An incomparable coastal escape

Imagine yourself in a place where time is tuned to the rhythms of the sea. You’re completely removed from the rest of the world, under vast clear skies, with breathtaking sunrises and panoramic views of the stars. It feels far away but it’s right here, a one-of-a-kind setting for romance, relaxation, reconnection.

Picture unhurried daytimes drinking in timeless views. Enjoy tranquil evenings as flames leap in massive stone fireplaces and the moon rises over the bay. Sleep peacefully within stone walls, strong and immovable.

Thalia Haven sits on a headland directly overlooking the pristine waters of Great Oyster Bay. The 130-acre peninsula is all yours, with four kilometres of coastline and a private white sand beach. Up to eight guests can be accommodated in four stone bedrooms clustered around flowered courtyards.

Wake to the sounds of the sea. Wander along the beach. Be the first to spot the dolphins. Breathe with the rhythm of the waves. Immerse yourself in the wild beauty of our unspoiled coast. Revel in having it all to yourselves.

Open the main living area’s wall of glass to enhance your experience of the sea’s changing moods. Prepare a gourmet feast. Relax by a roaring fire. Luxuriate in complete seclusion and privacy with a bath under the stars.

An easy drive from Tasmania’s main airports, this architect-designed residence is a showcase of self-reliance. Entirely off the grid, your water, power, and warmth are drawn from our land and skies. Every room offers extensive uninterrupted ocean views, with the comforts you’d expect for a relaxing, indulgent holiday.

Guests have exclusive access to the house, land and beach. You’ll find ample space for your family, friends and travel companions to cook, eat and play together. Thalia is stocked with games and books for all ages. King beds, bespoke bedding, an outdoor bath and wood-fired sauna invite guests to relax, unwind and feel revitalised.

Do you love to cook? You will delight in Thalia’s kitchen. You’ll find all manner of cookware, a four-burner gas range, and you can even cook over fire on the indoor and outdoor cooking fireplaces. Help yourself to the pantry’s complimentary staple ingredients. Choose from the abundant culinary herbs growing outside the kitchen door.

Thalia was built from local east coast stone. Massive weathered beams were repurposed from a heritage bridge. A single colossal stone block crowns the living room fireplace. Black limestone floors retain the sun’s warmth. The taps for the outdoor bath rise from an aged branch of Huon pine.

Olive trees shade the courtyards, planted with fragrant lavender and thyme. Carpets of daisies sway in the breeze. Trios of cypresses welcome visitors to the unforgettable experience that is Thalia Haven. Fittings and folk art reflect the owners’ personalities and backgrounds. Scrupulous attention to detail and a carefully curated selection of amenities are hallmarks to enhance the visitor’s experience.

Breathe in. Relax. Revel in the serenity of your time at Thalia Haven.
