Where to stay in Batemans Bay
Long shorelines, slow lunches and water you can see your feet in. Choosing the right area in Batemans Bay matters more than choosing the right hotel — a central room saves an hour a day, and an hour a day is a whole day on a week's trip. Rooms start from around $215/night.
The best areas to stay in Batemans Bay
The historic centre
If it's your first time in Batemans Bay and you're here for three nights or fewer, stay central. You'll pay a premium per night and win it back in taxi fares and walking time. Use Booking.com's map view and draw your search around the oldest part of town.
One neighbourhood out
The band just outside the centre is where Batemans Bay gets interesting and considerably cheaper — usually 25–40% less for the same standard of room, and a ten-minute walk or one stop on public transport from everything.
Beachfront
Beachfront in Batemans Bay costs the most and is worth it only if you'll use the beach daily. Check on the map exactly which stretch of sand the property fronts — 'beach nearby' can mean a fifteen-minute walk with a buggy.
How to choose in five minutes
