6/10 Good

Convenient Location

Top location close to everything. Room had disability access. Nice easy access to beach.
Zarinabai, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very close to beach , shops & dining just a short walk
mark, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Great location but dated room

On the positive side this motel was in an excellent location - direct access to the beach and a 3 minute stroll into town. However the room itself was extremely dated and clearly in need of some refurbishment. If you’re planning to spend most of your time out of the room then this might be an option but otherwise I’d look elsewhere

Brett, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location. Private access to Belongil Beach. Short walk to main street of Byron, parks, etc. Rooms are very clean, basic amenities. Staff are lovely. Great place to stay if you plan to be out and about all day or sit by the pool. Given it is a motel with cars parked just out of your room, it isn’t the place to hang and chill in your room, if that is what you are after.

Cute and very central, yet quiet

Tracey, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property is showing its age but the room was clean and functional. Staff were friendly and it was only a quick walk into town, to the beach, or to tourist spots and hikes. Good value for the money.
