Loved the lighthouse view

An excellent property, in an excellent location, and the view was spectacular - though you did need some very good binocs to see the whales off Tallow beach from the (lovely) balcony. An easy stroll to both Tallow, through we loved head over to the main beach and the lovely surf at the pass.

Beautiful and relaxing.

Beautiful location with lovely view of lighthouse and the sea. One of the most relaxing holidays we have ever had. Very quiet and private but only a short walk to one of Byron’s best coffee shops and only around 11 mins walk to beach and 18 minutes to town. Couldn’t be more perfect.

Wonderful place and beautiful views

Absolutely loved our stay here! The place was in immaculate condition and really made us feel at home. We loved sitting on the balcony throughout the stay, especially because we could watch the whales swim past!! Great walking distance to the beach (10 min walk), walking distance to the lighthouse walking track and shops. It was so beautiful, quiet and private we can’t wait to return!! Thank you again to everyone who made the stay as comfortable and seamless as it was.

Very good but could have been great

This is a very nice property with lovely views. Overall we enjoyed our stay, especially after we got to the grocery to buy the essentials that I believe should have been on hand. For the cost I suggest the owners supply enough soap and shampoo, real coffee and milk and laundry detergent for a three day stay.

High up on the mountain

This property is a great location for view and quiet. However, it is an uphill hike to/from town. Parking in town is anything but easy and inexpensive. One must be prepared to hunt for space. There is everything one would need in the unit for an enjoyable vacation, however towels are at a premium. One hand towel for two guests in insufficient. Bring Beach towels are they are not supplied. The doors are accessed via codes, be sure to have the codes written down or you will be locked out, no keys. Parking at the unit is very tight, but accessible. The unit also has Netflix which is a bonus. Over all it is a very nice place. We enjoyed our stay.

A lovely property and great location

This was a lovely property, we enjoyed our stay - we actually extended it for a couple of days but we did encounter quite a few issues. The Foxtel wouldn't work, there were issues with the dishwasher, the BBQ wasn't clean nor the balcony. Also was disappointed that for a unit that was labelled as luxury the bed didn't have the correct size linen on it and was about 6 inches short for the bed. The fan in the bathroom is so clogged that it doesn't work. Also, I know this is out of control of the owners but major construction across the road and tradies arriving as early as 5.45am on one day. They were there every day except the weekend which unfortunately meant that we couldn't enjoy the property throughout the day and had to leave early and return after 5pm just to get some peace. We were compensated for the first few issues we had with a gift voucher which was unexpected and we were grateful for. For the amount of money we spent I expected better.

Excellent property and highly recommended but let down a little by lack of personal touch. Well stocked kitchen with cooking essentials, tea & coffee but after a long journey to the venue, it was frustrating to not have any small cartons of UHT milk provided. Also no hair shampoo or conditioner and we had to ring and ask where the hairdryer was kept as not at all obvious that the bathroom mirror had a cupboard behind it. Biggest irritant was a 2 page “welcome” document that contained 5 separate warnings of financial penalty if certain rules not followed with further warnings on a list received by email a day before leaving. It would have also been more personal to give some recommendations on decent restaurants and places worth visiting in the area rather than provide a commercially produced document that just had loads of adverts and a list of 60+ food outlets. We also had to ask where the nearest supermarket was. It is surprising that the management hadn’t considered these matters from the visitor’s perspective.

Beautiful, well presented property with fabulous views from the balcony and living room. Everything we needed was supplied and when there was a minor glitch with the power the electrician was there within 10 minutes. Great location, close to Clarke’s Beach and within a 20 min walk to the centre of Byron.

Paradise!

My husband and I stayed here for four days around the Easter break and had a lovely time! I highly suggest this property especially if you are looking to be close enough to walk into the Byron village but want to tucked away where it is quiet. The view is fantastic and there is a trail that leads right into the national park and up to the lighthouse. The apartment is furnished to high standards and the kitchen had everything needed to whip up great meals. The balcony area would have to be our favorite spot and every morning started with a cup of tea in the wicker swing taking in the lighthouse sunrise. Deb and Sarah were super helpful and on call when we accidentally locked ourselves out- Huge thank you to the hosts for making our stay so amazing-Can't wait to come back!
