About this property

White Haven Byron Bay - Walk to town and beautiful belongil beach

This character home was constructed somewhere around the early 1900’s and was one of the early cottages of the Byron bay village.

A day in the life of "White Haven" consists of Leaving your car in the driveway and taking advantage of the superb location- 350m walk to shops/cafes/restaurants and 200m stroll to the beach.

Take advantage of this property location with a stroll along the beautiful Belongil beach or spend a day just relaxing on one of the two balconies with a book or dining and spending time with the family.

Byron bay has so much to offer from great dining, glorious ocean beaches, snorkelling, surfing and other aquatic activities, great walking trails and of course the famous cape Byron.

We do not accept hens and bucks parties groups or groups looking to party at the property.

The property can also be conveniently accessed from the Gold coast and Ballina Airports without the need for a car as there is a bus stop located out the front of the house. The likes of Sky bus will drop you at the front door.

Fabulous location
Great house. Lovely style and perfect for a family with teenagers :-) The location is PERFECT, so central that you can leave your car at the property. The street is busy but it's not loud at all in the house. The verandah is divine, it stays so beautifully cool on hot days.

Nice house and accomodation for 7 people
Lovely house but too close to main road for us. Locking system a bit annoying because you need to use a key at the back to lock yourself in which means that anyone staying out the back cannot get access without a key. Only one key provided. Also communication on late checkout not clear. It is a very nice beach house though.

The perfect place to relax and unwind after a busy day!
We stayed at White Haven for 6 nights, while shooting a fashion campaign in Byron Bay. It was the perfect location to come back to at the end of a long day to chill out and relax. It had everything we needed, two fridges, lots of quality crockery and cutlery, comfy beds and two out door areas where we could hang out and enjoy a wine and a beer. The location is great, and it's only a short walk into town. It offers plenty of off street parking.

36 Shirley street Byron Bay
Arrived at property late(after 6) Driver rang owners whose advised he would turn off alarm ( wasn’t told there was one) House smelt very musty,ceiling fans were all very dirty ( mentioned it to owner , he said he would get cleaners to clean). Lounge is stained and whilst sitting on lounge we were all getting itchy either from floor mat or lounge. Couldn’t get tvs to work so another call to owner which took two hours to fix.one in bungalow not working . Couldn’t turn off air con in bungalow had to climb up and manually turn off. It rained and the aircon in my room in bungalow leaked onto my bed ,my iPad and table,another msg to owner who just said it sounded like a condensation drain blockage. So had to sleep on one side of bed, floors dirty under beds. So much for deep cleaning due to covid! Generally up keep good but when we paid $5000 for 4 night ( 6 of us) not good .wouldn’t recommend to anyone . Gardens overgrown guttering needs cleaning , laundry bags full of dirty laundry sitting on verandah for a few days whilst we were there and no one stayed the week before us . We enjoyed location. Close to everything have photos of lounge

Host with the most
We really enjoyed our stay at White Haven. Everything was as expected but the thing that blew us away was the hosts flexibility… we rescheduled this trip 4 times due to Covid and the hosts were very accomodating. They also were extremely flexible on check in and check out times to suit our flights. Location was perfect. Look forward to staying again.

Family holiday
The John-Paul and Lisa were absolutely wonderful! We stayed for 7 days with a large family of 12. The house was spacious with a number of spaces to chill out in and everyone was comfortable with there own bedrooms and plenty of bathrooms, so no waiting on showers etc. We loved the outside deck area with a huge table where everyone could sit together. The location was fantastic- just a short walk to the beach and shops! I would highly recommend!

Beautiful house but noisy
We had a beautiful stay in a beautiful house, big enough for a big family. The owner was responding very quickly. The house is comfortable and close to the beach. The major problem is the road which is very noisy day and night ! We paid a lot and we were expecting a perfect house. Some things are a bit old. (AC in one bedroom and in the bungalow which doesn’t work in one bedroom, a door hard to open, no bathroom for the baby…)

Property was as promoted and I found the hosts very helpful and courteous. Location was great apart from being on a busy road. Only very small downside was lack of regular consumables for an extended stay such as toilet paper, dishwashing liquid, gas in gas bottle, washing machine powder etc. However, I would recommend this property and the hosts

Close to everything
We had a lovely stay and it was a great base for our extended family for a wedding weekend. It’s close to town and you won’t have to worry about parking as you can walk. It is on a busy road but isn’t too loud inside the house. Lots of indoor and outdoor space for the group although with Byron on our doorstep we didn’t spend too much time there.

About the host

Hosted by Jon-Paul and Lisa

Host profile image
We are family couple who love nothing more than spending time in the beautiful Byron bay when its not being occupied by you! We come from a large family and enjoy get together's with the whole family at the house. The close proximity means that kids can easily walk to the beach and town for meals out or relaxing beach days.

Why they chose this property

Why go on holiday and have to get in a car to go everywhere? White haven byron bay is a short stroll walking distance to the beautiful Belongil beach, Byron’s Jonson street and the iconic beach hotel. There is enough off street parking for 5 cars and plenty of room to accomodate 12 guests.

What makes this property unique

There are 6 bed rooms and a wrap around deck to two sides of the house that links the kitchen and dining areas. The house maintains its early 1900s features and rustic charm giving you that quintessential feel of the old original Beach house.
