Portum

A luxurious haven for the senses, this is a thoughtfully designed masterpiece.

Step inside the sweeping front door and a cinematic view of the Pacific Ocean welcomes you. Built high on the ridge and set over three levels, this light filled sanctuary floats above the tree canopy, allowing you to immerse in your surrounds. 

Walk in, breathe out and let Portum’s fluid, light-filled spaces rinse your senses.

A modernist dream in perfect alignment.  Creative, visionary, sustainable and designed to wow —  the floors are linked by a stunning helical staircase.  

Sculptural curves and warm natural finishes deliver a refined aesthetic while the timeless interior palette riffs on the organic beauty of the surrounding Arakwal National Park.

Here, connection to nature is everything. With its minimal aesthetic and expansive ocean to sky views, there is a considered flow that encompasses indoor and outdoor living in its embrace.

The abundance of space makes it easy to enjoy quality time together as well as quiet moments alone. 

There are four luxurious king size bedrooms, each with their own ensuite, and views that capture the coastline or hinterland. A fully equipped designer kitchen, with butler’s pantry and two sumptuous living areas connected to generous outdoor spaces, ensure you have plenty of room to relax your way. 

Every detail has been carefully curated from the locally commissioned artworks to the personal luxe touches – Grown Alchemist bath and body products, sustainably made Citta cotton bath towels and linen robes, Mayde Organic teas and more…

The infinity magnesium pool and generous lounging areas beckon — then in the evening reconnect around the firepit for heavenly sunset drinks and stargazing.
Portum invites you to relax, rejuvenate, reconnect with friends, loved ones…and yourself.

When you’re ready to explore, a quiet bush track guides you through coastal heath to the white sand and turquoise water of Tallow Beach. A short drive in the opposite direction takes you into the heart of vibrant Byron Bay and the undulating Hinterland beyond.
