Phase one will be unveiled on 1 September, including a new restaurant offering showcasing sustainable and local produce, with 80% of all ingredients sourced within a three-hour drive from Byron.
Phase two will include updated guest suites and a new Eléme Day Spa, which will be unveiled in November.
All Suite Resort
The refreshed guest suites have been aptly named to reflect the resort’s setting, from Rainforest Suite and Treetops Suite, to Rainforest Luxe Suite and Treetops Luxe Suites.
The resort will extend its offering to include a two-bedroom Rainforest Luxe Suite and a two-bedroom Treetops Luxe Suite.
The Rainforest Suites on the lower level look into the rainforest while the Treetops Suites on the upper level offer elevated views of the rainforest. All suites offer fully-enclosed front and rear verandahs, rainforest showers, freestanding deep soak bathtubs and separate living areas.
In addition, 90% of all printed collateral has been removed from the resort through the introduction of touch-free paperless check-in and checkout along with in-room Apple iPad control centres.
Eléme Day Spa
Byron at Byron’s spa will reopen in November as Eléme Day Spa, Crystalbrook’s signature spa brand, developed in consultation with leading spa expert Naomi Gregory.
With a philosophy immersed in nature, Eléme features bespoke facial and body therapies using the internationally-renowned Sodashi skincare range featuring ethically sourced natural ingredients.
For massage therapies, Eléme has partnered with Byron Bay’s Cura Co. Lab to develop custom-made eco-conscious therapeutic oils.
Sustainable luxury
In line with Crystalbrook Collection’s commitment to Responsible Luxury, the resort makes use of environmentally friendly, upcycled, recycled, and locally sourced materials wherever possible. The resort has a plastic-free policy (no plastic water bottles or straws) and, through the use of technology, has removed 90% of paper used by a typical five-star hotel.
Mindfully Safe
Mindfully Safe was launched by Crystalbrook Collection in response to Covid-19. The programme focuses on reducing travel anxiety by providing mindfulness and meditation tools developed in partnership with mental-wellbeing group The Indigo Project.
Mindfully Safe also incorporates cash-free transactions and heightened deep-cleaning hygiene measures.
