Beach Cabins Merimbula

10/10 Excellent

"I think we had one of the best cabins overlooking the ocean, just a short walk down to the beach and awesome rocks out the back."

Bega Village Motor Inn

8/10 Good

"Stayed for a work trip. Room was clean and comfortable, however it was quite noisy. Noise from other rooms opening and closing doors was quite obvious and the guest in the room next door was up at 5am, so I ended up being awake then, too. Great location, across the road from the shopping centre, walking distance to main street of shops and restaurants. Didn't get time to use the pool but looked nice."

Bega Southtown Motor Inn

8/10 Good

"Lovely ladies run this place, very helpful and generous with the little packs of bikkies! Salt water pool, though small, was enough to cool off in on a hot day. However the mattress was way too firm for me so I didn't sleep, but my husband had no such complaints. The sofa was too low and uncomfortable to sit on too. There were no light blocking curtains or blinds so too much light coming into the room at night. Not much sound dampening either so noisy neighbours can be heard. However, we've stayed a couple of times now while visiting relatives and would do so again. I just take an eye mask, earplugs and mattress topper. Why? Because you get what you pay for and for budget motels, it's pretty good. It's only a short drive into town for good food, it's close to the hospital and to my relatives. The cheapest petrol in town is a block away, and it's close to the highway without going through town, so if you're exploring the coast you've got a good start. A couple of rooms I think have flat doorways from the parking space, for mobility access. No views to speak of. No breakfast but kitchenette if needed. Go to cafe evolve or the red cafe for breakfast and the pearl Chinese restaurant for dinner - they also do excellent fish and chips and other Aussie meals. So this place has all you need. Definitely give it a try."

Bega Downs Motor Inn

8/10 Good

"Good mattress for a good night's sleep. Darkening blinds and curtains, good heating and cooling, microwave, fridge and coffee facilities. But no bikkies 😕Close to shops and cafes. Not easily accessible for those with wheeled mobility aids though. Not much of a view. Drab boring interior, not even a picture on the wall, and the onsite restaurant was closed.... BUT it is only just under new management so give it a chance. I slept well and was quite comfortable for 3 nights. Lovely hot showers, all bathroom needs on pump packs on walls including shaving cream. And that comfy mattress was lovely!"
