Learn tricks of the trade – how to luxe your interiors, brew the perfect kombucha or make a killer pumpkin hummus.

Australian hospitality company, Crystalbrook Collection has today launched their #AtHomeWithCrystalbrook initiative to bring a little Crystalbrook flavour into your own home.

Ensuring the hotel group's five-star experiences are still being felt by Australians nationwide in the coming months, Crystalbrook Collection will be sharing live and pre-recorded content from the At Home With Crystalbrook hub to inspire, educate and entertain.

From poolside yoga in Cairns to décor tips in Sydney and rainforest walks in Byron Bay, Australians can now travel to each of Crystalbrook's luxurious hotels from the comfort of their living room.

For those looking to enhance their cooking skills, Byron at Byron's Chef Minh will be hosting virtual cooking classes so you can make your own sourdough, or a delicious home kombucha for a health kick.

Riley's restaurants in Cairns have got you covered from morning to night, with Greenfields' Acai Crunch Bowl recipe, Paper Crane's Pad Ka Pro or Rocco's Roasted Pumpkin Hummus.

During your down time, video call your friends and family with a cocktail in hand thanks to Riley's delicious cocktail recipes, including Paper Crane's Kan Pai, Greenfields' Kiwi Crush or Rocco's Cinnameeter.

When you've had your helping (and then some) of delicious food and drinks from Cairns' best restaurants, work off those extra calories with a virtual fitness class led by Alexz Parvi, owner of Byron Bay's cult favourite studio Hustl, or a barre class from Riley. For those wanting to take it slow, a beginner's guide to sketching from Bailey or an interior trends session from Little Albion will do the trick.

Take some time for self-care with Byron at Byron's rainforest and ocean meditation clips or learn something new with a guided rainforest tour with Byron at Byron's head gardener.

Crystalbrook Earth Kids

There's something for the kids too. The kids' version of At Home With Crystalbrook will feature educational content supporting Crystalbrook Collection's approach to sustainability and responsible luxury.

Crystalbrook Earth Kids encourages children to foster a deeper appreciation for the environment both from home and in the wider world.  This branch of the digital hub includes how-to content on building your own bee hotel, building your own compost system using recycled materials and lessons on renewable energy, teaching kids how to build their own wind turbine or at-home rain gauge. 

For the little chefs, kids' cooking classes will also be available, showing how to use local produce to make a healthy picnic lunch that can be shared with the whole family.

The At Home With Crystalbrook hub can be found at crystalbrookcollection.com/at-home-with-crystalbrook while Crystalbrook Earth Kids can be found at crystalbrookcollection.com/earth-kids. Both will be added to each week.

Take Crystalbrook Home

Those taking part at home will have the chance to win a Crystalbrook Care Kit filled with some of the hotels' signature amenities, valued at over $180. Simply snap a pic and share to Facebook or Instagram, tagging @crystalbrookcollection and #AtHomeWithCrystalbrook. A new winner will be announced each Friday.
