The property is showing its age but the room was clean and functional. Staff were friendly and it was only a quick walk into town, to the beach, or to tourist spots and hikes. Good value for the money.

First visit to Byron Bay
Average place needs TLC. On site parking, main road so care needs to be taken entering and exiting driveway. Walk to beach was ok, but cross railway tracks can incur fine $1K. Only scenery train runs.
Suzanne, 2-night trip

Great location near Byron Bay. The motel was clean and the beds were comfortable, but the room was showing its age.
Aaron, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

What an excellent find! Clean, and pretty decor. The room was so big and spacious, with big bench spaces, both in room and bathroom. Great bed and shower! Pool area looked nice but didnt get to use it. Two min walk to the main shopping and restaurants, so no need to look for parking and parking fees!

Small old school drive up to room motel. It suited our needs as we really only needed a bed at night. We were out during the days and dinner times. Budget property, close to main shopping, walking distance to most amenities, beach & shops.
