If you love an amazing view then this is the place that you want to stay. You could spend hours just watching the changing view during the day. We had a wallaby and her joey feed around the cabin which was lovely. Easy walk to the beach to enjoy either the beautiful beach or to enjoy some fishing. The bed was comfy but the couches could do with an update. We were lucky enough to not have anyone else in the other cabin as there is not enough separation or privacy if there was someone else there. Overall a wonderful stay but is starting to feel in need of a little TLC.

Fantastic location which justifies the high price. Duplex apartment which was comfortable, but definitely not fantastic.

Stayed for a few nights in Stormy Cabin. The cabins are at the other end of the island so a couple of hours drive from Penneshaw but once you arrive down there you will be amazed. It is absolutely beautiful and wild and uninhabited. The cabins are very close to Flinders Chase NP which was burnt out a few years ago with bushfires but the whole area is regenerating and the animals are coming back into the area so saw koalas and lots of kangaroos which is great. The cabins are set back on a hill overlooking Hanson Bay and the views are spectacular. No TV in the cabin so it was time to just relax and rejuvenate and just be with nature. Very private area and lots of lovely walks from cabins down to beach. The only thing was when someone else arrived in cabin next door there was not much privacy and if you don't get friendly talking neighbours then it can be awkward as there is no wall between each cabin balcony and it is a shared BBQ. It would be ideal to put a wall between so there is more privacy between cabins and put a BBQ on each balcony. Apart from that it was perfect.

What an amazing view these cabins have, we stayed here for 3 nights and found the location great base for some of the local attractions. Alot of damage caused by the bushfires is slowly re generating. Sadly l think while they have been trying to look after the wildlife sanctuary l think the cabins have been somewhat neglected and they are badly in need of some serious TLC l wish Tom and the team all the best in there rebuiding phase.

One of the most amazing places I have ever stayed. Entire beach to yourself or one fisherman, night skies that are sooo spectacular, close to Flinders Chase for daily walks and sightseeing, panoramic views, fireplace and bbq. Good communication. Please don't tell too many people about this unique special place. Do tour of wildlife sanctuary as well. Self cater bring your own food, make sure you have plenty of fuel although you can fill up at camping grounds down the road. Walk to Kelly Caves.

The isolation was amazing, I don’t think I realized the two cottages were connected to privacy could be an issue if the other people were chatty!

We stayed in the Stormy Petrel cabin and it was breathtaking. The views were incredible and the location itself it so special in the gorgeous bay with clear water, stunning coastal vegetation and all the wildlife. It was so good having next to no one else around. The cabin was fitted out really well with everything we needed for our stay.
