Beach Front. Panoramic Views. Kayaks. Gift Basket.

DaveRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago

Amazing house in the most beautiful location. 2 minutes walk and you're on the beach with pelicans and dolphins with kangaroos in the garden too. The house is stocked with everything you could need. Kangaroo Island is one of my favourites places in the works and this house has to be one of the best on the island.

Cottage in Penneshaw

KOKUMI [rich taste,delicious] cosy coastal cottage

BendixRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

Absolutely loved our stay at KOKUMI! Mark and Leanne have created something truly special. The view is simply breathtaking — one of those places where photos just can’t do it justice. The apartment is incredibly well-equipped with everything you could possibly need, down to the smallest detail. The terrace is an absolute dream — perfect for morning coffee, sunset drinks, or just soaking in the beauty of the surroundings. The absolute highlight? We spotted dolphins right from the terrace — an unforgettable moment that made our stay even more magical. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. Mark and Leanne’s warm hospitality and thoughtful touches made all the difference. Communication was smooth, friendly, and super helpful from start to finish. This place is a gem, and we can’t wait to come back!

"Twin Dolphin Cottage - a haven by the sea"

CaraRating, 5 stars6 days ago

We spent 4 nights at Twin Dolphin Cottage over Easter. It was the perfect accommodation for our family of 4. The outside deck and gardens are beautiful. Was lovely to hear birds chirping and relax in the peaceful surrounds. The kids loved their room with the bunks. The master bedroom was lovely and very spacious, although we did find the mattress too thin and hard for our liking. The cottage is very homely with books, board games and some toys for the kids. The kitchen is really well appointed and we appreciated the welcome basket and local honey. Margi (Joan) was very responsive to messages and the instructions for check-in and checkout were very clear. The location is fantastic! We loved being able to walk to the beach. Would definitely recommend a stay here, and we hope to return ourselves.

Home in Cape Jervis

Sorrento on Sorata! 'Breath Taking Views'

BarbaraRating, 5 stars3 months ago

We had a lovely time in Cape Jervis. The house, location and view are great. It is the ideal location for a day trip to Kangaroo Island, the ferry terminal is only minutes away so that it is easy to catch the earliest and latest ferries of the day. One thing to remember is that Cape Jervis itself is only a small village and Victor Harbor where all the restaurants and tourism offers are, is about 45 minutes-drive away. The absolute highlight are the kangaroos assembling across the road in the early morning and evening.

Bramblewick Cottage. Beautiful 2-bedroom stay

JayneRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

I don’t think there would be a better place to stay on Kangaroo Island. Vicky’s place is like coming to a farm stay retreat . The sunsets from the decking were spectacular and we loved the friendly farm animals that surrounded the property. Spacious, spotlessly clean and views from every window. So easy to access all the amazing sights and venues on the island. Though we were tempted just to stay on the decking and enjoy the peace and serenity of this wonderful holiday home . We will definitely be recommending to our friends and family and next time we will stay longer.

Great second floor apartment in Kingscote with a beautiful balcony view of the ocean and wharf area. The apartment is well-appointed with comfy bedding, plush towels, and fully equipped kitchen. I am a swimmer so enjoyed the public tidal pool just down the street. Lots of restaurants, although most stop serving at 8 pm. Rachel was a wonderful host, always immediately responsive. I asked her for a 3-day itinerary and she came up with the perfect itinerary based on my interests.

NoelRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Amazing cosy holiday rental right next to the most amazing beach. People actually park their vehicles on this beach, who needs a beach box. The unit was fully equipped and well supplied. At times the unit was tight in the bedroom loft, however it was cosy and the rest of the place and location made up for it. The host was very responsive and friendly. I would highly recommend it for a couple’s weekend away or short stay. Superb.
