Top Micalo Island Hotel Reviews

Yamba Sun Motel

8/10 Good

"The room was very clean and tidy. Next time we’ll request a renovated room which we saw one as we were leaving and they looked very nice."

Blue Haven - Pet friendly Cottage

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent little cottage, we loved it. For those who might have big culinary plans the kitchen is pretty cosy and can only have 1 person at a time but it's super well equipped and a dishwasher in the adjoining room. It was super clean, well equipped, great location to wander around town and a very cute little place. Suited our family perfectly. Thankyou!"

Pacific Hotel Yamba

10/10 Excellent

"Although taking the cheaper room it had a view to die for and the room was lovely and clean with dining on site. Although they have live music some nights, this is told prior so no complaints there. Plenty of dining options if you don't want to eat at the hotel and walkable. Great stay."

The Surf Yamba - boutique hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Simply stunning! Incredible ocean views, perfect location and amazing room with rooftop heated pool and additional lounging/reading space. Beautiful place to visit and stay."

Moby Dick Waterfront Resort Motel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay here. We loved the beautiful view from our balcony of the Clarence River and pelicans. We enjoyed fresh fish, prawns and chips from the Fisheries Co-op next door. The staff were so friendly. Our room was spacious and clean. We walked to the Sunset and Wine Bar for exactly that, beautiful and a 10 walk from accom. Coles supermarket a 12 minute walk or 2 minute drive away. Turners Beach, Whiting Beach and city centre all 5 minute drive. We had such a relaxing stay and plan to stay at Moby again. Highly recommend!"

The Breakers Yamba

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic location and amenities"

Riverside Ranch - Oceanstays

10/10 Excellent

"All I can say is WOWThis property far exceeded my expectations. Perfect for kids with the animals, rabbits, chickens, the kangaroos trampoline pool and they especially loved the sauna Everything we needed was included. Just 2 minutes from Yamba town centre if you need anything. The vibe of the property was relaxed and carefree. The caretaker was lovely and very respectful of us Thankyou for the use of this amazing property and will definetly be staying again But will stay longer than a weekend next time"

Angourie Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent accommodation. Only minor concern- Tennis court lights were broken."

The Sands Resort

8/10 Good

"The resort was very clean and staff very friendly, but when you are paying over $500 / night , I think the property needs modernising, new untenciles, air conditioning in all rooms, block out blinds, extra bin bags, a bin in the bathrooms, a fridge without rust spots on it. If you are travelling with a baby who has a pram be prepared to carry up all the steps as no ramps or lifts to your room. Overall we enjoyed our stay but the accommodation definitely needs a renovation for their furnishings."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Micalo Island?

The best area to stay on Micalo Island is the northern end, offering convenient access to both the island's natural beauty and nearby mainland amenities.This part of the island provides a tranquil setting with direct access to the Clarence River. It's characterized by spacious properties and a relaxed pace, while still being a short drive over the bridge to the town of Yamba. The main road, River Street, runs through this section, connecting properties to the bridge and local points of interest.For families, the northern end is ideal due to its proximity to Yamba's beaches and family-friendly activities, without the bustling atmosphere of the town center. The expansive natural surroundings offer plenty of space for children to explore, and the easy access to Yamba means quick trips to shops, cafes, and additional recreational options.Couples seeking a peaceful retreat will also appreciate this area. The quiet environment and scenic river views create a relaxing escape, while still allowing for convenient excursions to Yamba for dining or exploring the coastline.

When is the best time to go to Micalo Island?

The best times to visit Micalo Island are during the shoulder seasons of autumn (March to May) and spring (September to November).During these months, you'll experience comfortable temperatures, generally ranging from 20-28°C (68-82°F), making it ideal for outdoor activities like kayaking, paddleboarding, and exploring the island's walking trails. The weather is typically sunny with less humidity than the summer months, and you'll find the island less crowded than during peak holiday periods. This allows for a more relaxed and exclusive experience, superb for couples seeking a tranquil escape or solo travelers looking for peaceful contemplation amidst nature.While winter (June to August) offers cooler, drier weather, it can be a bit chilly for swimming, with temperatures averaging 12-20°C (54-68°F). Summer (December to February) brings warmer temperatures and higher humidity, attracting more visitors, particularly families drawn to the river for water sports. However, summer also brings the highest chance of rainfall.
