"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.

"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."

When is the best time to go to Yamba?
The best time to visit Yamba depends on your preferences for weather and activities, but generally, the shoulder seasons of autumn (March to May) and spring (September to November) offer the most pleasant conditions.During autumn, the weather is typically warm and sunny, with average temperatures ranging from 20°C to 27°C. The ocean remains warm enough for swimming and surfing, and the crowds from the summer holidays have dispersed, making it a more relaxed time to enjoy the beaches and local cafes. This period is ideal for couples looking for a peaceful escape with comfortable weather for exploring.Spring also brings lovely weather, with temperatures between 20°C and 25°C, and the water starts to warm up, making it great for beach activities. You'll find fewer crowds compared to the peak summer months, and the natural scenery is particularly lush. Families with younger children might find this a good time to visit, as the milder temperatures are great for outdoor play without the intense heat of summer, and there are plenty of opportunities for dolphin and whale watching as they migrate along the coast.While summer (December to February) is popular for its hot weather and vibrant beach scene, it's also the busiest and most expensive time to visit.
