The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Beautiful Pool Area

I loved the pool and BBQ area! It looked lovely even on a rainy day, and it was a perfect spot to relax after exploring Byron Bay. The solar-heated pool made swimming enjoyable, and the outdoor space is just beautiful. Can't wait to return!

Convenient Parking

The underground parking is really a bonus! It was super convenient to leave the car after checking in and not have to worry about finding a spot while we enjoyed our time in town. The secure parking was a great relief.

Spacious and Comfortable!

Our room was enormous, featuring a nice lounge area, a kitchen, and a balcony to enjoy morning coffee. I appreciated the cleanliness and comfort of the space, making it feel like a home away from home!

Feedback from previous guests about their experience.

6.6/10

My stay was quite enjoyable at this resort, benefiting from its neat and spacious layout. The main highlights were the clean gardens and the convenience of being just a short stroll from the beach. Unfortunately, I encountered a major issue with noise from the main road, which dampened the experience a bit. The amenities were pretty basic, and while everything was mostly pleasant, it did feel a little outdated in parts.

Rooms

The room was tidy and offered basic amenities like a small kitchen setup, but the bed was a bit uncomfortable and the noise from the main road was disruptive until late at night.

Had mixed experiences with service; while some staff were helpful, I faced a very rude response from the manager regarding my room issue, which was disappointing.

The resort's location is fantastic, just a five-minute walk from the town center and the beach, which made exploring the area very easy.

We had a wonderful stay, enjoying the clean and spacious apartment. The surrounding pool and garden areas were beautifully maintained, which added to our overall relaxation. While the apartment was a bit dated, it had all the essentials we needed for a comfortable stay. The location is just perfect, close to the beach and shops, but we did find the noise from neighboring guests a bit bothersome at times.

We had a wonderful six-night stay at this hotel. It was exceptionally clean and had a perfect location, just a short walk from the town. The staff was friendly and helpful, making our experience even better. That said, I wish they would consider making the property completely smoke-free, as we had some issues with smoke drifting from neighboring balconies.

We had a wonderful stay at the apartment, thanks to the comfy bed and great movie selection. The location was a highlight, just a quick walk to dining options for lunch, dinner, and breakfast. There were some annoying footsteps from above, but for the price we paid, it was a small issue we could overlook.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On one hand, the location is fantastic, making it easy to walk into the town and hit the beach, and the apartments are spacious and generally well-maintained. On the other hand, the reviews about the amenities being sparse and the sound insulation lacking were definitely on point. Overall, I found it a bit lacking in some areas, especially for those expecting full hotel services.

Rooms

The apartments were spacious and generally clean, providing enough room to move around and equipped with basic cooking facilities. However, there was a significant lack of essentials like sufficient towels and toiletries.

The pool and spa were fantastic, providing a nice retreat after a day out. Private parking was a plus, but the laundry facilities were quite limited for the number of units.
