10/10 Excellent
"The reception staff were excellent very accommodating and friendly, well located only a 5 minute walk to the Byron's town centre and beach. The cabins and the whole property was neat,clean and well maintained, I have no hesitation of recommending Glen Villa for a place to stay and will definitely be going back there in the future. There is a neat little coffee hut just outside the reception serving a good coffee and an assortment of food items."

Ballina Beach Nature Resort

8/10 Good
"Such a soft comfy bed. I stayed in a glamping tent. Was hot so I. Glad there was AC. Only thing I’d like to see perhaps is a little mirror and a shelf to put clothes etc on. Yes I understand that it’s a ‘swag’ but if you have a bed and fridge and sink etc may sweep make it a bit more glampy and pop a mirror and somewhere to put clothes instead of on the floor. Good location. Short drive to beach, probably can walk it, nice little water park too. Clean and tidy facilities. Bit pricey for the glamping tent though. If staying for a while and want secure tent, bring a little padlock. They have one to use too. Overall good stay and would visit again."
