“Shackleton’s Villa” a modern and comfortable retreat inspired by the spirit of Antarctic exploration. Featuring a secure garage, stylish outdoor entertaining area with BBQ, reverse-cycle air conditioning, and a fully equipped kitchen, this villa is perfect for families, groups, or business travellers. Conveniently located just a 10-minute walk to Eastlands Shopping Centre and only 10 minutes from Hobart Airport, the CBD, and Salamanca. Relax, enjoy and rejuvenate.

The space
The main bedroom is beautifully furnished with elegant bedlinen and an extremely comfortable queen-size bed — the perfect place to unwind after your day’s adventures exploring Hobart. There’s even a wall-mounted Smart TV so you can curl up and relax in comfort, much like an explorer retreating to base camp after a long expedition.

The second bedroom features two comfortable single beds, while double glazing throughout the villa ensures a peaceful night’s sleep. In the lounge, one of the sofas converts into a comfortable sofa bed, offering extra flexibility for families or small groups.

If you feel like cooking, the kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need, including a dishwasher and microwave. Although with so many fantastic cafés, restaurants, and waterfront dining options nearby, you may prefer to leave the cooking to Hobart’s locals.

The laundry includes a convenient washer/dryer combo, and outside you’ll find a fully fenced private backyard with outdoor seating — the ideal place for a morning coffee or evening BBQ before planning your next Tasmanian adventure.

Of course, the villa also includes WiFi, board games, a DVD player, and DVDs to help keep everyone entertained during your stay at Shackleton’s Villa.

Neighbourhood highlights

Like a well-positioned expedition base, Shackleton’s Villa places you close to everything you need for your Hobart adventure. Hobart’s largest shopping centre, Eastlands, is just an easy 10-minute walk away, offering supermarkets, specialty stores, cafés, fast food outlets, and Village Cinemas for a relaxed night in after a day of exploring.

Ninja Stadium, picturesque Bellerive Village, and Bellerive Beach are only a 15–20 minute walk away, perfect for enjoying the waterfront, local cafés, and cricket or AFL events. There’s also a bus stop conveniently located right outside the villa, making it easy to navigate your Tasmanian journey.

Hobart’s CBD, Salamanca Place, and Hobart Airport are all just a 10-minute drive away, while some of Tasmania’s finest vineyards and cellar doors can be reached within 10–15 minutes — ideal for those wanting to discover the wild beauty and flavours of the island, much like the great Antarctic explorers once did.
