This review is for First Sun Caravan Park, Byron Bay NSW

verified email - 15 Oct 2012

Right on the beach, beautiful Byron Bay but also close to shops so you can just walk everywhere.
If you are a family, I recommend week days as the weekends are full if young yahoos getting drunk and loud, but its quiet during the week. The cabins are great but if you have a caravan, there are beach front sites :)
We had a problem with our booking but the girls did everything they could to sort it out and found us another site when they were full. Couldn't ask for better service and its a top spot for a holiday :)

Approximate cost: $50

Great for a treat for the kids and always a new exciting favour so you don't get bored of it no matter how many times you go. My kids love the cotton candy and my eldest son loves the banana sundaes. You can't go past the hot fudge sauce and there are healthy low-fat, yogurt & sorbet for everyone's needs. I love the macadamia, it's been my Favourite for years.

This review is for Clarkes Beach Holiday Park, Byron Bay NSW

This caravan park is right on the beach, it's family friendly and the prices are reasonable considering its location.
They squeezed us in when the other parks were full and we had a lovely shady spot. The kids loved it, so close to the beach and the facilities are clean.

This review is for Bella Rosa Gelataria, Byron Bay NSW

No matter how busy they get at this gelato shop, there is service with a smile and the gelato is absolutely delicious!
I had a smoothie which I thought was a little small for the price but the gelato servings are good and its a great treat for the kids (white chocolate is yummy but doesn't stain their clothes) and they do kiddy size so you don't have to spend a fortune!

Approximate cost: $4

This little shop has lots of cute clothes & current styles. If you are after something different, it's definitely worth a look around.
The service was great & helpful when I went in to browse the staff told me to like their business on Facebook to get 10% off my purchase which of course I did!
Keep an eye on their online shopping too, which is all launching soon.

Approximate cost: $50

This review is for Little Beans, Mermaid Beach QLD

The food here is nice and service was friendly but they did forget our coffee order which didn't impress me a whole lot.
There is comfy seating outside & I would try them again to give them a second chance.

This review is for Govs Espresso, Mermaid Beach QLD

Gotta Love this espresso bar, although I think they should definitely go back to making breakfast as we were disappointed when we went there and could only get snacky stuff & muffins etc. The selection of awesome old furniture is great and they sell interesting old stuff. The kids love going there as there is a big backyard to play in and a relaxed feeling.

This review is for Sol Bakery And Cafe, Southport QLD

The organic food here is delicious, expect to pay a bit more but I think it's worth it as its healthy and especially if you require certain foods for the allergy conscious, you can get it here.
The staff seem friendly and helpful.

This review is for Alfresco Pizzeria Restaurant, Surfers Paradise QLD

No matter how busy, they always find us a table!
The 'Crommo Special' pizza is my Favourite pizza in the world and my whole family love it. Awesome Italian food and the best local family business & service.

This review is for Trio Romano, Mermaid Beach QLD

Awesome pizza for dine-in or takeaway, they're always busy.
If you're dining in, reserve a table as its a teeny little place.
The veal dishes are sensational and the Gorgonzola bread is always a first choice entree. Top spot.
