A slow stay high above Hobart's harbour | Del Sol

The Canopy is the sun-drenched upper level of Del Sol Treehouse, perched high among the trees with sweeping views across Hobart's harbour. Upon arrival, it does something to you. The soft light, the moody sky, the shimmering harbour, the calming quiet. Unpacking can wait. Brew something warm, sink into the daybed and let the hours pass unnoticed. This uniquely Tasmanian experience is only 10 minutes from Hobart, making it a perfect base for exploring, or simply settle in and don't leave at all.
