About the host
Hosted by Branko Mladichek
I am married to Ivanka with four children and ten grandchildren . For decades I have worked hard as a commercial builder never taking much time off, raising a family. About 10 years ago Ivanka told me to quit the chase, your kids are all married off, take the foot off the pedal, slow down and enjoy your life. I found the cottage on the internet & came to check it out. We came in the middle of winter at worst possible time, with howling wind and crashing waves it was like in a Lion's den but safe. The next day I caught three fish in front of the house for my dinner. Then I knew I was forever hooked. The next day we made an offer and after a period of negotiation the purchase was completed.
The sea change retirement plan worked, firstly once monthly and now twice monthly we come to enjoy the Cottage and for customer service and property maintenance. My children and grandchildren also love to come as do our family friends.
Every time I come I am blown away, just like the first time. Our returning guests feel the same.

Why they chose this property
Its much more than a stay, it's an experience. Our guests say that words are not enough to describe how beautiful this property is.I will try to point out the combination of incredible features that make it so unique and special. If this were Lotto then Frogmouth Cottage would be the winning ticket for nowhere else will you have so many features in one property. You would have to steal best features of dozens of properties and put them together and even then you would not replicate Frogmouth Cottage.
Tasmania, the most beautiful island in the world+ pristine family safe beach+the only house right on the beach+sheltered location+views to die for+Dolphins+ privacy of a large block+30 min to airport + 45 to a capital city. A paradise but not too far from everything else and all the conveniences of dining and shopping just 20 min away.
The location is incredibly rare, so close to the sea (at king tide waves lap front gate) and so low that building like this again is forbidden would absolutely not be allowed again. To get all the features of this property you would have to steal best features of about a dozen waterfront properties and put them together.
Frogmouth Cottage is not just a beach holiday rental, it's my private home that we use in between guest bookings. It is wonderfully well equipped with everything you can think of and furnished with quality furniture. It's to make you feel at home, away from home and an honoured guest. Consider it a privilege to stay.

What makes this property unique
Aside from astonishing fantastic uninterrupted ocean view this is like camping on the pristine beach but with all the convenience of a fully appointed home away from home.
It is also a slice of history making you feel you are in a beach shack back in time back in the the sixties.
A uniquely Australian beach shack right on the beach, dating back to sixties(and feeling that way, at time when the world was not complicated) in a beautiful sheltered bush setting with the privacy of a large block and a buffer of crown land reserve on 2 sides for privacy.
