The actual Convict area is simply amazing as are the free talks that occurred during the day. We were not fully prepared for the lack of outlets for food, lack of super market, restaurants etc. The one good out let offered a range of take away food but not good!

The historic site is magnificent and well managed. The general store is very disappointing, you should not rely on it if you are self catering
Gabriel's, the restaurant by the beach , was excellent I recommend it.
The restaurant at the Port Arthur motel featured poorly trained staff who seemed unaware of what service means. My girlfriend was served lukewarm seafood chowder with both the spoon and the garlic bread partially submerged. She asked for the chowder to be properly heated, this was seemingly done in a microwave. It was then returned with the same soggy bread.

Couldn't get into ghost tours or 1830 restaurant.. they were closed. Tried to get helicopter flight.. left message but never responded. Only 1 decent restaurant but the meals a bit light on considering price point and didn't seem to serve full meal. Loved the unzoo.

The Port Arthur area is beautiful, with glorious scenery and friendly people. The restoration of the Port Arthur Historical Site and the emphasis on truth versus “fairytale fantasy” does a great deal to enhance its appeal. It is not the miserable place that Australian historical literature has traditionally portrayed it as, but we discovered that it was, in fact, a combination of both progressive and regressive measures to reform prisoners. This is made clear by the information available. The staff are very responsive to visitors’ needs and questions, and literally go out of their way to help. Staff were always around everywhere on the grounds, and there was no shortage of help available. One example of this was when we were walking up towards the Soldier’s Memorial Avenue, and a chap driving a buggy asked if we wanted a lift. He then took us on a short, personalised tour of the entire grounds, answering the many questions we had and clarifying what we’d heard (thank you so much). Also, on our walking tour, I discovered I had not booked a time for the harbour cruise, so after we’d finished, our tour guide took the time to ring Reception and get us on the next cruise. The guided tours vary, however, according to personal knowledge and the sometimes political stance of the guides.

We didn't visit the Port Arthur historic site this time as we've been before, but if you've not ever been we would recommend that you do.
Our accommodation was a short walk to Stewarts Bay Beach, the local shops and the Pennicott wilderness cruises office. We loved walking at Safety Cove Beach, which is a very short drive from Port Arthur - a great crescent of white sand backed by trees, where you are often the only people there. As you drive there, the view across the water to the cliffs and sea stacks is fabulous, and you also get glimpses into the Port Arthur site grounds.
Viv has set up a beautiful accommodation in lovely part of Tasmania. It is spotlessly clean, extremely comfortable and had everything you could need and one of the best breakfasts we've had. Plus new bread and biscuits. Copious amounts of information about the local area Anya detailed folder on how all the utilities work. Viv was a lovely and helpful hostess. This place has everything you need and more. Thanks for a lovely stay, Viv. We highly recommend a stay here.
Stewarts Lodge is in a perfect location, walking distance to Port Arthur, Water cruise tours, local take aways and store it has a restaurant on site, walk to the beach or a bush walk. The cabins were cosy had every amenity required eg. washing machine, dryer seperate lounge and kitchen, bathroom with toiletries and fresh towels. The property is kept clean and bush and garden areas neat and tidy it is quiet and has fabulous walking tracks.
We had to return rental car and fly out the next day so we decided to stay in Port Arthur rather than Hobart. Everything worked out well. It was a 1 hour or so drive to Airport and we avoided the city center. The plus on this was our stay at Port Arthur Villas. Our host greeted us at check in and even called and made us a dinner reservation across the street. I would definitely recommend this establishment.
The cottage was a beautiful stay away from the hustle and bustle of city life here in Tasmania, our host was super friendly and we also were introduced to their beautiful dog too. The cottage was perfect for the two of us, had all the amenities we needed and also had a smart tv so we could watch Netflix/Stan etc. Definitely a must visit and stay whilst traveling around Tasmania!
The room was bright and spacious overlooking the water. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean.
The hotel has a restaurant and bottle shop attached. The restaurant food was good, reasonably priced and the place has a lovely ambiance. Port Arthur historic site is only 5-10 minutes up the road. Overall we were very happy with our accommodation.
Amazing water view from the room - I could just stay inside all day and enjoy the view. Reception staff are friendly. The room is spacious the bed is comfortable. It is very close to the shops and historic sites of Port Arthur, and very central to access all other locations in Tasman Peninsula. Air-con works perfectly
When did caravan parks become this good ?
Cabin very nicely refurbished , excellent customer service.
Expansive grounds , campers would love the massive shared kitchen facilities , numerous bbq areas ,a pizza oven and entertainment room with massive tv
For the kids a play area and awesome bike area
A stunning and convenient location near the Port Arthur Historical Site. We stayed before and after walking the 3 Capes Track. Very nice cottages with tranquil views of Stewart's Bay and the surrounding bushland. Lots of facilities but we especially liked the on location restaurant and bar :-)
This was one of the nicest cabins we've stayed in at a caravan park, it was modern, clean and very well equipped. The outlook from the balcony was so beautiful and the staff were very friendly and helpful.There was even milk in the fridge so we could have a cuppa when we arrived!!!
Best property we stayed in on our trip to Tasmania.Value for money was exceptional. Everything you could possibly need . Laundry available . Restaurant available over road and plenty just down road at township . Highly recommend to all travellers heading that way .
Our stay was very comfortable and the property was much bigger than we initially thought. Great value for money with the amount of extras in the house + a coffee machine is always a bonus!
Would definitely recommend this place to anyone staying in Port Arthur.
We love our stay. The cottage was clean and tidy. Amenities are modern and looks like a hotel quality. Direction to the cottage was clear and easily reached by car. The host was friendly and glad to took us for a tour of their farm.
Stunning view as you walk into your room. Very family friendly. staff were great! location was just a 5minute drive to Port Arthur site. The food at the restaurant was delicious. Would definitely stay again.
The property was in an absolutely gorgeous location, right on the water with a view of the Port Arthur Historic Site. The property was really comfortable.
Very roomy cottage for a stay near Port Arthur with a good pantry of staple items. A tour of the farm was great as we learnt about the Highland Cattle.
