For larger groups, there is accommodation nearby, we highly recommend exploring the following nearby options in close proximity to the ranch:
Ballina Beach Nature Resort - South Ballina
​​
Nestled just a 5-minute drive away, the Ballina Beach Nature Resort stands as our nearest retreat, offering an array of luxurious cabins and glamping tents for an immersive experience.

If you prefer more of a hotel, the Ramada Hotel in Ballina is an excellent choice. Situated a mere 20-minute drive from the ranch, this upscale hotel provides all the amenities necessary for a comfortable stay. Accessing Ballina requires a short 5-minute ferry ride over the river at Burns Point (costing $7 each way). This option is especially convenient for productions seeking accommodations over multiple days.

If you would like to stay in luxury, Elements of Byron is just the place. An easy 50-minute drive up the highway will get you there from the Ranch. They are an award-winning beachfront resort, offering luxury accommodation and world-class resort facilities.
