A Good Place to Stay at Narrabeen
We were initially a little unsure about the Narrabeen Sands as it has a 'Sports Bar' at one end which I imagine can get a little lively at the weekend. But our room was clean and comfortable, the staff were very friendly and dealt with our problem with the safe quickly and effectively
The free under cover parking is also definitely a very useful feature of the hotel.
There are surprisingly few hotels on this part of the coast but the Narrabeen Sands deserves your support on its own merits.

If you want to be on the balcony in peace stay on the beach side, otherwise traffic noise on Pittwater road.
