"Wow! Such an amazing and tranquil stay for just the one night. The staff are professional and informative, the resort feels quiet and safe and I absolutely love how many available facilities there was. I would have loved to see the beach club bar open even in winter as the sunset was stunning and our shower and toilet rooms had visible black mould on the ceilings which was a bit concerning. The bathroom didn't have an exhaust fan which I think would go a long way. Other than this, I would definitely come back for a long stay."

A stay of at least 3 to 4 days is recommended to fully appreciate the town's rich landmarks and cultural attractions, including its celebrated beach, surfing, diving, snorkeling, swimming, biking, dolphin spotting, whalewatching, walking tours, and scuba diving experiences. This itinerary offers great value for money and ensures a memorable visit steeped in history and culture.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: By visiting Hotels.com and browsing DealsOpens in a new window, you may discover attractive savings on hotels in Byron Bay. You might also explore the Last-Minute Deals section to find discounted rates on hotels close to your travel date. For added convenience, consider enabling email alerts or push notifications to stay informed about flash sales and special promotions. Additionally, the Smart Shopping feature in the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, increasing your chances of booking a cost-effective last-minute getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate based on various factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year. Therefore, having some flexibility with your travel dates could potentially help you save on your stay at a Byron Bay hotel. For those in search of distinctive accommodation, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised experience and may offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we will inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average.
