Discovery Parks - Byron Bay
I would have liked a communal lounge area for Adults. This seems to be missing from the facilities. Scheduled Yoga class on Thursday didn't happen. Reception confirmed that it was on but next day it wasn't. Guests needed to be notified. Many thanks, Edward

Do not book the Studio room! Upgrade to the Villa or don’t stay here. The Studio rooms are barely bigger than a prison cell and are nowhere near 5 star hotel quality. The property is neat and the staff are so nice. Just don’t book the Studio rooms.
