Loved it!
We enjoyed a wonderful time at Gosamara Apartments. Warm and friendly welcome. Our apartment was clean and spacious. Walking distance to sweet cafes, delicious restaurants and the beautiful beach. We stayed 2 nights and can highly recommend it to everyone who is looking for a beautiful, quiet place in Byron Bay.

Sadly the description of the room online was totally different to the actual room. As I have severe food allergies I required a kitchen however the premises did not have a kitchen as advertised. There was only a third of a roll of toilet paper and upon asking for more I was told that normally clients would go and buy their own. Not enough soap or shampoo which I had to ask for - in the end they added more stock. Rooms are old and outdated compared to the way they look online but at least they are clean. Sadly I would not recommend staying there.

Thank you for you review however we would like to point out a few things that you may have forgotten. At no stage is it acceptable to act the way you did though out your stay. As mentioned we have a no party policy here and your actions where un-acceptable. On several occasions we had to warn you about your activities and at the end we told you to leave. You mentioned at the start you wanted a upgrade and we did offer it at a cost but did not want to go ahead with this. Unfortunately you would not welcome you back, but all the best in the future.

Great location. Close to shops and beach.
Pleasant accommodation, with full facilities. Nice warm spa, even in winter and pool temperature was not too cold to swim in. 5 min walk to the shops and Main beach and even quicker access to a beach right behind. Close enough to the action without being in a noisy/busy location. Only downside is the limited internet, but my understanding is this is a common issue throughout Byron Bay and not limited to Gosamara. Manager was always available and attended to our questions and requests promptly. He gave us great advice on what to do and where to eat.

Spacious, light-filled apartment
We stayed in a lovely, light, spacious, quiet 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom apartment. It was about a 5 minute walk into Byron Bay (or a little longer if we walked along the beach which was well worth the extra few minutes). The beds were comfortable and everything was very clean. Great value.

Amazing spot and perfect house
We had such a great time. We had everything we needed and the space was beautiful. The house is located a short (and very nice) walk away from the beach and a short stroll right into the heart of Byron. It’s pretty central but not noisy at all. The hosts were absolutely lovely and communication was easy! We were sad to leave but we will be making sure we stay here next time we come to Byron Bay!!

We booked Gosamara after our other accommodation fell through. It looked just like the pictures and was very comfortable. The living area was very spacious and had lots of room for our 1 year old to play. It was a short stroll to the Main Street and beach. We would book here again!!

A friendly and well managed apartment block.
My apartment was comfortable, with pleasing decor and provided everything that is required for a relaxing holiday. It was a short stroll to the beach and just two blocks from the shopping area. There a beautiful pool and barbecue area - perfect to relax by after sight seeing. Secure undercover parking provided.

Quiet apartment close to everything!
3 of us stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment, definitely has room for another person. We stayed during weekdays so it was very quiet, besides the generator that went on for a few hours during the day. Spacious, quite modern and clean, about 4 mins walk to the beach and 10-15 mins to the shops and restaurants. Basic needs such as towels, toiletries, teas and coffees is provided. Wouldn't mind coming back again.

Clean & pleasant multi level townhouse. Great for parent/teenager privacy or 3 couples as bedrooms & shower/toilet on each level. Good location 10-15mins walk to town & a short walk to the beach. Would be great if foxtel/Netflix was available but if you take a computer/sub I think you can plug into the tv. We would stay here again.
