Activities & attractionsWildlife & stargazing: Use the provided binoculars to spot the ever-changing birdlife including boisterous black cockatoos, swooping swallows, and tiny finches—some of our favourite feathered visitors! Or try spotting the sealife, as we regualrly have pods of dolphins and seals in the bay. In the evening, relax in the hammock and gaze at the epic southern sky. On clear nights, you might even catch a glimpse of the mesmerising Southern Lights from the balcony during the wee hours of the morning. Rosny Reserve loop: Take the nearby track to Rosny Reserve for a rewarding walk with sweeping views of the city, Tasman Bridge, and Derwent River. To access the loop, turn right at street level and follow the path and signs. During special events like New Year's Eve, the reserve is a prime vantage point for fireworks. Coffee & a stroll: Wander along the boardwalk to Bellerive and grab a coffee or brunch from Gastown East, Abundance on the Quay or Marla Singer. Stroll past the yachts and imagine the seafaring tales of their custodians. Toes in the sand: Continue along the waterfront boardwalk to Bellerive Beach Park and Blundstone Arena. If you’re feeling adventurous, the usually sheltered Bellerive Beach is perfect for a quick, refreshing dip in the ocean. No better way to start your day! Local markets: On most Saturdays, visit the buzzing Tasmanian Produce Market at Kangaroo Bay Park (9am–1pm, weather permitting). Enjoy fresh produce, sweet treats, coffee, and amazing sourdough bread! Occasionally, the Re-loved Market takes over the Bellerive boardwalk, featuring live music and hidden treasures. Check their website for details. Hobart, Salamanca & MONA: Catch the ferry from Bellerive to Salamanca for just $1.70 one way—you can pay easily with your phone or card.

Mt Wellington/kunanyi: If you have a hire car, take the winding scenic drive up Mt Wellington/kunanyi for spectacular views. Alternatively, the Explorer Bus offers a stress-free ride to the summit. Remember, during snowfall, Pinnacle Road may be closed to vehicles. Always dress warmly—it’s 4–5°C cooler at the top, and the winds can be brisk and strong! Eat yourself silly: Hobart is bursting with amazing restaurants and pubs showcasing all kinds of cuisines. It's hard to narrow them down to just a few, but some top mentions include Bar Wa Izakaya, a welcoming, casual bar specialising in Japanese dishes and drinks; Ogee, an intimate corner shop in North Hobart offering simple, honest food and wines; and Maria, a premium Mediterranean-inspired dining experience. Book ahead to avoid disappointment.

Richmond & New Norfolk: Explore these historic towns only 30 minutes from Hobart which boast charming shops, markets, and wineries. In Richmond, we love Frogmore Creek for rainy days, while Pooley Wines shines in sunny weather. In New Norfolk, don’t miss Miss Arthur— our favourite shop filled with unique treasures, browse the local market on weekends or pop into Welcome Swallow Brewery. Huon Valley & Bruny Island: Take a scenic drive south to the stunning Huon Valley.

Alternatively, the Longley Hotel provides a classic country pub experience with hearty meals and a local vibe. Both venues often host live music, so check their websites for upcoming events and tickets. Or, if you have half a day or more, head to Kettering and catch the barge to Bruny Island – a quick 20-minute ferry ride. Arrive early to explore the island's breathtaking sights without crowds, such as The Neck Lookout, Adventure Bay, and Cape Bruny Lighthouse. Around lunchtime, wind your way back towards the ferry and enjoy a sneaky schooner at the iconic Hotel Bruny pub. Then, indulge in fresh Get Shucked oysters or a decadent Bruny Island Beer and Cheese tasting platter to savour the island's local flavours. On the way home, book a twilight session at the Kuuma Sauna Boat for a restorative afternoon. Tasman Peninsula: An hour and bit drive from Hobart, you can start adventure early with the scenic drive to Eaglehawk Neck. We higly reccomend a pitstop at Cubed Espresso, where you can enjoy a warm drink and sweet treat while taking in the breathtaking coastal views. Next, head to the historic Port Arthur site, and immerse yourself in the rich history and explore the well-preserved ruins of this former convict settlement. Make sure you leave some time to discover the natural beauty of the rest of the Tasman Peninsula, with its dramatic cliffs, unique rock formations, and abundant wildlife. Don't miss the Tasman Arch, Devil's Kitchen, and the Blowhole for some spectacular photo opportunities. Once you are ready to return to home, make a stop at Bangor Vineyard Shed.

LayoutThe Canopy Perched on the upper level of the treehouse, The Canopy offers expansive water views, a cosy queen bed, a moody and inviting bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen, and a wrap-around balcony complete with outdoor furniture and a hammock—perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. Seahorse Studio Nestled on the lower level, Seahorse Studio is cocooned by trees and features a luxuriously spacious king bed, a stunning freestanding bathtub, and a charming breakfast bar to start your mornings right. For more infromation see the Layout section below. Privacy and booking options Each space has its own private entrance, offering a peaceful and self-contained retreat. Book one or both spaces depending on your needs. Visit Airbnb for more details, or book both directly through our website to enjoy an exclusive 15% discount. Use the contact page to enquire about your preferred dates. Note Del Sol Treehouse is a unique and bespoke accommodation. Its charm lies in its imperfections, and we hope you embrace its quirks: The handcrafted timber structure has its own personality—some doors may catch, a few windows may not fully open, and the floor might creak in places. Just like any soulful place, it has weathered a few storms. Spiders occasionally weave webs in window corners—nature's creative touch! Due to its design, with multiple external staircases, unsecured verandahs, delicate interiors and step in bath, Del Sol is not suitable for children, pets, or those with significant mobility needs. Del Sol is for the wild at heart who appreciate character, charm and our connection to nature.

KitchenDel Sol Treehouse's upper level, The Canopy, has a fully functional kitchen containing all you could need for a home cooked meal or an intimate dinner party with friends. Basic provisions include coffee, teas, hot chocolate, sugar, salt and pepper and oil. On the lower level, the Seahorse Studio has a breakfast bar for all your coffee and tea needs and a basic kitchenette. We provide complimentary oat and full cream long-life milk for your convenience. However, as we understand that milk preferences can vary, we kindly ask you to bring your preferred type if these options do not suit your needs. If you are staying for more than a few days, Coles, Woolworths and a range of other food and retail shops are located in Eastlands Shopping Centre, about 15 minutes walk away. A further 10 minutes walk (and my personal preference) is Salamanca Fresh, which is attached to Local Pizza. There are also a variety of restaurants, cafes and pubs along Bellerive which is 15 minutes walk away. Or, head into the city to explore some of Hobart's well known restaurants such as Bar Wa or Ogee (bookings essential).
-
Heating & coolingThere are two reverse cycle air conditioners, one on each level. They are very efficient in warming or cooling the space as desired. In the winter months, extra blankets are provided for both beds. If you are still feeling the cold, each level has a hot water bottle supplied as well.
-
Bathrooms & bathtubEach level of the treehouse includes a private, luxurious bathroom. For your convenience, we provide a small supply of shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and face wash. If you're staying more than a few days, we recommend bringing your preferred toiletries. A clothes steamer is also available on each level for guest use. The bathtub is located in the Seahorse Studio on the lower level and is only accessible to guests who have booked that space or the entire property. For the ultimate unwind, we suggest a glass of wine, a generous pour of our provided bath milk or salts, and a favourite book. To ensure the steamiest experience, we recommend drawing your bath outside of peak hours, as the hot water system may take time to recharge after high use. Please note: The Seahorse Studio features a combined step-in shower/bath, which may not be suitable for guests with mobility concerns.
-
Books & musicThere is a collection of coffee table books, novels and vintage finds for you to enjoy. Please return all items to their allocated place before checking out. A Bluetooth speaker is provided on each level so you can enjoy your own music.

-
Fun & gamesOn the upper level, The Canopy, of Del Sol there are a handful of activities including a deck of cards and a chess set. There are four tennis raquets and tennis balls stored in the chest on the balcony outside the front door for your convenience, if you are feeling energetic and fancy a hit at the Rosny Tennis Club. Book your court ahead of time here. I personally prefer to lay on the daybed, watching the comings and goings of the yacht club or wildlife outside.
