Family-Friendly Villas in Byron Bay's Hinterland

Planning a family getaway to Byron Bay? Carinya offers six self-contained villas set in the hinterland, 10 minutes from Byron Bay and 7 minutes from Bangalow.

Our villas are set up for families of all sizes, with room to spread out and nature right on your doorstep.

Tailored for Families

Each villa has two bedrooms, so the kids get their own room and you get yours. There's an open-plan living and dining area, a full kitchen, and a laundry with a washer and dryer for sandy towels and muddy clothes. We keep cots, highchairs and children's tableware on hand, so that's three fewer things in the car. Outside there's a private deck with a Weber BBQ and an outdoor shower for rinsing off after the beach.

Why Families Love Staying at Carinya

We often hear from parents that Carinya is exactly the kind of place they were looking for - calm, comfortable and easy. After a big day at the beach or exploring the hinterland, families love coming back to space they can truly unwind in.

Each villa is fully self-contained, with a kitchen for easy mealtimes, laundry facilities for sandy towels, and enough room for everyone to relax.

Holiday Together, Relax Separately

Travelling with friends or extended family? Carinya is ideal for shared holidays. Book two or more neighbouring villas and enjoy spending time together while still having your own space to unwind. Cook meals side by side, watch the kids explore, and gather on the deck for sunset drinks, then retreat to your own villa at the end of the day.

Make the Most of Your Time Together

Whether it’s your toddler’s first time spotting a cow or a chance to slow down as a family, a stay at Carinya gives you the space to reconnect. It’s easy, unfussy, and surrounded by nature, just the way a family holiday should be.
