Beachfront Bliss in Byron
Pros:

I stayed here with my parents who were visiting from Ireland. We had a top floor apartment with sea views, which was absolutely stunning. The apartment was spotless & beds were extremely comfortable. It is well equipped for cooking also. The location is fantastic, easy access to the beach and walking distance to all the local amenities. Check-in was seamless and there was parking for one car available, which saved us a lot of stress.
It was a perfect place to stay. We would definitely recommend it!

Cons:

Very minor issues - The shower is positioned extremely low. We are not a tall family but found ourselves bending down to shower.
There are some signs of aging, the sliding door to the balcony was difficult to open/close etc.

Dissapointed
Pros:

The inside is VERY tatty and dated, cracked shower, not up to the standard of any other location we stayed in, thus poor review and not worth the money

Great time, value for money.
Pros:

Great location, amazing views

Cons:

Car parking spot for apartment 24 was very tight to get into. Had an overgrown plant infront of the brick pillars of the parking spot, made it very hard to see to park the car without damaging car
