We were given a Warm welcome, with a show around property and recommendations for dinner. Very good selection of breakfast supplies and went out of there way to make sure it suited our requirements. The property had everything you would need. Great location walking distance to shops and restaurants. Highly recommend.
We stayed at the Horizon Deluxe Apartments during the last few days of our honeymoon. It was our favourite accommodation in Tasmania. The apartment was modern and stylish and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The views of Stanley were amazing from every corner of the apartment and we especially loved sipping wine in the bath. We would definitely come back - thank you!
This is a lovely property in a delightful setting. Room 5 was exceptionally well appointed with everything you could want, including a Weber on the balcony, and a view to die for. Town and restaurants were an easy ten minute walk. Great accommodation!
Beautiful apartment, with an amazing view and plenty of room for a family! Location on the waterfront is perfect with a fenced in playground across the street that you can watch your kids play at from the comfort of your own deck!
We really enjoyed our stay. The cottages are very clean and comfortable with everything you need for a lovely stay. Great location, very close to the information centre and the national park. Highly recommend to everyone.
We were unexpectedly stuck in Tasmania when all the ferries were cancelled, so had a few extra days holiday. We therefore booked the Cottage very last minute to explore the north coast of Tasmania. Excellent location - we visited Stanley, did the Coast to Canyon tour, tulip farm and beaches which were all less than an hour's drive from the cottage. The owner gave us some local tips for our stay which were helpful and we really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The hosts' gardens were also a joy to explore.
