There had been a bit of a booking double-up, but the host had it all sorted out before we arrived there, and had arranged for us to stay in a near-by property, so no stress or issue for us at all. So whilst I cannot write a review for the original accommodation at tranquil point itself, the alternate he arranged for us was really nice, and definitely met our needs/expectations. The host at tranquil point was friendly and helpful, as were those at the alternate property. A great experience all around, and would stay again.

Shared bathroom is hard when used to your own, but overall not a huge deal.

Stunning location , very friendly hosts. A real opportunity to slow down and relax.

The location was spectacular, and Ben, our host, was really lovely and welcoming and couldn’t do enough for us. He even offered us his car!

Stayed in February 2024

Mattress was hard; noise from guests using the upstairs toilet during the night and early morning was very disturbing, dropping things on the bathroom floor and flushing. The shower in the ensuite did not have a place to sit soap, body wash or shampoo so that had to be put on shower cubicle floor. Noise problem hard to fix as depends on the upstairs guests, maybe a bathroom carpet might help or provide downstairs with ear plugs. The downstairs ensuite shower is cheaply and easily remedied, even just with shelves held by suction cups. Same with the mattress - just buy a topper either of memory foam or polyester. The lack of those comforts seemed particularly thoughtless to me given everything else had been so beautifully prepared.

Gorgeous location, fantastic kitchen, lovely drinking water, roomy and spacious common areas, great host willing to help, excellent yoga room and yoga class. The variety of Tasmanian timber used for the beds was a wonderful celebration of the place. We didn’t get to use the fire pit but that would have been memorable on a cold and windy night.

We had a great stay at Tranquil Point. Ben had some good recommendations for us to do nearby and it was also nice to enjoy the well appointed kitchen and lounge with nice views over the water.

At Tranquil Point we felt truly welcome. It's a wonderful place to relax while you take in the surrounding air and light. The homestead is delightfully furnished, and there's a very well curated collection of books to enjoy. That's if you can tear yourself away from simply walking on the property with its orchard and food garden, its tall native trees, the water lapping the shores, the birdlife, and the resident wallaby or two. The whole place seems to cast a spell of serenity over the visitor.

Bed was actually a bit low to floor but still comfortable.

Beautiful quiet spot. Loved arriving to warm fire on a wet cool afternoon. First time staying in a retreat/guest house.

The accommodation was lovely. I like the simplicity and set up of it. I could have my own space or engage with others if wanted. It was great to have access to so much storage space for food - cupboards and fridges. Access to some great books also. Absolutely stunning property where I was able to chill out admiring some lovely sunsets and the night sky. The place has a really peaceful and serene aspect to it. Darras welcoming was friendly and helpful. I was fortunate enough to be introduced to bikram yoga and had some great experiences. I enjoyed being able to access such a large property to pick a spot on and sit beneath some trees and enjoy the space. It was also really nice to be able to have a dip in the water. Thankyou - truly grounding place which added value to my time in Tasmania.

Very welcoming and a lovely situation

Stayed in March 2023

No mosquito screen in the Huon pine room where we stayed:( like my fresh air- especially on warm nights; so had to cop a few mozzie bites😫however most other areas in the house were screened, which was great. Absolutely no toiletries supplied so make sure you have your own. Fine with that, I always have my own -but I do think any share situation bathroom/Host should supply ‘Handwash’ or soap, very important after the whole Covid thing. Lucky we had some to keep in the bathroom during our stay, you can’t remember to take soap into the bathroom everytime you need to go!!!

As the name says - very Tranquil!! Beautiful property on the water with gorgeous views. Ben was a great host, nothing too much trouble, welcomed us on arrival showed us around, and made us feel right at home. We were even allowed to pick fresh Veggies for dinner from Bens wonderful garden. Fabulous!

An amazing property, a great place to unwind and relax. We swam off the beach on the property and enjoyed the company of the other guests.

Stayed in February 2023

as it’s an old house, there is basically NO noise protection and you hear really everything though all guests were very cautious to be quiet.

Ben the owner warmly welcomed us and made us feel home. amazing location which deserves its name. I highly recommend this stay for people who wanna come home to a really quiet and relaxing place.

Magnificent location and very helpful owner.

Absolutely lovely. Ben and Sassy couldn't have been more welcoming. Clean room in a sweet homestead by the water, with a good kitchen and a cosy fire in the lounge for those cool tassie nights. Look out for the fairy wrens flitting about in the morning on the lawn. Cygnet has good facilities and fuel and is just a few Ks away. Ben runs a bikram studio on site if that's of interest to you, and there's a fire pit by the water for the evening.

We loved the place!

Beautiful setting and fantastic accommodation. Tastefully and comfortably furnished. Large kitchen, extremely well equipped. Host was very welcoming and helpful.

Ben was a very friendly welcoming and accommodating host. The facilities were fantastic and the site just beautiful. Will definitely stay at tranquil point again when visiting the Huon valley. A short stay unfortunately for us this time but a very comfortable and enjoyable one.

Stayed in November 2022

It was beautiful and peaceful. A lovely roaring wood fire to keep you toasty and warm. Ben was so very accomodating going above and beyond to help me, due to some changes in my plans. Property was clean with all that you need.

stunning location, and once the fire had been lit and giving a little time, it warmed the whole place up beautifully.
