Welcome to Admiral Cabin, a luxurious off-grid retreat on King Island, Tasmania.
Welcome to Admiral’s Cabin, nestled in one of the most stunning locations on King Island. This exclusive getaway offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the island's coastal beauty.
Conveniently located 8km from the airport and just 3km from Currie town on a sealed road, the cabin is set on 15 hectares of rugged west coast scrub leading to British Admiral’s Beach. Enjoy spectacular views and a short 500m walk to the popular town beach and natural swimming hole at Netherby Point.
Completed in July 2024 by award-winning Design Tribe Projects, this environmentally sustainable cabin is 100% off-grid. It features rainwater tanks, septic system, solar power, and batteries, double glazing, and triple insulation, boasting a 7.3-star NatHERS rating. Experience modern comforts while being mindful of the environment.
Relax with breathtaking ocean views through oversized double-glazed windows in every room. The large southwest-facing deck offers a perfect spot to enjoy the salt spray, sheltered from the Roaring Forties.
Wake up to incredible views from your bed, with nothing but lush scrub and ocean in sight. Enjoy complete privacy with no neighbours between you and British Admiral Beach. End your day with a fire and watch the sun set over the ocean.
Explore the abundant nature with walking tracks right at your doorstep. Spot wallabies, echidnas, and a variety of seabirds. Our favorite walk starts at the British Admiral’s beach car park, leading south along private beaches.
The kitchen is designed to highlight King Island’s world-class produce, featuring an extra-large dining table with amazing views.
The cabin’s design respects the natural landscape, maintaining as much of the existing flora and fauna as possible across the 15-hectare property.
Stay connected with Starlink Internet, as phone reception on the island is limited to Telstra.
