Everything met our expectations.

- Gregory (10/5): -
- Elizabeth (9/5): Quiet and comfortable. - It was very quiet and had a lovely view of the water. The bedrooms were good and the kitchen facilities, although a little different, were fine. Colette was amazing. Her greeting, way after dark was pleasant and friendly and when we discovered our error in not booking for a third night, she went above and beyond to sort out the problem with booking.com. Later she had to inform us that me friend had left her coat behind. Once again, Colette uncomplainingly posted it to her. Thank you Colette. You were brilliant. The bathroom was very small, but adequate. The step into the shower was a bit of a challenge for a person with mobility issues.
- Yasmin (10/5): We weee happy, comfortable and well looked after - Quiet, private, well stocked and beautifully situated
- Julie (10/5): Great! - Was very comfortable, clean with everything you could possibly think of was at the property. Colette the host was a lovely lady. The view from the property was fantastic. Highly recommend staying at Waterfront Abode There was nothing I didn’t like, everything was great!

Unit is clean and tidy and has an exceptionally well appointed kitchen. Comfy bed and plenty of room for the 2 of us. Good, quiet spot to use as a base for visiting the area . Nice garden down to River. Good pub food at a Hotel 5 minutes drive away Bathroom was a bit restricted and may be difficult for someone with mobility issues. However I see from previous reviews that it is being renovated in the new year.

- Edbert (9/5): Amazing 2 nights stay - Lots of kitchenware and cooking material provided. It was very comfortable to stay at peaceful location with an amazing mountain view. Colette was very welcoming and friendly. The bathroom sink is quite small and difficult to use. The hot water shower was a bit slow and overly sensitive.
- Rhonda (10/5): Beautiful tranquil apartment with water views and excellent host. - Lovely tranquil retreat A topper on the main bed would make it more comfortable
- Plenty (10/5): Very clean and comfortable - We supplied our own breakfast Nothing everything was good
- Latfullina (10/5): Exceptional - This is an awesome place. It's got everything you need for a comfortable stay. Colette is very helpful, attentive and friendly. She would go an extra mile for you to be comfortable. And her dogs are adorable! Loved everything! Thanks very much. Location is a little bit remote but for us it was not a problem as we had a car.
- Graham (9/5): What view to wake up to! - Anything you need , they got it The bathroom is a bit small
- Shantelle (10/5): Exceptional - The accommodation was clean and well appointed. It had everything you could want in an accommodation. The management bent over backwards to make sure we had a wonderful time in their accommodation. The view is fantastic. And while it isn't in Hobart city centre, I believe it was the best place to stay for my time in Hobart. It was quiet and very private and still close to everywhere. I highly recommend this accommodation for a stay in Hobart. I will be going back. Nothing
- Carol (10/5): Amazing views, comfortable, clean and a very accommodating host. -
- Stephen (9/5): The property was exactly what we needed & owner was very accomodating. - Location especially view was awesome, unit was very clean & organised. Owner willingly agreed to late checkout which was greatly appreciated. Is great for a couple or parents with one child, but would probably be too small for any more people.
- Kalirai (10/5): A beautiful scenic tranquil spot with just a short drive into Hobart. - We had wonderful views over looking the water as in its description and was very relaxing beautiful views of Mount Wellington. We liked everything there wasn’t anything we did not like about this property.
- Karen (10/5): Peaceful haven - Loved the views, garden and facilities. Quiet space.
Everything you needed and more. Nothing not too like.
- Nikhila (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tom (10/5): Exceptional - Location. Views. Dolphins passing by and fabulous Colette gave us binoculars to observe them. Everything fine.
- Simon (9/5): I would happily return to this accommodation. - The property was in a great location (overlooking the River Derwent) very spacious and come with a well provided kitchen.
There was plenty of parking, good access to the shops and the host was very friendly and welcoming. There wasn't anything that I didn't particularly like.
- Kerry (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mcdonald (9/5): Superb -
- Michele (10/5): Otago Bay Magic - Tucked away overlooking Otago Bay I found a gem of a property to stay when I travel to Hobart. Quiet location, amazing views and gardens and everything you need for a stay and a little bit more. Highly rate and recommend this property and would encourage you to take time to sit, reflect and relax. Everything is close by but just note no restaurants or shops at Otago Bay that I found, but to be honest that is the charm. You only have to drive 5-10 minutes and you have shops and restaurants galore.
- Kim (10/5): Exceptional - Host,view,furry baby dogs, Like evrrything😁👍
- Shirley (10/5): Enjoy - What a lovely house with beautiful mountain views and river views!
We enjoyed staying there so much. Everything is so good.
- Kate (10/5): Beautiful view and excellent host - The host, Colette is very nice. Very helpful and warm. Lovely person. View is excellent. Though the place is not very big, it is sufficient for my niece and myself. Cosy and can see that Colette is a thoughtful person, having 2 luggage stands, a step into the bath stall, offered us, full cream milk for our hot beverages though we did decline, etc. We are very happy that we have chosen this property as our 1st accommodation in our very first trip to Tasmania Nothing we can think of. Haha
- Carolyn (10/5): It was cozy, inviting with a magnificent view, well equipped kitchen and a lovely host! -

- Amanda (10/5): Exceptional - Accommodation was beautiful Colette and her Dogs are lovely and very warm n welcoming beautiful views over the river highly recommend Nothing
- Elena (10/5): Exceptional -
- Joanna (7/5): quaint with lovely views. more like one and a half bedrooms though - beautiful views not really 2 bedrooms. one bedroom only had a screen for privacy. bathroom sink v small ended up using the kitchen sink to wash up
- Mike (10/5): Lovely memorable stay - Lovely clean welcoming accomodation. Unusual layout with screened off bed area but the views more than made up for it. Wake up to a waterside view with birdlife. Handy location for the city. Property would benefit from a portable heater for the bedroom(s). Air con more than adequate for kitchen / living area but bedrooms on cool side.
- Brunda (9/5): Superb -
- Martin (10/5): Exceptional - Everything about this property was first rate.
Peacefully away from the bright lights of the city but only a short drive. Very cosy. Will certainly try to stay again next time we're down that way. Nothing not to like!
- Matthews (10/5): Great stay. - View was gorgeous, hostess was lovely and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. No comment
- Elizabeth (9/5): Beautiful position with a great host. - The location provided easy access to the city etc A small bathroom, very tight for the large males travelling.
- Nikki (10/5): Exceptional -
- Rebecca (8/5): Very good - Loved being able to warm the quaint interior on a very cold night and to be able to warm the bed with an electric blanket. Enjoyed awakening to a magnificent view over the Derwent River with Mt Wellington saying a sunny good morning. Tea towel under microwave getting caught in door when closing it. I'd suggest placing a drawer liner under the microwave, cut to the exact base size of the microwave.
- Kerrie (8/5): Very convenient, comfortable and warm apartment with all you need for self catering. - Collette was a welcoming host.
- Henny (10/5): Great value for money - Very friendly lady very clean and beautiful location
- Lorraine (8/5): I really enjoyed my stay Easy to access. - Host Collette was great. I had issie getting key lock box open and she was there straight away to help me. Gave me a tour of the place and showed me how things operated. Much appreciated. Quiet location looking out over the river and looking at Hobarts most famous landmark, Mt Wellington. Beautiful. Nothing really.
- Karen (8/5): Our 2 night stay at the Waterfront Abode was great, with wonderful views and comfortable beds! - The location was lovely, a great view of the mountains, the water and Hobart.
Our host, Colette, was very friendly, and very helpful, and went our of her way to ensure we were happy there. The accommodation is very comfortable, with extra amenities, such as a mobility stool for my elderly mother so she could safely get in and out of the shower, and all the items necessary to make the stay comfortable, even a dyson hand held vacuum, which came in handy to clean up the car. The decorations in the apartment were all very interesting too, such a feast for the eyes! There was also plenty of space, so it felt more like a home than a hotel. A luggage stand would have been handy.
- Benjamin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Christina (10/5): Beautiful location and comfortable rooms ..... - It was a beautiful location. Easy to find and close to Hobart. The view was magnificent and we overlooked the river. Colette was a lovely host and we had a few great chats. The rooms were very clean and tidy and the beds were very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again. Nothing at all.

- Sandy (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jun (10/5): A chill and relaxing place. - We enjoyed our stay very much. It’s about 15-20 minutes drive away from Hobart city, in a very pretty and peaceful seaside town. Colette has put a lot of effort and personal touches to make guests feel comfortable. The place is very clean. The basin in the bathroom is a little bit small.

- Antony (9/5): Superb - Delightful base for my family and I for a few days. The apartment was very well equipped and comfortable. The view over the river with mighty Wellington in the background was spectacular. Parking outside the apartment. Collette was extremely welcoming and as she lives in the same block, she was always there if needed. ( We didn't need anything lol) in other words, I would certainly stay there again. Nothing
