The $100 million venture, spanning fifty acres including two kilometres of absolute beachfront on Byron’s prized Belongil Beach, opens February 2016. To lead the Elements of Byron team a thorough search was conducted and tourism boss Leon Pink has been appointed to the General Manager position. Leon Pink’s hotel career spans more than twenty years, having managed luxury and boutique hotels and resorts in Europe, Australia, Asia and the Pacific. Most recently he was General Manager for Ayers Rock Resort’s flagship hotel Sails in the Desert, playing a key role in the rejuvenation of the destination. Previous roles include General and Resort Manager roles in Thailand and Fiji. Leon’s years of travel have given him a profound respect for Australia and all it offers the traveller. “Today’s traveller seeks authentic nature based interactions within a local community,” he said. “They are looking for hosts with an environmental conscience and the latest technology, yet at the same time they want a genuine experience, one which cannot be duplicated elsewhere. Elements of Byron is set to deliver on all these levels.
