Compounds that are covalently (molecularly) bonded contain two non-metals. Compounds that are ionically bonded contain a metal and a non-metal. Sodium is a metal while bromine is a non-metal, so it will be ionically bonded.

Sodium bromide is an ionic molecule.
NaBr is an attraction between two ions Na^+ & Br^-
Since they are oppositely charged dnd both only have one charge, the charges balance and attract ; like the N & S poles of a magnet.
All the Alkali metals (M) and all the halogens(X) combine in this manner.
M^+ + X^- = MX
The fact that it is two different ion combined makes it a molecule.
