Recently stayed at one of the two bedroom cabins right at the back, on the veranda was a great veiw over Cole Bay, it had plenty of room and was very clean. As per previous reviews you could see into the cabins next to you, but you only had to close the blinds. As we stayed in Autumn we did... More

We stayed here for 2 nights recently. We arrived in the dark so we drove around for 20 minutes trying to find it. We chose a powered site and there was plenty of space. The bathrooms were not far away. The floors were normally covered in hairs, even after the cleaning, and there was a funny smell. We went to... More

We stayed 2 nights at Iluka in a cabin, paying $110 p/n. Accommodation choices are rather limited in Coles Bay - we didn't want to spend $$$ at the resorts or stay in a rental house - we normally prefer motels or mid priced hotels on our travels. Balcony had views of the bay which was lovely. Having never stayed... More

The YHA hostel is located on the campground of the BIG4 Iluka. It is quite a small hostel with a few (small) rooms and shared bathrooms. The kitchen size was sufficient for the number of people that stayed there when we were there. We've had, however, the impression that for a long time this hostel hadn't been looked after very...

Booked this site on the website, which was very handy, although it does state absolute beachfront it isn't really, as you have to pass through the fuel station/general store/cafe bakery/hotel car park and the road to get to the water. Nevertheless it is a beautiful location and the arrangement of the sites means that you do get a fair view,... More

The Iluka Holiday Centre is vertically-integrated with the neighboring foodstore, 'bakery' (no baking on premises), pub etc. If you plan staying for more than a couple of nights and using kitchens in the cabins or the shared BBQ area, definitely worth doing some grocery shopping before you get to Coles Bay. Coming from Hobart, Sorrel is your last real chance... More

We stayed here one night, and were pleased with the accommodation. The area is quite expensive for accommodation, so the basic cabins at Iluka were the cheapest we could find ($110/night). We were placed in one of the newer cabins, which looked like that had only recently been there. There is a little balcony on each cabin. Two rooms -... More

We stayed in a 2 bedroom cabin which actually had water views from the front balcony. The setting is peaceful. The cabin had 2 bedrooms a kitchen dIning space & a lounge area, there is also a Shower & seperate toilet. It's very basic but clean- if if you are only staying for a few days- very adequate. The staff... More
