What to do in Byron Bay
Byron Bay Gold Coast Brisbane Noosa Hop-On Hop-Off Pass
"This place is amazing! I stayed here with my two sons in a two bedroom apartment-style unit. Overall, the facility is great, a luxury apartment on a property that felt like being in a national park. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Swimming pools were large and luxurious with pool-side bars. On-site dining in room service were also great. I would definitely stay here again."
"The room was not properly cleaned and, in all likelihood, had not been for some time. Shards of broken glass were scattered around on the floor, shower cubicle was very slippery as had not been properly cleaned beyond a cursory wipe-over. Somehow the front desk staff were critical of US for not notifying them earlier - not a very friendly or empathetic response."
"It’s a great location and nice vibe.
Just two things:
1. The bed is up very steep spiral staircase… toilet is downstairs. If you go to the loo in the middle of the night take care!
2. The spare pullout bed was crazy uncomfortable, saggy middle and blocks access to the front door. I gave this feedback and got a slightly passive aggressive response. Much better to just sleep on the bench couch downstairs if you have to."
