Company information

We are a small locally owned and operated family business. We pride ourselves on our attention to detail and offering our guests an exceptional, one-of-a-kind stay. At SABI our goal is to ensure that every guest feels valued and cared for. As award-winning designers, we have crafted SABI to envelope guests with a deep sense of calm and tranquility where you can seek refuge and respite from the chaos of life to reconnect with yourself, your loved ones and nature. As a young family with two toddlers under two, we made the fortuitous move to Tasmania from the mainland in late 2019. Within months of arriving, we discovered Binalong Bay and were enamoured by the breathtaking deserted coves and beaches. The connection we felt was instant and still moves us. We embarked on a two year project, designed and painstakingly restored the tired cabin on weekends. Now that we have finished the restoration, we spend our weekends at the beach, exploring the surrounding nature reserves, climbing the endless boulders, and when in season, foraging for wild berries. We have been featured heavily in national and international press including but not limited to: VOGUE LIVING, QANTAS TRAVEL INSIDER, THE DESIGN FILES, VACATIONS & TRAVEL, COUNTRY STYLE, NYA RUM (SWEDEN) & MODERN RUSTIC (UK), INSTYLE, HOMES TO LOVE, THE POETRY OF SPACES, CREATE, & NEW COASTAL. Despite our incredible media attention, nothing brings us more joy that sharing SABI with others so that our guests too can enjoy the SABI experience.

Property information

SABI is an internationally recognised, award-winning wabi-sabi wellness retreat that beckons solitude and stillness. A refuge of calm, free from distraction, SABI is located in the heart of the Bay of Fires in the quaint seaside hamlet of Binalong Bay on the East Coast of Tasmania. Perched on a hillside overlooking the bay, SABI is a 300-meter walk from one of Tasmania's most spectacular beaches. Designed around the namesake philosophy of wabi-sabi - finding beauty in imperfection - the handcrafted stone and timber cabin provides a sensory respite and quiet take on luxury. Pure in its authenticity, the retreat is raw but refined in its minimalism. Intentionally pared-back providing a place of quietude, SABI celebrates negative space; there is no excess, no clutter. Sublime in its simplicity, the cabin provides a calming and tranquil space to restore and reconnect. The cabin accommodates two to four adults. Both bedrooms boast king beds atop purpose built platforms rendered in textured microcement. Located on the mezzanine, the spacious primary suite has framed views across Binalong Bay and its iconic repurposed barrel bath with copper-liner for a Japanese-style onsen experience. SABI is incredibly unique and arguably the only accommodation offerings of its kind in Australia. An antidote to life's stressors, SABI offers a restorative stay with all the luxuries of a boutique designer stay in one of Tasmania's most sought after locations. SABI has been recognised on an international scale having receiving a number of awards across design, hospitality and tourism. Our intention was to create a refuge of calm, a place of quietude away from the chaos and demands of life. We have crafted an unapologetically unique authenticity and soulfulness within these walls that we love share.
