Freycinet Resort

Very beautiful place with amazing views and fantastic service.

酒店建在山上，衹有8間客房，嚴格來説就是8個類似集裝箱的板間房，麻雀雖小五臟俱全，除了浴缸酒店客房該有的設施、用品一應俱全，就是空間略顯憋屈，不過比起山上的美景、清新的空氣那都可以忽略了，重點是人還少，除了個位數的酒店服務人員和滿打滿算20人以內的客人以外，沒有遊客，如果碰到某晚衹有你一個房間入住的話就有種佔山為王的感覺，爽歪了。 酒店服務人員雖少但服務周到，晚餐和早餐都是套餐形式，品種少，但飯熱菜香，在這深山野嶺中顯得格外美味，總的來説是一種獨特的入住體驗，值得嘗試。

荒郊野外的野奢酒店，從路邊進入森林深處大約3公里，一路荒原，形式感極強的大門，感覺是一場探險之旅，可到家後才發現一切都很值得。

還境設備有心思，起身就可以看到日出

Stunning Views across Freycinet National Park and the Japanese 7 course meal and Shabu Shabu well worth the money!! There is currently construction work going on, which we were not made aware of but we did book through a third party, Luxury Escapes. Despite that, we had a great stay and would come back.

The establishment started operations in 2019. It is located at the top of Mount Paul that is reached from Coles Bay Road via a 4 km drive along an unsealed gravel road. In late December, road work was being carried out on the road. On site construction works were also in progress during our stay. The 8 “Ocean View Studios” are closely spaced cabins located in a row at one edge of a gravel clearing of about 200 m in diameter. These cabins have a very compact layout and interior floor space ( ~25 sq m, see photos). From the cabins, the shoreline at Friendly Beach about 3 km away visible through the sliding doors at the foot of the bed. Other windows look into the adjacent cabin. Detailed photos of the interior of these studios are not shown on the resort website. The other 2 lodges called “Hazard View Retreats” have twice the interior floor area with many photos of the interior featured on the resort website. Guests who chose the Ocean View Studios based on photos of the Hazard View Retreats and descriptions of the Studios on the resort website may need to revise their expectations. The Freycinet Resort was previously called the Freycinet Eco Retreat which is probably a more accurate description of the establishment. The area around the 8 Studio cabins has been cleared of vegetation (presumably as a fire safety measure) so the unsealed gravel ground is dusty when windy as the mountain top site is quite exposed. On the opposite side of the clearing is the reception office and the Mount Paul Restaurant. The resort accommodation and the restaurant appear to be separate business enterprises. Included breakfast at the restaurant comprises self-service continental offerings. In addition, one can select 1 of 4 available hot dishes: poached eggs, French toast, chicken rice porridge and vegetarian udon noodles. The latter 2 are quite delicious with a Japanese accent. The restaurant is licensed and the service is friendly and attentive. The furnishings make extensive use of local timber with Japanese themed artefacts in the decor. The glass frontage offers a panoramic view. Dinner comprises 2 Japanese fixed price offerings: either omakase or shabu-shabu. Alternate meal options will involve at least an 8 km round trip on the gravel mountain road. Photos of Studios shown Take care in accepting descriptions on resort website
