Great locationFriendly staff
Mary ElizabethAustraliaStaff was very friendly, and accommodating with our requests.
The entrance of the Hotel is a bit obscure. You have the awning over the stairs but when walking the stairs are a bit obscure and walked past them. There's nothing saying that it is the entrance, on the door that is…

Balcony too small, carpet dated, shower difficult to get the right temperature, mini bar had the bare minimum on offer. Room service took an hour to arrive. Charges on our bill for services we did…
DorisAustraliaGreat spot
It’s very easy to walk to the town, of course great view of the beach but in fact a bit loud for me not being a great sleeper.
It’s a tired looking hotel and my main complaint is the lighting in the reception and…

BelindaAustraliaExtremely disappointing.
The location is its saviour.

Questions about Noah's On the Beach
What time is check-in and check-out at Noah's On the Beach?
Check-in is from 2:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Noah's On the Beach allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Noah's On the Beach?
Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Does Noah's On the Beach have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Can I book a block of rooms at Noah's On the Beach?
The property lists meeting and banquet space, which usually means it handles group business — but how many rooms it will hold at once, for how long, and at what rate are set case by case and are not in any feed. Tell us the dates and the number of rooms and we'll get those terms from the property in writing before anything is charged.
Does Noah's On the Beach have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at Noah's On the Beach?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 2:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book Noah's On the Beach?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
