Your ideal Tasmanian escape
From the serene outdoors to luxurious retreats, explore the perfect Tasmanian getaway tailored just for you.
Tasmania offers an array of experiences for every type of traveller, whether you're an avid camper, a caravan enthusiast, a lover of cosy shacks, a fan of urban staycations, or a seeker of a 5-star luxury accommodation. We asked our Facebook followers, 'What does your ideal Tasmanian escape look like?' and here's what we discovered.
For the camping enthusiasts
You told us that it's all about relishing in the outdoors and the pure joy that comes with camping. Whether you're at the beach or in the country, it's the perfect opportunity to enjoy Tassie's summer. Destinations like Bruny Island, Echo Point and River's Edge, came in on top, providing the perfect setting to unplug and reconnect with nature. If camping isn't for you, consider glamping at Spring Bay Mill or Bay of Fires for a touch of luxury.
Caravanning escapes
Our caravan enthusiasts have shared their favourite destinations, highlighting the simplicity and affordability of caravan trips. Bruny Island takes centre stage, with a caravan park right at your doorstep. Other top picks include the West Coast, Lime Bay, and Port Arthur, providing fantastic experiences for holiday goers. Don't forget, our members can enjoy exclusive discounts on Bruny Island cruises.
Embracing shack stays
For those who adore the rustic charm of shacks, opting for a shack rental is a beloved choice, especially among families. Whether you're lucky to have your very own place or instead book a rental, the East Coast has been chosen as a top favourite by travellers like you. We encourage you to take care on the roads and make sure you're covered with our Roadside Assistance.

And for the ultimate stay Saffire in Coles Bay has everyone dreaming.
No matter your preference, whether it's the simplicity of camping, the freedom of caravanning, the rustic charm of shacks, the convenience of urban staycations, or the opulence of luxury retreats, Tasmania has your dream escape waiting. It's time to pack your bags, hit the road, and explore the many wonders of Tasmania.
