The location was perfect for our weekend plans in Hobart. Lots of restaurants within walking distance, so it was very easy to meet up with friends and family.

Great home-base for our stay in Hobart. It was close enough to walk to downtown but far enough away that it was quiet. The unit was well-provisioned with thoughtful touches like small jam and peanut butter jars. Yvette was welcoming and kind. One thing to note for other travellers - the house is on a pretty steep hill so if you're driving, make sure your vehicle has a solid emergency brake.

It was in a good location for walking to a variety of shops. The owner left a variety of food for breakfast and there were a lot of spices and other items needed when we cooked in.

Great location and welcoming pet friendly accommodation.

We have just enjoyed 2 very relaxing nights at The Cave, a fantastic location in West Hobart and appreciated all the thoughtful details the host provides. The host dog gets a 5 star rating too!

Tidy unique stay in West Hobart

Cozy nook to set up as a base to explore the sites of Hobart. Yvette's communication and home was a lovely stay. The 2 beds at this price point was great

An absolutely wonderful stay. Clear communication, great location, and the place itself was well catered and clean upon arrival. Something to note for other travellers: the place lies underneath the main property of the owner, and so sound travels very easily from upstairs. It didn’t bother us at all, but may for some other people.

Quiet cosy relaxing experience

We had a cosy experience staying here with all the amenities needed. Lovely location with a view over the city and the sunrise each morning. Yvette is highly responsive and will answer any questions you have. Good location near cool Hobart spots without being smack in the city.

Cosy Sunrise Cave

You walk in the door and you are greated by a beautiful, clean, well presented little hideaway. Cosy and warm in every way, didnt want for anything. Lovely fresh loaf of bread and a selection of fruit as well as tea, coffee and breakfast items. I could go on and on, this place was incredibly ❤❤❤❤❤❤

We had the most wonderful time at the Cave. Such a lovely, comfortable and inviting space :) The location of the apartment was great, lots of restaurants and cafes at walking distance. The communication with Yvette was seamless. We look forward to our next visit ! Kathleen & Hannah

Thankyou Yvette!

We are very happy to have found a great pet-friendly place to stay in Hobart. The Cave is quite unique, small but well-designed with a lovely ambience and pretty garden. It’s warm and cosy with views over rooftops to the city. Yvette has thought of everything and kindly left food and water bowls for our whippet and fresh flowers on the table. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Great little apartment

Very happy with the stay. Clean, smart, plenty of food/drink supplies and even a friendly cat. Host was responsive and happy for us to drop our bags off early. The only negative is a slight lack of headroom above the bed. But very minor issue.

The host was great but I guess there were a few things that would have changed my mind to stay there. The parking or lack thereof, the stairs to get suitcases and gear up and down, the requirement to use a ladder to get into bed, and the 'please don't cook any meat'. Might just be a younger persons gig.....

Hi Anita. I'm sorry these things were a problem for you, but as they are all clearly outlined in the listing and are also clear in the photographs I just don't understand why you'd book a place that was going to be unsuitable for you. Also my message reply when you booked make the fact that there is only off-street parking very clear, and in 12 years of hosting you are one of the very rare guests who have had any trouble with finding a place to park. I have people of all ages staying, all 5 star reviews until yours, and lots of repeat customers, so I know that people who have taken notice of the listing details love my place. Please be sure to read listing information and look at the photos before booking accommodation through VRBO, as it sounds like you may have found a hotel room more suitable for your needs.
