We stayed here for three nights towards the end of our tour around Tasmania. Our chalet was spacious with well enough equipped kitchen, a laundry and lots of room to spread ourselves. The view from our balcony was directly towards the sea and the wonderful orange coloured rocks compete with blowhole. Our hosts were helpful in providing us with information... More

Single night stay in 1 BR Chalet style S/c cabin. Great location central to the township. Our cabin had a nice view of the coastline. The cabin has had some refurbishment with what appeared to be new carpet, TV and door handles. Kitchen was serviceable and the unit was clean and comfortable. Although some refurbishment has been done the units... More

We stayed in a 1 bedroom villa with lovely ocean views. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, in a great location and you could walk all over town from there. The rooms were definitely dated but it didn't detract from the stay. Good to have a washing machine in the room

Good value for money but the units could do with a bit of love and care....also if you get a 3 bedroom unit with a room underneath the main living area you can hear ALL movement upstairs...the general feel of the place was nice and in touch with nature

Great place, location, friendly service. We had one of the cabins facing the little lake at the front. Very clean and tidy. ANd they had internet for a reasonable price. After trying at 5 cafes and hotels before getting to Bicheno we felt we had finally arrived back in civilisation. Highly recommended.

We had our first "mini holiday" this weekend and did our trial here for one night. We have two two year olds so we needed somewhere that family friendly. We had a two bedroom room and it served our purposes very well. Basic kitchen equipment and utensils, shower over bath, our own balcony and tv with dvd player. Kids liked... More

Just spent 6 magic nights at Bicheno by the Bay with my two teenage boys and two extras in a 3 bedroom bungalow. The most incredible view from our deck you could ever imagine. Everything we needed, and if it wasn't in the Bungalow it was no issue for our hosts to provide it. Mum and Dad came and stayed... More

The four motel rooms are a great find with a view over a little lake and verandah area. Modern and well fitted out with cutlery plates etc. Nicely decorated and quite spacious. The location is very central and we thoroughly enjoyed our two nights there.

Stayed here for three nights over NYE. We had a one bedroom A frame cabin, which was clean and had everything we needed. Kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans, and we shopped at the local IGA (which like all holiday towns was incredible overpriced). Very short walk to the Bicheno shops. The cabins are a bit dated, and... More
