    This family owned business should be on the top of every traveler’s list when looking for authentic Byron Bay. Every detail has been considered and the lodge has the perfect balance of eco-conscious facilities with tasteful interior design and an unbeatable location. Nick was so helpful in getting us our check-in information on arrival day. As seasoned traveler’s our group of friends recognises and appreciates a curated accommodation and we will be recommending Bayhaven Lodge to our communities domestic and abroad.

    The Eco Pod was absolutely gorgeous inside, and well designed so everything fitted into the small space. Spotlessly clean and smelled of the wood that the interior was made from. The deck outside had a table you could eat at as well as soft chairs and a coffee table.

    Absolutely stunning suite with the beach right at your door step. Suffolk Park is always a lovely quieter area to relax in with a more local experience of the Byron area but not too far to enjoy the bustle of excitement with Byron main town just a few minutes drive. You must not miss a sunrise walk at the beach if the weather permits, it's 100% worth rising a little earlier in summer! The interior design/styling of the suite was phenomenal with a bit of everything, whether you are here for a long or shot term stay, work or play.
