This property was great for a one night stay but probably wouldn’t stay longer. In terms of value, for the price we paid this accomodation was very basic!! The property was dated and is in need of some repairs. The balcony door would not stay on the tracks and continually fell off so was unusable. Be aware, the car park space is very tight!

Had a ground floor unit. Yes it's an old building with a basic kitchen but the location is amazing. Fresh clean and comfy. Quiet enough to hear the ocean. Comfy beds and lovely pillows. Our 2br unit exceeded our expectations.

Fantastic location, right by the beach. Sadly disappointing inside. The size of the apartment was superb but it really needs an upgrade. The bathroom in particular smelled of years of urine and drains. It was clean but carpets were old and a little grubby. Curtains were hanging off the rail.

From the outside the building is terribly run down. My husband and I were very concerned about what we would find inside, to our surprise the unit we stayed in was clean and spacious, the beds were comfortable and the location was brilliant. However, in the main bedroom, neither bed side lamp worked, the blind in the second bedroom was broken, one of the screen doors wouldn’t lock and the carpet felt wet and sticky in some spots. Service wise, Stuart the maintenance guy was extremely helpful, without talking to him we wouldn’t have know we needed to go around the corner to Waves to check in, this was not communicated to us prior to our arrival and the printed sign stuck to a pillar with this info was too discreet. The first lady at reception we spoke to was actually unfriendly and rude when we went to ask her about leaving our car in the parking space prior to check in, even though Stuart had indicated there was plenty of room as previous guests had already checked out that morning. To our disappointment after letting her know this she just was still rude and unwelcoming. The second lady we spoke to at 2pm when we came back to collect the keys was very lovely and helpful.

Flexible, large accomodation & great staff
Best front desk staff, flexible. I had a last min panic as I forgot to book two spots (used to solo travel) the team said no problem - park at other tenants spot til they arrive tmrw. I’ll come back here for another stay. In addition to east parking, the property also was upgraded to fit us - no mention of this, just turned up to a bigger place with two rooms. Wonderful place and front desk. Highly recommend.

Very comfortable beachside holiday
Main Beach are 70’s style older apartments that are kept clean, neat and very presentable. All functional items are available with fresh clean linen, towels and kitchenware. Outlook to Byron Main beach outweighs everything and you are literally in the beach. Very comfortable stay.

I am very disappointed with this property for three major reasons. Your website stated there would be wifi and washing machine .. ultimately it’s been extremely inconvenient to me these two things are not available. Also the stairs and stair wells are very dirty .. need scrubbing and cracked snd old .. I would like to request a partial refund of the room cost fir this reason.

I liked that it backed straight onto the park where kids could pkay in tge playground and so closr to the beach. I hated the toilet it stunk the whole time of urine, old pipes. I had to cover my nose everytime i went in and avoid vomiting. It was clean but the smell could not go away no matter what you did.
