Very warm and welcoming. Beautiful atmosphere and convenient that water and butter and jam were in the fridge so you don’t have to bring EVERYTHING. I would definitely stay again.

A stunning getaway in Huon Valley

It was so difficult to leave Casita Rica. The tranquil setting, immaculate abode and warm hospitality made our few days exploring the Huon Valley without a doubt one of our most favourite getaways.

Gorgeous cabin in gorgeous spot

Casita Rica is lovely. The owners created something quite special in this little cabin. Lots of nice touches, the layout is great and well appointed, the view is to die for, it's very private and the area is simply stunning. One of the nicest little holiday houses we've stayed in, in a long time. I'm sure we'll be back at some stage
