Saffire Freycinet, Tasmania, Australia, Australasia

Saffire is an awe-inspiring coastal sanctuary, stunningly positioned on the Freycinet Peninsula on Tasmania’s East Coast. Inspirational in its design and location, Saffire undoubtedly provides one of Australia’s most spellbinding luxury experiences. The Freycinet Peninsula is a fully protected National Park and is home to the internationally acclaimed Wineglass Bay – and a walk with an informative guide to the Wineglass Bay Lookout is a ‘must’ during your stay.

Saffire overlooks the pristine waters and wide expanses of Great Oyster Bay where migrating whales and dolphins come to play. Local farms produce fresh succulent oysters and fishing boats bring in their daily catch of rock lobster, scallops and deep sea fish straight from the ocean. The dominant view from every window is the pink-hued granite of the peninsula’s Hazards Mountains, providing a spectacular and ever-changing backdrop from morning to nightfall.

Designed by award-winning Tasmanian architects, Saffire captures the very essence of its unique setting. In addition, it has been built using a framework of environmental sustainability. The glass used has a low percentage of reflectivity, ensuring maximum impact when admiring the surrounding dramatic coastal beauty.
