A super stay in a great house

Everything was as described and Jeannie supplied so much information and a welcome pack and was very helpful at every stage. We couldn't have asked for anything more and would recommend anyone to stay here. The coffee shop/deli opposite was fantastic with an irresistible deli counter. Byron Bay car hire was easy to use and also very helpful.

Fantastic location

Perfect stay for our family visiting Byron Bay for the first time. Grocer basically across the road and restaurants within walking distance. We were traveling with 2 kids and small dog - I would love to come back and spend longer at this property. House was well equipped including beach towels and very clean.

Great location, relaxing vibe

We loved our stay at Genie House. The place was big enough for our extended family group with lots of decks and places to chill out in. The dining table room was amazing. It was an easy 10 minute walk to Byron shops, across the road from the Bay Grocer and a short walk to The General Store for morning coffee. It felt like a home, with lots of cosy touches. Only issue was only having one bathroom, but it was very clean.

little gem

What a lovely surprise this house was! It is very well equipped, and presented beautifully with fresh flowers on arrival. The kitchen is well stocked with basics ( oil salt pepper etc) and equipment . It is listed as pet friendly and the fully enclosed deck off the bedrooms is ideal for keeping a small dog securely and safely outside. Having said that the larger yard is securely fenced also.The deck would also be excellent for small children. The 'green garage' is right across the road and does make pretty good coffee, cafe style food and some grocery items. Given the modest tariff this is an excellent value for money holiday rental. I would happily stay again and recommend.
