Free Spirit Pods Bruny Island | Tasmania
Beautiful Pod Hideaway
Why we like it
Some places try hard to feel remote. Free Spirit Pods just is!
Tucked away at the wild northern tip of Bruny Island, Free Spirit Pods offer front-row seats to nature, complete with regular wallaby visitors.
Here, you’ve got bush, water and a pod to call home. Just don’t forget your sense of adventure, because the road in is part of the fun.
Everything here is easygoing, from the free breakfast to the free kayaks to explore the surrounding waters.
Additional info
The neighbours are the best bit at Free Spirit Pods!
Pademelons hop about like they own the place (they do), wallabies pop by for a look, and bandicoots do their shy little shuffle at dusk.
The night skies can be spectacular too, with very little light pollution to compete with the stars.
All that’s left for you to bring is a good attitude, sturdy shoes for exploring Bruny Island, and maybe a hat and sunscreen.

Reviews
The views across Quarantine Bay were a highlight of our stay. We loved opening the large glass doors and taking in the scenery, with nothing but nature and the occasional wallaby for company.
