Leave it to the Aussies to create a place as cool, calm, and collected as The Byron at Byron Resort and Spa, an environmentally conscious enclave on the east coast of Australia.
EXPERIENCE
Between Byron Bay's Tallow Beach and the Byron Bay Golf Course, The Byron at Byron Resort and Spa is an environmentally sensitive retreat framed by 45 acres of subtropical rainforest and miles of pristine beaches. Walk the wooden boardwalks that connect the resort's buildings, and admire the tropical birds hiding in the lush greenery.
All 92 one-bedroom air-conditioned suites are spacious and modern, with king-size California beds that help you fall asleep as soon as your head hits the pillow. Start the day off with a complimentary yoga session on the beach, or relax by the 82 ft. infinity pool or poolside sauna. Indulge yourself at the day spa or stay fit Aussie-style with a game of tennis, or a workout in the fully equipped gym. If you're feeling really adventurous, head into nearby Byron Bay for whale-watching or kayaking with dolphins.
At the end of the day, sate that hunger you've worked up at the hotel's modern restaurant, featuring local produce and imaginative cocktails.
