From the moment you step inside, the view takes centre stage. Expansive windows frame the vivid blues of Bass Strait, drawing the outside in and filling the living space with natural light. Whether you’re sipping your morning coffee or unwinding with a glass of wine at sunset, the ever-changing seascape provides a stunning backdrop throughout the day.
The interiors strike a beautiful balance between comfort and personality. Carefully collected furnishings, natural textures, and artistic touches give the home a layered, lived-in feel—more like staying in a creative retreat than a typical holiday rental. A mix of timber pieces, soft linens, vintage accents, and sculptural décor creates a space that feels both curated and completely at ease.
Here is what you can expect in the home:
Living Rooms: The main living area is a bright, open space featuring a comfortable brown leather lounge, patterned rugs, and an eclectic mix of timber shelving and artistic décor. Sink into the cosy space to enjoy the ocean views, or gather around the freestanding fireplace for warmth on cooler evenings. There is also a second casual living space with a colourful patterned lounge, providing the perfect quiet corner for reading or giving groups a bit more room to spread out.
Kitchen & Dining: At the heart of the home, the modern open-plan kitchen features sleek charcoal cabinetry, a white stone island bench, and stylish lighting. Prepare local produce in this fully equipped space or gather around the large wooden dining table for relaxed meals surrounded by expansive coastal and garden views.
Bedrooms: The home comfortably accommodates up to 8 guests across four well-appointed bedrooms. The primary bedroom offers a tranquil escape, complete with stunning ocean views right from the bed and beautiful textured wall hangings. Throughout all the rooms, soft linens, calming neutral tones, and thoughtful details ensure a peaceful night’s sleep.
Bathrooms: With three bathrooms throughout the home, there’s plenty of convenience for families and groups travelling together. The bathrooms are thoughtfully positioned throughout the property, making mornings and evenings comfortable even when the home is fully occupied.
Laundry: A dedicated laundry area is available, providing a washing machine and dryer for longer stays, beach days, and everything in between.
Outdoor and Location
Step outside and you’ll find yourself perfectly positioned to enjoy everything Bridport has to offer. Spend your days wandering nearby beaches, swimming in clear coastal waters, or exploring local walking tracks. For those seeking a bit more adventure, the region is also known for its world-class mountain biking and renowned golf courses. After a day out, return to Mermaid Bay to relax on the deck, breathe in the sea air, and watch the light shift across the water.
Mermaid Bay Retreat isn’t just a place to stay—it’s an experience shaped by its surroundings and its soulful, eclectic design. Whether you’re here for a weekend escape or a longer coastal retreat, this is a home that invites you to slow down, settle in, and enjoy the simple beauty of Tasmania’s north-east coast.
