Crystalbrook Byron

As someone who has worked in luxury hotels and hospitality for over a decade, I can confidently say Crystalbrook Byron is exceptional. The entire experience from pre-arrival communications to our check-out and eventual departure was flawless. The resort facilities (even whilst undergoing refurbishment), the rooms, the food and the staff are all worthy of credit. We stayed for our anniversary with our 5YO and newborn in tow and loved that everything we needed could be found within the resort. We loved wandering the rainforest boardwalks, swimming in the pool, playing tennis, snacking on the verandah and enjoying the ever evolving treetops from our screened sunrooms within our family suite. The rooms are large, sectioned, clean, reasonably private and have ample space and kitchen facilities for a short stay. The staff kindly took our 5YO on a buggy ride to their onsite bee hives on check-out, and allowed full access the resort facilities pre and post check-out. I would highly recommend to everyone and anyone looking for a relaxing retreat. We can’t thank you enough for a wonderful weekend reset. My only note to those booking the family treetop suite is that ours was upstairs, so pram and roller luggage bag access proved challenging (though staff offered assistance).

Byron Bay

Government-run holiday park at the foot of Cape Byron Lighthouse, where the sunrise walk starts at your doorstep. Powered sites, cabins, and straightforward facilities at prices that make sense for Byron. Wategos Beach is a short stroll down the headland.
