In a prime location on Jonson Street in the heart of Byron Bay, The Bonobo by Raes brings a unique luxury hybrid model of hotel-apartments to one of the country’s most famous coastal destinations. A collaboration between property developer Podia, Brisbane architect Richards and Spence and famed Byron hotelier Raes, Bonobo by Raes comprises 41 two-, three- and four-bedroom apartments, with eight currently on the market.
Inspired by iconic Byron locales like The Great Northern Hotel, the low-rise, modernist building is crafted in robust brickwork, creating a sculptural new landmark in Byron. At ground level, a cluster of dining, retail and wellness venues reflect the spirit of the bustling Jonson Street precinct, while a richly landscaped central courtyard offers respite from the bustle and a rooftop pool represents the best in five-star-hotel amenities.
The 41 private hotel-apartments embody barefoot luxury at its finest, where sun-bleached tones, tactile beauty and refined materiality create soft, calming spaces. Seamless indoor outdoor connections mark all of the apartments, with a combination of terraces, balconies and roof terraces – the ground-floor spaces with their own private plunge pool.
The complex also treads lightly on Byron Bay, with a raft of sustainability features including energy efficient tapware and lighting, a rainwater tank for irrigation, cost- and energy-reducing day-night-zoned air-conditioning and extensive landscape to reduce the heat island effect and absorb stormwater.
