Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
Byron Bay is one of Australia's most popular holiday destinations. Along with the beach lifestyle and associated activities, a day trip to the hinterland, a drive along the coast road, or a meal out any of the numerous local restaurants can make for a great holiday. Known for its alternative lifestyle, markets, and regular festivals, Byron Bay can give you an active holiday or a very quiet one, sitting on the deck of our house or soaking in the spa.
Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules
As our house is part of a resort, there are a few standard resort rules that apply. Should you stay, you will check-in as a regular guest, have access to all the resort facilities, and be able to ask the reception staff for assistance like any other guest. You will be billed ONLY for the end-of-week cleaning so that our next guests enter the property as you found it.
