The owner accessed the property and walked through a number of times to walk her dogs in full view of the outdoor bath. Head down and did not look at us. Manager said it was a friend who didn’t know the house was booked but we had our 2 cars in the carport that she walked straight past. Very disappointing experience in multiple ways!

Lovely home in perfect location in Byron! Vibrant and home with charm.
Some things requiring maintenance, but we had everything we needed and the space was clean and welcoming.

The house was rented by our 18 year old daughters. The girls had a wonderful stay and wouldn't hesitate to book this accommodation again.

The owner of this property has no interest in anything except taking a customer’s money (and lots of it too). He reaped a few days worth out of my family and I and it is very sad when a person has to stoop to those levels for some cash. Paul, if your situation was so desperate we would have donated money, you did not have to stoop to such sad, opportunistic levels. We feel very sorry for greedy philistines like this.
Stay away from this person and his two properties and his ‘antiques’. He is a sad, little conman and it is very pathetic someone has to go to such desperate measures to make money. Well done Paul, you’ve outdone yourself.

Thank you so much for allowing our young men to stay at your property to celebrate the end of year 12. You were very accommodating to the whole group and a great communicator. The boys had a fantastic time. thanks again.

The house is situated in a quiet lane with very little through traffic so it was very peaceful. It is only a short walk to the centre of Byron and also to the beach. We had our dog with us so it was great to be able to take him to Belongil Beach which is beautiful and dog friendly. The house and garden are as in the photos and the kitchen is very well equipped. We had a lovely relaxing stay here and would recommend the property to other families.

Our second stay at Shirley Blue, once again didn’t disappoint. We will back next year.

The house was very cute. Close to town although having to cross Shirley street was sometimes busy.
The bedroom doors did not close well.
Messages were answered very quickly and questions answered. We enjoyed our stay.

Great little house, would stay there again.
2.5 / 5.0
We had a lovely stay at Shirley Blue. We were 4 single women and it was perfect for coming together but also finding spaces to get away from it all. We came in winter and the house is lovely and cosy, but I would love to go back in summer and make use of the various outdoor places to hang out and relax. Communication with the manager was very good and responsive. The position is great, a short walk to the beach and the main Byron shop, but still really quiet. And it's a little bit before town so you don't have to negotiate the traffic. I highly recommend this property.
