This studio was really well set up for our overnight stay, with great amenities and kitchen gear and supplies. We loved the bathroom and made full use of the lovely outside bath. Paula was a great host and the studio was sufficiently central that we were able to walk everywhere.
The flat was architecturally beautiful. Amazing communication with Paula. She even let me know about the farmers market! Clean beautiful place to stay. I would stay again!

Paula runs a great spot. It’s a quiet, modern and well appointed studio, away from the hustle of Byron yet close enough for a very short walk to enjoy the hospo and vibe and of course, the beach. We were golfing so only a short drive to Byron Bay GC. A few treats on arrival, constant suggestions of things to do in the area, a great host.
We really enjoyed this stay. The out door bath was very cool and not very high ceilings made if fell very roomy plus a very comfortable bed. The location was also a major plus with short walk into town and market. Thanks Paula
This property is exactly as described. It is lovely and peaceful with everything that you need. Paula is an attentive host who had suggestions of things to do and was available whenever we had a query. The location is great - it is a short walk to the beach, the centre of town and all the restaurants.
The place was amazing me and my partner enjoyed sooo much bath tub was awesome! Also when in the bathroom it felt like you were in nature so pretty ! Paula was so easy to contact and so helpful in so many ways i would highly recommend this to anyone and again thank-you paupa
This is a gorgeous private studio with lovely tropical courtyard. Probably the most beautiful bathroom view you could wish for. Very well appointed with quality fittings and accessories. Nice welcoming touches of flowers and snacks etc.
Great facilities, amazing outdoor area and bath, owner provided everything we needed. We had an awesome timing chilling at the studio. The town centre and main Beach were a short stroll away. Only improvement I could suggest was the possibility of a late check out.
Staying at Paula’s little hideaway was an absolute pleasure. The little studio had everything you need from the comfy cosy bed, well equipped kitchen, beautiful bathroom to the little courtyard.
Paula is the most generous of hosts who goes out of her way to make you feel welcome and makes sure you have everything you need. If we come back to Byron in the future our first choice will be back at this gorgeous little pad.
Couldn’t recommend this little hideaway enough.
Beautiful studio. Stones throw from the shops. Paula was an amazing host. Went out of her way to make us feel comfortable and giving us lots of information on places to eat, shop and visit. Will be back.
From the time of booking months prior to our vacation to after we checked out, Paula was the most incredible host. The award winning architecturally designed unit is private and beautiful. Everything we needed for a weeks stay was included, and it was freshened up and new towels provided every 3 days.
The outside bathtub was bliss after a day on the beach and in the surf.
Very comfortable, very quiet, very private.
Would recommend 100%
We loved our stay here! Paula was an amazing host, with lots of local info and always answered messages quickly.The space was perfect, close to the busyness of Byron Bay, but far enough away to be a quiet little sanctuary. The bed was very comfortable, and you were able to darken the room for a sleep in. The space is styli and has everything you need. It might be a studio, but it is so roomy.A highlight for us was the beautiful bathroom and bath, just gorgeous.We also loved the bird sounds and to watch them outside the accomodation.We can't recommend this little spot, in Byron, enough!
Our stay was extremely enjoyable with nothing stressful about the entire experience.
The location of the property is perfect, far enough away that it was extremely quiet but close enough that anywhere we needed to go around Byron was only a short walk away.
With a comfy bed a nice shower and the overall vibe of the studio apartment had a free but private feel to it surrounded by nature.
Other than the bin under the sink being a little bit dirty and the door locks being slightly loose (nothing to major)
I would highly recommended this to any couple wanting a beautiful weekend away in Byron
Honestly, I could talk all day about our experience at this cute little oasis.
Absolutely incredible. A Byron & Bali-esque paradise. We went for our anniversary & it was pure perfection. So romantic, elegant, unique & special.
This would also be an amazing location for a personal photoshoot, with the encapsulating lighting in the glass bathroom, there’s mini reflective rainbows everywhere 😍 & outdoor tub.
Perfect distance from the main hub of Byron whilst also super quiet for a peaceful sleep.
Could not recommend this place enough.
We have just had the most amazing week at Byron Bay staying in this gorgeous studio. The property is so close to the town centre and beaches so we didn’t need to use our car but just a hop skip and a jump to the many bike tracks. The space was so private and had everything we could have needed for our stay. The bathroom and outdoor bath area was so beautiful and we referred to it as our Garden of Eden. Paula was the most wonderful host and went out of her way to ensure our stay was special. I can’t recommend this property highly enough and we can’t wait to stay there again.

We went back to Byron for our 20 year anniversary, even though it rained all weekend we really enjoyed our stay the unit was cosy and self contained and most of all very private, it was also very close to everything we required. 10/10
Every little touch has been thought of. From milk and minties in the fridge to dehumidifiers, fruit & parking. Wonderful. Highly recommend.

I love introducing people to our friendly, colourful community and the unique lifestyle that makes this region so special.
