AMA sits in the heart of Albany, a short walk from the waterfront, the town centre, and the best the region has to offer. Leave the car at the motel and step straight into it.

The harbour is a few minutes on foot. So are the cafes, the restaurants, the boutique shops and the historic streets that make Albany's town centre worth exploring slowly. When you're ready to venture further, Torndirrup National Park, the Great Southern wine roads and the rugged coastline are all an easy drive away.
