The Northern New South Wales hotspot has undergone a major revamp recently – a six week renovation that transformed the restaurant, bar and accommodation precinct. Leading interior designers Luchetti Krelle and one of Australia’s most recognised chefs, executive Chef Matthew Kemp led the overhaul. Producing a sleek new accommodation option overflowing with the work of local artists, and highlight features that include new statement copper island bar, a verandah and a monumental sandstone reception desk. The menu has had a similar refresh, reflecting a renewed focus on regional, seasonal ingredients that fuses European cuisine and Asian flavours together. “The concept of the refurbishment was to personify the well-travelled Australian and to bring a more residential quality to the resort’s hub. This stunning refurbishment and refined kitchen direction, teamed with our uniquely intuitive service will ensure The Byron at Byron remains at the forefront of Resort accommodation in Australia,” says General Manager Lyn Parche of the new look.
