We had a lovely stay at Joanne's Apartment and time in Byron Bay celebrating a birthday. We found the apartment to be just as pictured, immaculately clean and had everything you need for a comfortable stay. I read some earlier comments about the apartment being dark - we did not find the apartment to be dark at all and enjoyed sitting in the nice warm sun on the day bed outside. Just across the road from the beach and a short drive into town . Joanne had some great recommendations for local restaurants which we enjoyed and appreciated. Great stay, we will be back.
