Kangaroo Island cottage, walk to the beach
A lovely rustic place close to everything you would need to enjoy Kangaroo Island. We loved the beach front and the character of the cottage. The best part was the enclosed courtyard, which was the selling point upon booking and didn’t disappoint. We brought 3 small dogs with us and left them in the courtyard whilst exploring the island for a whole day and it was the best set up for us!. Although the cottage was very no frills, it still felt very comfortable and relaxing.

Authenticity Beach House Island Beach KI
We had a great time - we are a family of 4 with two daughters (6 and 3 yo). Location and views are awesome. Super easy to get to shops back in Penneshaw and a short drive to some great wineries and restaurants suitable for families. The house had everything you could need and was very comfortable. We would highly recommend to others

This place was even better than the photos, super clean, stylish, and in a perfect location. Loved the little touches like fresh coffee and local recommendations, it really made the stay special.

The ‘Cape House’ Spectacular Ocean Views to KI.
Lots of the previous reviews speak about the very pleasant accomodation and the outstanding cliff-top views - which we fully endorse too. It's just great! What we'd like to add (it was important for us) is the tranquility of the place, with nothing to disturb the absolute sense of peace, quiet and privacy - other than the local birdlife! Highly special. Thanks Nicole!

4 Bedroom 2 bath Ducted Aircon Pets ok Kingscote
What a gem! This cute Victorian cottage is modern and comfortable inside. We loved the location as Brownlow is close to the Kingscote shops and restaurants yet on a quiet typical inner beach; weedy but great for dog walking. Lovely hosts, Sabine and Kevin. Thanks.

Emu Bay Bliss: Ocean-view 5 bedroom holiday home
Fantastic views and lots of space to spend out with multi generational family. Accessible beach and pier for fishing - we caught our dinner one night. Fun to watch the 3 resident Koalas in trees across the street and local kangaroos in surrounding yards.

Pisces - Seaside serenity
Plenty of space in this house - large bedrooms and tv in main room. Missed not having electric blankets or a dishwasher but the house stay warm enough with the heater in the ceiling of the main room. Interesting how both the main bathroom and ensuite were at the same end of the house. A secure backyard if we had taken our dogs with us. No beach view but lovely to see/hear a variety of birds.

Ocean Blue KI
Fantastic house well equipped with everything needed for a week long stay. Clean and comfortable with lots of helpful extras like a Weber, kids toys, cot, kitchen wares etc. Would recommend staying here!

Our third stay at Doyle's, and each time it feels like a home away from home. Beautiful surroundings, peaceful bush noises, modern amenities - this place has it all! So much space and plenty for everyone to do! The Starlink internet is SUPERFAST!! Thanks for that upgrade lol Special mention to Craig and Rachael, the wonderful custodians. They always go above and beyond to make sure we have everything we need. This time they wrote a beautiful card for us that really touched our hearts! ❤️❤️❤️

Saltbush Farm Luxury house with Ocean views
What an incredible getaway at Gabi and Jim’s accommodation! This place was worth every single penny and my group had the most wonderful stay. It felt luxurious from the first moment we pulled up to the property. The photos do not do this location justice. The house was spacious, it had every single possible amenity we could need, the kitchen was big, the bedrooms were comfortable, the outdoor space was fabulous to relax in. The pool was a winner though, heated, an incredible view at sunset, watching kangaroos hop by. We really couldn’t have stayed at a better place, it was such a lovely treat. Thank you for such a relaxing weekend, it won’t be forgotten and I would absolutely stay again.

Villa 2 South Shores - sea & country in one spot
Great location within the resort being private but not far from pool. Easy walk along the beach to Normanville.

excellent stay ideally location for the ferry and nearby restaurant and shop. the host quick to respond to messages and clarified detail as I'm disabled and it was important to understand what the access to the property would be like. thanks for a great stay stay we would definitely stay again p

Marine Cottage Stunning sea views
Marine Cottage was perfect. The view was spectacular with the beach directly in front. The house had everything we needed, was extremely clean and had personal touches like fresh eggs and water. The location is excellent for exploring the island. We walked and swam at the beach everyday. We will be back next year. Thanks Peter and Jo.

Great location with a fantastic view. Could do with a few upgrades but overall I would have no issues coming back again. Both host excellent service and always answered my questions. The view is the best on the island in my opinion.

Off-grid Beachfront Cabin on Kangaroo Island
If you’re thinking of booking this place—do it. It’s everything you hope a tiny cabin by the sea will be, and then some. Waking up to that ocean view felt like living inside a postcard, and every little detail in the house was thoughtful and cozy without being overdone. There’s something really special about this spot. You can tell it was made with care. Thanks for an unforgettable stay. We didn’t want to leave (but we did, because society). Hope we can come back soon!

Magnolia - NEW Hampton style holiday home
Great location overlooking the ocean. Home is well designed with windows taking advantage of light and views. Kitchen well stocked with everything one could need. Two bathrooms and two lounge areas made it a very enjoyable stay. Would love to stay again sometime. Thank you Christine.

Salt Kangaroo Island - beach and sea views
We had a lovely stay at Salt , Crystal was easy to contact and responsive if required . The accommodation was perfect it had everything needed to have a relaxing stay . The only downside was the work being carried out on the ferry terminal , it could be a bit noisy at night . Hopefully it will be completed soon and stillness will resume . That being said it did not really affect our holiday and I would highly recommend Salt and look forward to returning .

Shylie's Retreat
Our experience at Shylies was outstanding, and we are already looking forward to our next visit, which is a reflection of the high quality of the accommodation. Located in close proximity to the ferry port, the property is easily accessible, and upon arrival, we were impressed by the peaceful and secluded surroundings. The accommodation exceeded our expectations in every way, and we particularly enjoyed relaxing on the deck with a bottle of wine, observing the local wildlife, and even spotting a few kangaroos. The property is exceptionally well-appointed and maintained, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and the bed linen was of exceptional quality. A highlight of our stay was the stunning private beach, accessible via a short walk from the property, which we enjoyed visiting every evening. We would like to thank Kate and Andy for accommodating us at short notice, and we look forward to returning soon.
