  • Freycinet Resort Development
    FREYCINET RESORT Expansion and Development Plans DESCRIPTION Stylish, comfortable accommodation in a wilderness setting on Tasmania’s beautiful East Coast. Freycinet Resort is a ten-cabin ecofriendly resort situated at Mt. Paul on the edge of the Freycinet National Park near Coles Bay on Tasmania’s beautiful East Coast. The resort has received development approval from Glamorgan Spring Bay Council to build an additional 28 units as visitor accommodation, a redeveloped reception, restaurant, and amenities building as well as a number of additional units as staff accommodation. The resort aims to provide a luxury experience for a reasonable price, striving for superior customer service for its guests. Situated on top of Mt. Paul the resort boasts skylines to both Friendly Beaches and across the Freycinet Peninsula. It is peppered with high quality art – sculptures and installations for visitors to experience as they wander the property. We also have a license to operate a guided walking experience through the fire trails and tracks of the Freycinet National Park which will be operated with the Resort as its base. Once the resort is increased in size to 38 units and with the guided walking experience that resort will contribute to the goal of increased visitation. Once the Tasmanian borders are open to tourists once again this will be a key contribution to East Coast tourism visitation and yield and the recovery from the impact of COVID-19. Aligning strongly with the T21 Visitor Economy Action Plan 2020-2022 this development will contribute to the recovery from the effects of COVID-19 on our tourism sector.
