Family-friendly holiday rentals in Bruny Island

Absolutely stunning place and location! Nel and Lorne were amazing hosts and nothing was too much trouble. They had thought of all the little things to make us feel welcome and it truly felt like we were staying with friends…like a home away from home. We arrived to the smell of fresh bread baking, and found a loaf baking in the bread oven. Nel had even left us a jar of her homemade raspberry jam, which was to die for! We fell asleep every night to the sound of the waves which was absolutely magical and so peaceful. Our only regret is that we couldn’t stay longer! Would 100% recommend and would love to come back sometime!

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 (:

A wonderful stay, the spa on the deck was particularly fun for our kids, and we loved the wood fire. Warm and cosy stay with beautiful views of the bay.

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.

Lovely and clean, quite, private accommodation. It was great that our fur baby was allowed inside. Fresh lemons on the bench, which were nice in my tea and Ros was very easy to communicate with. We loved our stay and would recommend it to anyone.

We loved staying at the Milkman’s- everything you need to see or do close to Hobart is all within walking distance. Parking in Hobart is not easy but at the time of our stay we could easily park further up the Barrack St hill all day. We appreciate Kat accomodating our needs and also for offering a beautiful old world home that has a mix of old and new both architecturally blended. We would absolutely stay again.

Mieke’s place was warm and beautiful! The view from the deck area was stunning and all the nature, you definitely didn’t feel like you were 5min away from the CBD. It was fantastic for doggies and felt very safe and secure. Would 1000% recommend this cozy place!

Such a wonderful stay, peaceful beautiful surroundings for all of us including our Labrador Gypsy. Amazing hosts cannot recommend more highly! We will be back again thank you so much Jon and Christine amazing week long stay ☺️☺️☺️

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

Can highly recommend! Honni is a fantastic host and the beach house really has everything you need. The view (both directions) is just incredible. It was clean, tidy and well presented. The weather was cold and raining at times but the fire was lovely and cosy. An amazing place to stay!

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

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.

Great location for family or friends to get together. Literally walk out the door onto a beautiful beach. Plenty of outdoor amenities available incl swimming pool, tennis, basketball hoop, billiards, kayaks etc. Quiet and peaceful area, but close to airport and to Hobart so very convenient. Great communication from Julie in advance who also met us on arrival and showed us in. Thank you for a great stay.

will definitely book again such amazing hosts and very accommodating assist us with thermometer as one of us started tk feel unwell , not only that very respectful kind people with a butiful air bnb will be recommending to other people who are going to Hobart made our weekend truly memorable the provided pantry and fridge items were more then I expected truly blown my expiation of accommodation

We stayed for 3 nights and it was great. The location next to the river was beautiful. The cottage contained everything we could wish for and was very comfortable.

Jodi and Lindsay were fantastic hosts. Their lovely unit was in a great location and even had a wonderful café on the corner for our morning coffee. We were lucky to stay during the Dark Mofo Festival and Jodi offered great suggestions on different exhibitions to see and events to attend. Thank you Jodi and Lindsay!

Jodi's apartment is at the best location, vrry close to a great cafe, grocery stores, bus stop and moonah shops. Best thing is private car parking which is hard to find with other air bnb places. You can view beautiful mount Wellington from the bedrooms, and living room gets cozy by sunshine during the day. Jodi was kind enough to give us quick tour of the house on checking-in, and also let us stay an extra hour before checking out. Thank you Jodi for letting us stay at your lovely place.

Very spacious property with plenty of towels, bedding, kitchen & laundry amenities and comfort during our stay. The view is spectacular and we were very happy with the heating for our winter stay. Very close to the ferry terminal and lovely pub, cafes and supermarkets close by.
