Motel is 20-30 min away from main beach (depending on walking speed). It was great for us, but note if you have trouble walking (since it's uphill walk from main beach) it's pretty near transit too :). Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would stay here again. Quite affordable compared to other places around."

Top Dolphin Bay Drainage Reserve Hotel Reviews

The Sebel Noosa

10/10 Excellent

"The only negative was a very dusty air conditioning vent that caused bouts of sneezing. Other than the state of the vent the apartment was fine."

Peppers Noosa Resort and Villas

8/10 Good

"We love peppers noosa and have stayed here many times. We were only here for a one night stop this time with a family of five (2 parents, 2 teenagers and 1 grandparent). The two bedroom apartment we were in this time was quite tired and I get sense the whole resort is nearing the need for a refresh. Still a great location and great place just a bit tired."
