What a fantastic place and great value. When this popped up I thought "that looks different". Almost new, presumably installed this season, the swag tents are luxurious, very comfy, come with small kitchenette ( kettle, toaster, fridge) Comfy queen size bed. Short walk to new facilities block with ample hot water. ( Could do with a sqeegy to clean the floor after showering)

Gorge stay
The Luxury Swags are brand new, well styled and well appointed (can still smell the timber - in a good way) and I really enjoyed my stay. The kitchenette is a tiny sink, fridge, toaster and kettle, so no microwave (but theres a camp kitchen on site with a microwave and gas bbq). Aircon made this accom comfortable even with the single degree nights. Amenities block for toilets and shower is a 2min walk away. Would recommend arriving in daylight as the sites and roads in the grounds are a little tricky to see, and the luxury swags are so new theyre not on the signs at after hours reception yet. Lovely bushland, very quiet, lots of birds and a soft sand walking track to enjoy. Take all your food as theres nothing around. Wish my stay had been longer.

I had a lovely stay in a luxury glamping villa. It was excellent! A wonderful setup, spacious with great shower, comfortable bed & everything you need like a large fridge & aircon. I wish I could have stayed longer and had more time to explore. Thanks to the after-hours manager who was extremely helpful in directing me on how to locate the keys for simple access to my villa after hours :)

Glamping experience over Long Weekend
Stay at Ballina Beach Nature Resort Luxury Glamping tents was a mix of both worlds. Very comfortable, nice, spacious, clean tents and only 1-2 mins walk to the white sandy quiet beach. Had terrible problem with loud noise of two separate large groups over two nights with one group's party went on until midnight whereas no loud noise is allowed after 10 pm.

Beautiful long weekend away. Staff were friendly and well mannered. The luxury tent that we stayed in was clean and fully equipped with everything. The property grounds were clean and tidy aswell. It’s maybe a 500m walk to the beach. The beach looked untouched and it was like we were the only people there. We could literally only see our footprints in the sand. It’s such a secluded area and that’s exactly what I was after. We saw DOZEN’s of Dolphin’s in the early afternoon while walking along the south wall and it made the weekend even better. Was not expecting to see it at all. The cafe is excellent aswell! Not a massive menu but definitely enough if you’re not that fussy. Breakfast, lunch and dinner options 👌 Maybe a tiny bit pricey in comparison to what I’m used to paying for the meals I bought but in saying that, they were delicious. Otherwise bring your own food and use the Weber BBQ out on the deck of your tent. It was absolutely faultless guys and I will definitely be returning! Thank you so much.

It was hard to make a booking through Expedia in this property. I had to call the reception and send them all the messages and emails from Expedia and they still not accepting it until last minute. It was a bit stressful
