Harkaway - charming cottage in central Byron Bay

We loved the location and the well sorted home, Comfy beds and linen, all toiletries provided.

A dedicated parking spot as out car was too big. Broken vacuum and broken fan in third bedroom as was a very hot room

It was great that we didn't need to go to another location to pick up keys. The front Varanda of the house is fantastic as an outdoor space. we loved that there was everything in the kitchen that we could need especially that we were cooking all our own meals. The location is fantastic and close to everything, easy walk to shops and nightlife. The front garden was beautiful and a lovely view to start the day. We loved that there were two bathrooms and two main bedrooms great for grandparents and parents with kids, or multiple families.

The bathrooms were both dirty and had mold in the showers. Once 8pm came there is no suitable outdoor area to use in the evenings. The back yard furniture was dirty and really unusable and definitely not suitable to eat in that area. There was no outdoor shower to was off the sand, which meant the showers were full of sand each day. It was disappointing that there was only one towel per person and one set of sheets especially with a 12 day stay we were trying to wash and dry towels and sheets to that they could be clean. The dryer takes a very long time, and a full load of towels is not possible, so multihull uses were needed. Neither of the AC worked and would have been very appreciated with the extreme heat. The lights in the kitchen were not all working which made it hard to have the fan on and the lights.

property was extremely well equipped.

floors not very clean, carpet in bedroom stained
