Apartment views are staggering from both the front and back. Situated on a high point in East Ballina catching every summer breeze, yet is warmed by the sea in winter. The water and tidal sand flats, below Leisure Lee are a playground for adults and children, ideal for swimming, yabbying, fishing, wind surfing, water skiing and kite flying. Opposite is North Wall, a wonderful cycle/walkway which takes you to Lighthouse Beach, where you can surf or watch the whales and dolphins at play. How about dining across the road at the Shaws Bay Hotel with waterfront dining. A leisurely 20 min stroll will get you to the centre of Ballina. Ballina has many activities to be enjoyed such as golf, bowls, tennis, ten pin bowling, and sailing. From your apartment at Leisure Lee watch the fishing fleet go out. Cruise the Richmond River, spot a migrating whale or sit back and tantalise your taste buds with local cuisine at the many restaurants and local cafes. Go exploring the mountains, soft green hills, volcanic parks and rainforests around the Ballina and Lismore Hinterland. When day is done, light the barbie, sip on a champagne, relax and absorb the truly magical sunsets from your own apartment at Leisure Lee. You won't regret making Leisure Lee your holiday homebase, whether it's for work or play!

Detailed Reviews
I agree it is a bit old and tired, but value for money is great, we had a fully self contained apartment. We had a hire car, so found no problem with the location. A beautiful poinciana tree and eastern water dragons running around the lawn. Bruce cheerful and helpful.

You can't dislike Bruce he's a very welcoming pleasant guy which is why I don't like saying this. Apart from the incredible view , this place is very old & tired. It's not the cleanest either probably difficult to do because of its age. However Bruce if you let me know when you've refurbed I'll be back :)

On driving up to the apartments (they are set quite high of the road), I wasnt sure what to expect as the building looked rather old, however it was a little treasure. The young guy (I think the owner) was very nice and showed us to our studio unit as the place was booked out. The studio was on the first floor, and although small, the room was spotlessly clean with a nice size bathroom with a great shower. The views were amazing, and it was wonderful waking up looking over the water. Leisure Lee is great value, located in a great position, friendly staff, very neat, tidy and clean, and we will definatley stay again.

1 out of 5 the place is an absolute disgraceful place as the other reviews said they take good pictures , room was filthy , access dangerous , no one onsite to meet you , when you actually complain you get abused by the owners daughter Kate, there was no milk I was told to go buy some, I asked to be let out of the 2nd nite , was told by this Kate, to leave and I'd be refunded the 2nd nite , contacted booking.com they were told Kate is refusing refund and wants me black listed , I will be taking all necessary steps to get the 2nd nite refund, look I'm 64 never complain in my life , do yourself a favor don't be fooled by there fake photos a dump. Never ever stay there rudest people on earth. They ripped off other people and have a 1 star rating . The owners are pathetic.

Lovely holiday accommodation. Nice quiet self contained apartments. Really good location. Beautiful district and water views front and views from rear of property. Air con in rooms. Separate shower and bathroom. Easy going and flexible property owners. Had a great stay. Family and couple friendly. It’s a short walk to water and cafes. A beautiful place to wake up in.

Had to sweep bathroom and vacuum unit myself upon arrival as there was hair and dust scattered over bathroom floors and crumbs. Apartment offers a great view but owners could do a better job of presentation to maximize guests experience. Service from Sharon on front desk is also disappointing, not sure they value clientele.

When you first arrive at Leisure Lee you'll probably think the same as us, and yes it's true, this is an old building but WOW WHAT A VIEW!!! This place is a gem! The uninterrupted view of the river inlet is just amazing and the sunsets unbeatable. Our unit was perfect for us and ticked all my main criteria - comfy bed, good shower pressure, outdoor seating and spotless! The couple who run the place are friendly and if you need tips on what to do in the area they are very helpful. Ballina isn't a place we've holidayed in before but we will definitely be returning. We were only there for the weekend but it felt like a week!

I would not recommend anyone to go to this place.
Not anyone. Ever.
The staff/hosts take their private frustrations out on you.
They are also really rude, I don't think they know what customer service is.
If you can go anywhere else - I strongly recommend you do so.

Sorry to read your review, although I do question how you can not recommend us to future customers, when you didn’t stay here? I apologise if you feel we came across as rude. As you called on the day of your booking to cancel your booking, we were trying to convey our cancellation policy. We feel we tried to be fair, and if we re-rented out your room, we would not charge you. Unfortunately this didn’t happen. We feel we go above and beyond for our customers, and have proof of this with the repeat business we receive, having customers who come to visit us year after year.

My wife and I traveled for the first time to Ballina for a long weekend getaway and some R&R. I booked this hotel online through Wotif.com based on price and what seemed to be a good location. Not knowing the area I decided to take the plunge. Upon arrival we where confronted with a long 3 story 70's era building. We had booked the top floor "penthouse", and where keen to have a look through, trying not to let the 70's feel override us as quite often looks can be deceiving. In this case they where not. The interior reeked 70's decor from the floral wall paper and wood paneling, to the shag pile carpet and brightly colored bench tops. Then we saw the view and all was forgiven ! This place quite possibly has the very best view possible in Ballina. The back balcony looks over the bay and inlet to the other side and the center of Ballina. The front balcony took in the panorama of the ocean, peninsula and cove. We did spend most of our time just soaking up the views. If you want to stay at a home away from home this is the place. Very relaxing environment and some of the most helpful and pleasant host's you could hope to meet. Highly recommend the top floor penthouse if it is available.

I'm a photographer and the sunset there was fascinating . The hotel room was clean and had essential facilities. It is absolutely reasonable price for the accomodation.
The location is just fine and near for city centre and the beach . What else one can want for good weekend?
