Welcome to the soul of Tasmania – told through seven unforgettable stays.
Striking architecture. Wild coastlines. Woodsmoke and warm bread. We’ve handpicked seven unique places to stay in Tasmania – boutique, eco, and beautifully local. Each one captures the soul of the island in its own quiet, unforgettable way.
You’ll meet platypus in the creek, sip pinot by the fire, and fall asleep to the hush of ancient trees. Here’s where to stay when you want the real Tasmania.
Wherewithal Luxury Suites, Sorell
Striking, sustainable, and full of soul.
Sleeps 2,
This handcrafted haven near Hobart is all raw timber, soft linens, and vineyard views. Pour a local pinot, light the fire, and lean into stillness. Once a 1960s shack, now reimagined with architectural flair — recycled brick, locally milled timber, and soaring windows that frame the changing sky. The garden is planted for birds and bees, the atmosphere is intentional living, and the energy? Pure slow-Tasmanian calm. Book Your Stay
Questa, Bruny Island
Wild and off-grid on Bruny’s quiet side.
Sleeps 4.
Questa is solar-powered, sea-facing, and designed to disappear into the bush. Wake with birdsong, wander the coast, and end your day under stars. There’s no TV — just shelves of books, warm timber walls, and the sound of wind through the trees. Rainwater tanks feed your long soak in the clawfoot tub. And the views? They stretch across D’Entrecasteaux Channel to the mainland, untouched and uninterrupted. Book Your Stay
Walters at Coles Bay, Freycinet
Sunrise over The Hazards, wine on the deck, toes in the sand.
Sleeps 8.
This is coastal luxury without the fuss. It’s bright, breezy, and one of the best spots to land on Tassie’s east coast. Just steps from the beach and a short skip to Freycinet walks, it’s designed for group getaways – think soaring ceilings, indoor and outdoor living, and the soft glow of sunrise flooding in. A private track leads to Great Oyster Bay. Firepit nights. Long-table dinners. The dream coastal retreat. Book Your Stay.
White Croft Cottage, Ross
Grass for days, woodsmoke, wide skies.
Sleeps 2.
White Croft is all about vintage charm and country quiet. A timeless escape in one of Tasmania’s most historic towns smack bang in the centre of the Apple Isle. Set on two acres, with the scent of lavender drifting through the garden. This region is cherry territory, with shops full of antique finds, historic and convict made monuments. There’s a record player and guitar, a deep bath with salts and candles, and an orchard that begs a picnic. This one’s for the romantics. Book Your Stay
Cambridge House, Geeveston
Stay for the heritage, fall for the Japanese breakfast option, spot the platypus.
Sleeps 10 across 5 rooms.
This 1870s guesthouse is full of grace and goodness in the south of the Huon. Five rooms with period charm, a firelit lounge, and a secret garden where platypus really do play in the creek. Breakfast is local or exquisitely Japanese and lavish (think house-baked bread, Huon salmon, orchard fruit). And hosts Thana and Kaz? Extraordinary hospitality and award winning chef offering a Shio Dining experience beyond dreams. Book Your Stay
The Townhouse, Launceston
City Slick, slow stay.
Sleeps 4.
Big windows, bold art, and your own espresso bar. A beautifully styled Victorian terrace base for exploring Launceston’s best. This two-bedroom apartment is a visual treat — vintage rugs, curated bookshelves, an entire wall of art — and the kitchen is stocked with all the good Tassie produce. There’s even a record player, so you can spin something soulful as you get ready for dinner out. Book Your Stay.
Henry’s on Balfour, Launceston
Charming, creative, and stylishly cosy.
Sleeps 6.
Henry’s is all velvet cushions, French doors, and long breakfasts in the garden. One of those places you’ll talk about long after you’ve left. Formerly a milliner’s studio, now a moody-luxe hideout with deep green walls, crackling firelight, and a kitchen for real cooking. There’s a library nook, rainhead shower, and a courtyard so lush it could be in Provence. And we all love Provence, don’t we? Book Your Stay.
