Port Arthur for those with Gammy knees!”

If you are very mobile, Port Arthur Villas are within walking distance of your accom - you even get a key to enter via a back gate and not have to worry about parking your car. If you need to drive, like we did, then be there at opening time so that you can get in the closest car park to the Visitors Centre. For the very infirm there is a Commandant's tour in the buggy, costs an extra $30 per head . This was not available on the day of our tour because of a cruise ship with 2000 bodies being on site. However we somehow lucked out and scored a buggy which was only meant to go from A to B but was driven by a frustrated tour guide and he let us stay on board for an hour while he drove us everywhere Amazing! Back to Port Arthur Villas - very helpful with their advice etc. Booked us into Gabriel's for first night's dinner which was excellent. However, they warned us that dinner at the Port Arthur Lodge would be rather lacking - and it was. Service was non-existent, food was very basic BUT the bread was excellent!!

Nice villas in beautiful garden setting”

We only stayed for one night but were happy with the accommodation. The country setting is beautiful and the villas were reasonably clean and comfortable. My only complaint is that the bedside tables were very, very dusty. I was glad to see a real hairdryer in the bathroom, not one of those small, white, wall mounted ones most places have. Walk to Port Arthur, beautiful garden, friendly owner. You must clean up or will be charged a cleaning fee. Not a big deal for us but when on holidays, most people don't want to be stuck cleaning dishes etc. We would come back again.

Good value for money. ”

We enjoyed our 2 night stay. It is located across the road from the back entrance to the Port Arthur Historical sight. All kitchen requirements are supplied to enable cooking. Would recommend this to other travellers.

Comfy stay at a good location”

We had a comfy stay there; the surrounding environment is beautiful and it's only 10 mins drive to the White Beach and Port Arthur. We enjoyed our time cooking at the kitchen with almost every equipment needed. It's a nice place for small group or family. The only bad thing is there is no wifi in the room.

Great stay in Port Arthur ”

Fabulous service by Deb the operations manager. Great value for money. There is even a separate entrance into the Port Arthur Historical Site just across the road.

New Year brought in with cheapest mini bar ever”

Great location on the Port Arthur circuit. Informative staff even helped by children light their sparklers. Great atmosphere also created by regular guests.

Great Location”

So close to the Port Arthur historic site - if you're travelling to the area for this reason it is a great choice. Comfortable accommodation.

Good place”

We stayed 1 night for sightseeing in Port Arthur Historical Site which is within 5 mins drive from the Villa. The place is good yet the bathroom needs to be cleaner. It seems to have been used for many years and the surface looks rusty. Also stains can be seen on the toilet lid. Also free wifi access is limited to 1-200 MB depending on the wifi pass given by the reception. Except those mentioned above it is quite a good place to stay in Port Arthur

Cant get any closer to port arthur”

Excellent place. Very clean an so close you can walk to port arthur in 5 mins so font have to drive. Perfect

good location comfortable room”

well located close to port arthur historic site--great area for seeing outstanding coastline

A clean but average motor in for the price of a 5*”

We only stayed for one night but paid a fair amount of money for a 3* star type accomodation. It is certainly not the touted 4* that it pretends to be. Wireless was only available if you stood still in a little corner of the room. Bathroom was very nice and renovated. The rest felt very late 70s, early 80s. The location is right next to Port Arthur jail and you will be woken up by the cows, but by traffic. Reception will call you at 10 to remind you you have to check out... Even there are only 3 rooms occupied like the night we were there. Basically it is an very clean and decent motor inn. If that is what you are looking for you will be ok.

Very friendly and helpful management who even dropped us and our luggage at the Historic Site. ”

Hadn’t realised that they also provide BBQ packs and breakfast packs at a very reasonable price as well as selling some very good local wines. An extremely pleasant stay and would definitely come back again. Thank you.

Fantastic room and location”

We enjoyed our one day stay in the clean and spacious room. The staff was also friendly and accommodating.

Exceptional”

1 night stay in port arthur”

we reach the accom after dinner and it was pitch dark enroute to the accom. host was thoughtful to left us a note for instructions to our accom. place was clean with facilities that suffice for 1 night stay however my friend and i had a "scary" night. the oven light lit up of no where and "clicking" sound started to come on without either of us touching it. we went to inform the reception lady the next morning on the incident and she was kinda shock to hear that as well.

great garden vieW”

We checkin late, but the owner-like lady was friendly. Clean , large room, with everything you wish for. Stayed comfortably! Wild rabbits and gooses in the garden in the morning, a delightful place to stay. Will come back again!

Excellent”

nice reception staff and nice place to stay.

tidy, neat but small rooms”

easy to find the location with clear sign, nice garden with many birds, rabbits. clean & brillant indoor setting, but quite crowd in the area with one double bed, one single bed, dining table & sofa.

Very Nice ”

Good size and clean

its ok”

internet was limited GB which only totalled 1.5 hour max per day and you have to ask for it. room is not serviced daily. a cooked breakfast is $15.00 pp and you have to cook it yourself,
