Welcome to Bamaga motel
your cape york Accommodation
Bamaga Motel is an Indigenous-owned property right at the top of mainland Australia. Our comfortable, self-contained accommodation options offer the perfect launching pad for visitors to explore Far North Queensland, Pajinka and the Tip, and surrounding Northern Peninsula Area.
The value-for-money Motel, located behind Bamaga Tavern, is a five-minute stroll from our sister property Cape York Peninsula Lodge, where you can enjoy all of its amenities and a cool drink overlooking lush gardens and a tropical pool.
Our 15 units all feature ensuite bathrooms, air conditioning and a bar fridge to keep you comfortable in the warm, tropical climate.
Bamaga Motel also has a wheelchair-accessible room on the ground floor. Visit our accommodation section to find out more.
Treat yourself to delicious pub favourites at Regina’s Lounge & Bistro, a stone’s throw away from Bamaga Motel, or grab a cold drink while you wait for your takeaway order to be prepared at Bamaga Tavern next door.
For fine dining, visit Paperbark Restaurant at Cape York Peninsula Lodge, a five-minute walk from Bamaga Motel.
If you’re on the go, check out the BP Bamaga servo for coffee, snacks and hot food, just a 2-minute drive from us on the corner of Pajinka and Airport roads.
There’s plenty to see and do at the top of Australia and we think it’s the best part of the country (of course, we’re a little biased)!
Explore the Northern Peninsula Area with a guided tour to Pajinka in Cape York, or visit the majestic Fruit Bat Falls from the comfort of a 4x4 air-conditioned coach. Our sister property Cape York Peninsula Lodge operates the tours, and also offers vehicle hire for independent adventurers keen to explore with nothing more than a map and a point in the right direction.
