You only need stand on the expansive deck and look out toward the sea to see why this place is called Diamond Island. This is a jewel in the sea. Our Beach is Redbill beach is only a stone's throw and accessible via Gordon St). We call it 'our' beach because it certainly feels private. I assure you, once you step foot on the beach and feel the sun on your skin and wind in your hair the stress and worry of your everyday life will be carried away on the gentle breeze.
At low tide, you can venture across the sand bar to visit Diamond Island. Extreme care is required to avoid disturbing the delightful little Fairy Penguins as this is a protected sanctuary for the little birds.
Swim the crystal clear water, surf the waves, explore the rock pools, go beachcombing for seashells, or just relax on the spacious deck at 'The Retreat' with a glass of chilled Tasmanian bubbles or a frosty ale. If you are lucky you may spot dolphins playfully frolicking in the shelter of Diamond Island or perhaps even Humpback whales on their migration along the East Coast.

Linen, doonas, pillows, blankets and towels are all provided. You also have access to our laundry facilities (washing machine and dryer).
