“Comfortable stay close to premier historic site”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 January 2011

We found Port Arthur Villas to be convenient accommodation for maximum enjoyment of the Port Arthur historic site. Just a short stroll across the road! Self-contained is the way to go with children. We also enjoyed one meal at Felons restaurant within the historic site. Although the units are co-joined and busy while we were there, we felt private in our unit & enjoyed an uninterupted sleep. The rural atmosphere and personalised hospitality made our stay relaxed. Terrific that the Manager takes bookings for the historic site and boat cruises. Ideal acommodation for exploring Port Arthur.

“Great location! Veryspacious”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 January 2011

Pleasantly surprised upon arrival. Separate units similiar to a condo with an open floor plan containing bed, kitchenette, and sitting area. Location was perfect with easy access to Port Arthur historical site.

“beautiful”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 December 2010

Beautiful place, but too expensive. The location is very good, but 170 $ for one night for 2 adults and an infant without breakfast is too much. The villa was perfect: spacious, clean, warm and comfortable. The bed was awesome, the bathroom was too cold, I don't understand why the window couldn't close completely!!! The staff was was great and helpful.

“Great Location, Great Accommodation”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 October 2010

person found this review helpful

After reading the reviews we decided that this was the place to stay and we were not disappointed. Wally Lyne was more than welcoming and the room was clean, comfortable and welcoming. We were here for only 1 night but I would certainly consider staying here again. We were able to book not only our accommodation but also our pass, Ghost Tour & dinner at Port Arthur through Wally and was not even charged extra for the additional service. It's only a short walk across the road to Port Arthur Historic Site. Well worth considering and highly recommend.

“Beautiful villas”

We booked this hotel for visiting Port Arthur. The Hotel is within 10 minutes walk to Port Arthur's reception, it is surrounded by a beautiful garden and with full equipped kitchen. The owner, Wally is a kind man and helpful. The next morning we even witness a wombat right near our door!
The only thing makes us uncomfortable is the Notice on the fridge mentioned the different penalty for late-check, or dirty kitchen.
However, still a wonderful place to stay!
