Wish had stayed longer

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Apr 14, 2019
Nice quirky accommodation with fabulous views of the blowhole. Proximity to town was excellent so we could walk in for dinner and back easily. Beach and the rocks were all close by and facilities were excellent. Will come back here for longer than one night next time.

Stayed for 1 night very basic chalet.Would have been nice years ago but need to be updated. The good thing was it was nice and quiet. Over priced for what you get.My advice would be drive a bit further to St Helens much nicer and better accommodation.

Dear Milly1224,

Thank you for taking the time to submit a review. We are in the process of renovating some of the bungalows, this unfortunately is a timely process and cant all be done at once. We do hope that you will consider visiting again to see what improvements we have made.

Kind Regards,
Bicheno By The Bay

This is really good to see. Probably best seen at high tide. Easy to get to also. Was popular when we were there. You were able to get close to the blow hole to take good photos which was really helpful. Recommend going to see.

We spent two nights in one of the A-frame 1 bedroom cottages. Our cottage had a fabulous view over the water and balconies both back and front. Although the cottages may appear a little old, they are spacious and there was modern furniture and a separate bedroom. The kitchen was well equipped apart from a lack of cutlery (only one teaspoon) and had an oven as well as microwave and hotplates. The bathroom is a little dated but it was clean and there was the bonus of a washing machine. Pegs and clothes line also provided. We were visited by an echidna and wallabies. There is also undercover parking, The area we were in was very quiet given the amount of cottages in the park. Just one thing, perhaps the wooden flooring on the front verandah could be hosed a bit more to get off the bird poo. Disappointing that the council does not recycle so everything goes out in the one bin. Recommended.

My husband and I had been traveling around Tasmania with friends and had booked a 2 night stay here in Bicheno. We were very impressed with the Motel accommodation, very spacious and comfortable. It was lovely having fish and chips on the balcony overlooking the pond. We all wished that we had of stayed longer here as it was such a pretty place. This is one place I would certainly stay again. Would highly recommend

We hired 5 cabins for a friends/ family getaway. The cabins were older style (some had been refurbished) but clean and had everything that is needed. The pool area was great and the pool was refreshing especially on one of the hottest days in January. The location in Bicheno was perfect with only a short walk to the Township, Tavern and beach. It was also not far to drive to Apsley Waterhole and other attractions. We really enjoyed staying here and only wish it could have been longer - we would return.
