What an amazing villa; the photos simply do not do it justice!
The beds and couch were VERY comfortable, and a nice surprise was that the queen size bed in the main room was actually a king size! (Bath towels were those lovely big ones that you can only dream about when you're on holiday - usually the ones you have to keep back home).
The walk into town is around 5-10 minutes (depending if you have little ones tagging along), the beach is about the same heading in the opposite direction - once you're on the beach it feels so private as there are only a few access points along this part.
Instructions were easy to follow, host was lovely and very helpful; there were a family of kookaburras sitting outside - such a peaceful little place.
For those of you looking for a pool - this place has a heated salt walter pool less than 20 metres from the villa with plenty of shaded seating (and sun seating); great for kids.
We didn't utilize the kitchen as the Byron Bay restaurants were far too tempting for daily meals but there was a big fridge and plenty of utensils available.
Very very happy with our stay and a big thank you to the host for ensuring that our stay was a wonderful way to end our month long holiday :)
