Great location, right near the beach in Coles Bay (although no views from the windows, boo!). Nice spacious kitchen and 2 separate lounge/dining areas. Very clean. Unlike the previous reviewer I found the staff very friendly and helpful, happily storing my backpack for me while I did the 2-day Freycinet peninsula walk (highly recommended).

First tasmanian stop after we landed from the Spirit of Tasmania vessel. The Freycinet NP is an amazing place, unfortunately we were too tired for the walk to admire the famous Wineglass bay, claimed to be one of the best beaches worldwide (according to the pictures on the web I agree with this). So we recovered on the beach close... More

Coles Bay is a fairly remote spot. The Caravan Park and units are behind the small grocery shop, take away and pub and they serve the whole community of about 200. The locals are very friendly and most helpful. A lot of people only stay a night and do the walk up to the lookout over Wineglass Bay which is... More

We stayed in a chalet in this Youth Hostel/Caravan Park in November 2010. The chalet was claen and well presented with adequate cooking facilities, fridge and TV. There is a very nice covered outdoor eating area adjacent to the car-space. We stayed for 3 days and found no fault with this accomodation. It is not high luxury but is very... More

No A/C but close to the grocery store (a small one for the small town) and a few restaurants. The kitchen was a decent size but the common area was not. It was clean if not a posh hostel and good for the budget traveller.

My husband and I booked a double room and ended having a 6 share dorm to ourselves which was spacious but, as all of the other rooms were full (with families), the place wa sa bit loud. The paper-thin walls meant hearing not only voices but every footstep both inside and outside. The kitchen is well-equipped and the deck/porch area... More

I had such a great time staying at the Caravan Park. It was clean and well kept and just plain nice. We'd been camping for a while so we splashed out and got a cozy cabin for the weekend and it was lovely. Went to the pub and had a great meal and an awesome time. It was a Friday... More

We got a cabin which had 2 rooms, kitchen, bathroom and lounge and were very happy with what we got for the price. It would have been suitable for a couple and maybe 2 or 3 kids. There are heaps of amenities right in front of the caravan park including bar, bottle shop, fish and chips, cafe etc. Our cabin... More

We stayed at the Iluka coles bay site for 2 nights. The caravan was very spacey and well preserved. The location is terrific if you are visiting the Freycinet peninsula, and the price/quality ratio is very good.
