Please could you give your personal recommendations for accommodation for two adults (NOT a backpacker hostel) in or near Byron Bay for around $150 per night?
Romantic or eclectic style would be great.
Many thanks

I should also mention that I have already done a web search and have been totally overwhelmed by the huge number of accommodation options in the area, so I hope to get personal recommendations on here instead.
Also eclectic may not be the right word to use – I don’t like modern, hip and trendy type places, especially big unit type resorts. I prefer quaint, unusual or unique cottages or B&B’s.
Many thanks

| bettyfooboo18:03 UTC29 Apr 2007 | Thanks ontheroadtonowhere -
The Cape looks good.
Why do you like it? Have you stayed there a lot?

| clare_gil18:17 UTC29 Apr 2007 | Is that rent by the room or for the house?

| ontheroadtonowhere18:24 UTC29 Apr 2007 | Betty I haven't stayed there but it has been recommended on here before.
I'm a local so don't need to stay anywhere but the Clarkes Beach version seem to be in a great spot (for mid range) plus the photos look good!

No complaints, especially for the price

| bettyfooboo10:29 UTC30 Apr 2007 | The Green Mango Hideaway in the Byron Hinterland looks very nice.....................anyone have any feedback on it?
| 8 |
| ontheroadtonowhere18:31 UTC30 Apr 2007 | In short - No. The website looks OK.
Its quite a way out of Byron tho so it depends on what you are wanting to do.....too far from the beach for my liking.

| bettyfooboo20:02 UTC30 Apr 2007 | When I last went to Byron Bay in 1993 it was a small sleepy town with (from what I can remember) limited accommodation.
My head is now spinning from the absolute overload of accommodation options; my god there seems to be more there than in Sydney, whats more most of them appear to be more expensive than Sydney.
ontheroadtonowhere - You say No for The Green Mango - why? Is it not as good as it looks on the website?
I don't mind if it is away from the beach, the more peace and quite the better for my sanity.

| ontheroadtonowhere06:15 UTC01 May 2007 | Betty - I didnt mean "no" point blank I just meant no (for me) for the location as I like the beach.
It looks fine on the site but I don't know anything about it and have not heard any reports. You are right though - there's a lot to choose from- and all the ads and disads that come with loads of choice!

I think I am going to need another holiday, to recover from the stress of booking this one!
