About this property

Samkara Byron Bay

Samkara Byron Bay — A Balinese-Inspired Sanctuary in the Byron Bay Hinterland



Tucked away on a secluded hill just ten minutes from Byron Bay, Samkara is a private nine-bedroom estate offering panoramic ocean views, total privacy, and a rare blend of nature and luxury. Designed for retreats, family gatherings, and executive getaways, this two-storey villa combines Balinese elegance with relaxed Australian comfort.

Each of the nine suites has its own ensuite bathroom, with select rooms featuring jacuzzis overlooking the horizon. Spacious living and dining areas flow into wide verandahs and outdoor lounges surrounded by tropical gardens. Unwind by the sun-soaked pool, enjoy a massage in the dedicated treatment room, or soak in the heated garden spa as the sun sets over the hinterland.

Inside, the villa offers a gourmet kitchen, a games room with billiards, and generous spaces designed for connection and calm. Every bedroom opens onto a private verandah with ocean, garden, or hinterland views. The interiors blend handcrafted textures and natural light to create an atmosphere of effortless serenity.

Samkara Byron Bay is more than accommodation — it’s an experience of reconnection. Whether you’re hosting a wellness retreat, an intimate celebration, or a corporate offsite, our team can assist with private chefs, yoga teachers, or tailored programs arranged in advance.

Here, luxury feels grounded, time slows down, and every stay becomes a transformative escape.
