Rivermouth on Kingston Beach

Rivermouth on Kingston Beach is a two bedroom apartment that has been architecturally redesigned to embrace waterfront views from all rooms. Situated directly opposite the mouth of the River Derwent and the beautiful Kingston Beach, our deck opens directly onto the Beach with floor to ceiling double glazing, allowing you to be part of the coastline experience.The design of the apartment builds on the waterfront views, with the living room / kitchen area remodelled, resulting in a compact bathroom and smaller main bedroom.

The apartment is in an ideal location. It is situated 10 minutes from the centre of Hobart and Salamanca. Mt Wellington, Bruny Island and the southern Tasmanian wilderness are also in close proximity as well as the food and wine experiences of the Huon Valley.

Rivermouth is immaculately clean, comfortable and warm. The apartment is fully self-contained boasting a contemporary kitchen with an induction cooktop, stone bench tops and fully equipped kitchen and laundry. The bathroom is new and good quality linen and towels are provided. The bedrooms are equipped with one queen and 2 ensemble single beds. There is a portacot available and a highchair available on request.

There is free Wi-Fi via NBN, with a smart TV featuring a range of streaming sites including Netfix, ABC IView and SBSOnDemand.

There is secure off street parking available at the rear of the complex along with a security keypad entry system from the parking lot to the rear of the building. The apartment also has a keypad entry system at the front door allowing guests to not bother with key collection and return. Access to the apartment is up 2 flights of stairs from the rear car park entrance.

A great feature of the apartment including the view and proximity of all major tourist sites is the simple ambience of the sound of the ocean waves as you sleep, and the east facing views across the river out to the Iron Pot and Storm Bay.

There are a number of coastline walks just minutes from the apartment - Boronia Beach along the southern headland and the Allum Cliffs walk along the northern headland, both spectacular walks providing an stunning view of the river. There is also a great selection of restaurants and cafes immediately downstairs, including the newly renovated Salty Dog Hotel, a new style of hotel designed and managed by MONA employees - another great option for guests to experience the wonderful tastes and styles of our food and art renaissance that is happening in this state.

Perfect location
Perfect location! Really enjoyed the river view and proximity to the beach. Close to Boronia Beach walk and Allum Cliffs walk which we did during this stay. We attended the local eateries, all a short walk away. We utilised the bus as the stop was just across the road. The unit was well appointed, we had everything we needed including laundry powder!!! Beds were comfortable and warm. Hope we can stay again at Rivermouth.

Room with an amazing view
We came to relax and use Kingston as a base however we found ourselves coming back each afternoon to simply relax and take in the view and ambience that was Kingston Beach The Salty Dog lured us over with its live music and the food there was delish! The apartment was comfy and we lacked for nothing Thank you for sharing :)

Very dissappointed - not at all acceptable!
Well from the moment we arrived things started to go wrong. Firstly the car park provided was so small that passengers had to alight before I parked. Then we had trouble getting anything out of the vehicle, so I had to back out so we could manage. Not so helpful in the rain. While I'm used to "self-check ins" it doesn't help when the keypad is temperamental. So eventually got in & upon inspection immediately became aware that we'd not made a good choice. Bare floor (concrete or lino?) kitchen that was an afterthought, it went around a corner & became a shared pantry/laundry, with no clothes dryer however. Again not so helpful when travelling. Being right above a fish & chip shop didn't smell so good, nor was the deep frying oil in the walkway very attractive. But worse still was being opposite the pub where a band (who obviously wanted to be heard at some distance) played away for all to enjoy, whether they liked it or not. Now I understand everyone wants their place to be let & that there is no onus on the landlord to inform prospective tenants of any negatives, but the alternative is unhappy people who will never return. That's not to say the area was unpleasant, but when there are fights going on in the street below after pub closing time, that are so bad that police had to attend & indeed take some away... well not what we expected. The yelling, foul language & fighting continued late into the night/morning until eventually they simply got in their cars, did some burn outs & drove away. So for prospective tenants my review is to advise against this one. We stayed in six different locations over two weeks in Tassie & this was by far the worst!

Beautiful view
The apartment was clean, comfortable and everything was provided. Perfect location for viewing and accessing the beach, walks and cafes. The only downside is the noise (traffic, cafes, pub) due to the central location of the unit, otherwise it’s ideal.
