Great Location close to the beach, Great Stay!

The Cove at Yamba was Awesome, we had an apartment with kitchen, it had a 65" Smart TV, and large balcony that we enjoyed our own cooked breakfast, and they assisted us with booking a courtesy bus to the Tavern. Also got a late checkout, they were no fuss hosts, very helpful & friendly! I'd stay again.

Wondeful apartments

We had a wonderful stay in a lovely one bed garden apartment. Well equipped and clean, with a comfy bed, plentiful hot water and a good shower. The grounds and pool are spotless. The property manager is the best we've experienced in our mulitple visits to Australia. We were greeted, out of hours, with a welcoming smile, nothing was too much trouble. The couple of minor issues we had in the apartment were quickly dealt with. Location is good, steps from a patrolled beach that is perfect for families. We'll definitely be recommending The Cove to family and friends in QLD and would stay here again in a heartbeat.
