Guest Reviews
- Stuart (9/5): Very relaxing - Brilliant location.
- Gaynor (8/5): It was a lovely place, spacious and clean. - Great location and views Light in stairwell didn’t work
We had difficulty closing and opening the shutters in the sunset bedroom
The cold water taps in sunset shower and hand basin would come off when used
We feel these issues are potentially dangerous
- Innes (9/5): - Loved the bedrooms and ensuites and the view was beautiful. Cooking facilities were a bit light on and the fridge could have been bigger.
Laundry facilities would have been great too.
- Brenda (9/5): relaxing & great location. - The location was great & outlook just perfect.
we spent lot of time on the amazing verandah.
so relaxingl
thanks
brenda edelmaier nothing
- Mark (10/5): Beautiful. Should have stayed longer. - Location, size of rooms including bathrooms. Nothing
- GILLIAN (8/5): Most relaxing place in Tasmania.... beautiful walks. - Plenty of condiments but no actual breakfast foods. There was an unwashed mug in the cupboard and one shower head was broken which caused a major flood. This was dealt with immediately by oncall staff.
- Neil (6/5): We enjoyed staying in Bicheno. - Good location with views. Beds comfortable. Spacious. Broken shower head. Stairwell light not working. Lack of kitchen appliances - bar fridge & cooking facilities not adequate. Not made aware of the building having no lift until after booking.
- Helen (9/5): Clean, comfortable, roomy apartment in a great location with beautiful views to wake up to. - Excellent location within walking distance of facilities and attractions with great views from the living area and bedrooms. Very roomy. A couple of small things. There was no small brush and pan for keeping the floor tidy. The fridge was small and the seal was deteriorating which made it difficult to close properly. It would have been nice if there'd been a few more things in the pantry but that is a minor point. We loved our time in the apartment and in Bicheno.
- William (10/5): Nice apartment, clean, easy to get keys from lockbox. Close to town and beach - Very spacious, modern and clean. Nice balcony with view of water. Close to town, we walked to the shore. Nothing
- Miriam (5/5): View was beautiful but facilities were a disappointment. - There was no fridge , just a small bar fridge that didn’t close properly, no stove or oven.
What was there had seen better days, eg the camp potable oven and portable hot plate. There was a coffee machine but few pods and no milk frother. Two glasses??
Property was over priced.
- Angelika (8/5): - Die Lage ist hervorragend. Die Ausstattung ist sehr gut. Die Küche könnte besser genutzt werden wenn mehr Töpfe und vor allen dazugehörige Deckel vorhanden wären. Ein Küchensieb wäre auch sehr schön.
- Bassett-Smith (10/5): -
- Sarah- Jayne (9/5): - Location and view from the property were excellent. It was surprisingly spacious. Walking distance to the town. There was nothing to not like about the property.

- Rebecca (10/5): -
- Yasaman (10/5): -
- Wendy (8/5): -
- Natalie (7/5): A pleasant stay in a spacious apartment with a spectacular view. Very suitable for two couples but some maintenance is - Location and size of apartment Mould in the bathrooms, dirty and damp in the stair area which also very dark at night with no light. A larger bench where the air drying is located would make cooking much easier. It is needing some maintenance, new mattresses and a refresh. Major water issues on the balcony as it was a swimming pool on our arrival as water falls to the door. Loved the bath
- Samantha (10/5): Exceptional views, apartment set up, cleanliness and communication - A lovely place. Beautiful views, perfectly set up and exceptionally clean. Communication was so quick and easy as well. That we didn’t realise how great it was and book for longer!
- ROBYN (8/5): - SHOWER HEAD IN BATHROOM WOULD NOT STAY UP. KEPT FALLING DOWN.
TV IN LOUNGE NOT VERY USER FRIENDLY (REMOTE)
- Matthew (7/5): Nice - Great view and very comfy Blinds did not shut in bedroom and shower base leaked in one of bathrooms .
- Peta (9/5): -
- Gloria (5/5): - Size of the rooms There were no lights on the outside of the building when we arrived and no lights in the hallway to the upper level. We had to carry our luggage while holding our phone torches to see where we were going- very unsafe in the dark. It does not cost a lot to install sensor lights in the outside of the premises, nor to have working lights in the hallway. Would not return to his property nor recommend it to others.
- Berry (9/5): Enjoyed the stay. Great view from the balcony and rooms,whales passing and other sea life - N/A The stairs to the top floor was an effort
- Christine (8/5): - This was beautifully appointed accommodation which met all of our needs. The view was terrific, and the property was within walking distance to local restaurants, cafes and attractions. I would definitely recommend this property. Guests need to be aware that there are stairs to access the property.
- graham (9/5): - Super layout, well equipped, easy access
- Christie (10/5): Fantastic apartment close to town. Highly recommended! - The apartment was beautiful, spacious, clean and very comfortable. The views were spectacular and it is close to everything in town. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend staying here to anyone.
- Kathryn (9/5): Above expectations - Beautiful location and accommodation was amazing No light down the stairs
- Jessica (10/5): -
- James (8/5): - Nice large apartment with great views. Was hard to find as the numbering on the road was not great - the property is also called something different. The stairs were a little steep particularly when carrying big bags
- Joerg (9/5): incredible location, beautiful large apartment with 2 bedrooms, stunning views and close to everythi - loved the accomodation, location was incredible. access was easy and the views were beautiful. the mini fridge was turned off, pulled out of the cupboard and had towels surrounding. This was a bit annoying as we had fresh produce in the car that required refridgeration and as we had no information (even after sending a message on booking.com to the host) so we bought a cooler bag and ice to keep our food fresh. this was quite a let down as even a message to say it was ok to turn on would have been great.
- Linda (9/5): Superb - Very well appointed Shutters wouldn’t close
- Jason (10/5): Exceptional -

- Anna (7/5): Great views, comfortable and spacious room, close to the main attractions - Great location and views The kitchen is a strange set up - small fridge and no hot plate or oven, other than portable devices. It was as described but given the spacious kitchen, it is strange that it is not better equiped

Please note the property has no washing machine or stove top. Only one key provided.

- Aki (9/5): Superb -
- Glen (7/5): Cracking location with sensational water views. - Location is amazing with beautiful views over Waub's Harbour Body wash dispensers didn't work, one was empty. Showers leaked, soaking clothes that were on the bathroom floor. No bread knife which was odd.

- Michelle (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dominica (9/5): Superb - as advertised. calm, quiet peaceful stay. well equipped and good location kitchen is really basic given such a lovely spacious kitchen area.
- Desmond (10/5): Exceptional -
- Robyn (6/5): Pleasant - Location was good. Upstairs unit does not have a washing machine or dryer. The ceilings and walls are very thin therefore you can heard the people downstairs.
- Kuan-yi (8/5): Very good - Beautiful interiors, large comfy bed, spa bath tub ocean view, close to cafes Soap dispenser didn't work properly (but was still usable), bath tap nozzle was loose, expired milk left in the fridge by other guests?
- Suzanne (9/5): Great place. - View to the water was simply fantastic. Location was good with everything you need within walking distance. If you have an issue with stairs, then this property going to be a challenge as the apartment I stayed in was on the third floor - so lots of stairs.
- Hayes (8/5): Was a great getaway in a beautiful location and wonderful accommodation. - Great location and two bathrooms. -
- Nui (10/5): Exceptional -
- Libby (9/5): Loved our stay!! Clean, well appointed, amazingly spacious bedrooms. Everything we needed in a great location -
- Susan (10/5): Would stay again! - Central, beautiful views, large, open, sunny, comfortable, everything you need! Kitchen was lovely , clean! Light! but just no cooking potential.microwave, small fridge for a huge apartment , no cooktop even, no exhaust fan .toaster yes jug basics , just strange for such a beautiful apartment.certainly has the space!!!
- Patricia (9/5): Beautiful views and comfortable stay - Location, clean well appointed and spacious
- James (2/5): Not suitable and way below par - we were moved out. - Location excellent and spacious apartment. Fridge didn’t work so we couldn’t stay, cleaning hit and miss, nails sticking out of walls, not enough towels, door handle falling off and one bathroom out of order (which we were told about). Kitchen equipment very poor so not really a self catering apartment. We were switched to another apartment called Diamond Skies which was beautiful and actually cheaper. If you are booked in this apartment I would ask to be moved - not a good experience.
- Roslynne (8/5): Very good -
- Susan (9/5): Great stay, great accommodation, walking distance away from everything, the only things that were missing for us as a fa - We had a great stay, the apartment was very comfortable and walking distance away from everything (beach, supermarket, blow hole …) As travelling with a child we were missing a stove and a washing machine - other than that, our stay was awesome and perfect!!
- Darren (10/5): Glorious Bicheno - The apartment is fabulous
Such a well-appointed apartment
Close to town, short walk to Waub Everything was perfect
- Lily (9/5): Superb -
- Margot (9/5): Lovely apartment with fantastic water views - Lovely apartment with fantastic views. It’s very close to shops and the beach. There are 3 flights of stairs to walk up to get to the apartment but the view is worth it! The shower and bath in the 2nd bathroom couldn’t be used while we were there due to a leak.
- Ricci (8/5): Lovely - The location was amazing. Views of the water and within walking distance to the main street and the beach. When we arrived there was a sign saying the second bathroom did not have working shower and bath.
There was no body wash.
- Singhal (9/5): nice cozy and comfortable stay - This property had the best views one can expect, wonderful balconies with outdoor furniture and Gas BBQ, Huge and plush bedroom, nice living area.
We enjoyed the bath Jacizzi spa. Microwave was missing as mentioned in booking, Induction cooktop was portable and not very convenient to use. So, was Electric over/grill that was placed under the cabinet with no ventilation. Lastly, Laundry was missing and had to carry our luggage to 3 flight of stairs.
One of the bath/shower was not working but perhaps such issues do occur and I am not much concerned about this.
- Russell (9/5): Superb - Wonderful location, very roomy, great heating/cooling (allowing variation in temp from one room to another). One bathroom had non-fun ruining shower and tub which we were not notified of. We were 2 unrelated couples so having to have one of the couples traipse through the other’s bedroom to use a shower was awkward. If we had been aware we could at least have all brought robes.
- Rosie (8/5): Very good - Location was amazing. As there was no laundry, we washed at the laundromat, but didn't have a clothes airer to dry them on. That would have been handy.
- Dwayne (10/5): Exceptional - Place location all good The fridge is to small for a family,
And need a washing machine for summer.
- Irene (10/5): Wonderful apartment made for a lovely stay. - Beautiful apartment in terms of layout, decor, furnishings. Location was good with a beautiful sea view. Kitchen provisions excellent including small things like olive oil, gladwrap. A box of tissues would have been nice to have! The pillows were too high!

- Sue (10/5): Exceptional -
- Annie (8/5): Such a great stay, spacious, clean and great location! - So spacious and great facilities! N/a
- Fiona (9/5): Superb - The layout was superb, two massive rooms each with private bathrooms, two decks, and plenty of room in the living areas. Fantastic location only a few hundred metres from the main shopping strip. Amazing outlook and so quiet. Bliss The stairs were hard work with suitcases but the view made it all worthwhile!
- Anne (9/5): Peaceful Bicheno - Fantastic location with wrap around views from decks. Very spacious and comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms also include a spa bath. Close to town and cafes. Handy location to visit Freycinet NP and also Bay of Fires. Would definitely recommend. Not much...a microwave oven would be handy, as would washer / dryer, but that didn't detract from our stay.
- Paul (9/5): Terrific accomodation with ocean views & 5 - 10 minute walk to few town shops & cafes bakery & hotel - We were 2 couples travelling & each had virtually same spacious bedroom with spa bath ensuite & fantastic ocean room with kitchen/ meals table & lounge/ entrance in middle with great ocean views from all 3 areas. Can’t be helped but the 2 storey stair climbing to room.
- Sasha (10/5): Perfect - Excellent accomodation. 10/10. Spotlessly clean , massive bedrooms, biggest bathroom I’ve ever seen, wonderful facilities, great views from every room, so close to town, . Couldn’t ask for better. It was truly awesome and made our stay in Bicheno very special. Thanks so much Emily. Nothing. It was perfect
- Reagan (9/5): Superb -
- Marlene (9/5): Lovely accommodation for couples in a great location with an ocean view. Loved it - Location and view was great.
Perfect for 2 couples
Large comfortable rooms and lovely bathrooms There was an issue with one of the bathrooms, the shower overflowed and the bath was also not in use in that bathroom.
The agent was very good and responsive and we made it work.
Would have liked more kitchen facilities like an oven / more hotplates.
Just know you can only make basic meals with the kitchen facilities, which is fine for a short stay.
- Nelson (9/5): Superb -

King size bed was very comfortable & good shower & bath - it was double glazed so very warm & toasty - great location with good balcony to watch the sunset kitchen was lovely but only had a portable cook top & small oven in a cupboard- it heated food but wasn’t a microwave
no instructions on how to use the spa bath
the shutters in the bedroom were a bit hard to manoeuvre
- Teresa (9/5): fantastic 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment in a fabulous location. perfect for friends or family holidays. - the location was excellent close to eateries especially the crayfish shack. It was clean and had all the amenities you needed.
Both bedrooms were huge with wonderfully comfortable beds. both bathrooms were big with great showers and spa baths. I didn’t use the spa bath but my friend did. the air conditioner didn’t work in one bedroom and the tv in the lounge didn’t work. there were tvs in each bedroom so we watch tv there.
- Reema (10/5): Exceeded expectations! - The location was perfect! The apartment exceeded our expectations and was so roomy and clean! Beautiful place, would highly recommend! The driveway had a slight pothole which might be hard for some lower vehicles.
