Aldinga Beach House: Relax by the sea

AlisonRating, 5 stars1 day ago
We had a wonderful time at this really special place. Having the aldinga scrub across the road with daily visits from the kangaroos was lovely. So much to do and very close to Aldinga Beach. Two nights was not enough. Thanks for having us.

Beautiful place to stay, plenty of things for our girls to do. Would be great to return with our friends and their children as the place was big enough. Could have easily spent a whole week here. Peter was a fantastic host and gave us excellent instructions and local suggestions. We will be back

Managers Cottage at the Gasworks Strathalbyn

SteveRating, 5 stars9 months ago
Lovely character cottage set in beautiful grounds. Our dog was settled here. Heather meeting us and showing us around on arrival, plus the provisions left, were nice touches. It was good to be able to walk our dog (on the lead) in the gardens. Enjoyed being close to the town centre and historic High Street. Graham’s local knowledge was very useful.

Captains Quarters Goolwa

GinnyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Loved this cottage - was homely, clean and pretty. We especially liked the space (well utilised for a couple or a family) and location. It has a nice energy to it and well positioned for easy walking to the Wharf and main street for food, drinks and shopping. Bed was comfy, the kitchen was light and had everything you need for a comfortable stay. Bonus bottle of red wine was appreciated, and we used the Simpsons arcade game upstairs. Would be great for a multi generational stay for kids and parents. Internet is a bit patchy in the area, but that's just something to take into consideration. There are a few tv's to use which are smart hubs, so you can stream movies if you need to. Would happily stay again, hopefully next time for a longer period of time. The local thai restaurant on the main street was delicious, and there are lots of pubs and cafes to cater for all tastes. Communication with hosts was friendly but not intrusive. Highly recommend this property.

Uneek Coastal Living, Pet friendly, Netflix,Wi-Fi

TraeRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Perfect home away from home. The moment we walked in the door, we knew we could relax and enjoy our stay. The beautiful aroma, immaculately clean surroundings and tasteful hand picked decor welcomed us warmly. I was travelling with my 87 year old mother who had lived in the area 10 years prior. This was a pilgrimage, a fondly remembered life. This trip was important. To arrive at a ‘home’ where our wonderful host had tastefully catered for my mums age (appropriate railing and level floors), left chocolates, notes, dvds, an easy to use BBQ, washing machine, dryer, etc. was just above and beyond. Even if the weather had trapped us indoors, Stephanie’s home would have been a delight to be sequestered in. Outstanding. Quiet and very peaceful. We both slept very well. Cleanliness, aroma and lovingly decorated accommodation on holiday are extremely important to me. They must be of the standard of my own home or why bother wasting money. Stephanie’s house ticked all those boxes. Thank you.

Gallery Resort Style Penthouse no 13

JulieRating, 5 stars3 months ago
The penthouse apartment was spacious and in a great location. Parking, lift access and the amenities were all excellent. The main bedroom is huge and would benefit from a queen size bed for comfort given the room is so large. The huge lounge allowed us to spread out as a family and the kitchen was well equipped with lots of crockery for a family staying. We were only staying for a couple of days but if we were staying longer we'd have appreciated WIFI for our stay. The games, puzzles and DVDs kept us entertained. The location is amazing.
An open-plan living area is seen through large bi-fold doors, connecting to a spacious outdoor deck. Comfortable seating is arranged in the lounge, complemented by a view of the dining space. Natural light floods the area, contributing to a bright and airy atmosphere.
