Beachfront vacation rentals in West Hobart

An incredible space ... the gentle lap of the water and soft breeze in the trees soothed our souls. The home was welcoming and comfortable and we enjoyed every minute including some very restful sleep. It was well-appointed and we wanted for nothing. Thank for sharing this beautiful place with us.

Cute older cottage in my favourite part of Hobart. Lovely views, garden and nicely decorated to suit the style of house. Had everything we needed for a comfortable stay as well as being warm and cosy.

Such a beautiful place. Very comfortable, warm and relaxing. The views were amazing, the sunrises next level. Facilities were great. Beds very comfy. Gardens were so pretty. Kitchen easy to use. Lounge room and woodfire so warm and cosy. A lovely place to spend Mother's day weekend. Thank you

We really enjoyed staying at Lillian’s, it’s such a nice place, lovely family and perfectly located

Louise's Opossum Bay house is the perfect cozy and quiet spot. I take my dogs on beach walks everyday. Everyone is friendly and Louise has been so accomodating and responsive. There's so much natural light and the house stays nice and warm during winter.

Fabulous! Just like holidays when I was a kid - so nostalgic! Loved the 50s colours & decor & the thoughtful touches like hot choc & marshmallows, which were most appreciated after a long drive. Plenty of cookware and crockery, a lovely hot shower, comfy lounges and beds. Great range of DVDs to suit all tastes. and so many beautiful places to visit around the peninsular. Best of all - that beautiful beach through the back gate!! Really appreciate that you allow pets & have fully fenced yard. My little dogs had a fantastic time frolicking on the beach as did I. We definitely want to come back!

The perfect little nest away. I booked here very last minute on my way to Tasmania for the first time because my friend who was hosting me got COVID. Deborah was really helpful with tips and making my stay super comfortable after I told her I was going to have to navigate with a hire car in the night and was a little nervous. Such a peaceful location in a gorgeous part of Tasmania, would book again !

A lovely peaceful place to relax and unwind. We really appreciated the delicious platter of fruit, bread and cheese on arrival. Plus the Easter eggs on Sunday morning was a delightful surprise.

The photos truly don’t do James’ place justice! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by how stunning the house and its surroundings were. Nestled in a peaceful spot with sweeping views of the water, this home quickly became our sanctuary. We spent most of our time soaking up the scenery from the balcony or wandering down to the waterfront - it was pure bliss. The layout of the house is incredibly thoughtful, offering both comfort and style in every corner. Every detail, from the decor to the natural light pouring through the windows, made the space feel warm and welcoming. It was the perfect blend of relaxation and luxury. We were genuinely sad to leave, but one thing’s for sure - we’ll definitely be back. Staying here made our visit to Tasmania even more special. Thank you, James, for sharing such a beautiful home with us!

A peaceful stay in a well appointed house with all the mod cons. Lovely outlook over the River Derwent. Was able to relax in front of the fire and watch the world go by. Jack was a great host.

What an amazing place to stay! Photos didn’t do the space justice- absolutely beautiful. Extremely clean and tidy, presented beautifully. Had everything you need for a weekend or even longer. Loved the fact there was a washing machine. Easy walking distance to Hope Beach with some great spots for photography including astrophotography and the allusive Aurora Australis. Easy drive to Hobart and other local attractions while enjoying a more secluded location. Supermarket and other amenities also within easy driving distance. Marco was very responsive with messages, very helpful with any issues and an overall great host. Will definitely return when able. Highly recommend

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A peaceful gem between city and nature Tinderbox Cottage was the perfect winter escape. Tucked away in a serene, leafy setting, it felt like our own private hideaway—yet it was ideally located for exploring both Hobart and the breathtaking wilderness of Bruny Island. The cottage itself was beautifully appointed and cozy, with a fireplace that made every evening feel like a warm hug after a day of exploring. We loved waking up to birdsong and water views, and it was just a short drive to local wineries, walking trails, and the Kettering ferry. If you’re looking for a place that balances comfort, nature, and convenience, this is it. We’ll definitely be back.

Connie and Johnnie's property is super spacious and perfect for my family of 6 adults. We knew this house is not near Hobart city, but that's one of the reasons we made it our base - to enjoy the peace and quiet. The view towards the water was dreamy. As hosts, Connie and Johnnie were very responsive and helpful. Thanks for being wonderful hosts.

Awesome location in a beautiful neighbourhood and you can see mount wellington out the kitchen window. We enjoyed the spacious rooms and comfortable furnishings. The space heaters in the bedrooms were great and worked well, but the dining room got pretty cold in the winter though. Would love to come back to experience this house in the summer.

The most beautiful airbnb with the most beautiful view of the water. Could not recommend Lisa’s place more !

Jen’s place is pristine, modern, and well decorated. What you would expect out of a home living magazine. Every corner is a piece of art for an interior designer. The place is also dark enough to enjoy the Milky Way and aurora when you’re there at the right time. We highly enjoyed the continental breakfast and snacks during our stay. Highly recommended!

What an incredible oasis! 10 best friends enjoyed a magical birthday weekend at Saltcotes. Incredible location and views, extremely well stocked house and a home that felt like home. Morning swim followed by lunch with a view - it won’t disappoint. Cannot wait to return in the future.

Absolutely blown away by our stay, everything was perfection. Our host Nancy’s communication was great, and the detailed, helpful information provided before and during our stay made everything so seamless. The main house tour was such a delight, setting the tone for the incredible experience. As for the location, it's truly heaven on earth. I honestly believe I will never stay anywhere prettier! The house itself is styled to absolute perfection, with insane attention to detail in every corner. But without a doubt, it was that breathtaking main view and the stunning, color-coded bookcase that truly stole the show and captured my heart. Thank you for creating such an unforgettable and beautiful escape! We can't wait to return some day!

This listing is beautifully situated right in front of the river—it's peaceful listening to the waves crashing onto the shore. Yet, it's conveniently located just 15 minutes from downtown Hobart. We especially loved the playground right next to the property, which our kids thoroughly enjoyed. The house is clean and equipped with all the necessary amenities. While items like a highchair need to be requested in advance, the team was very responsive and met our needs promptly. We’ll definitely be back next time!

We were blown away by this gorgeous property! The house was absolutely idealic for our group with stunning views, spacious rooms and fire wood ready to go on these colder months. But the real compliments go to the hosts, who were so accomodating, responsive and proactive! We never felt like a bother and they were so happy to make our stay as comfrotable as possible! We absolutely fell in love with Roches Beach and will be back for sure!

We were traveling as a family group of ten and this house accommodated us so well. The location is so beautiful and we loved exploring the local region and then coming home to wander the beach each evening. It was so peaceful and relaxing. The host was friendly, responsive and helpful

Absolutely loved staying here for the second time! Large living and dining space for our big family to enjoy. So close to the amazing beach, just awesome. Thankyou again

We LOVED this beautiful house. Right on the beach, with seals and dolphins playing out front. The kids loved jumping off the jetty. The house had everything you could possibly want, right down to martini glasses. The rooms were beautiful, the house warm and cosy, and the beds comfortable with gorgeous linen. We will stay again. Thank you for sharing this wonderful home.

A fantastic location right on the beach. The interiors are tastefully decorated with a well-designed layout, plenty of areas to chill out, and ample storage space for a longer term stay. We also enjoyed the selection of books and magazines. There’s a fabulous jacuzzi bathtub in the master bathroom, and it was so relaxing to go for walks on the beach and fall asleep to the rhythmic sound of waves. It’s well worth stopping at a larger supermarket before you get there to stock up with any food or other supplies you might need, so you can maximise your peaceful and relaxing stay.
