Port Arthur Villas

Port Arthur Villas offers self-contained villa accommodation in Port Arthur, Tasmania, with a focus on privacy, comfort and an unhurried stay. Set within the natural surroundings of the Tasman Peninsula, the property gives guests their own space to settle in, while shared areas provide an option to step outside the villa and spend time connecting with others. It is suited to travellers using Port Arthur as a base for exploring the region, as well as those looking for a quieter break.

The atmosphere is designed to feel calm and easy rather than formal. The villas are described as thoughtfully arranged, with space to unwind at your own pace, while the shared areas are intended for relaxed conversation, a glass of wine or simply taking in the surrounding landscape. Guest feedback on the property mentions clean rooms, comfortable beds, nice views and a quiet setting. Visitors also note the smooth check-in process and the accommodation’s proximity to the Port Arthur Historic Site and the local general store.

The property has welcomed travellers since 1988, when it was established by a local family. In 2025, it was acquired by a Sri Lankan, Sydney-based surgeon with a long-standing connection to Tasmania. The current direction draws on the warmth and hospitality associated with Sri Lankan living, while retaining the existing team and their knowledge of Port Arthur. The accommodation now forms part of the Amadiya brand, which brings together stays across Tasmania, New South Wales and Sri Lanka.

Port Arthur Villas should appeal to couples, families, friends and solo travellers who value a self-contained place to stay, particularly those visiting the historic site and wider Tasman Peninsula. The property’s emphasis is on having privacy when wanted and shared space when it suits. The owners also operate Vélo Wines in northern Tasmania and say a simple on-site cellar door is planned for the future; this is not presented as an existing facility, so the main offering at present is the villa accommodation and its surrounding spaces.
