About Us

Luxury Property Management, Thoughtfully Executed

Kalio exists for owners who want more than just management, they want calm confidence. We care for a curated portfolio of homes across Byron Bay and its surrounds, treating each as both residence and investment.

Our role is to remove complexity. Homes are kept immaculate, guests are well looked after, and the details are handled without fuss. Owners step back, knowing everything is taken care of, from presentation to performance.

What Sets Us Apart

Our backgrounds span property management, real estate private equity, advisory, and hospitality, shaped not just by what we’ve done, but by how we think: like owners.

We understand what a well-run property should deliver, not just aesthetically, but financially. That’s why we stay focused. Fewer homes, deeper attention, and a clear commitment to long-term value.

The Company We Keep

While Kalio is led by a focused team of operators, we’re supported by a broader circle of specialists who help us maintain the high standards our clients expect. From photographers and interior designers to trusted tradespeople, cleaners, event coordinators, and concierge partners, every relationship is carefully chosen for its quality, consistency, and discretion.

This network is an extension of our ethos: calm, thorough, and quietly exceptional. When we manage a home, everything is in place, from the way it’s styled and maintained to the people who walk through the door.

For owners, this means less involvement, fewer worries, and a home that holds its value, both emotionally and financially. Maintenance isn’t deferred, presentation isn’t rushed, and performance isn’t left to chance. Every element is considered. Every detail is looked after.

Alexander Chaouka

Head of Property

Alex developed his eye for detail early, working alongside his family in the property maintenance trade. It’s where he learned the value of flawless presentation, preventative upkeep, and standards that don’t slip. These are the principles he carried into professional property management roles in Sydney’s inner city, managing homes where quality wasn’t a luxury, it was expected.

His entrepreneurial drive later led him to create a boutique hospitality brand, which he expanded from a single mobile concept into a multi-location operation known for its service quality and strong commercial performance. The focus? Consistency, guest experience, and attention to detail, principles he now applies to every property he manages.

After supporting his partner through a significant health challenge, Alex and his partner relocated to Byron Bay, a place they had always felt connected to. He brings a sharp eye for detail, deep operational experience, and a quiet reliability that owners trust. Every property under his care is maintained to the highest standards: immaculate, efficient, and always guest-ready.

Billy Badani

Head of Partnerships

Billy brings nearly two decades of experience in high-end property management, with a track record of transforming luxury homes into consistently performing assets. He’s led and grown successful property businesses, with a focus on delivering fully hands-off, end-to-end management for discerning owners.

His work launching Three Meadows, a flagship Byron Bay estate, is a standout example. From build through to booking, Billy oversaw every stage, positioning the property as a five-star retreat and securing strong, ongoing demand from luxury guests and events.

At Kalio, Billy leads operations with precision and calm. He knows what it takes to ensure luxury homes perform without ever feeling like they’re being “managed.” For owners, that means absolute confidence, in their home, its guests, and the results.
