Tasmania
Tasmania is the perfect place for a luxury summer holiday. Leave the heat behind, and come and explore this wonderful island with its rugged coastline, heritage listed forests, cities and night life. An island of extremes, Tasmania has some luxury tours and five star hotels waiting now for your enjoyment.
On your arrival in Hobart, stay at the Henry Jones Art Hotel, the first and only hotel devoted to art in Australia. Combining the old architecture of the docks with ultra modern design, the Henry Jones makes your luxury vacation more intimate and interesting than any other Australian Hotel. Named after a boy who worked in the original on-site jam factory, Henry Jones rose to own the world's largest privately owned company which became an Australian icon.
Set harbour side, each suite has original art work (which are all for sale) and all the modern conveniences found in a 5 star hotel. With views of the harbour or the exciting atrium, you will feel at home with the silk bed coverings and spacious bathrooms. With many industry awards dating back to 2004, you will not be disappointed.
While in Hobart, there is much to keep you busy. Visit the Art Gallery, Museum and the Salamanka Markets which are held each Saturday. Sail the Harbour or take a private tour up Mount Wellington for the fantastic views. Hire a guide to show you round the infamous Port Arthur where the convicts were held or take a hike along the three hundred metre high cliffs butting up against the wild Tasman Sea. These luxury tours will give you the history of this land as well as its inherent beauty.
If you like to get away from it all and hike in some of the worlds most intact old forests then a stay in Voyages Cradle Mountain Lodge is for you. This luxury escape is set the closest to the world heritage listed forests of Cradle Mountain ? Lake St Clair National Park which has at least twenty hiking tracks. They are all graded and even if not fit, you will still be able to access this amazing and unique part of the world. Take in the reflections of Cradle Mountain in Dove Lake. Walk through ancient native plants and if you are quiet you may be rewarded with a sighting of a quoll, platypus or Tasmanian devil.
After your hike, return to your luxury accommodation at Cradle Mountain Lodge. In the King Billy Suite, you will have a double sided fireplace, king bed and huge bathroom with spa. If you prefer, take a dip in your own private hot tub on the deck. Enjoy the complementary canapes or fondue which will delight your tastebuds before revelling in some fine dining in the Highland Restaurant. Ask for a delicious picnic to take on your hikes through this amazing countryside. After all that walking, enjoy a massage at the Waldheim Alpine Spa.
From the Lodge, take a guided walk, hire a mountain bike, spend some time fly fishing or enjoy some Tasmanian wine and cheese tasting. In summer, canoe on Dove Lake or in winter go snow tobogganing. Join the native animal night viewing tour to see the many different native fauna.
Because of its diversity, Tasmania offers some of Australia's most sought after luxury accommodation and luxury tours.
