We love the fact that we can be so close to all the action of Byron Bay town - the restaurants and shops - as well as the iconic beach, but we also love being able to escape back to the property to relax, unwind and just chill. We really enjoy having the best of both worlds when we stay at The Lily Pad.
Wake up and hear the birds. Make a cuppa and sit on the north facing deck to watch the sun peep over the trees. Explore the gardens and take a moment to just breathe. Grab your swimmers and head to the beach, or throw on your walking shoes for the pilgrimage to Cape Byron Lighthouse. Shop at the Farmer's Market and cook up a storm in the fully-equipped "cook's" kitchen at The Lily Pad.
And if you really need to check email or work remotely, there's free wi-fi and a nice big antique teak table in the Studio which makes for a pretty scenic office.
When we're there, we love to use the outdoor shower, custom-built with a clever timber slatted privacy screen. With hot and cold water, pebble floor and views to the trees and sky above, it's the perfect place to wash away the cares of the world.
Here's what some of our guests have to say...
