Do not hesitate to book Snellings View! Our stay was wonderful in every way. Beautiful and comfortable home with all the amenities needed. It was a great base for our family during our KI explorations and we hope to return one day!
Absolutely stunning Property. We really enjoyed our stay. My only feedback is the single bed in the main room was not that suitable for an adult. Thankfully the couch made a better alternative. Fantastically comfortable.Otherwise everything was absolutely perfect great facilities. Decor was beautiful.
As always the stay was wonderful, fantastic communication from the host, beautiful house, stunning view, great amenities and it’s the little touches here that keep us coming back too!
We loved every moment at Snelling View! Sitting on the deck watching the waves was so relaxing. The house had stunning views, great amenities, and a calm vibe — perfect for a family getaway.
Incredible stay at Snelling’s! Views were incredible and peaceful. The home is as pictured with updated, lovely furnishings. The host provided all the basics including beach chairs, towels and a wagon! The home is secluded so go prepared with food and drink. Everything was perfect!
So good we didn’t want to leave!And good location to explore the north and western areas of KI.And so close to The Fig Tree - amazing restaurant directly below us!
We had a fantastic stay in the beautiful well-kept house. The view was incredibly beautiful and it was a pleasure to see the kangaroos that come to eat near het house. We had a wonderful and relaxing stay!
Fantastic facility, everything you could possibly want and need was available. Beautiful house with spectacular views. Wish we could have stayed longer.
Incredible views and a warm, comfortable space made this property a perfect island retreat. The gas fire was a cozy touch, and the place was very well-resourced with everything we needed. We loved coming back after a day of exploring. Would definitely recommend and hope to return one day!

About the host
Hosted by Nan
As Childhood friends Jenny and I had shared many wonderful holidays together with our families, adventuring to wonderful destinations around Australia. We were forever on the hunt for the ideal accommodation for two families of three and four children respectively, and this was always a challenge. We needed space to share together as well as needing space to be quiet and calm as separate families.
We had enjoyed many wonderful Kangaroo Island holidays together and voted Snelling Beach as our top spot. Ten years after our last trip we revisited K.I. and found the land atop Constitution Hill overlooking Snelling Beach was for sale. On a whim and a prayer we decided to form a partnership and build what we had always wanted to find on our combined family holidays, and Snellings View is the result.
Why they chose this property
Snellings View is a beautifully appointed beach house that consists of 2 separate 2-bedroom homes (view layout map) connected by a central reception-style entrance.
The East Wing and the West Wing can be rented individually for 2 to 6 people, or together for up to 12 people. Each luxurious wing contains a queen size master bedroom with ensuite and a second bedroom with queen size bed plus a single bed with a trundle (converts to Queen bed). The trundle option is mobile and can be moved to create the best configuration for your group. The second bedroom also has a private ensuite.
Each wing is best suited for a couple, 2 singles who need their own room or 2 couples who each want private facilities. Each wing can also accommodate a family with 2 adults and 2 children sharing a room, or a family with up to 4 children.
Two families, larger groups or a group with private room requirements will require both homes. We encourage you to contact us to discuss bedding configuration so that you can make the most of your time and budget.
What makes this property unique
The layout is perfectly suited to any one. From group family holidays, a get away for just the 2 of you or ideal as a destination for 2 couples. The building is architecturally designed to maximize privacy, to capture natural light and to benefit from the temperate sea breeze.
Snellings is a family sanctuary. Our families love to spend days swimming or fishing in crystal clear aquamarine waters. We savor dining on fresh produce on the spacious balcony or in our private outdoor entertainment BBQ area. We explore Kangaroo Island’s myriad of wonderful attractions from protected conservation parks and caves, to Birds of Prey exhibitions, being entertained by the Sea Lions or the seals, or being mesmerized by the starry nights unspoilt by the any light pollution and watching the sun rise over the ocean are just a few ways we while away our Kangaroo Island sojourn. Plus lazy days just sitting and watching the grass grow or the eagles soar!
It is our pleasure to share our slice of paradise with our guests.
