The Cubana Ballina

The Cubana Ballina

10/10 Excellent
"This is a cute, renovated old style budget motel. We stayed one night as part of a longer trip and were very happy with this place. It’s close to the river walk, and is about 1km easy walk into the centre of Ballina. Reception isn’t 24 hours but they have key boxes for late arrivals. There is a nice outdoor pool area and parking outside the unit’s door. Tea and coffee making is provided and the room was big enough for us to lay out our 2 suitcases."

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to East Lismore?
The best time to go to East Lismore is during the autumn (March to May) and spring (September to November) months, when the weather is most pleasant for exploring.

During autumn, you'll find comfortable temperatures, typically ranging from 15°C to 25°C, with lower humidity. This makes it ideal for enjoying outdoor activities like visiting the local parks or exploring the regional art galleries without the intensity of summer heat. It's a great time for couples or solo travellers who appreciate comfortable weather for sightseeing and leisurely walks.

Spring offers similar mild conditions, with temperatures from 18°C to 28°C, and the region comes alive with blooming flora. This period is particularly good for families looking to enjoy the area's natural beauty, perhaps with a visit to the Lismore Rainforest Botanic Gardens, where the plants are at their most vibrant. The milder weather also makes it pleasant for visiting the local markets and community events.
