About this property

Peace & Plenty - beachfront hideaway with an indoor heated pool

Peace & Plenty consists of two self-contained guest wings, each with its own fully renovated bathroom and each with panoramic views over Great Oyster Bay. The central living/dining/kitchen area comes with bespoke Tasmanian furniture and quality furnishings, a state-of-the-art kitchen and offers sensational views over the Bay and Freycinet Peninsula.

You can do lots of pleasurable things at Peace & Plenty:
• waking up to watch the glorious sunrise over Great Oyster Bay and the Freycinet Peninsula
• lingering on the deck with a chilled glass of champagne and watching a golden sunset reflected off the majestic Hazards
• strolling along deserted Nine Mile Beach just 70 metres away along a private path from the house
• enjoying a warm dip in the heated indoor pool
• appreciating the gorgeous Southeast Asian and Japanese textile art in every room
• picking fresh herbs and seasonal produce in the veggie garden
• cooking a gourmet dinner in your state-of-the-art kitchen with all the essential ingredients
• and finally luxuriating in your Tasmanian-designed Queen-sized bed, drifting off to sleep with just the sound of the waves breaking softly on the beach.

our short stay at peace and plenty
both ourselves and our friends from Sydney had the most wonderful weeks stay there. it was such a relief to rent a house that was in perfect condition; we even picked vegetables from the greenhouse for dinner. we wanted to extend our stay but it was already booked, so we went to Orford for a few days. in all a PERFECT week thanks to Charmaine.

Perfect in every way
Our second stay at this property. Peace & Plenty is a beautiful home among stunning natural surrounds. The space is gorgeous and beautifully appointed. Luxurious bedding and bespoke furniture along with the indoor swim spa create the perfect haven to relax and enjoy the stunning views of Tasmanian wilderness. Can’t wait for a third stay.

Lovely location. Great amenities.
Loved staying at Peace and Plenty. The pool was clean and we used it every day, at least once. The beds are very comfy and the kitchen is well equiped. A very short walk to a secluded beach and the weather was perfect during our visit A short drive to Swansea to get more supplies. A pity the promised eggs, bacon and Sourdough bread never materialised but it didnt spoil our little gettaway with the grandkids. Will definitely go again.

About the host

Hosted by Charmaine Zheng

Host profile image
My husband Paul and I are lovers of art and design, which shows through in the stylish interiors that greet you on arrival. We live in Sydney. During one of our trips to Tasmania, we fell in love with the unspoiled beauty of Tasmania's East Coast and acquired Peace & Plenty in 2013. We share a love of Asian art and fabrics, and for anything well designed. At Peace & Plenty, we have tried to combine this with the spectacular beauty of Great Oyster Bay and the Freycinet Peninsula.

Why they chose this property

We love the peace and seclusion of Nine Mile Beach where Peace & Plenty is situated. The house is unique because of its secluded location, incomparable views, excellent orientation and design (warm in winter, cool in summer), simplicity infused with Scandinavian and Asian styles and offerings of warm hospitality.

What makes this property unique

The house is styled with Asian textiles and bespoke locally made furniture. Sleek interiors are complemented by panoramic views of Great Oyster Bay and the Freycinet Peninsula. We have decorated the house with love, care and attention to details to maximize comfort for guests and ourselves.

We love food. That is why we have a state-of-the-art kitchen to cater for our passion for cooking. We enjoy a good bottle of wine. That is why we provide a complimentary bottle of local wine (award winning) if you stay for three nights or more.

Good food needs fresh ingredients. That's why we have a local gardener tendering our organic garden to provide seasonal vegetables and fruit for guests.

A good night sleep is essential. That is why our beds are luxuriously comfortable and have won many compliments from our guests.

Good bathrooms are also essential for us. That is why we have renovated our two bathrooms with quality fixtures and designs to maximize guests' comfort and the breath-taking views.

A home away is not complete without a pool. That is why Peace & Plenty offers a heated pool all year round, housed in a purpose-built, air-conditioned room with views to Great Oyster Bay.

Peace & Plenty is more than a home away. It is a little paradise. Over the years, it has hosted wedding anniversaries, honeymoons, birthdays and quiet, romantic getaways.
