Everything!! The view was breathtaking! The spa, the location, amazing!!!!! Felt very spoilt getting to call this place home while we explored Cole's Bay.....very luxurious 😍

We booked this property to have a fire experience and were enjoying it so much that we extended for an extra night. The house is beautiful with a great view, well equipped and tastefully decorated, and has very comfy beds.

The living space was amazing, great to spend time in together. The view was spectacular and it was so close to Freycinet National Park and the amenities at Coles Bay.

This property is amazing!! Clean best position beautiful views utterly stunning

If you’re looking for a place to stay along the east coast of Tasmania, look no further! My husband and I were here for our honeymoon and didn’t want to leave behind this amazing house! The Observatory had thought of every little detail that made our stay perfect.

What an amazing place to stay, the house is exceptional with the most spectacular views of The Hazards. Cannot fault this house. Top quality decor and appliances. We had everything we needed.

Convenient location, lovely aspect, large lounge room space and kitchen, cosy window seats, outdoor hot tub and pool table!

Amazing location, very high end property. They have everything you could want in a holiday house and more beds were super comfortable with plenty of bedding and linen. We've already booked again for next year.

We had a fantastic stay at The Observatory! Very well equipped and no need to go out for dinner with a view like that and an amazing house interior! It doesn’t get much better! Thank you to the owners for trusting us with your beautiful home.

Location is superb but no staff there place. Cooking Gas is not working and
