About this property

Stewarts Bay Beach House, Port Arthur. Tasmania 1.0 km from Historic Site.

With absolute beach frontage onto beautiful Stewarts Bay, this modern two storey, three bedroom beach house offers luxury accommodation that will suit couples looking for a romantic getaway through to small groups and families.

We are Pet Friendly.

Enjoy luxury accommodation which features extensive interior and underfloor heating, front and back decks to capture the sun throughout the day, push button blinds, double spa bath with a view, twin showers, undercover outdoor BBQ, wifi, satellite tv, surround sound speakers, canoes & fishing gear for use, the list goes on.

There are few places in the world as picturesque as Stewarts Bay with its pure white sand, crystal clear waters and large old growth forest right down to the beach. It is the perfect place to stroll on the sand, go for a dip, paddle, fish or just sit back and soak up the views.

There is plenty to do within a short walk or drive of the beach house. As well as all the Port Arthur Historic Site has to offer, there are dozens of amazing bush walks (including the now world famous Three Capes Walk), as well as exciting eco-adventure cruises which give you a front row seat to some of the most spectacular scenery in the country. You can even hit a golf ball across sea cliffs perhaps with a seal or whale spectating from far below. The Tasmanian Devil Unzoo, Port Arthur Lavender Farm, McHenrys Whiskey Distillery, Tasman Arch, the Blowhole, Remarkable Caves, and several historically important convict sites are all notable local attractions. Sea fishing can also be arranged.

We love sharing this slice of paradise with our guests, and welcome many back year after year.

Peaceful area with magnificent views
Amazing property with everything at our fingertips including the beach view that you can never tire of! Appreciated the access to the kayaks, paddles and life jackets, enjoyed a couple of kayak trips! Instructions and information in the house was spot on and even the extra local tourist info provided by Peter a few days prior was much appreciated. A couple of kitchen items like kettle and the toaster needed a thorough clean which was immediately rectified by a party member, a few noticeable cobwebs about and as there were 3 of us staying downstairs we found the bathroom extremely tiny, even for 1 person so we all used the upstairs one. Overall a wonderful relaxing stay, great hosts, would definitely return again! Thank you!

A magnificent spot that has everything that you need
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Stewart’s Bay Beach House - wish we could have stayed for longer! The house was clean, peaceful and very well appointed. We loved taking the kayak out before we left - beautiful way to explore the bay. Great location to explore Port Arthur and some of the amazing walks nearby. Would definitely stay again.

Wonderful view and convenient for Port Arthur historic site
The location of the property was ideal for us. We walked into Port Arthur historic site and after a day there, relaxed looking at the fabulous view and then enjoyed seeing local wildlife arrive in the garden. The property had everything you could want and the details and instructions given were easy to follow and helpful. We would return here in a heartbeat. Thank you to the owners who provided everything.
