This place was ideal in all aspects. Kim & Barry provided everything we needed to make us feel right at home wrt cooking utensils, condiments, etc. Additionally, everything within the house was well labeled and clear instructions were provided for all appliances. The location is also ideal with walking/cycling paths at your doorstep & Main Street of Port Elliot just a 5 minutes walk away. From here there is easy access to everything the Peninsula has to offer, such as Victor Harbour, Encounter Bay, etc. Definitely worth staying here & we would readily stay with Kim & Barry again. Thanks for providing us with such a lovely holiday home!

The Esplanade - Luxuriously Styled New 3 Bed Apt

4.97 out of 5 average rating, 97 reviews2 weeks ago

We had an amazing stay! The property is absolutely beachfront – you step right out onto the sand, and the view is incredible. One of the coolest things was that you can actually drive your car on the beach, which made unloading and setting up super convenient. The house itself was clean and tidy, with everything well-maintained. It’s very family-friendly, with lots of kids’ toys that kept the little ones entertained for hours. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and definitely worth the money. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing beach getaway!

An absolutely beautiful home with everything you need in it. The bedding and furnishing felt very lux and there was plenty of everything. We went as 6 friends for a girls weekend and barely left the house as it was so great! Claire was very easy to work with and was so understanding when I made a mistake with the booking and was more than happy to work with me to rectify it. Would highly recommend a stay at Claire’s house.

2BR Saltair Cottage, Port Willunga

4.91 out of 5 average rating, 23 reviews1 week ago

Poppy's place was a simple small home on a nice bush lot and was super quiet. It was a 1 min walk to the beach and great path to the cafe and swim spot. 2 couples stayed there and were really comfortable. Poppy was proactive with her communication and really flexible when our travel plans got a bit complicated. Overall a great place, and good value for money.
