George, at right, and Cidco, sexing up Crescent Head.

Sexy Bali hotelier and founder of denim label Ksubi set to transform drab country motel near iconic Australian point into “70’s-inspired surf-club” boutique hotel, “I love surfing and the wave is one of the best in Australia!”

"With artisan-produced furniture and crafts juxtaposing audacious art and progressive thinking."

The gorgeously dishevelled Australian designer turned hotelier George Gorrow, along with model wife Cisco Tschurtschenthale, is set to transfigure the old Crescent Head Resort & Conference Centre five hours north of Sydney into a “70’s inspired surf club hotel.”

Ain’t nothing romantic about the old joint at 30-34 Pacific St, four hundred or so metres from the relatively fun, if undemanding, point that last shot into the news in July, 2021, when a longboarder was hit by a ten-foot Great White.

Before

The Old Cc Resort.

After

&Ldquo;The 70&Rsquo;S Inspired&Nbsp;Surf Club / Hotel Merges Exceptional&Nbsp;International Design With Laid-Back Surf&Nbsp;Culture.&Rdquo;

Gorrow and Cisco, who created The Slow in Bali, call the new place SEA SEA.

The sell?

It offers “an acute sensitivity to textures and an irreverence for tradition. 70’s surf-inspired interiors feature throughout, with artisan-produced furniture and crafts juxtaposing audacious art and progressive thinking. The design plays with an abundance of natural textures, with the idea of making you feel immersed in your surroundings. The rooms will feature world-class minibars, and 24hr in-house radio curated by Reverberation.”

“A hotel for me is like this concept, and for me, the hotel now can be the place, not just a bed you use to sleep in while visiting a town,” says Georgie. “The hotel can be the key experience. This is what drives me, this is the experience I seek, and the experience I try to deliver all the different aspects of the hotel through 360-degree experience.”

Sexy, yeah?

SEA SEA opens in May, 2023, bookings start in December, 2022.

Fuck off idiots?

Tomas' silky smooth arms

Prefer the before. After looks so contrived and cringe. Also, before has a lovely glass table

Board Barnacle

Just another place for rich Sydney wankers to spoil. European SUVs and VALs overload.

davidcarson

oh c’mon expose some of that brick. but just as long as in the lobby we find old record players, typewriters and radios.

I much prefer the casual unthinking hand of nature over batshit anthropic assholery when it comes to selecting extinction events. I wouldn’t want to encourage them. Humans that is. Big mistake.

Will there be a wave pool?

Craven Morehead

Sadly they will probably be busy with the thousands of hipster muppets who eat up this puke with a spoon 🤦🏼

Brutus

another hipster who says,” you don’t even need to leave the hotel, as the experience within is enough!”

Is he renting his girl friend?
Is he renting his friends out?
Is the yogy/orgy conference center up and running?
Is the minibar full of drugs?
Is the bed on the floor so you can’t fall outa bed?
Is the bed on the floor so it’s easier and less noisy than fucking with a normal bed?
Is the 70’s style ,really just a cool throwaway line as the 70″ was motels?
Is Gorrow and Cisco a throw back to parents who had too much acid?
but most pressing is there 24hr porn TV station?

more to cum….not Roger or Michael!

Abscessed Llama

Capt Sensible

I’ll get a few of me old mates together and give them a 1970s experience they will never forget.

Firelipe Torpedo

Ah yes the old mattress on the floor classic surf inspired design

AI (for ever) .

One of the best waves in Australia?

Lol.

I wish them all the best.

The place has for last couple decades been Sydney’s most northern point break with the crowd too match.
If I didn’t have family in the area to stay with I’d likely look them up for accommodation.

It’s something different, I like that!

Give people a chance ffs,?

Italo Post Heat Interview

It seems its for people who are ‘interested’ in surfing as opposed to those who surf. Would be a hit with ppl bored of that Deus Ex scene or whatever it is

RQ.

“Deus Ex scene”
*shudder*

Low wide stinkbug stance

They are just triggering us so that someone here will go burn it down, they walk away with the insurance money and sell it to some fuckwit developer.

Gotta wash that coke off the money somehow.

Been a silent fence sitter for to long. The only ‘juxtaposition ‘ I see is those 2 fuckmuppets, their 70s Ron Jeremy inspired cat house and The good people and the town of Cresent Head.

Marco Howie
