Our ultimate guide to a girls weekend in Byron Bay

Nothing beats the seaside vibing charm of Byron Bay for a girls weekend away! We gathered a handful of our besties and a whole lot of Nine Lives sneaky samples for the ultimate road trip last month. 
We've done all the research for you - here's our top tips for your weekend away in the beautiful Byron Bay!  
STAY
A quaint cottage nestled right in the heart of Byron, Paradiso Property set the perfect backdrop for our weekender. One of Byron's first heritage houses, the open-plan 4 bedroom retreat was so comfy and full of serenity and charm. The heated pool and delicious sunny deck were perfect for the copious amounts of pet nat wines and deep chats that went down. 
DINE 
BY DAY
After we checked in, we wasted no time and went straight from beach to bar and relaxed on the deck at Balcony. We basked in the sunshine and enjoyed crab rolls, fish tacos and sparkling wine. 
BY NIGHT
Dancing shoes and disco outfits were necessary for our next stop: late night restaurant The Smoking Camel, a modern Middle eastern eatery/discoteca from the Light Years team. This place is a total vibe! Think neon lights, delicious cocktails and vibing staff. Menu highlights include BBQ king prawns and saganaki with burnt honey. Yum! 
DANCE
What better way to end the evening than with a dose of live music and dancing! We made our way to the duelling piano bar at The Northern for a seriously fun sing-a-long session. The night went on with a trip to Lovers Lane and Casa Luna for some late night D-floor vibes.
WEAR
Our girlfriends were obsessed with some of the upcoming sparkly pieces and printed styles from Arcadia and Maverick Muse. Plenty of sneak peeks to be enjoyed right here!
