ACCOMMODATION

The earlier you commit to the course, the easier it will be to find accommodation. Be aware that, although courses never run during school holidays, in the months of Oct-Nov and Feb-March it a bit more difficult to find accommodation for 3 consecutive weeks.

The closest areas to the course are Sunrise, Belongil Beach (by the beach) or, town, towards main beach (Shirley St, Lawson St areas).

There are 3 households in Sunrise beach, Byron Bay (walking distance from the course) who like to rent rooms short term to our students. If you'd like cheap accommodation (around $165/$200 p/w all inc.) and are happy to rent a fully furnished room in a local house, just write me an email and I willl email you back all the detail and contacts. Be aware that there are only 2 or 3 households doing that, so 'who first arrives first gets'.

If you would like to share a holiday accommodation with other students, we can put you in touch with each other, so you can organize on time a holiday rental.

If your choice is a self contained cabin or a caravan park, Byron Bay Tourist Village is located on Sunrise Boulevard, corner with Ewingsdale Rd. It is walking distance from the course & town buses stop outside their door.
The onsite amenities include a swimming pool, tennis court, internet (including wireless), cabins, full camper's kitchen, laundry and BBQ area.
