A very well located property. Quite dated though. Needed a broom in the room as sand was easily transferred into the rooms and no way of sweeping it up.

This property was really great and matched the pictures in online advertising. Very clean and fresh, very comfortable beds and had everything we needed. Very central for food and shopping and directly across the road to the beach. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to family and friends.

10/10 Exceptional

Economical accommodations and a great location!

We had a brief one-night stay on our way up the coast. Excellent location in town. Nice to fix morning coffee and walk across the street to stroll the wonderful beach. Front staff mate was excellent (Davie?). Very quiet location and convenient to everything we needed!
Gina, 1-night trip

The location was amazing. The beach at our front door and cafes, bars and shops at the back. Could walk everywhere. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

maria, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a great place to stay if your holiday is all about the beach, shopping and eating great food. The rooms were very clean, tidy and comfortable. The staff were very accomodating, friendly and available. Better than some of the much more costly accomodation nearby. We'll definitely be back.

8/10 Very good

Great location in the heart of Byron Bay. No ramps or lift to the apartments. Steps only 😕
Warren, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Pros: The location is the best part of this place, across the street from the beach and walking distance to the restaurants. The room was very simple but comfy enough and clean. Staff was very friendly. Con: Booked through Expedia because it is advertised there that there's a pool on the property (there's even a photo of the said pool). I chose this property mainly for that reason, since we have a young child that obviously loves a pool. But there's no pool and the hotel refused to give any refund due to FALSE ADVERTISEMENT. Expedia was helpful and at least provided a few point for compensation. Wifi wasn't working
