Guest Reviews
- Sally (10/5): -
- Savindri (10/5): Great location, beautiful space - Beautiful view and spacious apartment. No washing machine
- Amanda (10/5): A great little spot, handy to restaurants & walking tracks - Great location, beautiful views
- Jan (9/5): Relaxing comfortable and beautiful surroundings - Property was clean, comfortable, excellent amenities and had excellent views. No laundry facilities
- Rhonda (10/5): Beautiful view & presentation - Everything!
- Lisa (8/5): Great stay, very comfortable - enjoyed it. - Location, tidiness, view. No laundry facilities
- lindy (3/5): - The view. The messages on booking out, how you have to dispose of your own garbage, make sure the washing up is done and dishes put away, was not told this on booking. Paying alot of money!!
The water storage device was discusting and the water smelt old. You have to boil water, but only given a tiny jug to put I fridge!
The threat of extra cost if you use to much water. The unit has a mosquito problem as bug were coming in from somewhere.
The gardens were not inviting full of weeds. Won't be staying there again, over $300 complete rip off.
- Fiona (8/5): - The view was excellent. Especially as the sun set. There was no facilities for washing clothes. With no laundry facilities in the area, this should be a minimum requirement. With children, this is necessary.
- stephen (10/5): -
- Xiaoxuan (7/5): -
- Roger (10/5): -
- Maurice (10/5): Great location & apartment is very new - View from balcony Needs a washing machine / dryer
- Stuart (5/5): - Great view Septic tank smelt awful, right outside front door! Bed/mattress requires replacing. Tiny fridge. Could hear EVERYTHING as the "house" was split into two with No sound deadening!
- Sarah (10/5): - The property was excellent. Very clean, comfortable
and cosy. The view was also amazing. Location was great. I wish we could have stayed longer!
- Giulia (9/5): Superb -
- Katy (8/5): This is a great part of Tassie to visit. This place is perfectly adequate but other than the view, nothing special. - Lovely view. A bit sparse for the price.
- Sesenieli (10/5): Great Stay. Would recommend to anyone. - Location was great, it overlooked the sea and there was a path down to the beach which we used. The beach was beautiful. House itself was clean and organised. Check in process was easy. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we would definitely recommend to anyone that wants to visit the area. The house as well could cater to anyone that had a walker or a wheelchair.
- Colin (9/5): A really nice place to stay-have stayed before-will certainly stay again. - N/A N/A
- Heron (9/5): Superb -
- Pam (5/5): Passable - The view is lovely but check in process could be a lot better. On day of arrival we had no communication advising check in code. As running out of battery I phoned them at 2.30pm for 3pm check in to be told that access code would be sent about 10 mins before check in. When we did get in there was no wifi connection. Again phoned the help line staff who suggested restarting the modem but we had already searched for this unsuccessfully. They did not know where it was but thought it' might be in the other unit'. As the walls are not sound proof we could hear the cleaner next door, as well as the eventual guests... Cleaner was very helpful and after about 30 mins we located it and restarted successfully.
Starter pack very meagre for a 2 night stay at over NZD400 per night. 2 tiny pre- measured bags of filter coffee enough for one decent cup. An extra bath mat would be useful as shower has no door and the floor gets quite wet and no heated towel rail.
The rooms are large and facilities as described but as there is not huge choice in this area I guess this justifies the price
- Cpa (7/5): Modern apartment with awesome water views - Location is just a short drive to restaurants and other amenities
Awesome water views and sunsets
Airy feel in the well decorated modern apartment
Well equipped kitchen, dining and living areas
Large bathroom; good toiletries Availability of the instruction to get into the property was provided at the very last minute unlike one other place we went to where entry instructions were provided a couple of days beforehand.
A second set of towels would have been much appreciated as we stayed for 2 nights.
Absence of a washing machine - A place marketed as a self-contained apartment should have one like the other places we stayed in.
Having to throw away the rubbish - first time we had to do this in a rented accommodation.
- Black (7/5): Good -
- Wayne (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jenny (10/5): Great location with beautiful views. Great place to stay. - Great location with beautiful views. Very modern well maintained and provided all we needed.
A short drive to Coles bay. The code for the lock box only came through 45 mins prior to check in and we were out of mobile range. Did not get the code until we were able to access mobile when we arrived.
- Richard (8/5): Very good -
- Craig (8/5): Very good -
- Jan (8/5): Well located, spacious apartment close to National Park - Views of water wonderful, spacious apartment, well located to get to National Park & surrounds, exceptionally clean, easy to find. Living room; unfortunately I am not a fan of the leather couches, as you slide off them. Bathroom; a pool of water would form and sit in middle of bathroom after a shower. Plates & cutlery were a bit limited. Must wear shoes on metal deck as sun heats it up during day.
- Simon (9/5): Superb -
- Nicole (10/5): A beautiful place to stay with amazing views. The home was clean and the air conditioning was also great for those cold - Amazing views and air conditioning was a plus! Would have been nice if the kitchen was a bit more stocked with condiments and a dish washer.
- Patricia (10/5): The perfect stay! - A beautiful, clean and comfortable accomodation! It’s in a great location and has the most amazing views. The staff are incredible and checking in is a breeze. The location is seriously perfect. Highly recommend staying at Whale Watcher!
- Steve (10/5): Exceptional -
- Adrian (9/5): Superb - Spectacular view. Spacious modern apartment.
- Trotta (6/5): Good, but peace ruined by other tenants - Clean and nice views Horrific neighbours, constantly running around and a crying baby
- Kaz (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful view and balcony to enjoy it. Lovely, modern clean rooms A little out of the way, had to drive anywhere I wanted to go
- Nikki (9/5): Very comfortable with amazing views - The view and the big comfy bed Would have liked a dishwasher and bath
- Bruce (9/5): Great self contained stay on the bay. - Great location, super clean, comfy king bed, views and a very well provisioned kitchen. Only thing to fault was the glass doors to deck and views could have been cleaned prior to our stay.
- Georgia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gareth (9/5): Great property with a fabulous outlook! - maybe ceiling fan in bedroom, property was hot at night.
- Nanette (10/5): Oyster Bay View - Loved the view. Watching the sunsets on the deck with a wallaby in the garden, was amazing. Parking was excellent and close to a beach(for walking not swimming). No washing machine and dishwasher.
- Paul (8/5): Lovely Location shame about the management communication strategies - Lack of deplomacy in respect to what was expected when leaving the premisis
- Nuala (9/5): Most enjoyable - Stylish apartment with a fabulous view. Pleasant location and very comfy bed. For the amount paid I would have expected a few extra facilities such as washing machine and dish washer. The terrace needs an additional canopy/shade so you can sit out in comfort in the afternoons/early evenings.
- Mark (10/5): Exceptional - Wish we could have stayed longer. The views are amazing.
Very comfortable, well furnished apartment. A very minor detraction was the slat bed, squeaked every time you moved.
- Mary (7/5): Good -
- Danny (8/5): loved it but didn’t sleep very well - great location bed needs to be replaced far to hard
- Sophie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Weir (9/5): great accommodation for a relaxing getaway - great position, great water view nothing it was excellent
- Kylie (10/5): a very clean, comfortable place to stay in a perfect location - cleanliness and view. no washing machine.
- Anonymous (10/5): Fond Memory. - A holiday within a holiday. n/a
- Damien (4/5): disappointing - the view was amazing well I do blame booking.com as nowhere on its page does it say joint house with paper thin walls
as we were whispering so was the poor couple next door as we both could here each other breath let alone everything else
not private at all much like a backpackers, not ideal for you if you was looking for privacy
also only 2 towels for 2 people for 3 days I like to shower with clean towels
- Paul (9/5): comfortable, enjoyable, good location - great space and lovely outlook all good
- Shirley (10/5): Exceptional -
- Michelle (9/5): Superb -
- Bridget (7/5): Good -
- Rachel (8/5): a lovely relaxing stay - location spectacular view and quiet. beautiful house. needs a dishwasher and a bath.
laundry facilities would’ve been really useful.
wall between WW1 and 2 is very thin.
- Tracey (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kelly (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic location and incredible views! Modern, clean and updated. Well stocked kitchen and large bathroom. The perfect base to come home to after a long day exploring this gorgeous area. Bonus - it is so warm!! Wish my house was this warm!
- Sarah (10/5): Stunning view and relaxation all in one - very comfortable, stunning view, super clean and great amenities
- Lesley (10/5): A very comfortable and relaxing place to return to after a day of exploring and adventuring. - The property was tastefully furnished. immaculately clean and full filled all our requirements. it was extremely comfortable and cosy. I would highly recommend Whale Watcher 2 to anyone travelling through this area. The addition of a washing machine would have made this property 100% perfect for people travelling for a few weeks around Tasmania.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Our stay at Whale watcher was very disappointing.
Although the view is amazing the property is expensive and lacking essentials.
We had no coffee or milk. We were missing utensils and there was glass on the bathroom floor.
When we tried to contact the property manager through multiple channels there was no return phone call or reply.
The signage around the accommodation threatening cleaning fees is also very off putting.
We contacted the property manager after our stay and they blamed COVID cleaning requirements.
We have stayed at six other accommodations of which offered essentials.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Perfect view of oyster bay.
Didn’t feel like a stand alone apartment. Could hear people staying in unit next door.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The property is in a great location and with amazing views.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location. Kept informed regarding how to get in, so the stay was stress free.
