What guests think

At Beach House Motel, reviewers consistently praise the beachfront Strand location and friendly, helpful staff, while feedback on the rooms and facilities is more mixed, noting both renovated, comfortable spaces and areas that feel dated or basic.

Rooms are frequently described as very clean and comfortable, though lighting, size, layout and mattress comfort vary between units. Facilities are simple, with a very small pool, stairs instead of a lift, and on-site parking that can be tight. Some guests reported street or fellow-guest noise at times. Expect a straightforward, beachside budget stay with easy access to The Strand’s dining and walks.

The pictures on the site are misleading. There are probably some units that are More updated than others. I got one that definitely did not match the pictures with very old fashioned. It is partially remodeled but the remodelling has been done hastily and with a very low budget. Old fixtures have been painted over. The lighting is horrible, like in a hospital. On the plus side, perfect location and convenient parking. Also it was clean. It’s passable for a one night stay

We stayed for 6 nights at this motel. The location was good - right on the Strand and close to food and a supermarket. The room was nice and large for a studio. Beds were comfy and air conditioning was effective. Large, well-pressured shower. Towels changed daily. Kitchen was sufficient with a large fridge and lots of cooking utensils; however, no oven. The renovated rooms do look lovely and modern and have a very clean feeling. Now to the negatives: We asked if they had a high chair to borrow but unfortunately not. This would have made our stay easier and more comfortable. The pool was very chilly for swimming (in December!) but worse than that was that the owners or hosts apartment looked directly into the pool. We went to test the waters once to look up and see straight into their living room, Christmas tree and all, no curtains. This was quite a creepy feeling for us, and I couldn’t convince my teenage daughter to swim after that. We also noted that most other people only stayed for a night or two, suggesting that this place is more of a brief stayover than a holiday destination. However, we mostly had a good stay and would recommend this motel to others for short stays.

Good position on The Strand. Older style building with only access to 1st floor by 2 flights of stairs. Nice that we got clean towels daily, bedding was ok but not super comfortable, I do suffer from back problems.

The room was clean however ‘fully renovated was a stretch’. Bathroom was pretty scruffy, old shower head, ceiling was not newly painted, stained, door was old. Entry door had no door handle! If the motel is advertising fully renovated then a little more effort required.

Absolutely amazing staff from check in to check out, lovely lady on desk when I called for early check in and when we arrived let us check in early as knew we had so much baggage and said we could use facilities until room was ready. , the guy later sorry can’t remember your name was awesome too, we had a problem with the microwave and air con and he was so helpful and asked us to change rooms , we had originally booked air bnb from 24th- 29th February that was disgusting after arriving in Australia after relocating from New Zealand , I was not prepared to stay there so had to book another motel for the two nights 24th- 26th and one night 26th-27th here until we picked our keys up for our new rental home. wish we had booked three nights as it was great. Thanks again would definitely recommend . The cross family room 25 and 15

Loved the location, the closeness to the water, shops, gardens, cafes and museums. Everything was walking distance with buses close by if you want to go further. Regardless of the benefits of the location, our room was quite at night. The place was well presented and the staff great communicators and helpful in all ways. Will be giving them a call next time I'm up that way.
