Raes Guesthouses

Luxury boutique travel destination, Raes on Wategos, has unveiled a second property located just steps away from the original hotel. 

Introducing Raes Guesthouses, boasting 10 stunning suites, along with common areas, open log fireplaces, two lap pools and lush landscaped gardens, nestled in the heart of Byron Bay. 

Raes Guesthouses consists of two adjacent buildings, which together house ten spacious suites. Each suite boasts a king-sized bed with a custom bed head, sweeping views of Wategos Beach, private balconies, sun lounges and French-linen canopies. The property radiates a relaxed Mediterranean feel, with earthen pastels in blues and greens, hand-painted joinery, and vintage-inspired pieces throughout.

Common areas include two impressive lap pools set against tropical gardens, offering guests an ideal year-round escape. The western side offers a 16 x 3-meter pool with a waterfall, while the eastern side includes a solar-heated 12-meter pool, complete with a cabana and lounge area. 

Foodies can indulge in a mouthwatering menu inspired by the hotel’s oceanfront setting, showcasing a sumptuous selection of snacks, plates, and sweets, that can be served in-room, in the communal dining area or poolside. 

Guests will enjoy direct access to Raes Dining Room, a renowned 2-hatted restaurant located in the original Raes hotel, as well as the alfresco Cellar Bar, and the serene Raes Spa, offering a luxurious range of RATIONALE treatments. A dedicated in-house chauffeur service provides complimentary Lexus transfers for arrivals, departures, and local excursions, ensuring a seamless experience throughout their stay.
