As featured in the Sydney Morning Herald `Traveller` and built with locally grown and processed hemp, this luxury holiday home is a first for Tasmania.
Set over two levels with a central timber staircase and a deep soaking bathtub, my guests experience truly unique accommodation, showcasing this incredibly versatile plant.
Sleep on premium hemp linen; use hemp bathroom products; sample complimentary hemp food, and enjoy a hemp cocktail on the deck overlooking the ocean. Pets welcome.
Set over two impressive levels, `Indica House` has an open-plan kitchen and living room on the ground level with amazing ocean views. Upstairs are two private, partitioned queen bedrooms. The bathroom offers a luxurious deep bath (with shower over), the toilet and vanity and incorporates a laundry alcove with a combination washer/dryer. There is a deck with outdoor furniture and a barbecue.
Guests can access the entire house.
Please do not hesitate to reach out to the host during your stay with any questions via text or Airbnb messenger.
Alonnah is a quiet coastal hamlet located on the southern part of Bruny Island. `Indica House` is an easy five minute walk down to Alonnah Beach and the jetty, via Sheepwash Track. Take a short 1km drive to Hotel Bruny for delicious dine in/takeaway food (lunch and dinner) and the island`s only bottle shop. 15 minute drive to Adventure Bay for the closest petrol and general store.
Bruny Island is solely accessed via the Sealink vehicle ferry service departing from Kettering Tasmania. You will need a car to transport yourself around the island as there is no public transport available. There is a single off street vehicle parking available at `Indica House`.
While children are welcome, please be aware of the room/bedding configuration, and note that the internal staircase does not have safety gates.
Both queen beds are located upstairs and the bathroom and toilet is on ground level. These areas are accessible by a timber staircase, and this may not suit guests who need to use the facilities through the night, or who have mobility issues.
For groups larger than two guests, please note that while the bedrooms are completely visually private with lockable sliding doors, they ARE NOT completely soundproofed as the walls have an open slatted timber section at the top, and DO NOT have light-blocking black-out blinds.
If you have a larger group with a guest who requires the sofa bed in the lounge, note that this is a floor-level pull-out futon style best suited to younger visitors. Dogs not allowed on couches or beds. Bring your own pet bedding, bowls and food. Please use the dust buster and mop in laundry for hair removal and accidents. Our property is not fully fenced and there is a LOT of wildlife at dusk and dawn, so dogs must be kept on leash when outside. All poo must be picked up.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

We loved our stay at Indica house. A gorgeous property with so many lovely touches including emergency bathroom supplies, good quality kitchenware, all the hemp products to try, and OMG the beds and linen were so comfy.
