Beachcomber Lodge

Lovely low-key accommodation in a beautiful garden setting. The rooms are modern and comfortable, with a well-equipped kitchen. The small number of rooms at the lodge added to the calm and relaxed feel. Our host Paul was so friendly and helpful, meeting us at the airport and providing us with a tour of the island and taking us to various locations for dinner each evening. The lodge is a little further out from the town, but we hired bikes for our stay which made getting around easy.

The property was nestled in the bush with lots of birdsong in the mornings, plenty of lovely sunshine to enjoy out on the verandah - so peaceful! - and incredible staff. Paul made the trip so easy!

Our stay at Beachcomber Lodge was simply fantastic! Highly recommended for a quiet and comfortable stay on Lord Howe Island. Gary and Paul were incredibly helpful and made sure our stay was easy, relaxing and our best holiday yet at Lord Howe Island.

Lovely quiet place with a garden. Has everything one needs for a comfortable stay

I recently stayed at the Beachcomber Lodge on Lord Howe Island and it was fantastic. The rooms were nice and simple, just right for a relaxing island vacation. Everything was clean and I had everything I needed. The location was also great, nestled close to the beautiful and secluded Ned's Beach, offering quick access to a tranquil spot for relaxation or a quick swim. But what really made my stay special was Gary, the owner of the lodge. He picked me up from the airport, gave me a tour, and was always there to help out. The hospitality offered by Gary and his family was very welcoming. The main stores are just a short walk away from the lodge, but you might find a rental bike handy to explore the island more widely. Beachcomber Lodge is a great place to stay!

Great location. Very helpful and friendly staff. Clean, well maintained and a perfect location to explore the island. Loved our stay. 🙂

Pick up from the airport right on time, also taking us back. Good explanation about where everything is on the island. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Thank you!

The lodge is located, like many in Lord Howe Island, up a hill which requires hiring a bicycle or a 10 to 15 minute walk to get to the restaurants to eat or beaches to swim. There are no views from the rooms or the lodge, but they do have a very nice garden. The room was typical average Lord Howe basic / minimal - not unattractive, but very basic. It was generally clean. Like almost all accommodation on Lord Howe, there is no airconditioning, and given the constant high humidity on the island, staying in the room during the day is mostly unbearable. On the downside, the bathroom smelled of sewerage (septic tanks?), the basin constantly clogged up with water (did not drain), there was no facecloth provided, the TV signal was hopelessly fuzzy (though Youtube worked fine), and sound came in from the adjacent rooms, moreso than any other hotel I have ever stayed in. The accommodation would be very expensive compared to other accommodation of this standard in Australia ... but perhaps not so for Lord Howe, where everything is about 50% more than the mainland.

Beachcomber was perfect for my stay… a great little kitchenette to prepare easy meals if you want a quick brekkie before a hike… close to Ned’s… clean… Paul was always around to help with anything… would definitely stay again!
