The Supervisor Tanya was excellent very helpful & kind , there are two waterfall parks not far away in the beautiful hinterland, also it’s an easy walk to the beach through a short 2 min bush walk from back of property & a close 5 min walk to shops & plenty of eating places. Byron is a very relaxing holiday especially staying at a great motel

Will always look for this place when coming back to Byron! Spacious, clean, comfortable room. Feels exactly how I want a beach motel to feel - plus it has a pool and direct access to the beach via a private path. Seriously everything I want and look for
Verified review

8/10 Very good

The room was okay overall, but the best part was definitely the location — the beach is just nearby, and Byron Bay town centre is only about a 10-minute walk away. It was also great to have access to a BBQ area and a pool, which made the stay more enjoyable.
