There are several lively restaurants, live bad on Sunday arvo to night. I loved it!! But if u have a challenging Bub / toddler it may possibly be a touch loud. Excellent food, best coffee, great crowd at your fingertips. Retro rooms, new reno, pool with drink bar, cool retro fit. I had the single queen and loved it. Maybe a wee difficult for family of little ones.
Wishing Sails a very bright future 🙏

We enjoyed our overnight stay here. Although it was noisy from the neighbouring residence starting their mower before 0800, we would like to stay here again whenever we visit Brunswick heads.

Location Location - Hard to believe that a renovated Sails Motel at Brunswick Heads is in the middle of the Brunswick Township. Our Unit was so quiet and offered all the mod cons that you need - Micro oven, very small fridge that is not easy to use. A large TV but unfortunately, we were unable to use as we have free to air at home and also Foxtel. We were unable to see the sport as Foxtel was not one of the services you could use. Comfortable bed, Dark Shades in the window. Spacious bathroom and toilet. We parked our car in front of our unit and walked to down town. Brunswick Heads now has paid parking of $5 hour so you are best to park at the motel and walk everywhere. Two Cafe's just outside the Motel that were very popular with the locals. Would loved to use the pool are but the locals said the pool was not heated and very cold. All staff were very friendly and always there to please you. We highly recommend The Sails Motel. The Brunswick Heads Hotel is very popular but expensive. Also the Brunswick Heads Bowls Club is only a 5 minute drive. Has great meals at realistic prices, they also have theme nights eg Italian and Indian night etc where the meal is $24. The local Trivia Nights which most of locals attend. Free Pool all day - a winner with the young and old.
Do not walk down to the Bowls Club at night as the lighting is very poor and the pathway needs repair.
Heaps of parking near the Bowls Club and it is free. All staff are Helpful and very friendly
