Halcyon House Named One of Australia’s Top 10 Boutique Hotels by Gourmet Traveller

Halcyon House Facade - Sydney Luxury Hotel PR

At Wanderlust Union, we’re proud to partner with brands that shape the future of luxury travel – and we couldn’t be more thrilled to celebrate our client Halcyon House, recently named one of Gourmet Traveller’s Top 10 Boutique Hotels in Australia. Alongside Halcyon House’s remarkable vision, impeccable service, and stunning property, we see this recognition as a celebration of the power of consistent, brand-led storytelling in luxury hospitality.

Located on the coastline of Cabarita Beach, Halcyon House has redefined what boutique accommodation in Australia looks and feels like. Once a 1960s surf motel, it was transformed into an elegant coastal retreat that balances maximalist design with laid-back luxury. With its signature patterned walls, vintage furnishings, and Mediterranean flair, it continues to be one of the most photographed and beloved boutique hotels in the country – and for good reason.

But Halcyon House is far more than just visually iconic. From its acclaimed restaurant Paper Daisy, known for its local produce and refined beachside cuisine, to the intimate guest experience and attention to detail throughout the property, every part of the brand has been built with thought and intention.

This year, Halcyon House celebrates 10 years of boutique excellence - a decade of bold design, elevated hospitality, and a brand story that has remained as relevant and inspiring as ever. As a PR agency focused on luxury travel, lifestyle, food, wine and design, we’ve worked closely with the Halcyon team to ensure their brand message resonates in the right markets, at the right time.

We have championed Halcyon House even before its doors officially opened. A decade on, we are proud to continue handling their PR and communications, helping to cement their reputation as one of Australia’s most celebrated boutique hotels. This long-standing partnership is a testament to what we do best as a luxury travel PR agency: shaping perceptions, building enduring brand equity, and creating narratives that resonate with discerning travellers around the world.

Their inclusion in Gourmet Traveller’s Hotel Guide is a well-deserved honour and a timely reminder that great hospitality is both an art and an experience. Congratulations to Halcyon House for continuing to lead from the front.
