Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

After travelling through nsw for a couple of weeks we came across Santa Fe in Lennox Head and have found a home away from home! Very clean and comfortable with a larger than average spaced rooms. Everything is so close and you don’t need your car and battle with parking we found as a bonus, one short block back from main beach, shops, iga and eateries. The Lennox Club is even closer with great priced meals. Highly recommend this for value and comfort. The manager even made a super effort for our 4 year old making an elephant out of towels when our room got changed.

Dave, the manager couldn't have been more helpful with my predicament (wheelchair) when I phoned prior to making the trip up, as a recent accident had put us in jeopardy. Dave went to great lengths to see how he could accommodate our needs (including relocating us downstairs and providing/responding to further needs) to make our visit possible.
On arrival, again, Dave was very accommodating (organising a few extra things for our room to help) and we found the surrounds and building very well maintained with pleasant, clean rooms. The grounds were spotless; the staff were also very cheery and helpful.
The location was spot on for us, only one street back from the turning 'left' toward the lake, or 'right' toward the shops for a 500m walk either way. Plenty of parking on site or just at the front on the street.

My husband I stayed 6 nights over the Xmas holidays. I would describe the accommodation as a studio apartment. Exceptionally clean, even though it has air conditioning there was always a fresh breeze coming through apartment and ceiling fans in living room and bedroom. It was perfect for our needs and would highly recommend.

From the 1st ph call to check out the customer service was faultless. We were upgraded and allowed a early check in, The accomodation while aging was emmaculately clean as were the grounds and pool area. The location is a casual stroll to all local ammenties and the beach. If you a not a resort person then this is where you should stay.

Excellent location, spotlessly clean and so comfortable. There were 5 of us in a 2 bedroom unit and there was enough space for us all which made our stay even more relaxing. We were able to walk to the beach, shops and restaurants. Will definitely stay again

Dave is friendly and the location is terrific. Overall the unit was perfect for me as close by the family gathering I was in Lennox for. The bathroom is a bit dated, but more importantly the shower screen was dirty with soap from previous rentals, as was the plastic glass for toothbrushes - cleaned this myself by soaking it in hot water. The TV remote didn't work (probably needed a new battery) but I used the back buttons behind the tv. The carpet had been cleaned but tiny sparkles from some party were everywhere so the vacuum isn't up to scratch. If the cleaner was more focused on a high standard this would improve first impressions.

I was caught up in the NSW floods and stuck in Lennox Heads for 3 nights while the Pacific Highway was closed...and as a girl travelling on her own, I'm so glad I found Santa Fe. It was a scary time with flood warnings a few towns away, but the owner was so caring, supportive and gave us great knowledge of the area to make the best decision. I'd come back to Santa Fe again as the beds were comfortable, room clean and the location excellent that restaurants, shops and beach was walking distance. Recommend to anyone!
