Both Sativa House and Indica House are located on Bruny Island, a stunning tourist destination off the southeast coast of Tasmania. Guests who book a stay have an opportunity to create meals in the fully equipped kitchen while trying locally grown and processed hemp food in the form of hulled hearts, protein powder, and oil, with products supplied by both Hemp Harvests and Ananda Food / Soul Seed.
Those who enjoy an adult tipple can create a drink from the bar cart, choosing from the range of complimentary mixers to make up something yummy using spirits produced locally by New Norfolk Distillery using seeds from Hemp Harvests.
After enjoying cocktail hour watching the sun set over the D'Entrecasteaux Channel, with brightly coloured parrots swooping through the newly planted native gardens all heavily mulched with locally processed hemp straw, guests can run themselves a bath in the deep soaking tub, getting squeaky clean using the range of gorgeous handmade products from the Margaret River Hemp Co, before sleeping comfortably on luxurious handmade A.H. Beard mattresses dressed in utterly divine Eva Home hemp bed linen.
