By the water

Is having easy access to the ocean or beach directly from your holiday house something that would make your Tasmanian holiday perfect? Then our range of holiday houses by the water are exactly what you need. These accommodations are just a short walk, or in some cases, merely a few steps from the water’s edge.

Imagine starting your day with a morning coffee in hand as you stroll to watch the sunrise over the ocean. Enjoy the simplicity of casting a fishing line from a nearby jetty or the thrill of launching a kayak right from your doorstep.

Booking a holiday house close to the water offers an unparalleled blend of relaxation and adventure.

The convenience of having the beach at your fingertips means you can easily spend your days swimming, exploring tide pools, or simply lounging on the sand. These waterside homes provide the perfect base for immersing yourself in the coastal lifestyle, where you can experience the rhythmic lull of the waves and the invigorating scent of the sea at any moment. Our holiday houses by the water promise to enhance your Tasmanian getaway, providing both tranquility and excitement, all within the stunning natural beauty of Tasmania’s coastline.

Welcome to Cloudy Bay Cabin’ a timber beach cottage secluded in paradise surrounded by South Bruny National Park and a mere stone’s throw from the shores of beautiful Cloudy Bay (Bruny Island, Australia).

Cloudy Bay Cabin is perfectly located for families with young children keen to splash in the shallows -or teenagers prepared to walk to the nearby surf break. Walkers will be delighted too -with kilometres of sandy beach and pristine coastline to explore, as well as, 350 acres of private forest to share with no one else except Bruny’s adorable wildlife.
