A Perfect Stay - San Juan Surfers Cottage

Located in the heart of town, San Juan Surfers Cottage was one of the first market gardener homes in Byron Bay. This lovingly restored, 2 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom cottage now welcomes guests to relax, unwind and enjoy all that Byron Bay has to offer.

Inside, the original teak floorboards and rough-sawn timber wall panels create a warm rustic ambience. After a day enjoying the outdoors, settle into the living room's plush sofa or armchair and enjoy the afternoon sunshine, filtered by the palms in the sub-tropical garden. For those who enjoy a casual movie night, the space is completed by a Smart TV with complimentary Netflix and unlimited WiFi.

The cottage sleeps up to 4 persons comfortably. There is a queen bed in the main bedroom and two single beds in the second bedroom, which can be converted to a king ensemble on request. The shared bathroom is light and bright with a modern, freestanding tub and rain shower. The wooden surfboard vanity and floor-to-ceiling subway tiles create a unique style, making this the perfect place to relax and enjoy a bubble bath or a good book.

The modern kitchen features gorgeous natural wood bench tops, a Nespresso machine, filtered water and all the equipment you need to prepare healthy snacks for yourself if you choose to dine in. French doors connect the dining room to a spacious back deck overlooking the fully fenced yard. Relax in one of the outdoor seating areas and enjoy the sea breezes while children and pets play freely in the fully fenced, secure yard.

Leave the car at home and wander down to Main Beach, or take your time and explore Byron's famous designer boutiques - including the nearby 'Jonson Lane' retail precinct - as well as the town's many cafes, restaurants and bars.

You'll feel right at home upon entering San Juan's inviting living space.

Teak floorboards and rough sawn timber wall panels give the living space a warm, rustic feel that is carried throughout the cottage.

Bathing
After a long day of surfing, shopping, and exploring Byron Bay, is there anything more relaxing than an indulgent bubble bath? The bathroom features a deep, freestanding tub and, if you're not in the mood for a relaxing soak, there is a separate modern rain shower encased by glass. San Juan's bathroom is flooded with natural light and you'll love the ample space provided by the wooden surfboard-shaped vanity countertop and generous shelving behind the mirror. Getting ready is a breeze in here!

Bathroom configuration:
- Bathroom 1: Freestanding bath, shower, toilet
- Separate toilet and private shower in laundry area

Outdoor Dining & Entertaining:
Relax and unwind on the spacious, wrap-around veranda overlooking the garden. Located just off the dining room through sliding glass doors, the deck provides a welcoming space to entertain a few friends, with ample dining and seating space. Simply kick off your shoes, nestle into a hammock, and let the cool sea breezes soothe your senses.

Parking
There is off-street parking for 2 cars.

Location
Nestled away just off Byron Bay's main street, San Juan Surfers Cottage is minutes from all the town's top attractions.

Perfect position
Nestled away in the hub of Byron this place is a wonderful hideaway if you want to be able to walk to restaurants shops and the beach but then retreat away from the hustle and bustle. The lane way behind the properly can get busy during the week if there is work going on, but it was still wonderfully private and the kitchen is well equiped, and a wonderful back yard for our puppy to play in. Large comfy sofa to watch movies on and games in the cupboard for those rainy days! I lovely reading area nestled out the back makes you feel like you are in Bali. Very happy, will come again. Thanks!

Relaxing cottage
My husband and I and our two puppies spent the long weekend here. The place had everything we needed and a relaxing bath as well. It was close to town and fully fenced so our puppies could play outside safely. It is a quaint cottage with all the comforts. We loved our stay and will be back <3

Character filled cottage neighbouring noisey construction site
We loved the house, which is exactly as described- a surfers cottage, short walk to town and beach, and yard for the dogs. Unfortunately we were not told that the house neighbours the Johnson Lane development site at which construction with explosive power tools was underway each day of our stay. Our stay was discounted due to the disruption, but only after we spent time on our holiday contacting the property manager to raise the issue, and after we provided photos of property access being restricted etc.

Central and cute
Loved the Cottage. Just what we needed so close to town and beaches. We liked that it is tucked away from main road so no traffic noise. Spacious backyard was a plus.
