Great place to stay. Well equipped. Just a minute's walk to the waterside to watch the lovely seabirds. Wish we could've stayed longer. Minor issues with check-in/hotels.com messages but soon sorted with a phone call.

Clean room, friendly staff, nice atmosphere. Couch was pretty worn and the internet connection didn’t work, but that was probably due to the storm damaging the starlink antenna. A nice place to un-plug, but you’ll need a car as there’s very little nearby.

Tidy and spacious studio unit accommodation equipped with clean and functional kitchen utensils and Nespresso coffee machine; simple and contactless check-in and check-out procedures but with clear instructions and guidance by the host; property and surrounding area is altogether a peaceful and quiet getaway; I highly recommend this place as a tranquil retreat on the beautiful Kangaroo Island if peace and quiet is what you require with your accommodation!

Clean spacious property. Comfy beds. No hob or oven for cooking but plug in options provided. No grocers near by so make sure you bring all food needed. Beautiful setting next to the shore. Several places to eat near by, but watch closing times- especially on a Sunday. We enjoyed morning coffee at the roadside coffee truck and got close up to the pelicans. Communal laundry area and a fuel pump for your car nearby if you need them.

Quiet hideaway

The venue was both comfortable and quiet. It suited our needs for the three nights we stayed there. The location was a little remote with a 30 minute drive to most facilities and meals, although it was late in the season and hadn't appreciated the distances involved in touring Kangaroo Island. An ideal location for a relaxed holiday and close enough to the airport and larger town for travel and services.

The villa was spacious and enjoyed breakfast on the deck. The Queen bed was comfortable, however, there was very little water pressure in the shower and kitchen sink. It was very quiet as the villa was in the bushland. The villa's are more like cabins. The staff were very helpful and friendly. We enjoyed our 5 night stay.

Not where I would return to stay. The reception was hard to find. Couldn't get through their landline , and Kim's mobile was never been answered, just texted back after a while. Not responsive to their customers. We booked two cabins. One wasn't ready while we arrived. One cook stove, one external cooking pan, and outdoor bbq were not working. The facilities are pretty run down. Need a good improvement on both services and facilities.
