THE CHALET IS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PROPERTIES IN THE BYRON BEACH ABODES LUXURY HOLIDAY PORTFOLIO. IT EVOKES THE GLAMOUR DAYS OF PALM BEACH, CALIFORNIA BUT WITH A RELAXED VIBE THAT IS PURE BYRON BAY.

It’s set in private grounds amongst towering cabbage palms, with a dreamy, classic pool as its central focus and every nook and cranny showcases Taliah Lowry’s signature aesthetic, which oozes elegance and quiet sophistication.

She wanted The Chalet to be a place for family and friends to indulge in all the luxury it provides but it’s also been a magnet for some of our favs. People such as Andi Csinger and her beau Teo (let’s be honest – Andi makes any place look sophisticated and stylish!), Holly Tetheridge and Shaun Lyle from Base Colour who’ve included it on their lustworthy holiday accoms list for their legion of followers, and Samantha Wills who chose The Chalet as the place to launch her Billabong jewellery collab. Vogue has listed it too as their choice for Best Air BnB in Byron. You might just want to come to check it out for yourself with Spring here and Summer just around the corner!

Of course you’ll see layers of texture, metres of linen, trailing greenery and pieces from her favourite suppliers including Hale Mercantile, Cultiver, Bemboka, HK Living, Armadillo and Bisque. And you’ll also see custom-made light fittings from an Etsy shop in Florida, a gold vintage mirror which had been hanging on a bathroom wall for 40 years which Taliah wrestled off the owners after asking nicely and often, and bespoke couches covered in the plushest of turquoise velvets.

Read the story about The Chalet’s transition from an old-school design into a testament to 20th century modernist Palm Springs architecture, with a decidedly Australian twist, and get to know the team Taliah pulled together to deliver it. You might also find some inspiration for your own property makeover.
