"Good location close enough to walk to town or over to the beach.
Secure complex and apartment was very clean and tidy.
Kitchenware in room was ok. Frypan could do with replacing in that unit, and maybe at least 2 different sized frypans would be nice.
Pool is small but heated, and spa was great.
Reception not always attended, but easy enough to message or call.
Shared laundry available @ $5 a wash or dry.
We chose to pay for extra clean towels and room refresh cleans, which we were happy with.
Bed was comfortable.
Would recommend to others and stay again :)"
"Amazing amenities at the park, great food trucks, pools, tennis course. Our room was dated and strange, it might need a remodel and fresh paint but we will rebook again for sure just for the great activities for the kids but will try a different room."
"Neat little cabin, and very appreciative of there being pet friendly cabins but, sadly, we are always the most basic of them all. But all that aside, it was one of the nicest we have stayed in. Weather didn’t allow us to wander around the park much, but seemed to be very well maintained."
Bayview Beachfront Apartments, in town right on the beach
10/10 Excellent
"The property was a 1-bedroom unit with all the requirements including washing machine and dryer.
In the lounge the couch was not very comfortable; the unit had no view to the beach and little natural light.
Ther unit was perfect for beach access and great location for Byron Bay and local drives.
I would recommend the apartment but not if you're unable to freely walk around and upstairs as the was no elevator."
"Walkable property, only a couple minutes to food. Short walk to Main Beach Small room but clean, tidy and laid out well to maximise the space . No lifts , so be prepared to carry your luggage"
"Initial teething problems with TV welcoming the wrong guests and left over snacks and drink on kitchen bench dealt with by reception with welcome hamper. Issues with plumbing were a nuisance, but also fixed and on a Sunday. Location is great."
