This is my favoured place to stay when staying in Byron. The reason is that it is only a few yards (on the other side of the beachfront road) from the most beautiful beach in the area, Tallow beach, with miles of beautiful bathing and walking. The price is low, too.

Basically its a standard 1960s or 1970s concrete-block motel that the owners have done all they can, short of rebuilding, to bring up to a "hotel' standard. So it shows its history in the rather dark rooms, but this is reflected in the low price. And if you are going to be out at the beach or in town all the time, it doesnt matter. The owners encourage a quiet clientele which I'm very happy with too. There is a lovely litte pool and garden.

Its a good idea to have a car as its a bit of a way out of town (though Suffolk Park has some local - and basic - facilities).

The positives: Private, quiet, low cost, beautiful beach on doorstep.

The Tallow Beach Motel is 15 mins by cab from Byron Bay. It is a small motel with aprox 12 rooms. Some rooms sleep 3 and there are also single rooms available. The rooms are all very clean & have a fridge, toaster and basic cooking utensils. Some have air con units , those that don't have ceiling fans. The decor may be slightly old fashioned but the shower is good and the beds comfortable. There is a lovely warm swimming pool set in the tropical garden and Tallow Beach is just across the quiet road. It is the perfect place to stay on a budget. It is quiet during the day and night but easy to get into Byron by cab. The transfer bus at the airport drops you at the door for about 15 dollars ( Australian ). The burger joint at the nearby shops does the best organic burgers and has veggie options too. There is also a small supermarket and pub all about a 10 min walk. It is a very friendly relaxed place to stay. I have stayed there twice and will definitely stay there again when back in... more
