Thanks for the great review Pete! It really is a special spot and we’re thrilled you enjoyed both the house & the location. We’d absolutely love to welcome you back again anytime 😊
Secluded beachfront bungalow - very quite and peaceful location but only a short drive to Byron Bay. We really liked that it was pet friendly but our very small chihuahua found a gap in the fence so we had to keep an eye on her. Larger dogs would be ok and not get through gap.
Absolutely loved my week stay in the Bungalow. Surrounded by nature and with the ocean right out the front,
Super clean and comfortable with everything you need to relax and recharge.
Can't wait to come back !
What a wonderful hideaway. So close to the beach, a beautiful garden that the dogs loved exploring. Everything you need is there. Amanda and Gigi left a wonderful welcome pack that just made our day.
Quiet, secluded and on the beach. A short drive to dog friendly beaches and Byron Bay shops (10 min)

Amazing location! This little haven is tucked away into a little corner of paradise, so peaceful you wouldn't know there was anyone else around, just the soothing ocean meeting the shore along with birdsong and maybe a wallaby and baby foraging in the national park that the property directly backs onto,we will be making this place our annual retreat.

A gem
A very relaxing place - just what we needed to escape the busyness of life.

Thanks Wez for your great review! The Bungalow is indeed the perfect place to "Cheer Up, Slow Down & Chill Out". Thank you for being wonderful guests and we hope you get the chance to escape to the Bungalow again soon.
You really don't need to think of anything here. It is all supplied, in abundance and of quality. From great coffee to a bottle of bubbles in the fridge, towels, bath salts, and good knives!!!

Oh thank you so much for the wonderful 5star review Frances, we are thrilled you enjoyed your stay at The Bungalow. Great to hear you enjoyed a luxe relax in the bath with salts ! Thanks for being such wonderful guests.
This property is as stunning as the photos promise. Especially the quite large bathroom exceeded our expectations and the bed was very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked too, and even little details like sunscreen and mozzie spray was thought after. There were beach chairs, boards and bicycles free to use for convenience. The owners were very friendly and quickly responded to inquiries. The garden was lush and big and the property felt safe to let our dog off leash. Would absolutely go again and recommend to anyone, who likes to wake up to the sound of the ocean.

We're delighted you loved your stay at our beach Bungalow, and that your fur baby got to join in the holiday too! Thanks for taking the time to leave such a thorough review we really appreciate the great feedback, and thank you also for being such wonderful guests! Safe travels & we hope to see you again soon.... Amanda & Geri Xx
Our stay at the bungalow was fabulous. It was beautifully designed with everything we needed. In a peaceful setting amongst the trees of the national park it was just the spot to wind down from a hectic lead up to Christmas.
Dealing with Amanda and Kaz was seamless and they were extremely helpful. They even left a beautiful Christmas tree , a bottle of bubbles and cheese platter for us...lovely and thoughtful touch.
Beautifully appointed with local artisan crockery and a stunning bathroom. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. 5 stars to you both.
Thank you for making our stay so comfortable.

Secluded Bliss
My wife and I, along with another couple, wanted an affordable luxury escape which is generally very hard to find... until we stumbled across this gem.
From the moment we booked our stay to the moment we left we were over the moon with the area and the Bungalow. My wife and I had the master bedroom where we had a brilliant night sleep in the King bed.
Our mates slept on the sofa lounge in the lounge room, and had no complaints at all with comfort.
Opening the stacking sliding doors gives it such a wonderful, spacious feel.
Kitchen facilities are great, Bathroom is amazing!
Being able to wake up to the sound of nature and waves make a nespresso coffee before a surf and stroll along the beach, and all at this price makes this place a must.
Good proximity to pub/bakery/shops at Suffolk, and less than 10 minuets into Byron, its hard to not book this place every weekend.

Perfect getaway
Even before we arrived the service has been amazing. Our morning flight from Melbourne was cancelled and we didn’t arrive in Broken Head until 11pm. Amanda arranged for snacks and breakfast items to be there when we arrived.
The accommodation itself was immaculate, super comfy, private and quiet. Each day we awoke to birds chirping and a wallaby grazing on the lawn. We made the most of the private beach access for walks, runs and surfing.
We ate at amazing, world class local restaurants (Harvest, General Store, The Farm, Light Years)
We have completely destressed and really did not want to go back to the Melbourne hustle.
We would not have changed 1 thing and can not wait to return. We will also recommend the Bungalow to our friends and family.
Thank you so much

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Communication
The main issue was that around early evening, a putrid, poo and sewer smell settled in. Whilst it was likely coming from the surroundings (as opposed to the property itself), it ruined our stay. The smell was so strong that we could not sleep. Both the gardener, cleaner and property caretaker acknowledged the issue, but had different views on the cause (from the nearly wetland to the house next door and council sewers).

Amazing Place
Thanks to Amanda and Kaz - we had a superb time staying at the Bungalow. Kaz was available within about 1 minute on the first day when I misplaced the door code and on another couple occasions for advice.
It was lovely and private and a short walk to the beach. It was appointed nicely and had pretty much everything we could have needed. We ended up eating all of our breakfasts and dinners "at home" and about 3 lunches. So, we made good use of the cooking facilities and barbecue. Restaurant scene in Byron is fabulous and the Suffolk Park Bakery was brilliant - they made a fantastic cake for our daughter's 17th birthday on Christmas Day. We used the bikes (and the 2 extras that they arranged for us) every day for beach rides.
The property and surrounds are modern, beautifully appointed and seemlessly integrated into the natural environment.
For either a couple or a family with children (ours' were 17 and 14 year old girls) this is a very special place. Despite the distance from Vancouver we would give serious consideration to returning! (And we have lived in Australia previously and traveled everywhere from Albany to Broome, Darwin to Mount Gambier, Cape Trib to Hobart, and the hot places in the middle).

Great property, well designed and user friendly. It’s secluded but everything you need is a short drive away. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting a luxury escape to relax and unwind. Will be back!

Thank you Simone, we are delighted that you enjoyed your stay at Byron Beach Retreats, The Bungalow. You are welcome back anytime!
Lovely experience staying at the Bungalow. It's secluded with all the facilities you need but is also accessible to everything. The waves crashing in the background make spending time anywhere in the property very special. The team were very responsive to our wifi issues - once sorted, it was fast and reliable. Well be back again!

Oh wow thanks for the wonderful review Katie and Davey! We are thrilled you loved your stay in our little pocket of paradise, and thanks for being such wonderful guests.
The Bungalow was designed by a local architect HGA (Harley Graham Architects), we were so happy with our Bungalow we have worked with them again to design our newest addition to our Beach Retreats stable - The Eco Lodge - again we have been thrilled with the end result.
We very much look forward to welcoming you back again soon! Take care. Amanda Xx
This is our third stay at the Bungalow and once again has been an absolute pleasure to stay. You can beat the incredible location, the beautiful sounds of the ocean or the creature comforts of the bungalow itself. We will be back!
