Hands down the BEST house we have ever stayed in. Everything you could ever think of needing was there. The views were to die for, and we loved spending our late afternoons on the beach, with not a soul to be seen! We would 100% return to this beautiful home. Our favourite stop in Tasmania
This property is Great
Only downfall was that i had thought i had got a property with a hot tub to relax in of an afternoon as i didnt read to the bottom of the description stating that the hot tub is currently not available to guests.
Hot tub needs to be taken off the amenities if guests are not able to use it.
Other than that this place is great. Beautiful outlook and has everything you would ever need plus more.
Very relaxing spot

Overall ok.
Pretty nice place and great access to beach. We booked to ensure we had a spa. Which was out of order. I had to call and was told i would be called back. This did not occur so i recalled. They pro ider gave us one night off accom. However, had we known we just would of booked a place in Bicheno; instead because of facilities we booked here and then did not have all the facilities and drove into Bicheno daily (40mins). Otherwise place was nice. Baby gate is broken so safety issue to some extent on stairs.
From the moment we arrived at Willoah Retreat, we were captivated by the breathtaking surroundings. Nestled in a picturesque setting, the house offered not only stunning views but also an atmosphere of serene tranquility that made our holiday truly memorable.
The house itself was a delight. Every room was beautifully appointed, blending style with comfort. The attention to detail in the decor and furnishings spoke volumes about the care the owners take to ensure a welcoming and luxurious environment. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed to cook and enjoy our meals, which added a lovely touch of homeliness.
Our days were spent exploring the beautiful surroundings and enjoying the peaceful ambiance of the house. Evenings were just as pleasant, with living areas that are perfect for relaxing and spending quality time with family and friends.
Overall, our stay at Willoah Retreat was nothing short of wonderful. It provided the perfect mix of beauty, comfort, and relaxation. We left feeling refreshed and grateful for the time spent in such a lovely setting. I highly recommend this holiday house to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway amidst natural beauty.
We had a brilliant stay at Willoahs. The house is very comfortable, spacious and clean. Loved the well equipped kitchen and the amazing view. Lovely garden too, complete with a path to the beach metres away!
Was a lovely place great open kitchen and lounge for a group, wish the sauna got a bit hotter than 35 was looking forward to a dip in the sea then a hot sauna
