Pelorus’ naturally isolated, sprawling single residence features five luxurious suites, making it the only luxury private island home in the region. Pelorus Private Island’s residence epitomizes contemporary coastal luxury, with wide open spaces and clean lines defining its modern island aesthetic. Clad in fresh white-washed shiplap with wooden shutters and floorboards beckoning bare feet, the residence’s design evokes a sense of purity and tranquillity, seamlessly blending with the landscape’s white coral sand beaches and tropical blue waters.
The light-filled residence features expansive lounges and dining areas with a fully stocked bar and an open kitchen, for guests to be entertained and indulged by our private chef. The inviting beachfront pool and generous breezy spotted gum verandas provide comfortable nooks and lounges to laze, read or chat with endless Coral Sea views.
The island’s five private suites are each furnished with a curated selection of hand-made designer furniture and textiles, blending timeless sophistication with off-duty island style. Earthy hardwood timber posts and hand-sanded feature columns draw the eye to your suite’s expansive cathedral ceilings, creating a grand, awe-inspiring atmosphere for rest and relaxation. Freestanding king beds draped in Italian linen and duck-filled pillows provide luxurious comfort, while your in-room lounge is the ideal setting for reading and recharging in the privacy of your suite. The fifth suite is triple-share and can alternatively be used for staff (security, nanny etc.) traveling with guests.
