Stunning location, well appointed and lovely “feel” on the first level on the deck up amongst the trees. Very relaxing with close access to Wategos Beach and lighthouse trail.

Loved that it was walking distance to the lighthouse and there was a beach close by. When you hop in the car it was always 7 minutes to get v to where we needed. There was plenty of space inside and out for our family. The furniture was comfortable.

“Great, would come back.”
Location was good, away from the hustle and bustle of the town. We got our steps in going up and down the driveway and down to the beach and back.

“Beach house feel, very clean & compfy. Just be prepared to park on road due to extremely steep driveway.”
Location & view, just stunning. Cute, clean & super compfy beds. Throw blankets in winter are a nice touch.

“Super”
Beautifull old school charm a stroll to the beach, far enough out of town and the full-on hustle and bustle but still within reach. Hosts were very accommodating great people.

“Great location for a relaxing break”
We loved our stay at Wategos Beach Shack. Sasha’s communication was excellent. The location was amazing and loved being out of the hustle and bustle of the centre of busy Byron Bay. Beautiful views and loved the thoughtful little extra’s provided throughout. Handy to all beaches and sightseeing.
