Find a Great Motel South Johnstone

"It’s a good place to stay. The staff and the owners are very accommodating people. Actually it’s not my first time to here. I came back."

"We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful Bingil Bay property! From the moment we arrived (late, mind you), the lights were on for us so we didn't have to navigate in the dark - we were struck by how thoughtfully styled and welcoming the space was.Bingil Bay has a much quieter, tranquil atmosphere compared to down the road at Mission Beach, which was exactly what we needed.Viv and Mick have clearly put so much care into creating a wonderful guest experience. We were delighted to find breakfast provisions and milk waiting for us, which was incredibly thoughtful and practical since we checked in much later than planned. These little touches made all the difference and showed real attention to guest comfort. When we had an issue with some lights, Mick arrived within moments to sort it out for us.The location is also ideal - just around the corner (seriously like a 1 min walk) to Bingil Bay Cafe where we enjoyed excellent coffees and delicious meals throughout our stay. The proximity to the beach was also within easy walking distance. Our daughter was thrilled with the selection of board games available, which provided lovely family entertainment in the evenings. The property truly had everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.We wouldn't hesitate to return and highly recommend it to anyone seeking a peaceful coastal retreat.Thank you for such a memorable stay!"

"Glamping at its finest! Great staff"

"Best hostel I’ve stayed at in Australia! Staff are incredible (especially Sarah). Location is stunning - it’s remote but gorgeous. I would -*highly* recommend a couple of nights here on your East Coast travels and certainly better than staying in Mission Beach which is full of construction. Despite being so remote, the prices at the cafe are very reasonable and the food and drinks are great quality. Spacious rooms, lovely communal areas, good bathrooms. I absolutely loved it here and would definitely return if I found myself in the area again. Wonderful experience and great memories made. I will be shouting about this place forever!! "

"Very close to shops & friendly staff "

"Rooms are dated but very clean. Fresh towels each day. Lovely hot shower. Bar fridge & kettle. Very convenient location & the owner Jim was lovely & helpful. Traffic noise being on highway but expected & I wear earplugs so didn't bother me. Thanks for a lovely stay. "

"Warm welcome. Amazing setting with a river at their door step. Falling asleep to the sound of that river was magical. Fantastic conversations with both Peter and Steve. Great guys with amazing stories and great travel tips for my future camping spots in the Kimberley region. Yummy eggs on toast for breakfast and even better, a pea & ham soup that Peter gifted me for my journey. Peter that soup was a party in my mouth, so so delicious. I can't thank you enough. I will definitely be back. "

"Quiet,clean and near the beach "

"Rochelle and Ian are thoughtful hosts who provide a lovely home away from home experience for travellers. The cabin is cozy but has everything you need for a comfortable place to relax and enjoy. We loved sitting on the deck in the morning and evening. The garden is beautiful and fully fenced which helped us to relax as our dog was safe and had a great space to wander around and explore. Rochelle is a dog whisperer and won over our very selective dog. Kurramine beach was a quick trip and Mission beach and Innisfail are 20 minutes drive. We will return as we found the property was perfect for our needs. Highly recommend. "
