Perfect home away from home

An elegantly renovated 3 bedroom house located a short (steep) walk away from the city. Beautiful views await from the kitchen/living room and deck. Very happy with our stay.

It's was an amazing stay. The people managing the property were wonderful. Only faults I would say is that I was surprised there was no internet, especially because of the location. That made things difficult with kids. Also no dryer. It would have been nice to have dry clothes rather then leave with wet clothes to pack. The actual house was beautiful and was a mix of modern and traditional. Loved sitting out on the verandah in the morning with the sun rise and enjoying breakfast. Or watching the sun set with all the lovely view aspects.

Great house and garden in great spot in hillside suburb.

Five over 60s had a lovely stay in Omaroo House. The house was very comfortable with an airy new extension at the rear with fabulous views over Hobart. Probably better for two couples as the single bed was more suited to a child. You definitely need a car unless you’re in training for the Himalayas. Close to great restaurants.

Great allrounder

We were impressed as soon as we walked in. Was a fantastic home base for our visit. So warm and cosy, very clean and plenty space for the 3 of us, would easily suit a family, a few couples or group of friends. Beautiful view from the dining table, so relaxing. Also a large yard. Beds were so comfortable. Much nicer than motel and very reasonable price. Will stay there again. There is a big hill if you are on foot, but the rest of it made up for the hill. Wi-Fi would be good but we worked around that. Thanks.

Good family house

The house was comfortable, especially the beds and linen. The kitchen was really well equipped so cooking dinner was a breeze. It was great to have a washing machine but a dryer was really needed with Hobart weather. Our only problem with this house was the real estate. Check in was fine but when attempting to check out they were closed! We tried calling and calling but the paging service kept saying they could only help in an emergency. In the end the office lady arrived at the office at 10:25am. There needs to be a better system for travellers using short term holiday stays.

Beautiful home.

This picture perfect place, was a highlight of our stay in Hobart. The view was amazing whether in the morning with the sunrise or at night with the lights of the town. The home was very comfortable, heating was great and the water in the shower hot. Thank you

Excellent Place and Location

What a great place!!! Fabulous views of the Derwent River from the dining room, kitchen, main bedroom and the backyard. We opened the main bedroom curtains each morning and relaxed in the bed enjoying the view having a cuppa. The dining table was positioned perfectly to always enjoy these views. We also enjoyed watching the yachts sailing on the river and often sat outside with a glass of wine at the end of the day. Excellent location, we walked to the city, Constitution Dock, Salamanca Market, Hill St grocer and Elizabeth St North Hobart that had lots of great places to eat or have a drink. When we did drive it only took a couple of minutes to get to all these places. The beds were very comfortable and the owners have thought of everything you need including games and lots of brochures on sights around Hobart and Tassie. We had 2 cars and there was plenty of room to park at the rear of the house so it was very easy to get our luggage in and out of the house. The booking process was easy and Chellem was very helpful including local giving local info. We loved this place and plan to be back very soon.

Lovely comfortable home with everything you could need. Great location, walking distance to CBD and dock (so long as you don't mind some hills!). Beautiful views. Highly recommended.

Cosy and Comfortable

We really enjoyed our stay at Omaroo House and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. A bit smaller than the pictures really show, but it had everything we needed and felt just like home! This house is obviously well loved and cared for, it was immaculately clean, everything in its place and is well looked after and in great condition. The views are beautiful and the outside yard was nice for the kids, though would be better if it was fenced on 4 sides! LOVED the beds, so comfy and snug in the bedding provided, we all slept just as well as we do at home! Beautiful furniture and nice little extras - books to read, Tassie fudge on the beds!! Owner was quick to respond to emails and answered all our questions prior to our stay. We stayed with 2 adults and 2 children; 7 yrs and 18 months and found it fitted our needs perfectly! Great location, but hard to get anywhere on foot with those amazing Tassie hills!! Would definitely stay there again.

Close to city centre and Salamanca markets. Sleeps up to 5. Out back parking makes it more secure. Very good view from kitchen, dining and one bedroom.
