Itโ€™s like thereโ€™s been a mass exodus in Hollywood, with a slew of stars including Zac Efron, Natalie Portman and of course, adopted local Chris Hemsworth relocating to New South Walesโ€™ hottest beach destination, Byron Bay.

And unlike Tinsel Town, the likelihood of spotting these celebrities on your visit is pretty high. In fact, weโ€™ve heard Hemsy doesnโ€™t mind a quick selfie!

So if youโ€™re keen to go celeb-spotting, youโ€™re going to need the perfect place to stay, right?

Enter: Elements of Byron.

Nestled on a slice of the infamous Belongil Beach (where Zac is rumoured to be living with his new Aussie girlfriend Vanessa Valladares) just five minutesโ€™ drive from Byronโ€™s town centre, the serene, eco-resort is one that you wonโ€™t want to leave โ€“ aside for in search of some famous faces.

The spectacular acreage is surrounded by native fauna, wetlands and, as mentioned, a delightful stretch of sand and is perfect for a full-family or adults-only getaway.

Case in point โ€“ theyโ€™ve got an all-ages lagoon pool for you and the kids to enjoy but also an 18+ pool with a swim-up bar and cosy cabanas if you want some solo or couple time โ€“ which former Bachelorette star Georgia Love has enjoyed.

Oh, and youโ€™ve also got direct and private access to the beach if youโ€™d prefer. You can treat yourself to a cocktail post dip at the gorgeous Botanica bar.

And the villas? Theyโ€™re fully functional with a full kitchen and bathroom/s, not to mention a fire place on your private, sheltered balcony.

Some even have a separate bath house, so itโ€™ll feel like youโ€™re in a day spa in your room!

Of course thereโ€™s an actual day spa called Osprey on-site, so you can go and enjoy one of their bespoke treatments which include hydrating body wraps and La Gaia facials.

When youโ€™re ready to head to reception for either a bite to eat at the delectable restaurant Azure Bar & Grill (open for breakfast, lunch and dinner daily) or to continue on out to explore more of Byron Bay, simply give the concierge a buzz from your room and one of the (ridiculously sweet!) staff will come and collect you on a golf buggy.

Convenient, much?

If youโ€™re feeling like youโ€™ve been on the buggy a little too often and need to get your body moving, you can make use of the gym, join one of the morning yoga classes or have a hit at the tennis court.
