DETAILS

ELEMENTS OF BYRON 144 Bayshore Drive, Byron Bay, NSW; elementsofbyron.com.au Verdict: Great for a little barefoot luxury. Score: We rated: That pool. We could hang out there all day – and we did. We’d change: The absence of a shuttle service to town. It’s not a huge trip, but just one morning and one late afternoon option would be a handy addition. Notes: We paid $410 per night for a Botanica Villa.
