small
- Julie (7/5): Over night stay - Quiet location and complimentary snacks were a Nice touch Door was very difficult to lock
- Nawshin (8/5): -
- Tayla Ruby (4/5): -
- Maria (7/5): - Ease of checking in and out. Information sheet from owners.
Quiet The size of the room was sufficient for one night if longer would feel closed in.
- Horan (10/5): Easy, convenient, private, safe, clean... THANK YOU - Easy, clean, pet friendly (truly). Lots of "pet friendly" motels make you feel like you need to apologise for having a pet with you. At Narimba, they are TRULY pet friendly. It is never a problem to have your dog with you. They don't make a huge song and dance about it. They welcome you and you actually FEEL welcomed. The handwritten envelopes with the keys are a true delight and the rooms are always neat, clean, and cosy. Bathroom was spotless. Snacks are a nice little treat! Love the decking. Perfect spot. This is my 3rd time staying, it is an absolute no-brainer. Can't wait for my 4th stay! Literally nothing. Everything was perfect.
- Michael (7/5): perfect for a quick overnighter - just the basics. Appropriately priced. Nice and clean the perfumes for cleaning are overpowering
- Amy (8/5): -
- Paul (10/5): -
- Vicki (8/5): Nice place, clean and tidy and has everything you need for a overnight stay. - The room was exactly what we needed. We were travelling to Coffs Harbour and used the stay as just a stopover on the way. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable and we could park right outside our room. The staff were lovely and we were close to the freeway. The location was literally a few short steps from the water's edge. Lovely overlook. Very happy with our stay. They even left a few snacks on the table for us if we were hungry. What more could you ask for. Nothing the stay was excellent.
- Leigh (8/5): -
- Carl (9/5): Great Stay - For a pet friendly stay it really was great. Lady who runs the motel was lovely and helpful.
- Sarah (10/5): - Extremely clean and really lovely staff Nothing
- Ian (7/5): - ideal for night stopover. close to town,
- Kathryn (10/5): Convenient and comfortable. - Location was perfect for our visit to Port Macquarie.
The staff were very kind in giving us a late check out, without prior arrangement.
Will absolutely stay again.
- Andrew (10/5): -
- Tanya (4/5): not clean, too noisy, won't be back - location was ok the glasses in the bathroom were filthy (full of toothpaste scum) and the shower was not clean

- Katie (10/5): -
- Bob (8/5): -
- Raymond (9/5): -
- Samantha (1/5): Don’t stay here - Towels and bed linen smelt of animals. Door hardly opened/closed and wouldn’t lock. Bathroom was filthy.
- Mandy (9/5): -
- Tomer (8/5): -
- Christine (10/5): It was a wonderful place to stay - Pets allowed Pets not allowed in bed
- Max (6/5): -
- Holly (10/5): Great spot for a short stay! - Quiet location, close to everything, comfy beds and pillows. We had everything we needed for our short stay. Parking right out the front of the room and super friendly staff!
- simone (7/5): Good - Great when travelling with pets staff very helpful Property was fit for purpose
- Lynda (7/5): - Location, snacks, coffee, size was ok. Shower needs regrouting, mould clean. Paper thin walls, no privacy in room. Otherwise all good.
- Kim Lourens (7/5): - Cutlery, crockery etc. Water views were not as expected, the walk down was not great, not much there. Its very small
- Tony (8/5): Great place for a stop over to discover the town - Warm and welcoming place, room was clean and met the expectation None
- Natasha (8/5): -
- Debi (8/5): - Very clean, comfortable bed, descent linen and pillows Shower door broken, no Foxtel as advertised
- owen (2/5): We checked out a few hours after checking in. - External Appearance, Car ferry nearby.
Complementary snacks.
Helpful although absent staff.
Parking was good.
Quiet location.
If you are traveling with a pet this may be a great place to stay as the place is unabashedly pet friendly. Room cleanliness (sediment found on bed covers, Firbers on floor, lamps covered in dust)
Room condition (a lot of ware and tear (suspected from pet damage))
Didnt like the used dishes "basket solution"
Didnt like the lack of kitchen sink
Didnt like the lingering pet smell despite having the door open for hours.
Didnt like the appearance behind the frosted bathroom window (looked very unclean)
Didnt like sitting in the room thinking about sleeping in the car we arrived in.
Pets are welcome and the room smells like wet dog I dont think it is fair to assume the conditions would be what they were. Maybe others with pets are used to these conditions however after our experience we will be avoiding all pet welcome places in the future.
- Gerry (5/5): Bit out of town, too far to walk in. Limited dining options - A clean comfortable bed for the night heading south towards Sydney Very small. Basic, but not big surprise
- Larry (5/5): -
- Ann (8/5): Clean comfortable great location - Easy access and parking clear instructions for self check in brilliant location right next to river and jetty
- Stephanie (7/5): -
- Todiee (10/5): Lovely stay at Narimba motel - Loved the cleanliness and the bedding smelt so good and fresh. For a motel this was by far the best in terms of cleanliness. The location was also beautiful. Nice and quiet. The check in and out was very easy and clearly communicated via text. The timing of the text was also perfect for us to retrieve the code for the safe to get our keys. The aircon was amazing too. Our toddler loved it too because for the first time she managed to sleep on her own in her bed. She seemed to love the single bed as she could still be in the same room as us and have her own bed. Can't really fault anything.
