This apartment is in such a great location. Far enough from the noise and bustle of Byron itself but a pleasant easy walk downhill (by path, otherwise on the beach) to get to shops and restaurants in less than 10 minutes. We got Ubers home at night which were only $8. Each night leaving town I was reminded how grateful I was to be away from the noise. We went to bed each night with the sound of waves and woke up to the sound of birds only.
Directly across the street are the steps down to Clarke's beach which is beautiful, and a short walk around the bend brings you to The Pass, with it's lookout and the excellent breakfast option at "The Pass Cafe" (we went there 4 days in a row!) It's also a great location in that the beginning of the Cape Byron Walk through the National Park is also directly across the road. This fantastic walk takes you to the Lighthouse and views of Tallows Beach via other beaches such as Watego's.
Hosts Nic and Luke have that balance exactly right between saying hello, being friendly, and giving you space so that you feel comfortable being in their very pleasant living room. The living space has doors that open onto a balcony letting the sea breeze in, which is lovely.
As I was there with my 9 year old son, I appreciated having Netflix for the nights when we got home early (tired after surfing) and the chance to sit up reading in the living room for me, when he went to bed early.
Nic and Luke were very generous and went out of their way to help us organise to get to local attractions out of Byron Bay, which we really appreciated. Definitely recommend!
