Yamba - fabulous area for holiday, and Troy's home offered a more budget friendly stay in comparison to other accommodation for us and our doggie during the peak time we stayed (Christmas - New Year). So what if its not on the beachfront ... its only a short drive to it and old Yamba for the bulk of the action as in cafes, retail, cinema, markets etc. etc. The savings you make at Troy's gives you more spending money for this kind of stuff.
