Lovely house, great location.

The house is beautifully decorated and generously furnished. Great views and a walk up the road to the pub and shops. Enough seating space for everyone. 1 bath towel per person was adequate- it would have been nice to have 2 each, for a stay of 6 nights. We enjoyed using the kitchen- a nice house to relax into in the evening. We had a couple of queries and a prompt response from the property manager was reassuring. Would recommend this property.

Terrific location opposite beach , comfortable walk to town/shops. Very comfortable home, extremely well equipped kitchen, ample parking and security. Excellent property management and very accurate description. Good value and ideal for family or two couples travelling and wanting to explore all that is available on Kangaroo Island

Perfect family stay

Value for money for a great location, for families, with everything you need for stay in Kangaroo Island. It was the little things we appreciated when away from home at a beach location, having a supply of washing powder already there was fab. Communication was great, booking process etc, would have liked some instructions for using the TV though.

Marathon stay

Lovely spot, big back lawn for children to play on but was not mowed unfortunately. Comfortable house, didn’t look much on outside but was surprisingly good inside. Great for large family group with little children.

Good For the Price But Needs Work

The view from the property was lovely and the walkway along the beach good. Cleanliness was very good although the property is old and needs some maintenance. Kitchen was well equipped. There was mould on the ceiling of the bathroom and the vinyl floors needed a wash. There was a really bad smell outside the back door like dead fish.

Great location to explore the island, the beds were too hard for our liking but the rest was great

Kangaroo Is is a beautiful destination, Emu Bay has beautiful beaches just 15min from accommodation. Recommend the fishing charter with Sean (Emu Bay Fishing Charter). House location is great as a base to explore the island and close to amenities. Pleasant house with all you need but the beds were hard.

A great base for a KI holiday

This home is in a gorgeous location, walking distance to town, fabulous view, and very well appointed. However, we holidayed in winter, and when we arrived the house was icy, and took quite a while to warm up. We would have appreciated the heater being on for a while to welcome us. It would be a superb location for a summer holiday.
