The Sebel Byron Bay

The Sebel Byron Bay is a central apartment hotel at 24 Fletcher Street, a short walk from the main beaches and the town centre. The Accor-run property takes dogs in select apartments, but availability is limited and some booking platforms still show conflicting no-pets information, so a direct confirmation is essential.

Dogs at the Sebel

Pets are accepted on request in designated pet-friendly apartments only, with an additional pet fee and the standard condition that dogs are well behaved and never left unattended in the room. Size and weight limits are not published, and pet rooms are limited, so call the property and get a pet room assigned to your dates before you book anything else.

Ask about the fee and any deposit at the same time, since neither is clearly published. Ground floor or balcony apartments are the practical pick with a dog, and the apartments come with full kitchens and laundries, so bring your own bedding and bowls.

Max: some sites still list this property as no pets, so do not rely on an OTA listing. One phone call to the hotel settles it.

The place

It is a one to three bedroom apartment setup with balconies, a pool and spa, and onsite parking, which suits longer stays with a dog better than a standard hotel room. The central position puts Fletcher and Lawson Street cafes with outdoor seating in walking distance.

While you're out there

Byron Shire Council restricts off-lead time to set zones, and the closest are Belongil Beach South dog exercise area north of town and the Tallow Beach dog exercise area at Suffolk Park to the south. Dogs stay on lead around the town centre and Main Beach. For coffee, Leaf & Grain is close by, and Ingenia Holidays Byron Bay is the backup pet-friendly option if the Sebel has no pet apartments free.

More stays that take dogs are in the NSW pet friendly accommodation guide and on the Byron Bay destination page.
