Great Motel with Pet facilities - Spotless!!!
Great place to stay. Exceptionally clean and tidy. Staff nice. Rooms comfortable. It was the first time we have taken our little dog on a log road trip with no caravan so was worried about staying in a pet room, but I have to say it was a cracking resort and the room was tidy!

Cubana resort Nambucca
The resort lacked warmth and ambience the
room was sparsely furnished, seating was extremely uncomfortable one redeeming factor the bed was comfortable
The menu offered very little choice there was seven dishes to choose from all Mexican, we ate at the RSL,food there was delicous and plenty of choiceThe Cubana resort was very disappointing we paid $774 dollars for three nights and left a day early.

Always a great experience and has never disappointed us.
The book-in was friendly and easy, as was our departure.
The room was clean, tidy and spacious with a great view over the gardens.
I won’t hesitate to book here again.

Very clean place and tidy ,staff were very friendly and helpful but I wish the fridge in the room kept our things colder and had a freezer and the room didn't have a smoke detector I noticed and a safe to keep valuables safe so I got a bit paranoid about keeping any valuable in but other wise what a nice place to stay

Well situated and layout great a bonus was a very quiet fridge and very little road noise. I missed the biscuits, spa and steam room out of order, but the gardens are beautiful. Will stay again next time I’m travelling.

Room big, comfortable, airy. Kitchenette area a bit pokey. Need a couple of bowls, spoons added so you can have option of eating own breakfast.
Great as per friendly. Only stayed the one night but very happy with the room.
