7.4 out of 10, Good, (3 reviews)
"Amazing, quite unique, hotel floating in the middle of a lake with snow capped mountains in the backdrop, picture perfect. BUT that's it. There's really nothing else to do here, as you rely on food SOLEly provided by the hotel and there's no other external sources for food being so remote and the portions are small so pack some snacks, instant noodles. Aims for some fine dining vibe, but the quality is sub-par, may be due to meals being included in the price. The food alone would convince you...

Frequently asked questions

How much does a beach hotel in Southwest cost?
Prices for beach hotels in Southwest vary, but you can find a great deal from £80 on Expedia. You're likely to find lower rates if you're travelling during the off-peak season or mid-week. Find the best deals by being flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.
Which area of Southwest is best to stay in for beaches?
For beach lovers in Southwest Tasmania, the best area to stay is along the coast near Ocean Beach and Macquarie Harbour.

This region offers direct access to Tasmania's longest beach, Ocean Beach, which stretches for over 40 kilometres. It's known for its wild, windswept beauty and the dramatic swells of the Southern Ocean. The area around Strahan, situated on Macquarie Harbour, provides a more sheltered base while still being very close to the coast. You'll find a few guesthouses and hotels here, often with views over the harbour.

Couples seeking a romantic getaway will appreciate the secluded feel and dramatic scenery. You can spend your days walking along the vast expanse of Ocean Beach, watching the waves, or exploring the calmer waters of Macquarie Harbour by boat. The quiet nature of the area allows for peaceful evenings and stunning sunsets over the water.

For families, staying near Strahan offers a good balance. While Ocean Beach is fantastic for walks and experiencing the raw power of the ocean, the calmer waters of Macquarie Harbour are better suited for water activities like kayaking or fishing with children.
What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Southwest?
The most popular time to stay in a beach hotel in Southwest Tasmania is during the summer months of December to February. This period offers the warmest weather, with average temperatures ranging from 17°C to 23°C, which is ideal for enjoying the region's stunning beaches and coastal activities.

During these months, the long daylight hours and pleasant conditions are great for swimming, sunbathing, and exploring the pristine coastline. It's a fantastic time for families to make the most of the outdoor environment, with opportunities for kayaking, paddleboarding, and enjoying beachside picnics. Many coastal towns will have a lively option, and beachside amenities are in full swing.

For those seeking a slightly different experience, March presents a wonderful alternative. The weather remains pleasantly warm, typically between 15°C and 20°C, and the ocean is still comfortable for swimming.
How can I save on a beach hotel in Southwest with Expedia?
One Key™ —Expedia's free travel rewards programme—gives you instant access to perks and Member Prices on Southwest beach hotels. Plus, you'll earn OneKeyCash™* on eligible bookings to use on future trips. Typically, booking in advance will help you save on your hotel booking. But, if you're feeling spontaneous, check out the last-minute deals.



*Excludes taxes and fees. OneKeyCash is not redeemable for cash and can only be used on Expedia and other participating brands.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a beach hotel in Southwest as a package?
Booking a beach hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking a beach vacation package well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my beach hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right beach hotel in Southwest for you.
