James, United Kingdom

2 women who run are really sweet. I had booked one room for myself and parents and got there and found out it wasn't allowed. they did everything to accommodate myself and family last minute.

Leigh, United States of America

Greetings from staff were really great and when we wanted help they were around, but otherwise they left us to our own peace and quiet - lovely balance. Beautiful place to stay in this gorgeous part of Tasmania. Make sure you have a car to appreciate the area in its entirety.

Melissa, Australia

The view was amazing, also waking up early to do a hike and getting to see a wombat wonder past the front deck!

Sevrin, Australia

Cleanliness, view, bed, heat,layout, staff, eco focus. Room was cozy and warm. View outstanding. Loved all the wildlife--possum, wallabies, so many owls and a wombat!

Anonymous, United States of America

We couldn’t fault it - the property was clean, spacious and had the most amazing views. The kitchen was fully equipped for us to cook and BBQ. The bathroom had heated floors and thoughtful touches like blankets for sitting out on the deck and easy to follow explanations about how to recycle everything. Super quiet and peaceful.

Amber, Australia

Peaceful and beautiful setting away from everything. Fabulous cabins with perfect view from the bed! Well appointed and friendly helpful staff.

Paula, Australia

Very little, read - nothing much. Few redeeming features save for the view.

Damon, Australia

The views from this property are absolutely spectacular! The Beach View villas are private and well equipped - all of the fittings are brand new. There is absolute peace and quiet day and night - just the sounds of nature. You are free to roam the property and explore.

Jenny, Australia

There was a coffee press and real coffee in the freezer so we didn't have to have instant in the morning.

Freycinet Retreat is a 'Land for Wildlife' property, located on 1200-acres in the center of the Freycinet Peninsula, adjacent to the National Park and only 14 minutes' drive from the famous Wineglass Bay. It is located 2.5 mi from the highway up a gravel driveway. The seclusion of the site facilitates wildlife spotting as does 1.7 mi of installed walking trail around the mountain.

These ocean view studios have stunning views of the peninsula, from the beaches to the Tasman sea, round to the Hazards mountain range and Great Oyster Bay.

Opened in November 2015, each Eco Studio is contemporary and has a 6-star energy rating. They are compact but are equipped with high-end finishes, including a well-equipped kitchenette with granite benches and a microwave/grill oven. A Smart LED TV, free internet access and an private bathroom with a shower and heated flooring are provided. Guests can relax on their private deck and gaze out to the ocean or watch the native wildlife grazing in front of your accommodations.

Located on Mt Paul, Freycinet Retreat is a 5-minute drive from Swanwick and a 10-minute drive from Coles Bay. Parking is provided right outside the property.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.2 for a two-person trip.

An Inside Look at Freycinet Retreat

Freycinet Retreat is a 1200acre bush property, with lots of wildlife, and some walking available. The views from all of the accommodation are spectacular, ranging from Ocean, Mountain, Bay, Lagoon and forest. It is a peaceful spot, which you can use as a base to explore the Freycinet area and then escape to from the crowds, or just stay on site and chill, as I tend to do (preferably with a carrot or two).

The bed was incredibly comfortable. Plenty of space in the room, well thought out. Very clean and a nice breakfast. The views were unforgettable and seeing echidnas and wallabies all around too.

“Frankly a rip- off. People need to be warned - avoid at all costs - far better options available”
- • Business trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Studio Cabin with Ocean View
- • Stayed 3 nights
Cabin tiny and badly designed, The site is isolated, scruffy and unattractive, barren with no sheltering trees, the cost simply outrageous for what was on offer. Cost more than city hotel. room tiny no dining or lounge area. Large expansive building on site unavailable for use. Worse bed unmade for 3 days. Not cleaned properly for 3 days. Bfast not replenished and in any case was an insult for the amount charged
Very little, read - nothing much. Few redeeming features save for the view.

The Retreat is still very new and we can see that very little landscaping has started so the grounds around the villas aren't attractive.
The views from this property are absolutely spectacular! The Beach View villas are private and well equipped - all of the fittings are brand new. There is absolute peace and quiet day and night - just the sounds of nature. You are free to roam the property and explore.

The road is a little bumpy, be careful in a rental car.
There was a coffee press and real coffee in the freezer so we didn't have to have instant in the morning.

Nothing bad. For travellers to keep in mind. Its quite far from everything, make sure you have all food & drink. We had to drive 20k to get a bottle of wine.
Everything. Super little cabins, had everything we needed. I even cooked mussles bought from the marine farm at the bottom of the driveway. Watched the stars at night, so many as no light pollution. Woke up to an epic sunrise. Me an my partner loved it.

Could not find info on web or emails that fully explained the location and site and what amenities there were. We were shocked by the ride up the hill the first time when we weren't sure we would make it. Of course, once we did it, we knew that the drive was fine, though long. Also, we expected more for the price--concierge? better snacks for purchase at all times? hot tub? Also, heated floor didn't come on 2nd day and hot water in shower was freezing and then burning throughout the shower.
Cleanliness, view, bed, heat,layout, staff, eco focus. Room was cozy and warm. View outstanding. Loved all the wildlife--possum, wallabies, so many owls and a wombat!
