The cabin was just lovely, very clean and quiet. The grounds were generally well kept with lots of trees and shade. A small detail was the kitchen utensils could use upgrading. For example there was not a set of tongs.
The reception staff were welcoming and very helpful.
The laundry had a few washing/dryer machines that were out of order? This did not impact my ability to do washing but it could at a busier time.
I found the reception staff very helpful and pleasant. My cabin was very spacious, light and airy. it was a short drive into Byron Bay shops and the beach was beautiful. I am travelling solo so haven't checked the other amenities. I would certainly come again.

Perfect area not too busy, felt easy and safe didn’t have to worry about the kids running around. Could have a bar a bistro by pool area though
Pretty good place, we enjoyed our stay. The only drawback is that it’s not easy to get around if you don’t have a car. The place is very nice and big with lots to do in it, it even has a lake inside of it and a cafe right outside. Overall, very nice just pay in mind you’ll struggle a bit without a car.
Our first visit and the cabins are exceptional. The convenience of accessing the water park, giant pillow plus the option of 2 pools is great. When it rained just popped back to the cabin for a while and then back to the water park when weather cleared. Holiday programme for kids is great. Facilities are immaculate. Thank you
I stayed in one of the "tiny house" cabins, I'd like to suggest a small shelf above the soap etc.bottles next to the sink for makeup or shaving gear etc. everything else ...perfect.
First time at a Discovery Park, and will certainly be returning and trying other Discovery locations. Certainly exceeded our expectations with wonderful service and the cabin was very spacious and has everything we needed.
We stayed here for 3 nights primarily because it was the cheapest / most affordable option for us in/near Byron Bay. The staff on reception were lovely as were the maintenance lads that we spoke to around the site. The 2 x pool areas and the camp kitchen were also clean and tidy (although sun loungers could have done with a clean).
We booked to stay in an economy cabin and really wished we hadn’t. The cabin was clearly old and maintenance was needed. Curtains were stained, paint peeling off in some areas, main door didn’t seem to connect properly before locking meaning we didn’t feel that our luggage was particularly safe. The cabin definitely needed an overhaul and updating.
The main issue for us was the fact 5 of the 6 washing machines were out of order and having read reviews on arrival from a few weeks prior, this had been the case for sometime. Given we had booked this accommodation because we needed laundry facilities, this was really disappointing and inconvenienced us massively. We raised it with reception staff who advised they had no solution to offer (waiting on parts) except to suggest we travel to North Byron laundromat. The park shouldn’t offer amenities if not available on a long term basis or at least have informed us after booking & given us the option of cancelling our booking. I have emailed a complaint but not heard anything back as yet.
Location wise - it’s a good 2.5km walk to Byron Bay along a very busy highway.
When we arrived at the reception office, we were told that they had upgraded us to a lake view cabin which we didn’t expect and so that was so kind of them to do so. The staff were very friendly and professional. We highly recommend this holiday park and we would definitely use them again when we get back to Byron.
