We visited Edge of the Bay for two nights as part of a drive yourself around Tasmania trip. This resort was well laid out with stunning views of the Hazards across Oyster Bay, local roamimg wildlife, and magical sunsets. The rooms were exceptional, and very comfortable. I would certainly return here on another trip.

This is a simply beautiful resort just outside the town of Coles Bay. It looks across Oyster Bay to Freycinet Peninsula and the sunsets across the water were stunning. The resort consists of studio units and small cottages nestled in amongst tea-trees and small shrubs, but you really don’t know anyone else is around. Dinner at the resort used local... More

We stayed 2 nights in one of the ocean view suites and were not disappointed by the views and layout of the suite. Room was clean and well appointed. It was good reading other reviews beforehand so that we knew about the water colour. It is a short drive into town and if we had more time we would have... More

I didn't stay at the restaurant but had dinner there - just couldn't find a listing on TripAdvisor. The restaurant is called The Edge. What can I say! the views are absolutley sublime. Get there before the sun goes down as the setting sun on the rocks and mountains is beautiful. Treat yourself to an aperitif and walk around outside... More

After staying 3 nights at Edge of the Bay Resort, I did not want to leave. We were only a third of the way into our Tazzy road trip but I thought we had hit the best of the trip already when we stopped here. We stayed in an ocean view suite, and were lucky enough to be situated right... More

'Edge of the Bay' is in a great location with stunning views....it was very close to Freycinet National Park and a lovely base to do a little more exploring of the east coast. We stayed in a self contained cottage, which we thoroughly enjoyed. the cottage wasn't serviced but we had everything we needed, it was well equipped, comfortable and... More

This is a great hotel in a fantastic location. The hotel faces Coles Bay and the scenery is simply breathtaking. There is a patio outside every room. I was having my morning coffee on the patio when two wallabies came up and started feeding on the grass. I don't think you can top that experience. The location is also great... More

Get a beachfront studio. Even though they are in a block - because of their clever design you'd never know anybody else was there - except the wallabies.

My wife and I went on a driving holiday round Tassy and returned to Edge of the Bay after 7 year absence. Nothing has changed which is good and bad! Location is stunning.. Do make sure you get a room at the front for the view. Rooms are minimalist but fine. Biggest bug bare was the mini bar fridge was... More
