If you’ve ever ventured to Elements of Byron, you’ll understand the term ‘barefoot luxury’. Now, the creators behind Byron Bay’s award-winning resort have brought us Kirra Point Holiday Apartments, ensuring Kirra is the backdrop for an entirely new generation of holidaymakers. Perched atop the iconic Kirra Beach Hotel and Kirra Beach House, which sprang to life late last year, the apartments seamlessly blend hotel-like comforts with elevated modern apartment living. Elegant and well appointed, the luxurious holiday apartments are available in one-, two- and three-bedroom iterations and are curated to reflect the coastal surrounds with a neutral colour palette and bespoke furnishings. The architecture and layout of each apartment are designed for indoor-outdoor living and feature a wrap-around balcony to make the most of the incredible views over Kirra Beach.
For those who love to cook while they are on holidays, the apartments have the added benefit of modern conveniences including a full kitchen fitted with European appliances, Nespresso coffee machine and an entertaining-friendly stone island bench, while those who prefer to head out are well placed to while away an afternoon at Kirra Beach House or have a charcuterie platter or picnic hamper delivered. Shared facilities include a north-facing sun-drenched and expansive elevated pool deck that’s been positioned to allow uninterrupted views of the beach, with a 25-metre heated pool, outdoor shower, barbecue area and sheltered alcoves ideal for alfresco entertaining any time of year. There’s also an air-conditioned gym with Technogym equipment and a hire service for beach carts, umbrellas and bikes, for those who like to keep active in their holiday.
Kirra Point’s sophisticated atmosphere makes it an ideal holiday spot for discerning travellers who are keen to slow down and adopt a slightly slower pace while enjoying the buzz of the Gold Coast. Rates for Kirra Point Holiday Apartments start from $395 per night for a superior one-bedroom apartment through to $1410 per night for a deluxe three-bedroom.
