Saltwater Sunrise is proudly family-run, led with care by three generations who live and breathe the beauty of Tasmania’s East Coast.
For over 10 years, our founders Rita and Bruce have poured their heart into creating a peaceful, boutique retreat in Falmouth. Rita's son Yuri — a carpenter, furniture maker, maintenance expert and now resort manager — brings craftsmanship, efficiency, and personality to every part of the guest experience.
And while Rita (now the heart of Saltwater Sunrise) continues to oversee the retreat with love, her husband has now retired — happily spending more time engaging with the ocean, swimming, surfing and fishing - and if you a really lucky, he might even dive for an Abalone for you (maybe ... :)
We are backed by a team of incredible local staff, whose attention to detail keeps our ratings high across every booking platform. Their care is a big part of what makes Saltwater Sunrise shine.
Even our daughter-in-law Sarah and grandson Hanno live on the property, adding to the sense of community, continuity, and family care that defines Saltwater Sunrise.
We are not a chain — we are a family. And we are here to make sure your stay is effortless, private, and truly unforgettable.
