My husband and I spent 3 nights in January and loved this motel. Clean, fresh rooms overlooking Merimbula, great sea breeze. Rooms had kitchenette, ensuite, large TV, DVD. It was quiet, with bush surrounds. Even though a short drive from the main area it was good to get away from the crowds. Very affordable and the pool was lovely.

My family and I stayed at the motor lodge for 4 nights from Boxing Day. It was our first trip to Merimbula. The accommodation was pretty much the only one that was available for the 4 nights that we were after and as it was a last minute decision we booked it. For a basic accommodation it was perfect it...

Stayed here 1 night. Very clean and comfortable. Basic amenities but adequate. A bit noisy from the unit above but I suppose this cant be helped. Staff helpful. Warm showers and good tv reception. Would definitely stay again.

We paid $A90 for one night's accommodation at the Merimbula Motor Lodge which is situated at 131 Merimbula Drive and only 1-2 minutes drive from the business centre of Merimbula. Our welcome was warm and helpful except for the advice regarding a good place to dine, and I will return to that advice. The motel is located in an attractive... More

I staid 8 nights at this motel and it was very clean and comfortable. I could not fault it in any way. The rooms are large and there is a kitchen area with cooktop, microwave, toaster, crockery and utensils. There is a laundry for guests and the hosts are very nice. TV, aircon, hot water, bed, all good. I travel... More

We stayed here two nights en route from Sydney/Melbourne. It is part of a larger group I believe and is managed. The rooms were large and well equipped, each having an outside picnic table. There was a swimming pool, although when we visited there were some leaves etc at the bottom. There was a laundry and drying area, in addition... More

Stayed for 2 nights in the off season. This property is the first one on the left as you come off the main highway towards town from the north. It is only a minute or two drive into town, but is really too far to comfortably walk. This is not a conventionally designed motel with a long building containing many... More

The room was very clean and suitable for our one night stopover to Melbourne. The kitchenette was useful. Location was on top of hill a very short distance from the main shopping area. We ordered room service breakfast which gave us a good start to the day. We traveled with a 14 month old who used her own little sofa... More

Clean unexpensive accomodation (with kitchenette, AC, etc.) in a small motel (first one met when driving from Bega), with a very kind welcome. No restaurant nor pool on premises. Many other motels nearby, usually larger with more facilities and sometimes displaying better deals (but where there room availables at these rates ?). Could not fault this motel but room is... More

Thanks for your feedback. One thing did strike us as strange is that we do have a pool and a large one at that. Our pool is located down in the complex and is surrounded by the natural bush setting that surrounds as on two sides. We also offer breakfast to rooms which you may not have known. We do... More
