Revealed: Tasmania’s Hidden Luxury Escapes
From cliffside lodges to private islands, Tasmania offers refined seclusion, dramatic landscapes and world-class indulgence.

For those seeking sanctuary, Tasmania is no longer just a stop on the gourmet trail; it has become the retreat of choice for travellers who value privacy, natural beauty and rarefied experiences.
Here, unspoilt wilderness collides with an extraordinary food and wine culture, creating a backdrop that is both invigorating and restorative.
The island state inspires visitors to “come down for air”, not just a slogan, but a reminder that this is a place to disconnect from the noise of the mainland.
Beyond the plate and the glass, Tasmania delivers experiences that draw people outdoors: iconic multi-day treks such as the Three Capes Track, encounters with award-winning winemakers in the Tamar Valley, or the solitude of Bruny Island’s windswept beaches.
Whether it’s cold-water immersion at sunrise, venturing into the rugged wilds of the West Coast, or dining on oysters pulled fresh from the ocean, Tasmania offers its guests something rare in modern luxury: the ability to feel both utterly indulged and completely at ease.
Here are some of the most luxurious accommodations on offer, regardless of which part of the state you want to explore.
PUMPHOUSE POINT
Floating serenely on Lake St Clair, the converted hydro station at Pumphouse Point feels like a work of architectural theatre.
Guests reach the retreat via a jetty that stretches into the still, polar waters, before stepping into suites where glass walls frame the wilderness.
Days unfold with bushwalks, e-bike rides or rowing across the lake, while evenings are about curated menus showcasing Tasmania’s finest produce. Cold-water swimming, here considered therapy rather than challenge, is one of the most restorative rituals on offer.
THE INLET
On the windswept north-west coast, The Inlet blends beachfront living with agrarian charm. Four contemporary houses are tucked into sand dunes overlooking a private stretch of coast, part of a working cattle farm just minutes from the historic port of Stanley.
Guests wake to the rhythm of the tide, wander along deserted sands, or watch birdlife gather in the inlet, all the while feeling miles from the outside world.
BARNBOUGLE
For those whose idea of leisure involves a perfect swing, Barnbougle is nothing short of a pilgrimage.
Once farmland for potatoes, the dunes of north-east Tasmania have been transformed into a trio of world-class golf courses sculpted from the natural contours of the land.
The Dunes, Lost Farm and Bougle Run now attract serious players from around the globe.
Private charters deliver guests directly from Melbourne, where evenings end in elegant villas overlooking the wild, rolling landscape.

Guests will also have the opportunity to meet Günther Steiner, the former Haas Formula One Team Principal and one of the sport’s most recognisable figures, following his starring role in Netflix’s global hit series Drive to Survive.

Founded in 2014, Bullrush Rally has grown into one of Australia’s most respected automotive communities, bringing together successful entrepreneurs, executives and enthusiasts through curated rallies, track days and high-end lifestyle events.
Beyond its luxury experiences, the organisation has raised more than $250,000 for charities supporting sick children, mental health initiatives and medical research across Australia.
Through the new partnership, Citizen Kanebridge Car Club members will gain priority access to Bullrush’s flagship events, including multi-day rallies, Formula 1 hospitality suites, exclusive track days and private member-only gatherings.
