The Beach Shack Byron Bay

One of the most relaxing places I’ve ever stayed. The garden villas open up onto a beautiful little garden and although the accomodation is close to the heart of Byron, it feels like you are miles away from anything. The host, Veronica, is amazing and goes above and beyond to make the stay enjoyable.

I stayed here with my husband during 5 nights! Veronica is a lovely lady who looked after us like her best friends! She put every morning a “ special treat” for us on the kitchen. The place is clean, cozy and comfortable! Surely, I’ll stay here again when I come back to Byron Bay.❤️ Veronica, thank you so much for your kindness! Regards Fernanda 🇧🇷

We stayed at the Beach Shack in Byron Bay for four nights in late March and early April 2025 as part of a memorable 37 day visit to Australia. It is a small and very private property in a garden setting, just away from but within walking distance of the hustle bustle of Main Beach, the central shopping area and the challenging but wonderful Byron Bay Lighthouse Trail. Our “beach shack” was certainly more than that, a large and comfortably furnished room with a king bed and sofa, a well appointed bathroom and a great patio with table and chairs and a comfortable sofa. We loved the sounds of the birds in the morning and the occasional wildlife sighting. We also enjoyed the daily breakfast treats and appreciated the communal kitchen and laundry facilities. The Beach Shack is also within walking distance of nearby Belongil Beach across from which is the family-friendly and reasonably priced Treehouse Restaurant where we had dinner twice. All of that aside, what made our stay most memorable was the warmth and generous hospitality of Veronica, the wonderful hands-on owner of the Beach Shack. Her restaurant recommendations and reservations, sightseeing advice and positive vibes made our stay at the Beach Shack a special one. We would welcome an opportunity to stay there again and would recommend it without reservation for those seeking a tranquil retreat with easy access to Byron Bay.

We had a lovely time at this beautiful, secluded and comfortable place. It was just a short stroll to the beach and town, making it the perfect place to relax. Our lovely host, Veronica, went above and beyond to make our stay truly special. Every morning, she would surprise us with delicious treats, on top of her divine homemade muesli. We’re so impressed with how warm and thoughtful she is!

A wonderful two night stay, wish it was longer. The accommodation is thoughtfully set out to make your stay comfortable. The host is welcoming and very helpful. Our cabin was well equipped and the shared kitchen is ideal if you want to stay in to eat. The Beach Shack is a couple of minutes walk from the beach and 10 minutes from all that Byron Bay has to offer.

What a gem. Quite a comfortable room with the added charm of a proprietor who really cares about her guests. In addition to dinner and activity tips from a veteran Byron Bay resident, we were also treated to baked good left at our door each morning. Beach access (we walked each afternoon) was convenient. Town center was a bit of a walk, but perfect to burn off a few calories after dinner.
