Comfortable and relaxing accommodation in beautiful grounds

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 20 Nov 2023
Lovely low-key accommodation in a beautiful garden setting. The rooms are modern and comfortable, with a well-equipped kitchen. The small number of rooms at the lodge added to the calm and relaxed feel. Our host Paul was so friendly and helpful, meeting us at the airport and providing us with a tour of the island and taking us to various locations for dinner each evening. The lodge is a little further out from the town, but we hired bikes for our stay which made getting around easy.

        Reviewed 12 June 2023

        I recently stayed at the Beachcomber Lodge on Lord Howe Island and it was fantastic. The rooms were nice and simple, just right for a relaxing island vacation. Everything was clean and I had everything I needed. The location was also great, nestled close to the beautiful and secluded Ned's Beach, offering quick access to a tranquil spot for relaxation or a quick swim.

        But what really made my stay special was Gary, the owner of the lodge. He picked me up from the airport, gave me a tour, and was always there to help out. The hospitality offered by Gary and his family was very welcoming. The main stores are just a short walk away from the lodge, but you might find a rental bike handy to explore the island more widely. Beachcomber Lodge is a great place to stay!

        Too old - on top of a steep hill. Don't waste your money. Also outdated for the prices charged. The Island is nice - just alot of price inflation on accommodation. If you get stuck there !!! Hello Capella!

        Prepaid $5K via Oxley Travel to secure 2 x 1 bd cottages at Beachcomber Lodge for a total of 5 nights. Unfortunately QANTAS cancelled our flights on three occasions to LHI (Oct 2022) and therefore we were unable to utilize or prepaid accommodation. Understandably guest who were unable to depart LHI were staying in our prepaid rooms, and likely paying some category of tariff to Beachcomber. Requested Gary from Beachcomber consider issuing us a partial refund or even a partial travel credit (to be used in non peak period) but to no avail. We were not seeking a full refund., nor even 50%. Have stayed at LHI previously, but this is an expensive lesson. Ensure you have adequate travel insurance (even though it is domestic travel), as QANTAS does cancel flights to LHI and Beachcomber will not offer any sort of remedy. Time for my family to find a new destination. Glen

        The stay was fine, its pretty basic so dont expect anything too flash but it does the job. Service was good here, not a lot of internet though!

        We came to LHI for our honeymoon and I would say the trip was a disaster. Couldn't get restaurant bookings & experienced rude hospo staff, it was hard to find fresh food (the island was running out of food due to the barge being turned around), we missed the Mt Gower climb due to a delayed flight by 1 day, fishing boats were broken & not going out, Balls Pyramid boat was cancelled on the day. BE PREPARED if you choose LHI for your next holiday destination.

        Very comfy bed, everything works, well equipped (including the kitchenette) and a few extra nice touches you don't find at other places in this price range on Lord Howe (e.g. toiletries, tea/coffee/sugar/milk). Staff is very accommodating, more than happy to change out towels, take you to dinner each evening, pretty much anything you need. There is no mobile service on the island but the (paid) wifi here works very well, And there is a free Telstra phone booth right outside to call and make dinner bookings or schedule activities. I saw a recent review that seemed to be oblivious to the fact that this a small (and very hilly) island and you have to consider that when booking. I think Beachcomber does very well in this environment, but do research Lord Howe before heading off and make sure it's the right holiday for you.
