The location of this hotel is superb, literally seconds from the beach. However, the prices, even off-season, were very high. This was the most expensive place on our Aus trip, but not necessarily the best. Our reason for booking is that many other places would not accept a booking for less than 3 or 4 days for some reason. The... more

I have just stayed at Waves Byron Bay with 3 girlfriends for a 'girls weekend' away. We found Waves to be great! A fabulous location - one block back from the beach and two small blocks from the main street of Byron, where all the shops, cafes and pubs,etc are. Our room was lovely - we stayed in the penthouse... more

Not worth $350 per night... the only good thing was the location and the bathroom. Uncomfortable bed and the room smelt like bad food odour. Scummy "free" coffee/juice/muffin buffet in the morning which was a waste of time. more

We decided to go for the 'penthouse' experience, and paid in-advance what we thought was a lot for accommodation in an Australian regional coastal town - albeit a very well known one (A$3500 for seven nights off-peak season). Waves has an excellent location in Byron Bay. It is not beach-front, but it is close. It is a very short walk... more

Just enough.

I can't say I liked or disliked Waves. It was ok. Rooms are a good size, clean and quite fresh. I wasn't so keen on the black bathroom. I thought it didn't match the rest of the room. And black disguises everything. Was it clean? I can't say it was for sure. It's a normal hotel in a nice spot! more

Very happy!

We stayed at Waves for 5 nights in October and it was excellent. The property is well maintained and secure, the rooms are spacious and clean. The location of this property is perfect, within walking distance from everything (beach, restaurants, city centre etc). We arrived one hour earlier, but our room was ready and we checked in straight away (another... more

We booked this hotel on arrival. There is no restaurants or pool so if you are looking facilities this would not be the place to stay. However, the hotel rooms are lovely and very spacious, there is complimentary fruit, muffins and coffee in the morning, the staff are very friendly, laundry is 15aussie dollars for a black bag, it is... more

This is a small, 20-unit hotel. Room very spacious, clean, comfortable. AC good. Location wonderful, very close to beach and walking distance to everything. Staff wonderful. My only complaint was that the internet was a bit pricy. Also, I did get some spider bites one night in bed. I don't really blame the hotel as I'm sure spiders can get... more
