From the moment we arrived we knew we had chosen well. Walking upto reception you get this overwhelming sense of mystic calmness and tranquil soul calming vibes. Checking into our cottage we were equally impressed to see the large amethyst geode adorning our private balcony with breathtaking views across the hillside, on offer to ya also was a hammock and a hot tub nestled into the hills. Our cottage was well equipped and again beautifully presented. Dealing with the hotel manager was a delight. He offered us reccomendations of places to check out that May suit us. My only regret was that we couldn’t stay longer. I highly recommend this magical little getaway! Worth every penny!

Hard to find

The room was clean and comfortable and the unit was located in a natural environment but the accommodation was well away from the coast and difficult to find especially after dark.
The room cost was acceptable but when expected to add further $50 for breakfast for 2,we had to decline,.as a continental style breakfast was all we were looking for...

Perfect Romantic Getaway

From check in to check out our stay was perfect. I chose the King Studio Suite with Spa which was the perfect choice for us as it was away from the main house so very private but overlooking the picturesque property. We loved the outdoor jacuzzi for sunset and starry drinks and it was right near our room which was even more perfect. We also took advantage of the breakfast delivered to our room. $12 uber to town also meant we could enjoy the restaurant and night life of Byron! Can’t recommend enough.

Fantastic getaway!

The whole retreat is spectacular! The spas out on the property are fabulous to take a soak in after a long day. I loved the personally cooked breakfasts with an amazing view of the property. Super close to Byron town but it feels like you’re miles away as its so quiet.
We stayed in Villa 1 and it was beautiful my only issue was our garden had no fence at the front and it was next to the car park so people would walk straight in front of your room whilst you were lying in bed

The Perfect Long Weekend Getaway

We stayed at Cape Byron Retreat for the long weekend earlier in the year and it was exactly what we needed to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

I would highly recommend this stay for couples wanting a romantic night away or anyone wanting some time out to relax and refresh.

We cannot wait to do it all again.
