Great location and secure.The shower would completely flood the bathroom floor and into and across the floor of the bedroom…..which we had to use all our beach towels and some to soak up water…..what is super disappointing is this is already mentioned in previous reviews and not yet fixed….I would hate to see someone slip over during the night to the bathroom.Half the unit is in full view for everyone to view in from the main path passing 2 meter in front of the floor to ceiling windows.I feel it’s overpriced.We were a late arrival so never got to meet manager….but the lead up to booking and arrival was super organised professional friendly and easy to checkin.

An unique, tranquil place with beautiful gardens, spa, sauna and steam room, located on the best beach

We stayed in the Shanti Villa for 3 nights and it was amazing. The location is too great to detail, felt very exclusive. The beach was so private and perfect. The views were great. Our room came with a private deck with cabana and amazing views, bear in mind though the villa is down the hill nestled in the Balinese themed naturescape with a wonderful long bridge and stairs connecting it to the deck and beach.

Do yourself a favour and take that special someone here! This place is something special. This was our second stay and doubt it will be the last! You have privacy but also close to the hub if you want to go out. I was reading the guest book and seems to be a popular spot to get engaged. Can’t fault it and looking forward to going back!

Tranquil and relaxing resort, absolute piece of heaven. Perfect location in front of the beautiful beach, walking distance to many cafes. perfect for couples get away, Honey Moon, Baby moon or wedding staycation. The hosts are very friendly and are not hesitant to help. Absolutely recommend

I'm very impressed here at Shambhala retreat Byron Bay. Beautiful place! A great place for peace, calmness and healing. We are enjoying watching the sunrise. Time well worth spent here in Byron Bay!

Just a 25 minute walk along the beach from Byron Bay township is Shambhala. A quiet, tranquil oasis of shade and peace close to the the bustle of Byron. The unit that we were in (Shiva) had a large lounge (used as the yoga room during yoga retreats), a comfortable double bed with an ensuite (shower only). Really enjoyed the steam room and the sauna, both excellent. There’s no pool at Shambhala and our room didn’t have a spa like the others and no dishwasher. It’s right on the beach so great for a morning walk or swim. Stayed 5 nights, the room was serviced on day 3 only. Fresh towels each day would be an improvement. Would stay again, very pleasant:)
