First Sun Holiday Park
Byron Bay · Accommodation
(464 reviews)
Lawson Street puts you about as close to the sand as you can get without sleeping on it. First Sun Holiday Park sits at the eastern edge of town, a short walk from Main Beach and the Cape Byron walking track. The park offers a range of accommodation options, from powered sites to cabins, making it one of the few places in Byron where you can pitch a tent or pull in a van and still be central. It draws a mixed crowd: families, long-haul travellers, surfers who'd rather spend money on boards than beds. Facilities are on-site and the location does a lot of the heavy lifting. Without recent reviews to draw from, it's hard to call specifics, but the address alone is the pitch. In Byron, proximity to the beach at this price point is rare.

What People Say
First time staying here and it was fantastic! We stayed for 4 nights on a girls trip and the location right in town made it so convenient to go out at night and simply walk back to our cabins. Being right on the beach was perfect for morning beach walks. Was greeted by staff that were lovely and met the lovely managers at the drinks by the water on Saturday which is such a great way to meet others on holidays. We had a great stay and will come back again!
This is my 2nd time staying here in the last 6 months and I’ve loved it both times. The cabins are comfortable, it’s an easy walk into town for shopping and to get to the restaurants. The beachside social night on Saturday with the Kombi Keg is such a great touch and makes the stay even more fun. Looking forward to coming back again!
Fabulous location. Right on the beach and a two minute walk from the shops. Perfect. Had a powered site, a little tucked away from the main section but enough for our three night stay. We didn't use the kitchen amenities but they looked great. The washers and dryers did a great job.
Really enjoyed my stay here, especially since it is on the beach & the cabin was spacious. Perfect location being such a short walk to all the amazing local restaurants, bars & shops. Friendly staff & clean amenities were a bonus. Will definitely be back again.
Just returned from a wonderful time at Firstsunholidaypark at Byron Bay. It was our second holiday as we loved it so much 2 years ago,it was an easy choice to go back. The staff ,amenities,cleanliness were brilliant,and the fact it is nice and quiet,so you feel relaxed as soon as you arrive.A simple 2 minute walk and you’re in the heart of town. Look them up and make it your next holiday destination,you won’t regret it. P & J Feb 2026
More Accommodation in Byron Bay
Raes on Wategos
Wategos Beach
The only property sitting directly on Wategos Beach, Raes trades on position and a long-running restaurant reputation. Mediterranean in feel, small in scale, and priced accordingly. If you're going to spend up in Byron, the address alone makes a reasonable argument.
Elements of Byron
Byron Bay
Forty-five acres of coastal wetland, freestanding villas pointed at the trees, and private beach access. Elements sits deliberately apart from Byron's centre. The distance from the main strip isn't a drawback; it's the whole idea.
The Surf House Byron Bay
Byron Bay
On Lawson Street, a short walk from the beach path and the better end of town. The name suggests surf-adjacent simplicity rather than full resort mode. Worth checking directly for rates and availability, Byron pricing at this level shifts with the season.
Aquarius Backpackers Resort
Byron Bay
The cafe attached to one of Byron's longest-running backpacker hostels keeps things simple: filling breakfasts, casual plates, and prices that reflect the crowd. On Lawson Street, close to the beach, and open to non-guests. Unpretentious and useful.
