Great location, relaxing vibe

We loved our stay at Genie House. The place was big enough for our extended family group with lots of decks and places to chill out in. The dining table room was amazing. It was an easy 10 minute walk to Byron shops, across the road from the Bay Grocer and a short walk to The General Store for morning coffee. It felt like a home, with lots of cosy touches. Only issue was only having one bathroom, but it was very clean.

Road trip to paradise

We were pleasantly surprised at the location of the house. Just a short walk to the Main Street and all the eateries and boutiques. The house itself is beautiful with gorgeous furnishings and decor in a lush tropical setting with visits from the birds every morning. Our dog was well looked after too with bowls. Only draw back was the beds were not very cozy and we all had to sleep with the AC on in our rooms and the bins hadn’t been taken out so after 5 nights it was very full! Each room had its own tv which was good as were a family of myself and my three adult kids all in their 30’s. The lounge room had a lovely corner leather couch with plenty of for all of us. Overall we absolutely loved our stay!

A much needed relaxing getaway from our busy professional daily lifestyles. An enormous recommendation for Genie House, was everything, plus more - spacious, well appointed with all amenities, cosy and warm with the wood fire, comfy sofas and beds, easy to use kitchen and laundry. Our third trip back to Byron and Genie House is the best, also perfect location. Wonderful hosts. Big thanks to owners Jeannie and Jim. Looking forward to our next escape away to Genie House.

Everything was as described and Jeannie supplied so much information and a welcome pack and was very helpful at every stage. We couldn't have asked for anything more and would recommend anyone to stay here. The coffee shop/deli opposite was fantastic with an irresistible deli counter. Byron Bay car hire was easy to use and also very helpful.
