Family-friendly vacation rentals in South Bruny

Lovely place to stay. Beautiful views. Had a great time.

Nel's place was an excellent home for us for four days while we explored Dark Mofo in Hobart. It wasn't right in the centre of town, being maybe 10-12 minutes easy drive, but the trade off of a peaceful street with amazing water views and the sounds of the ocean at night was well worth it. A lovely little comfy space with all we needed, including easy parking right out the front. Thanks Nel!

I want to say it was awful so that it’ll be free next time I want to book it. But that’s not fair, everyone should get the opportunity to stay here. Quiet location away from the main roads, gorgeous views from the hot tub on the balcony. Simple, cosy accomodation that was exactly what I was after. Sean was super communicative prior to the stay and everything was so well explained I didn’t need him again except to let him know that regretfully, my stay was over. 10/10, thanks Sean for making such a special place available.

Brian was very accommodating and friendly. Our group had a very lovely stay and would absolutely love to stay again (:

We had a wonderful stay in Russell and Ingrid’s cute little cottage with all the creature comforts and a great location. We hope to visit again. They were so kind, allowing us early access - thank you!

Tom and Cate’s place was amazing! One of the best places we have stayed! They had lots of thoughtful touches especially for the kids. They went above and beyond our expectations. Communication was great, the house was amazing and the beds were super comfortable. The kids loved their little surprises and we loved staying there. Thank you so much for having us and we can’t wait to return! Highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in Hobart.

We absolutely adored our stay at this charming garden cottage in Glebe. It’s the perfect blend of cozy and quaint, with beautiful touches that made us feel instantly at home. Nestled in a quiet, leafy spot yet close to all the best Hobart has to offer, it was a peaceful and warm retreat after days of exploring. Our host was incredibly welcoming—sharing fascinating local history and giving us great recommendations for places to eat, shop, and explore. We especially loved hearing about the cottage’s past and how lovingly it’s been maintained. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a unique and heartfelt Tasmanian experience. Thank you!

Miro & Edinas home is beautiful. Edina greeted us and showed us important features of this smart house & shared information on nearby must sees. The pantry and fridge were a plenty & they’d even bought us a loaf of bread and fresh fruit, which we really appreciated. Even though you share an internal stairwell, it was still very private. Very cosy for the winter with fireplace and heaters and extra blankets for us northerners. The main bedroom has a beautiful view of the mountain; so picturesque especially on a full moon. Thank you once again Edina & Miro, it was truly a delight to stay with you.

Loved our stay at Ros’ place. Very cosy, all the basics provided! Ros went above and beyond leaving a small toy at the property for our pooch. Very dog friendly!

The guesthouse was in a great location, close to the CBD and Hobart attractions. The mountains provided for nice views and the guesthouse was tidy and cozy. The parking spot was a bit tricky to exit due to surrounding cars, but that was only a minor issue.

We enjoyed the house and area for an extended family trip. Lots of room and activities at the house. Kids loved the painting spot, and the short walk to fish off the jetty. Some nice foreshore walks, with a well formed track to Verona Sands. Thanks

We loved our stay, such a gorgeous location and short walk to the beach. Lovely and clean, a very spacious house for our tended family. The kitchen had all the essentials and appliances. We loved the coffee machine and fresh coffee beans. Great large walk-in showers and super comfy beds. We loved the outdoor fire pit, perfect for roasting marshmallows. We all had a lovely and relaxing weekend away and everything was exactly as Lucy described.

Had a beautiful weekend at the cottage! Loved the wood fire, views, walking on the beach. Very clean place with lovely comfy king bed and beautiful quality linen!

Lois' little cottage was fantastic. Loved the interior, very comfortable and cosy. Short distance to supermarkets and eateries and an easy walk to CBD.

Natalie's place is excellent. It's warm, comfortable and has a wonderful view of the bay. It's in a gorgeous area, and only a short drive to Salamanca. Close to everything you need. We highly recommend staying here and will be back. Thanks for a great stay, Natalie!

Beautiful, peaceful place . Close proximity to cafes, restaurants, Shops , Salamanca markets, Battery point . Great host . Wonderful historic place . Set back in time with all modern amenities in the house . Does not get much better!!! Thanks Nicole.

Gaye was incredibly kind and thoughtful—one of the best hosts I've ever had. I would highly recommend this place to any couple looking for a getaway. It's charming and attached to the house, overlooking a beautiful garden. The location was easy to find and access; however, it may not be ideal for larger cars to navigate the driveway easily. It's super close to restaurants and cute cafes for date nights, with beautiful beach walks and stunning waterfront views nearby.

We spent our first child-free weekend in almost two years at Marina and Uwe’s home, and it felt like a grown-up paradise. With no tv, a spectacular view to wake up to, a snuggly bed that was the adult equivalent of a bunk, and surrounded by the warmth of timber we had a relaxed weekend that focused on disconnecting from the frenetic pace of Sydney life. The location was excellent for those with a car and not wanting to stay in the CBD. We hope to be able to visit again.

This was a perfect stay for the four of us. It was a private location but close enough by car to go into Hobart. The breakfast amenities were very nice and the board games were fun too! Overall, it was a lovely stay.

Staying with Judy is always a pleasure. not only is the accommodation perfect and walking distance to a bunch of amazing places to eat Judy as a person is just wonderful. Sadly on this trip we kept missing each other but last time I stayed we got to share a wine and have a chat about our lives. I will continue coming back to stay with Judy when I visit Hobart as there isn't a better place or host!!

Georgia’s home was cosy and beautiful to stay in for a long weekend. There were plenty of spaces to enjoy, from the outside patio area to the big open-plan kitchen and the wonderful sunroom. The crafted windows and skylights make the house feel open and bright and we were nice and warm during our stay. The centre of the city is in walkable distance plus there’s a local corner store close by. Would highly recommend!

Peter’s place was a beautiful oasis that allowed us to explore Hobart and surrounds easily. Parking was convenient. It was clean and comfortable and warm in winter. The view from the outdoor seating of the city is stunning. We were able to cook meals by using the bbq and appreciated the breakfast staples and wine Peter left for us. Peter was very responsive and helpful with anything we needed. Would definitely return.

Great getaway. Lots of interesting wildlife to spot including quolls and pademelons. Would stay again.

I had a really lovely time staying at Annie’s place! It was cosy and warm, and the walk down to town was easy 😊 can highly recommend the knocklofty walk which is super close to Annie’s place.
