After hiking for days in Tasmania, we splurged on a 4-night stay at Saffire. It was an amazing place with first-rate staff and service. Our room was impeccable, food and wines were excellent, bartenders were great (try some Tassie whiskey or gin), and the guides were top-notch. We really enjoyed the Oyster Farm experience and the Schouten Island boat ride. If you like hiking, consider the self-guided Hazards Loop (about 11k/8m) through beautiful beaches and bush. What a pleasure to stay at such a well-run property. Thanks to everyone who made our stay so special.

Luxury in Tasmania

Amazing stay in a stunning location with wonderful service, tours and food and drink. From being greeted at the airport and welcomed at the resort the whole experience was brilliant. The excursions were fascinating particularly 
connection to the country with Mick and the Tasmanian Devils with Nicole.  Five night stay was great, big thank you to Patrick , Will and team for an outstanding holiday. Highly recommended.

Great holiday, highly recommended

Wow, wow, wow! I don't even know what else to say! Everything here is beyond fantastic! The rooms are beautiful and comfortable! The food is absolutely amazing! The various tours such as the beekeeping experience, the hikes and the oyster farming are not to be missed. My husband and I both had massages.  I'm quite particular about massages but this was heavenly. And last but certainly not least, all of the staff are super nice qnd do everything to make your stay memorable! Thank you for such a lovely stay!

Amazing!!!

On a scale of 1-5 they are a 10. In our case, the excellent service began before we even landed... we were contacted by the team to address menus and preferences prior to even beginning our trip. And it only improved upon our arrival. Our family of 5 was met curbside and escorted inside to the check-in area and then ushered down to our adjoining suites where everything was explained. After a short break we had our first arranged experience - visiting a local oyster farm... which doesn't sound too exciting on the surface, but having a personal guide take us out into the middle of a small bay in waders and picking oysters out of the water, shucking them and enjoying them with a great Tassie white wine was a spectacular way to start the trip. We took an incredible hike to Wineglass Bay the next day and then visited the resident Tasmanian devils - truly inspiring and educational. Our stay was entirely too brief, but was highlighted by amazing service from start to finish. The accomodations were top notch, the views were spectacular, and the food and drinks were excellent... but they all paled in comparison to the truly exemplary service provided by the staff. Friendly, knowledgeable and beyond helpful, I felt like they were part of the family before we even left. Needless to say, we WILL be returning... and staying longer!

It doesn't get better than this!

Saffire Freycinet is truly a one-of-a-kind hospitality experience, unlike anything I have ever seen before. My wife and I stayed three nights to celebrate our honeymoon. The property is situated on the edge of Freycinet National Park, overlooking the beautiful Hazard Mountains, and every room has a view of this dramatic scenery. The client service is exceptional - the staff knew our names, food/drink preferences, dietary restrictions (with a special dinner menu printed each night for my wife, who is newly pregnant), and took the time to create small experiences for us throughout our stay. We enjoyed the Tasmanian Devil, Oyster Farm, Cooking Demonstration, Freycinet Bay Walk, and spa experiences - all led by friendly and highly knowledgeable guides. The food at the Palate Restaurant was inventive and consistently good — breakfast, lunch and dinner. We had a wonderful stay at Saffire and are sad that no place else will ever live up to this experience. Luxury at its finest. 

Wonderful Honeymoon Experience 

My husband and I recently stayed at Saffire Freycinet for three nights, including New Year’s Eve.  We have been fortunate to stay at many great resorts throughout the world(Borgo Santo Pietro, Huka Lodge and Villa La Coste),  but Saffire deserves to be at the top of the list!  We had a fantastic experience, coupled with the highest standards of customer service, gourmet food and beautiful accommodations.

The staff provided service that made us feel like special guests in a private home.  No request was denied, and when we mentioned that we were interested in tasting Tasmania wine, the sommelier setup a private tasting for us in the lounge one afternoon.  The activities were world class, as we took a cruise to wineglass Bay(with a shoreline picnic), Did the Oyster Experience, and enjoyed all the activities on the property.

The dining room featured casual dining for breakfast and lunch, while dinners were elegant affairs, complete with local wines.  The New Years Eve dinner was one we’ll remember! (6 courses paired with special wines).

And a special “thank you” to Sharon at the Saffire airport lounge, whom make our visit complete.

This deserves to be on everyone’s bucket list.

How do we top this experience!

Another wonderful stay at Saffire.  Our entire trip had been booked through our travel agent and although we’d had no direct contract with the lodge, they organised a suggested itinerary based on included activities to ensure we didn’t miss out.  The devil sanctuary is well worth a visit as are the included guided hike options. Our favourite this trip though was a beekeeping insight with Rob.  It was both informative and amusing as Rob is a hoot with a dry wit.  

The food was excellent as before and the whole level of service was outstanding.  In contrast to other places were it is clear there are struggles on staff post pandemic, Saffire did no appear to be understaffed and indeed a number of staff members were there from our previous visit in 2018.  

Tasmania is wonderful and a stay at Saffire is a highlight.  Many thanks for a fabulous stay.

My favourite hotel ever

Everything else is downhill from here after experiencing Saffire. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted and shown to our room which was absolutely beautiful, with the most amazing view. Honestly, there was barely a spot in the entire place that had didn't have an amazing view-- you can sit and have dinner (as much or as little as you'd like, it's all included!) watching the sun set over the bay and enjoying the beauty of nature. 

The staff is wonderful and was so understanding and helpful with every single one of our requests, no matter how big or small. The team that took us on excursions: Nichole, Gareth, and Jordan, such a wonderful job. So much attention to detail that made exploring Freycinet  such a great experience. Alpha, who both greeted us and said farewell, and provided us with instruction on how everything in our suite worked and answered any questions we had. I'm terrible with names so I can't remember any other names off the top of my head, but the staff did such a wonderful job making us feel welcome and cared for, they even packed little sandwiches for our drive back to Hobart since we wouldn't have time to stop for food!

Thank you again for everything, it was amazing and we'll certainly be coming back here again!

Absolute Perfection

Wow, superlative in every respect. Wonderfully situated; beautifully designed , subtle and understated; food stunningly presented, innovative, different and delicious; staff super friendly and helpful.

If you have an opportunity to visit, do!

Super, super, super

There was nothing that wasn’t thought of at Saffire.   The staff was completely attentive to all our needs.   Many tours were included and it was always a small group led by a Saffire team member or a
knowledge guide.   Our room had a magnificent view through a large glass window to the Hazards mountains.    We woke up each morning to such beautiful scenery.   Be sure to consider this place for your trip to Tasmania
