Would highly recommend staying here for a homely welcoming experience with touches of elegance and luxury you would norm

The home was welcoming and the small touches, like providing bedding, blankets, toys, water and treats for our cat were amazing. The breakfast hamper was wonderful and the small touches around the home were amazing. We were made to feel welcome and it provided a relaxing atmosphere after a long drive. Late checkout was also a wonderful experience.

The Good, The Bad & The Ugly.

Quiet location, comfortable bed, good water pressure in shower.

All window frames in every room covered in mould and some of the day blinds also...very unhealthy. No smart TV in living room only bedrooms. Toilet bowl and shower base unsightly.

Dog friendly, clean, and comfortable stay :)

10.0

It was the perfect place to stay with our dog before heading on the spirit of Tasmania; just a short drive away. Everything is clearly labelled for ease of use, with lovely gestures throughout, such as dog treats and snacks for us weary travellers. It has a very comfortable bed, and also has a fantastic shower, which is exactly what you need after a long day. Rosina, the host, is so lovely as well. We highly recommend Santa Maria and would stay again when travelling.
