The resort had a large room, comfortable bed, large bathroom with good tub and shower, plenty of towels and toiletries, refrigerator and microwave, but no free internet. It could be purchased for $20.00 per day. The resort also had a spa, sauna, gold course, putting golf course, shops and restaurants. Staff were not too helpful and often not found when... more

Not sure why other reviews of this place is so bad. We really liked this resort and though it really felt like being in Switzerland. The views are nice. I like the cute little swiss chalets. It's not quite 4 stars but for the price we paid, we didn't expect it to be so good. There's an indoor pool and... more

We stayed here for 3 days in tiny chalet that had everything we could have needed. It felt really cosy, not too small.The design of the room was fantastic and the electric blanket was really nice along with a very effective air conditioner. The shower head on the otherhand was like being stuck with hundreds of pins every time we... more

Staff friendly and helpful. Had to get an upgrade (pay more money) as room booked (villa) far too small and inadequate for myself, my husband and teenage son. Stayed in apartment that was large with very poor bathroom, no washing machine - hole where it used to be, and the narrowest toilet (room) ever! No internet access except in the... more

You definitely need a car to drive to this resort, and it's actually a good 5-min drive after you turned off the Tamar Highway. My GPS did not accurately point out the location but I drove on. The resort is rather unique, and my wife booked the newer boutique studio chalet, as pointed in another review. The room is new,... more

This hotel complex is situated in a wonderful spot in the Tamar Valley north of Launceston, and has the novelty of being like a Swiss village. We stayed in a brand new king size spa villa which certainly was new and sparkling but had a few serious problems. If you like to sleep in the dark, don't go there! Each... more

My husband, myself and seven year old son stayed here for our first night in Tasmania. I booked after looking at their website which makes the place sound really nice and I was attracted by the extra activities, ie. jumping pillow, mini-golf etc. No where on the website was it mentioned that these activities were all additional cost (and very... more

Booked over the internet, thinking I was getting a great deal at $94.00 but was very disappointed with the room. Very small -- the door to the bath slides because there's not enough space for a regular door. No phone or internet access in the chalet, small t.v., 2 small plates in the 'kitchen' and they don't supply shampoo or... more

Booked Hillside Split Level Chalet which was an imaginative description at best. A pile of dirt outside front door does not make it a hillside and the upper story was a bunkroom. The lake is a miniature of what the website picture leads you to believe. Told we had to book table at restaurant by 7:30 as kitchen closed at... more

We cannot speak more highly of this resort. We stayed in one of the new boutique chalet's. "Loved it" - The room was beautiful. We dined at the restaurant and it was the best meal we had while we were in Tasmania. Tamar resort was in a great central location. more
