We stayed at Dolphins overnight en route to Surfers Paradise.. Clean large sized room and bathroom.. very friendly reception staff.. Check in and checkout were no problem at all.. A little bit out of the way, but we were happy to walk into town for dinner..

The staff were very helpful and friendly.I was also surprised to see their free dvd service. Their WiFi was free and easily accessed (not laways the case). It was also good value. We were a couple...

I would highly recommend this as an excellent budget option in the Byron Bay area. The managers were exceptionally helpful to me. The room I stayed in (11) was pleasantly spacious. It's on a main road but this didn't cause a problem even though I like quiet. The air con was welcome and the free dvds a bonus. I had... More

Finding Dolphins Beach House on-line through booking.com my partner and I booked a one night stay while travelling up to Bundaberg from Brisbane. One of the reasons we booked this accommodation, over several others, was due to advertised air conditioning in the room and a private bathroom. > Unfortunately after returning from dinner we discovered the air conditioning was on...

We stayed at Dolphins in Nov 2011 and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The room was spacious, clean and excellent value for money. The new owners could not have done enough for us. Location is only a short walk to town centre and there is a charming cafe next door who do a great breakfast. We would recommend this motel to anyone... More

It is located about 10 minutes stroll from the town centre which is the focal point for restaurants, cafes and pubs. The room is a fair size but the bathroom is very large with a walk-in shower cubicle big enough for two people. The decor was in good order and everything worked fine. The motel also offers free WiFi. The... More

Spent a week in Dolphins during October, and had a great time. The rooms were very clean, and had everything needed including hairdryer, and cooking equipment. The new Managers Ross and Helen were exceptionally kind and helpful, telling us the best places to see the Whales, eat, etc. The motel was within walking distance from town(we didn't have a car),...
