Beachfront vacation rentals in South Hobart

An incredible space ... the gentle lap of the water and soft breeze in the trees soothed our souls. The home was welcoming and comfortable and we enjoyed every minute including some very restful sleep. It was well-appointed and we wanted for nothing. Thank for sharing this beautiful place with us.

Fabulous place for two couples. Great views of the River Derwent and the fantastic Mount Wellington. Easy to walk to main area of interest in Hobart. Otherwise not hard to get an uber cheaply to other tourist venues.

Such a beautiful place. Very comfortable, warm and relaxing. The views were amazing, the sunrises next level. Facilities were great. Beds very comfy. Gardens were so pretty. Kitchen easy to use. Lounge room and woodfire so warm and cosy. A lovely place to spend Mother's day weekend. Thank you

We really enjoyed staying at Lillian’s, it’s such a nice place, lovely family and perfectly located

Louise's Opossum Bay house is the perfect cozy and quiet spot. I take my dogs on beach walks everyday. Everyone is friendly and Louise has been so accomodating and responsive. There's so much natural light and the house stays nice and warm during winter.

Fabulous! Just like holidays when I was a kid - so nostalgic! Loved the 50s colours & decor & the thoughtful touches like hot choc & marshmallows, which were most appreciated after a long drive. Plenty of cookware and crockery, a lovely hot shower, comfy lounges and beds. Great range of DVDs to suit all tastes. and so many beautiful places to visit around the peninsular. Best of all - that beautiful beach through the back gate!! Really appreciate that you allow pets & have fully fenced yard. My little dogs had a fantastic time frolicking on the beach as did I. We definitely want to come back!

The perfect little nest away. I booked here very last minute on my way to Tasmania for the first time because my friend who was hosting me got COVID. Deborah was really helpful with tips and making my stay super comfortable after I told her I was going to have to navigate with a hire car in the night and was a little nervous. Such a peaceful location in a gorgeous part of Tasmania, would book again !

A great place to stay in the gorgeous Dennes Point. I'd stayed here before with a friend so I knew what to expect. Great touches of character, the board games were a hit and so lovely to be able to light a fire. Lovely walking distance to the calm waters of Nebraska beach, if you're there on a weekend make sure you book in for the best wood fired pizzas at the local cafe.

The photos truly don’t do James’ place justice! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by how stunning the house and its surroundings were. Nestled in a peaceful spot with sweeping views of the water, this home quickly became our sanctuary. We spent most of our time soaking up the scenery from the balcony or wandering down to the waterfront - it was pure bliss. The layout of the house is incredibly thoughtful, offering both comfort and style in every corner. Every detail, from the decor to the natural light pouring through the windows, made the space feel warm and welcoming. It was the perfect blend of relaxation and luxury. We were genuinely sad to leave, but one thing’s for sure - we’ll definitely be back. Staying here made our visit to Tasmania even more special. Thank you, James, for sharing such a beautiful home with us!

We really enjoyed our stay here. We are planning on coming back.

A peaceful stay in a well appointed house with all the mod cons. Lovely outlook over the River Derwent. Was able to relax in front of the fire and watch the world go by. Jack was a great host.

What an amazing place to stay! Photos didn’t do the space justice- absolutely beautiful. Extremely clean and tidy, presented beautifully. Had everything you need for a weekend or even longer. Loved the fact there was a washing machine. Easy walking distance to Hope Beach with some great spots for photography including astrophotography and the allusive Aurora Australis. Easy drive to Hobart and other local attractions while enjoying a more secluded location. Supermarket and other amenities also within easy driving distance. Marco was very responsive with messages, very helpful with any issues and an overall great host. Will definitely return when able. Highly recommend

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A peaceful gem between city and nature Tinderbox Cottage was the perfect winter escape. Tucked away in a serene, leafy setting, it felt like our own private hideaway—yet it was ideally located for exploring both Hobart and the breathtaking wilderness of Bruny Island. The cottage itself was beautifully appointed and cozy, with a fireplace that made every evening feel like a warm hug after a day of exploring. We loved waking up to birdsong and water views, and it was just a short drive to local wineries, walking trails, and the Kettering ferry. If you’re looking for a place that balances comfort, nature, and convenience, this is it. We’ll definitely be back.

Very nice and fantastic home

We absolutely loved our stay at Blessington Beachside Retreat! The place is super comfortable and has such a relaxed vibe, with big windows that show off incredible views of the Derwent River, Bruny Island, and even Mount Wellington in the distance. The house had everything we needed — plenty of space, a cosy wood heater that kept us warm at night, and a great kitchen that made cooking easy. It really felt like a home away from home. The location is peaceful and beautiful, and the beach is just a short stroll away. Communication with the hosts was smooth, and they clearly put a lot of care into the place. If you’re after a quiet getaway with stunning views and all the little touches that make a trip feel special, this is the spot. We’re already planning our return!

A fantastic location right on the beach. The interiors are tastefully decorated with a well-designed layout, plenty of areas to chill out, and ample storage space for a longer term stay. We also enjoyed the selection of books and magazines. There’s a fabulous jacuzzi bathtub in the master bathroom, and it was so relaxing to go for walks on the beach and fall asleep to the rhythmic sound of waves. It’s well worth stopping at a larger supermarket before you get there to stock up with any food or other supplies you might need, so you can maximise your peaceful and relaxing stay.

This was an absolutely superb stay. We would definitely come back and cannot fault it. The location is stunning, the home is beautiful and Karen is very responsive. We had a wonderful Easter long weekend at Hakari and felt right at home. It is spacious, serene and really inviting. Thank you to our lovely host.

What an incredible oasis! 10 best friends enjoyed a magical birthday weekend at Saltcotes. Incredible location and views, extremely well stocked house and a home that felt like home. Morning swim followed by lunch with a view - it won’t disappoint. Cannot wait to return in the future.

Absolutely blown away by our stay, everything was perfection. Our host Nancy’s communication was great, and the detailed, helpful information provided before and during our stay made everything so seamless. The main house tour was such a delight, setting the tone for the incredible experience. As for the location, it's truly heaven on earth. I honestly believe I will never stay anywhere prettier! The house itself is styled to absolute perfection, with insane attention to detail in every corner. But without a doubt, it was that breathtaking main view and the stunning, color-coded bookcase that truly stole the show and captured my heart. Thank you for creating such an unforgettable and beautiful escape! We can't wait to return some day!

This listing is beautifully situated right in front of the river—it's peaceful listening to the waves crashing onto the shore. Yet, it's conveniently located just 15 minutes from downtown Hobart. We especially loved the playground right next to the property, which our kids thoroughly enjoyed. The house is clean and equipped with all the necessary amenities. While items like a highchair need to be requested in advance, the team was very responsive and met our needs promptly. We’ll definitely be back next time!

We were blown away by this gorgeous property! The house was absolutely idealic for our group with stunning views, spacious rooms and fire wood ready to go on these colder months. But the real compliments go to the hosts, who were so accomodating, responsive and proactive! We never felt like a bother and they were so happy to make our stay as comfrotable as possible! We absolutely fell in love with Roches Beach and will be back for sure!

Ben’s place in Deep Bay is wonderful, the location is truly stunning. We stayed there for three nights for a family reunion and loved it. Some of the elder family members did have a few issues, such as Ben lives on site and came into his office at 10:30pm, shining a light into the bedroom. There are a few little quirks such as no coffee, sugar, or oil, and an oven that doesn’t fit a lot of the dishes available, but it was still a wonderful stay.

We were traveling as a family group of ten and this house accommodated us so well. The location is so beautiful and we loved exploring the local region and then coming home to wander the beach each evening. It was so peaceful and relaxing. The host was friendly, responsive and helpful

Absolutely loved staying here for the second time! Large living and dining space for our big family to enjoy. So close to the amazing beach, just awesome. Thankyou again
