Beautiful room and bathroom, tasteful decor. Decent teabags (British reviewer) and proper coffee provided along with fridge and toaster. Pool and surround quite small but clean and shady. There is a railway line between the house and the beach, didn’t hear any trains but might be an issue for people with small children wanting to get straight on to the beach. Nice part of town. 10 mins walk to start of shops and cafes.

Situated across the road from track to beach with a train line (vintage train passed whilst we were crossing) on the path to beach. Less than 10 minute stroll to Main Beach. Beautiful individual self contained rooms overlooking the pristine warm pool. Secure parking on site. Perfect quiet place to stay in the busy holiday period.

It was a bit hard to find the room mainly because I had been dropped off at the back of the property by the bus and didn't know I was coming in the back way at 11PM. Room was clean and nicely furnished.

A beautiful clean room with pleasing amenities. Only a short walk to the beach over the railway lines and down a sandy path. We walked into town along the beach and this only took 10 minutes. The breakfast in the morning was delightful! Everything we needed and so much more. Fresh and delicious. Service was wonderful and the grounds were very well kept. Nice and quiet surroundings. We slept soundly.

Enjoyed our stay at Cavvanbah Beach House. Hosts were wonderful, and the muffins were delicious. Suite was very clean and comfortable. The curb appeal left a little to be desired as we had a little trouble identifying the property on arrival and the pool area needs work to be as shown in the advertising photo. Overall experience was very good. Thank you to Steve and Geoff.

Thanks JT. Glad you enjoyed the stay. Yes council wont allow us to put a sign out the front so as we are tucked away, which in itself has its own appeal, we are a little hard to find if you are not familiar with the area. We are always available by phone and we do always send our guests precise arrival instructions at the time of receiving the booking. The pool area is always maintained but as we are surrounded by tropical plants and Bamboos, if its windy, there is constantly leaves dropping but we are mindful of such, and do attempt to keep the pool skimmed as often as possible. Cheers Geoff and Steven

Hello Kelly Thanks so much for the very positive review. Glad you enjoyed Cavvanbah Beach House. We do have lot of native birds around us and they can be quite noisy early right now as it's getting light earlier. The Kookaburras are the loudest!

What an amazing weekend stay! Geoff and Steven really go the extra mile to make you feel comfortable; the breakfast was perfect and the muffins waiting for us when we got back from a long day were delicious and completely unexpected. The location was great - very quiet and peaceful, yet only a 10 minute walk from the town centre. We will definitely be recommending to friends and will be back next time we are in Byron.

The room was beautiful, surrounded by palms and overlooking the pool. The breakfast supplied was beyond incredible with fresh fruit, cereal, cake, bread and jams, etc. Muffins supplied for morning/afternoon tea. The hosts were very attentive. The rooms was equipped to five star standard - so comfortable. Off street parking available too. The bed was incredibly comfortable. Everything has been up-dated to current demands.
