Family-friendly vacation rentals in Boat Harbour

Eagle Nest III is hands down the best Airbnb I’ve ever stayed at. The view is breathtaking, the rooms are beautiful, and the whole place feels like a dream come true. I was honestly amazed — didn’t expect to find a place this magical. The host was fabulous and gave super clear instructions. The outdoor hot tub is a must — easy to use and perfectly placed to soak in the stunning mountain views. The road to the unit is easy to access, and once you’re there, the peace and calm are unmatched. There’s a cozy fireplace with plenty of firewood, so no worries about keeping warm. Plus, the nearby farm animals (chickens, cows, bunny!) make the whole experience even more delightful. I left feeling refreshed, happy, and already thinking about my next visit. Highly, highly recommended! :)

This is the 2nd time we have stayed here and loved every minute of it! Jason was a great host. Thankyou!

the place was cleaned beyond belief and equiped with every possible iotem anyone could want. Brilliant

Exceeded all our expectations, the cottage oozed charm and made you feel right at home. All our needs were catered for in the kitchen. The wood heater worked a treat with great dry wood. The view is next level you could waist your day away looking at the ever changing mood of Mother Nature. Would highly recommend and we will be returning.

If you're looking for a place to breathe, relax, contemplate, reflect, play, chat and spend quality time with family and friends, Eagles Nest 2 is perfect. With Mt Roland and a big wide sky as the grand backdrop view from all angles of the house, and with cathedral height windows celebrating every inch of the view, being inside and outside feels seamless. Eagles Nest is an experience. All the rooms are themed and the decor interestingly eclectic. The beds are very comfy. The place is clean. The kitchen has everything one needs. And then there's the outdoor spa (where you run your outdoor bath) tucked discreetly away for a relaxing soak. I think spectacular is the best word to describe the view and the night sky. We even saw a meteor shower from our bed which will be forever etched in my mind, with Mt Roland silhouetted in the background and a squillion million stars twinkling in the night sky (admittedly it was 4.30am - I'd woken to visit the bathroom - lucky timing!). So nice!

A beautiful quiet farm stay. Susan and Frank were a pleasure to deal with. An abundance of farm fresh eggs which we turned into the yummiest breakfast omelets. A beautiful garden setting.

We had a great stay at Ruby Soho Villas. When traveling in a group of 8 Adults and 6 children under three it was great to find a place that accommodated all of us. we had a fantastic stay and would highly recommend Ruby Soho Villas

Beautiful home nested in the Cradle mountain area , it was a 30 min drive to the Cradle mountain walks . Can view Mt.Roland from the kitchen window and more views from the bedroom . Saw a lot of Pademelons minding their business around the home . Fully functional kitchen and 20 mins away to the nearest grocery store. Sandra is a great host and recommended some real good places to explore . Visit if you seeking a Raw experience , it’s just you and the beauty of Tasmania around .

Came to Devonport for a Volleyball tournament and had to find a place for our whole team and Alice’s place was perfect. It was a cosy stay and we all felt very comfortable. It was right near the beach and close to all amenities, would definitely recommend.

Million Dollar views on the hilltop in Penguin, the house is a treasure trove of music history. Gerard has thought of everything, including breakfast supplies with fresh fruits and yoghurt. Thankyou for a beautiful stay in a lovely little quaint town. We will be back again :) Regards Mandy

A gorgeous heritage home that takes you right back to colonial times, especially the setting on top of the hill and the stately bedrooms. You’ll be transported back to the 1800s! The grounds and surrounds are spectacular, alive with wildlife. Infinite peaceful walks by the beach or on the grounds, with national parks not too far away. We had a perfect 5 days here, and would love to visit again.

It was such a delight having a few days getaway at Goat Island Bungalow. Katherine has provided a very comfortable, well equipped cottage to stay in. Direct access to the water and Goat Island is a bonus, stunning sunrises and even seeing/hearing the train at the bottom of the garden was a unique experience. Would highly recommend this accommodation to future guests. Thanks Katherine.

This was our first time staying in Waratah. It is a beautiful part of Tasmania, being right on the edge of the amazing Tarkine and near the spectacular Cradle Mountain. And staying at Joanne’s place made it all worthwhile. Jo’s place is very modern and cosy. It has all the amenities you need, including emergency food supply if required (which you supplement if you use it). Jo’s place is in walking distance of the main street and you can go through the wetlands to see the platypus on the way. The local Bischoff Hotel serves good food, which Jo put us onto. Jo’s communication was very clear and helpful. We can highly recommend Jo’s place.

Great place to stay. A short walk to the beach or a longer one to the creek which is great for families with young kids. Little Sister General Store is great for lunch or dinner. The property is clean, beds are comfy, shower was hot, kitchen was well stocked. Overall, a very comfortable stay. Will be back when we’re next in the area.

Lovely home, tastefully decorated with all the amenities for a very comfortable stay. Great location and superb views of the beach and The Nut. Everything that Stanley has to offer, and there’s lots, is at your fingertips. Great pub up the road, as well as cafes. Great place to base yourself to explore the wonderful north-west Tasmanian region and the outstandingly beautiful and unique Tarkine wilderness.

The place was very nice, not far from Cradle Mountain, a very comfortable little chalet with additional heating, John is very kind, he explained to us very well how to access the accommodation (it's very simple) and the surrounding area despite our late arrival! Thank you John, I recommend!

This was a great base for exploring the Cradle Mountain area and surrounds. The kids were excited for this stop on our trip for the pool and it did not disappoint, a great highlight with a stunning view of Mt Roland sparkling at sunset. John was wonderful with suggestions of how to enjoy the property including helping with platypus spotting and accessing the silver mine. A great spot for families with so much to enjoy 😉

The cabin is set in a beautiful location, surrounded by bush and the impressive Mt Roland. We felt very comfortable in the lovely surroundings and also enjoyed a swim in the indoor pool. Would definitely recommend staying here.

The cabin was comfortable and situated in a beautiful environment, with lots of wildlife. John was very friendly. We had a great stay!
