Captivated by the beauty of the neighboring multi-award-winning resort, Qualia, Greg Natale clients approached that property’s architect to begin the design of their very own expansive private clifftop hideaway.

An exceptional vacation home for a young family, one of the features this eight bedroom property shares with tropical Australian resorts is a focus on bringing the outdoors in. The house enjoys exquisite views of the Coral Sea through the native hoop pines, as well as abundant plant life at its doors,as an interior designer establishing a connection to those elements was central to the concept.

Enjoying a breezy, open plan means the villa comprises a series of interconnected pavilions that flow on to courtyards, lawns, pools and secluded coastal lookouts. At every turn, tree trunks, leaves and water are not only visible but also accessible.
