Ocean-view accommodation at Cooinda on the Beach in Bicheno, Tasmania.

Watch migrating whales, dolphins & seals

Playful dolphins are frequent visitors too, leaping through the surf with joy, while curious seals can sometimes be seen basking on the nearby rocks.

Watching them from your private beachfront accommodation is a reminder of how wild and wonderful this coastline truly is.

Cooinda on the Beach isn’t just close to the ocean - it’s part of it. From your deck, you can often spot migrating whales gliding through the deep blue, their majestic tails breaking the surface in the distance. During certain times of the year, these gentle giants make their way along the East Coast of Tasmania, and Bicheno offers one of the best vantage points to witness this natural wonder.

From our beachfront accommodation in Bicheno, you’re just moments away from Bicheno’s local attractions

Step outside to the sand, stroll along the beach, or unwind on the deck as the sun sets over the sea. Explore coastal walks, go penguin spotting at night, or indulge in Tasmania’s famous seafood and wines.

And when you return to your peaceful beachfront holiday rental, the sea will be waiting, its soft, familiar song filling the evening air as you relax on the deck, a blanket around your shoulders, and a sense of contentment in your chest.

It’s these simple, magical moments - a whale’s spout in the distance, a dolphin’s splash beneath a golden sunset that make Cooinda on the Beach a place you’ll never forget.

    Kelly ★★★★★

  • We had such a relaxing stay at this lovely holiday house in Bicheno, Tasmania. The place is beautifully styled, with a cozy and welcoming feel throughout. It was spotless, which made it even easier to settle in and enjoy. The sea views were stunning, and being so close to the shops was really convenient.

  • What a place! Even better than the photos if you can believe it. So many small details where the extra effort has gone in to make it special. We were lucky enough to be here on a clear night and the sky was amazing. Will definitely come back again.

    Jordan ★★★★★

  • Stunning view, beautiful house perfect location. We walked everywhere and enjoyed lots of Sauna’s with a view that is hard to beat. Will definitely be back. Thanks for having us.

    Emma ★★★★★

  • Cooinda was absolutely amazing. It had everything you needed and more. Extremely well appointed. The view is simply stunning, and it has your own path to the beach. The water was crystal clear. It’s both private, and central to Bicheno. Definitely try out the Lobster Shack, and the walk over the rocks around the point….(And the 9 hole golf course nearby if you get the chance - a top notch country course) Emily the host was welcoming, informative and helpful. Highly recommend this accomodation. We certainly hope to be back.

    Peta ★★★★★

  • Exceptional location right on the beach and within close proximity to local shops. The house itself is beautifully maintained, offering a serene and relaxing environment perfect for a getaway.

    Tom Trotman ★★★★★

  • This beautiful house was the highlight of our trip! Cosy, with all the luxuries, ocean views, private access to the beach and a short walk into town. Absolutely loved our stay and hope to be back.

    Aims ★★★★★

  • Emily’s place was absolutely beautiful - wish a rustic beachside feel in a delightful location. The decor was classy and we had a fantastic few days there. Would highly recommend!

    Lisa ★★★★★

  • Love the accolades in the weekend mags..Perched on top of a sand dune with 180 degree views over the torquoise waters of Waubs Bay and right across to Diamond Island and Redbill Beach. Cooinda is truly one of the most spectacular places I have had the pleasure of staying in. It is gorgeous inside and out. It’s been such a treat to be a guest!

    Rhonda Hafey ★★★★★

  • What a spot! The view and proximity to the beach were wonderful, and the house is a short walk to the local shops. The house is a good size, well laid out and beautifully furnished, with a kitchen stocked with plenty of utensils, coffee machine etc. Everything was clean and tidy, the kids loved the huge bath and we also loved the outdoor shower. Premium linen and comfortable beds made for a very comfortable stay. Seeing whales and dolphins from the deck was the cherry on top! Thanks for a great stay, we loved it!

    Victoria ★★★★★

  • We don't think twice to book this place again. Such a beautiful property! Super private but still have direct access to the beach! Top class decorations- not eye soring. Premium toiletries- you get what you pay for! Well organised and fully loaded kitchen (even though we did not use it). Loved the sauna (thanks!) - it was not a fake IR sauna but a real cedar wood traditional steam sauna. We just felt like home, such a relaxing holiday!!! Thanks again!

    Saminda ★★★★★

  • WOW. Just wow. Everything about this house was incredible. The house itself is new, clean, and comfortable. But the kicker is the deck overlooking the bay. Just a stunning view and a perfect set-up to take it all in. With the deck doors all the way open it’s the perfect indoor/outdoor living space. This was my husband’s favorite AirBnB in all of our two weeks in Tasmania. We hated to leave! It’s just beautiful. Do yourself a favor and book it if you can. You won’t regret it. FYI, though there is a path from the property down to the beach, that area is being replanted and therefore it really shouldn’t be used. It’s an easy walk down the road to get to the beach, though.

    Dora ★★★★★

  • Just book this place! We loved everything about it. It was beautifully furnished, beds were comfortable, and the living room had a wonderful view of the sea. We would definitely come back to stay if we visited Bicheno again. And Emily was really responsive and very helpful. Just one small weeny comment - the rooms were rather cold (we visited in winter) as the heating unit was located in the living room.

    Yeng Yun ★★★★★

  • Definitely a 5 stars stay! Has a beautiful beach just at the door step and the interior is gorgeous.

    Priscilla ★★★★★

  • We absolutely loved our stay in this beautiful home. Every detail has been so thoughtfully considered - from the stylish decor to the cozy touches that made it feel like a true retreat. The space was not only stunning but also exceptionally comfortable, with everything we needed for a relaxing and seamless stay.

We would return in a heartbeat and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a special place to stay.

  • Perfect place to relax and unwind after day trips exploring all the area has to offer. Easy walking distance to the cafes and shops in Bicheno, the most pristine beach on your doorstep and a stunning view.

    Alica ★★★★★

  • We loved our stay. The furniture and decor was gorgeous, upstaged only by the view! We enjoyed popping down to the beach for a chilly morning swim or walk along the rocks. A great location just around the corner from the main shops and restaurants but felt like we were in our own world. What a special place! We’ve told our friends and hope to be back soon!

    Kateena ★★★★★

    Kathy ★★★★★

  • AMAZING!! Can’t fault this place at all - will be back in a heartbeat!

    Freya ★★★★★

  • This property was absolutely beautiful, on the Bicheno beachfront with 180 degree views. The photos were an accurate representation and exceeded expectations. It was an ideal location, with an easy walk to the local shops and restaurants and a few steps to the beach and the crystal clear water. We loved both sitting on the deck with a glass of wine in hand and in the inviting lounge with the fire when the weather wasn’t so hospitable. The house was immaculate, beautifully and stylishly furnished. It would have to be one of the best homes in Bicheno! I Iwould highly recommend this home.

    Helen Johnson ★★★★★

  • A beautiful, well equipped home in a stunning location. The view is to die for!

    Bill ★★★★★

  • We stayed for a couple of nights with a family of 6 and a 1 year old. The place is just beautiful. The location is perfect, just a quick walk to Bicheno beach. It was a 30 min drive to the Freycinet national park. The bed was very comfortable everything was new and quality 👌 Wish we booked for longer.

    Jay ★★★★★

  • You could not ask for a better location to stay, the property itself is stunning and so well thought out. I will 100% be back

    Aaron ★★★★★

  • The best location in Bicheno, 2 doors away from the Surf Life Saving club & 200 metres from shops. This stunning house is beautifully styled with all the high end creature comforts and feel that you would usually expect at a 7star hotel. It's private sunny deck faces the ocean where you can see the whale spouts from the comfort of your deck chair or dinning table.

    Karen Harmsen ★★★★★

  • Great location, beautiful books. Lots of firewood, great view

    Debbie ★★★★

  • We had a wonderful two days at Emily’s place. The place was even better than the pictures. Absolute luxury. Beautiful beach, lovely outdoor shower, the sauna, such comfortable beds and our kids loved the fire pit. Wish we could have stayed longer. We would love to visit again.

    Ilsa ★★★★★

  • We had the best time staying at Cooinda On The Beach. The house was awesome, super comfortable and in such a perfect spot. Every day was full on in the best way. Went surfing and saw heaps of whales, daily swims, played a round of golf, hit up the local bakery (elite), and even made it down to Wineglass Bay for some hikes. Hard to believe we fit all that into just four days! Such a great place to stay. Can’t wait to come back!

    Jackson Trotman ★★★★★

  • We had such a wonderful few days in this stunning house on Waub’s beach, right in the dunes. The view is captivating in all weather (and we had it all) and catches all day sun. Very comfy beds and the house had everything we could need. Lots of happy family memories, especially dips in the freezing ocean and warm ups in the beautiful outdoor shower and sauna. Thank you!

    Jacqueline ★★★★★

  • The getaway experience doesn’t get better with ocean at the bottom of a native garden, prue white beaches and clear blue water. This quality, stylish home even caters for wellness with a sauna, yoga mats, in house massage and surf boards. You will loose time in contemplation mesmerised by the view. You won’t want to leave.

    Toni Royston ★★★★★

  • Beautiful! We loved the curated furnishings, the luxury linen & of course the location was absolutely stunning! The sauna was the cherry on the cake, but keep in mind it is an extra cost!

    Kelly ★★★★★

  • Amazing location with our own beach to walk into. Everything was immaculate from the high quality linen to the bath and essentials. Felt so relaxed all week. Big bonus was the sauna with the view! Just stunning. Can’t wait to come back!!
