“Lufra Beachside doesn't try to be something it isn't, and that's its charm; it's a comfortable base for exploring the Tasman Peninsula. What stands out is the location, perched perfectly for those Pirates Bay views and easy access to the Tessellated Pavement. I found it to be a solid, unpretentious option with a surprisingly good bistro that champions local Tasmanian fare.”
