The Beach Box at Big Roaring Beach, Surveyors Bay, Tasmania

Start your coastal holiday at The Beach Box at Big Roaring Beach. Set amongst the gum trees and just moments from the sand, this bright, airy, newly built home offers modern comforts, spacious living areas, and a relaxed coastal 'treehouse' vibe. With roof top Bruny Island views, an open-plan kitchen and lounge, and plenty of natural light, it’s the perfect base for creating lasting memories, exploring the southern coastline, and enjoying everything this beautiful part of Tasmania has to offer.

Welcome to The Beach Box, a light, bright, and freshly renovated beach house just moments from the sand of Big Roaring Beach. This stylish coastal retreat, built in 2023, has been thoughtfully designed for families, friends, or anyone seeking a relaxed seaside getaway, combining modern comfort with spacious, sun-filled living areas amongst the tree tops and a relaxed coastal vibe that immediately feels like home.

Inside, the home sleeps up to six guests comfortably. Upstairs, the master bedroom features a queen-sized bed, while the second bedroom offers two king singles. The freshly renovated interiors are bright and airy, blending modern amenities with casual beach-house charm. Downstairs, a separate studio offers a queen bed, its own living area, a compact kitchenette, and a private bathroom — ideal for guests who want extra space or a bit more privacy.

Step outside into the private, secure yard, where a fire pit invites evening gatherings under the stars, an expansive deck provides the perfect spot to soak up the Tasmanian sunshine, and an outdoor hot and cold shower makes rinsing off sand after a beach day easy. Direct access to the beach is through the rear gate and a two minute walk. Balconies on both sides of the upper level provide additional spots to unwind with a morning coffee or evening drink while taking in the surrounding views.

A large external laundry adds convenience, making longer stays effortless, and ample parking available.

The Beach Box is just over an hour’s drive from Hobart along the scenic Esperance Coast Road, offering stunning views of the Huon River, the picturesque Huon Valley, and nearby Bruny Island. The property is within a 10-minute drive of Dover, where you’ll find a local supermarket, petrol station, cafés, and essential shops.

The Huon Valley is famous for its fresh fruit, wine, cider, and salmon. Farm gates, cellar doors, and local produce shops abound, making it the perfect region to explore and taste the local flavours.

For adventure and nature lovers, Hastings Caves and thermal pool are a 30-minute drive away, while Tahune Adventures and Cockle Creek are roughly an hour from the property. Cockle Creek is an unspoilt haven for camping, boating, and fishing, offering a true escape into Tasmania’s wild south.

The Beach Box provides the perfect base to relax at Big Roaring Beach and to explore everything the Far South of Tasmania has to offer, from pristine coastlines and forests to local food experiences and outdoor adventures.

Please note, this property is across two levels and there are no child safety gates so care needs to be taken with the stairs at all times.
