Three Hummock Island is one of Australia’s most remote and pristine private stays. Located off the northwest tip of Tasmania, it is a place of dramatic granite headlands, white silica beaches, and inland lagoons. As of 2026, it remains a strictly eco-conscious destination; all power is generated by wind and solar, and water is harvested from rain and a local spring. There are no high-draw appliances (no hair dryers or toasters), and Wi-Fi is provided via Starlink for those who need to remain connected to the modern world while standing at the "edge of it."
Accommodations & Design The Homestead is the heart of the island, offering a cozy, "grandma’s beach house" aesthetic. It features polished timber floors, a log fireplace for the cool Bass Strait evenings, and massive windows overlooking Home Beach. The design is functional and warm rather than high-gloss luxury, emphasizing the historic character of the building. In 2026, the interiors maintain their rustic charm with high-quality linens and a kitchen fully equipped for serious island cooking.
Amenities & Inclusions Amenities on Three Hummock are defined by the island’s raw natural beauty.
Wildlife: The island is a sanctuary for Forester kangaroos, Bennett's wallabies, and Cape Barren geese, which often graze right on the Homestead’s lawn.
Adventure: Guests have use of kayaks and basic fishing gear. The island features numerous hiking trails, including the trek to the 237m summit of South Hummock.
Marine: Incredible beachcombing for rare Paper Nautilus shells and opportunities for seasonal oyster harvesting directly from the rocks.
How Private Is This Island? Privacy at Three Hummock Island is absolute. When you book the Homestead, you are essentially the only residents of the 23,000-acre island, save for two friendly caretakers who live discretely nearby to assist with logistics. There are no other tourists, no public roads, and no outside noise. The 2026 "Exclusive Island" model ensures that you can roam miles of coastline without seeing a single footprint other than your own. It is the ultimate sovereignty for those who want to "disappear" into the wild Southern Ocean.
