About this property

Sunrise at Penguin - beach retreat

Sunrise at Penguin is aptly named as it witnesses the morning splendour directly opposite the beach - situated 200 metres from the town centre and 30 metres from the beach.

This 3 bedroom house ( 2 Queen beds & 2 Single beds ) is fully self contained and short and long stays are encouraged.

Coffee shops and eateries are close by as well as bottleshop requirements.

There are many walking tracks around town and several beaches - 1 hour from Cradle Mountain and geographically central on the NW Coast of Tasmania between Burnie and Devonport airports (30mins) - 25 minutes from Spirit of Tasmania terminal.

Mountain bike tracks in the nearby Dial Range extend for 70 kms with magnificent views from Mt Montgomery ( a 40 min hike). Hinterland attractions are the caves at Gunns Plains, the Leven Canyon, wineries, rural farm land, Cradle Mountain and specialty organic farms such as Mt Gnoman Pig Farm.

Beaches are patrolled by life savers during summer and many sporting activities occur all year round due to Penguin's central location.
Our standard rate is $140 per night for the first two people and $30 for extra people per night. ($20 if on weekly rate)
Children less than 6 are free.
Weekly rate is $140 x 7 less 15% = $833.
Monthly rate is $140 x 30 less 30% = $2,940

Perfect coastal home
This beautiful coastal home exceeded our expectations. Beautifully decorated and fully equipped with everything needed for a night, a week or a month's visit...we could've stayed forever. We loved sitting on the front porch looking at the spectacular view Bass Strait We took a short and scenic walk into the town where we ate at Penguin Beer. The next day we had coffee and lunch in town and explored the shops. Our host Terry was so kind and helpful. Our only regret is that we didn't plan to stay longer here. One of the nicest places we've stayed through VRBO throughout the world. Deb & Bob Cailor Marblehead, Ohio USA

Top notch
The only bad thing about this stay was that I'd only booked one night! Everything about this accommodation was top notch, the decor, the quantity linen, the extra touches, the fantastic view, the comfy bed & super friendly host. I will definitely have this one in my fav list & hope i get another chance to stay here again. It's a great location if your catching the boat at Deavonport. 👌🏡

Gorgeous house in a beautiful location, with outstanding hosts
I cannot speak too highly of Sunrise at Penguin. Right from day 1 when I booked the property, Terry was so helpful and sent great information about the locality. He maintained good communication in the weeks ahead of our arrival, and was available if we needed him to attend to anything once we were in the house. Not that he needed to do much - when we arrived, the house was prepared with everything we needed, and far more than we expected. There is no scrimping on quality at Sunrise at Penguin: the furniture was very comfortable; the kitchen well-stocked; and the cooking equipment of excellent standard. The laundry, too, was well-equipped. The decor was just delightful, with quirky penguins fashioned creatively from various materials placed around the house, which added to the beautiful seaside atmosphere, along with the tasteful paintings. There were even fresh flowers in the lounge, and fruit left for us in the kitchen. The view was just incredible, and the beach is literally over the road. We did not want to leave: Sunrise at Penguin is definitely a place we will return to when we can get back to Tasmania.
