Property is right on the beach, host was delightful and the homemade bread at breakfast was to die for.

- Exceptional location
Great place”
Great place directly on the beach. Room very large. Bed was very comfortable. Clean. People friendly. Good breakfast. Everything was excellent ! We would have stayed longer if we could.
Extremely well appointed at White Beach. Very comfortable room with all amenities .”
Great location for a walk on the beach at sunset. Jan and Jonathan were fabulous hosts who cooked a great breakfast.
Perfect stay”
Perfect stay when visiting the Port Arthur region. Accommodation is clean and has direct access to beach. Great hosts.
Pleasant b & b on lovely beach”
Stopped here while visiting port Arthur. Nice breakfast and easy parking. No view from room but 20 metres from beach,
Thank you for your review. Our 2 Beachfront Rooms have the best views but the Standard Room you booked has the same in-room facilities as these rooms, just no view as you said. We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us.
Nice host and good location”
It is close to sea with good view. the host is very nice. It is also good to have breakfast with the other guests and nice chats with them. It is good if we could stay longer instead of only one night :)
Comfortable and nice hospitality. Friendly staff”
Enjoyable stay, very comfortable , peace and silent. Bot a bit too far away from urban area. The location is quite remote.
Exceptional”
Beautiful location and superb amenities combined with friendly, knowledgeable staff for an excellent experience.
Location, comfort and cleanliness”
We were late to arrive after the normal check-in time, though weren't aware there was a definitive check-in closing time. It's recommended you call ahead if this is the case as it will afford you a more pleasant welcoming. Once inside the accommodation is clean and very comfortable, a stay here is certainly recommended.
Perfectly comfortable in every way”
Just perfect We would definitely recommend this to anyone.
Perfect location on the beach”
Great hospitality and fab breakfast
Nice location”
Four of us stayed in a 2 bed cottage, nice and confortable. As this area of TAS is really expensive this was a good compromise. Would stay again.
Millipedes welcomed us”
We checked in around 11 pm in the night and found the place quite presentable. To our surprise ,we saw few millipedes around the room. We discarded them but more and more coming around everywhere. In total we would have flushed around 20. Couldnot sleep entire night . We sent a message in the night to the owner but never got a reply from them.
Unfortunately we were asleep at midnight when you messaged us and you said in that message you had got rid of 10 small millipedes (they are about 5mm each!) In the morning you rushed off after breakfast and didn't say it was a huge problem. Your message did not indicate it was a huge problem either. In fact you said that everything seemed fine in the room apart from that. When I saw your review on google, I messaged you immediately and apologised. We checked the room after seeing your message and none were to be found and none seen since. I can only think it was because I left the lights on and curtains open for your very late arrival and they were attracted tot he light. For that I apologise.
Good”
Excellent location. Advice given re restaurants was inaccurate. Very frustrating finding somewhere to eat.
Sorry that you were given wrong information about eating out. We try to emphasise that booking is advisable since not all restaurants are open every night and some get booked up ahead of time and change their opening hours at different times of year which makes it hard to keep up with all of them. We're always available and willing to call ahead for you too. Glad you enjoyed yes our location though.
great”
Lovely
Beautiful location, quiet rooms”
We had the most lovely meal (supplied for a little extra by the host) and a great breakfast here. A little piece of paradise on a white, white beach, lovely to walk along, and to swim in too! Hosts were not intrusive and well informed on local and Hobart activities.
Fabulous !!!”
Gorgeous location, terrific hosts who make your stay super comfortable. An excellent hot cooked breakfast if you order the night before. The walk right along the beach is right out the door! 10 Stars!
relaxing and helpful”
Harpers is such a relaxing place to be, even if the weather is rubbish! The service is fantastic and it's a great location for a getaway
Beach front B&B”
Property is right on the beach, host was delightful and the homemade bread at breakfast was to die for.
Thank you for your lovely review. So glad you enjoyed our breakfast bread!
Wonderful accomodation”
Our stay at Harpers on the Beach was absolutely wonderful. We stayed in the Ocean View room. The room was clean, spacious, nicely decorated, and what a lovely view to wake up to! There is private deck to enjoy some drinks and easy beach access for a stroll or swim. The hosts are very welcoming and Jill is a fabulous cook. She does not only serve a great breakfast, but can also provide dinner. It was pure bliss enjoying an amazing home cooked meal after our day hiking at Cape Hauy. We would definitely recommend staying here (and to have dinner!)
Thank you Emily for your lovely review. So glad you enjoyed your stay and dinner here. It is lovely to wake up to the view across the bay!

Stunning location, scrumptious food, spotlessly clean and wonderful, friendly hosts. Perfect. Wish we could have stayed longer.
Thank you Emma. So glad you enjoyed your stay and our food. You will just have to come back and stay again to experience more of the Tasman Peninsula!
