Open menuWhy it's worth checking out
The Shack @ The Beach Hotel is presented as a light-filled function space with indoor and outdoor seating and views towards Byron Bay’s Main Beach. Its breezy, relaxed setting is suited to both casual gatherings and more formal celebrations.
The wider Beach Hotel venue offers a beachfront restaurant and bar, with seafood, pub classics, craft beers, classic cocktails and other refreshing drinks listed among its food and drink options. The site also highlights a beachfront beer garden and seating near the main stage, giving groups a choice of atmosphere when conditions allow.
For groups under 30, bookings are not required and guests can walk in. Bookings are available for groups of 30–40 at 12pm or 4pm for three hours, with a $150 deposit returned on the day as a food and beverage voucher. The Shack is therefore most clearly suited to functions and larger gatherings, while the Beach Hotel’s food, drinks and entertainment areas provide options for a more casual visit.
