Our Story

For over 20 years, my husband and I lived by the rhythm of the ocean. My career was spent managing operations at some of Australia’s most iconic island destinations — including Lizard Island, Dunk Island, and XXXX Island — where my role was to create guest experiences that felt calm, considered, and restorative.

We always dreamed of bringing that resort feeling home — spaces that made everyday life feel slower, lighter, and more grounded.

After years of caring for my husband through illness, that vision took on deeper meaning. Coastalis was born as a way to carry forward the life we loved — one shaped by the sea, simplicity, and the quiet impact of thoughtful details.

Today, Coastalis reflects that philosophy. Each piece is chosen to evoke the deep exhale you feel when the ocean air hits your skin. This isn’t décor for show — it’s an invitation to live more gently, every day.

Our Ethos

We believe a home should feel like a sanctuary.

We don’t chase fast trends. Instead, I apply the same rigorous eye for detail I used in five-star resorts — selecting pieces that bring warmth, texture, and ease to a space.

From woven baskets that soften a corner, to ceramics inspired by reef and shoreline, to linens that invite you to slow down — every piece is chosen to be lived with, not rushed past.

Giving Back — Support with Every Order

Coastalis is a personal journey. With every order, a portion of proceeds is shared equally between two organisations doing vital work in lung cancer research and support:

• Thoracic Oncology Group of Australasia (TOGA)
  
• Lung Foundation Australia
  

By choosing Coastalis, you’re helping support research, care, and hope for the future.

How We Operate — Conscious & Curated

Coastalis is a boutique, Australian-owned business run from the coast of Queensland.

To minimise waste and unnecessary carbon footprint, we operate on a direct-shipment model. Every partner is personally vetted, and every product is selected against the durability and quality standards I worked to throughout my resort career.

Your order is fulfilled directly by trusted partners and delivered to your door — allowing us to offer a wider range of premium coastal designs without the overhead of a large warehouse, while supporting a small, independent business.
