Besakih is a tropical Balinese styled apartment with a very large private garden, conveniently located in a very quiet peaceful position, 100 metres from the new bus transit centre, 150 mtr stroll from Byron's CBD and 150 mtr to Main Beach (the only beach patrolled by Byron Surf Club).

Inside, antique teak wood and rattan Indonesian furniture, coupled with beautiful polished bamboo timber floors, give the apartment a welcoming Balinese feel. There are two bedrooms. The main has a queen bed whilst the second sleeps two in singles. * please note that with prior notice the 2 single beds can be made into a king bed.*
Both bedrooms overlook the private enclosed garden.

Besakih is completely self contained with laundry and complete kitchen.

The apartment has a very large private tropical garden, with an outdoor covered dining area. Large stone statues throughout the garden create a wonderful tropical atmosphere. The garden is secure making it a great place for young children to play and pets to be secure.

Overall, Besakih offers guests a beautifully furnished private garden apartment in a fabulous location and represents outstanding value for money!

LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION

Besakih's location has so much going for it! The apartment is in a quiet, tucked away position in town, with no through traffic. Yet we have absolutely everything right on our door step, the beach, shops, famous Markets and farmers markets ,restaurants, pubs and cinemas.

A 100m walk from Besakih and you are at Main Beach and the Byron Bay Surf Club, the only patrolled beach in Byron. This is the most sheltered beach in Byron . There is also a public swimming pool at the Main Beach carpark.

Besakih is directly opposite the site of the famous Byron Markets held on the 1st Sunday of every month, and Every Thursday a Farmers Market sells fresh local organic produce from the site, and is a great place to source some great local fruit,vegies and locally made food.

SO MANY THINGS TO DO, SO LITTLE TIME

The Main Beach of Byron is a popular spot for walkers. Many people walk to The Pass and back, enjoying the fantastic scenery and maybe stopping for breakfast at Clarkes Beach Cafe. A popular walk with locals is doing The Lighthouse walk. This popular walk starts at Main Beach and travels to The Pass, through Palm Valley onto Wategos Beach and continues up to The Lighthouse.

Of course the beach is fantastic! Because it is North facing there is a fabulous view back across the mountains that you could never get tired of. It is common to have dolphins swim in the bay close to shore, they will often surf the waves with swimmers and board riders. Most surf lesson guarantee you will stand on your board or your money back!

The Pass is a lovely beach and it sometimes becomes a tidal lagoon, which is great fun for the kids. People sometimes fish in the lagoon but it is not there all year round. There are lots of beautiful Pandanus trees at The Pass and nice BBQ areas.

I have a 3 bedroom villa at Belongil beach and I also
have a 2 bedroom villa at Belongil Beach so if you
would like information about either of these properties then please call me on 0416263298

Great
Everything was fine with no issues - excellent location opposite the farmers market and really close walk to town and beaches.Apartment was well equipped with everything we needed.Worth noting that there is a construction site over the fence which wasn’t mentioned when we booked so we had a couple of early mornings being woken up by diggers, and materials being delivered. No fault of the owners but could have been mentioned as a courtesy.

The apartment was ideal for our small group (2 x couples). It was great to be so close to the town and the beach, and a particularly easy walk to the bus terminal. Beds were comfy, shower was great, living area a good size and a very nice shady garden. Happy Easter!

We wish we had booked 10 days. What a beautiful place to land. The unit is as beautiful as the pictures. It's super quiet, super convenient, a farmers market across the street, so close to the beach and amenities. The garden is bliss. I could go on.

I have been holiday letting my beautiful properties for over 13 years. I love my hometown with a passion and love sharing it with holiday guests. It is a wonderful town with stunning scenery and lots of great things to do and see.

Why they chose this property

Besakih has it all.! Located close to the centre of town, which makes it an idea place to stay if you fly in and don't want the hassle of renting a car as you can walk everywhere, yet it is in a quiet, peaceful location. Its greatest asset is its huge lush garden ,with outdoor covered dining Bale, where you can while away the afternoon with a bottle of champagne and some great food.

What makes this property unique

Its central location, its quiet peaceful location, its beautiful lush gardens, its super comfy beds.!
