Amazing location for relaxation

We absolutely loved our stay. We winky wish we had more time to enjoy such a beautiful home. The perfect place to stay with family, the kids have plenty of room to play and the entertaining areas on both sides of the home are perfect for enjoying KI with a title of freshly bought wine and local produce. Our highlight was also dinner at The Shed! Such a great community.

Wonderful stay in KI

We had a very comfortable stay. The property is so big and equipped with all we need. The only thing is Kangaroo Island doesnt have a good internet coverage all throughout the island so was a bit challenging communicating with the property manager. Otherwise, the whole KI experience was great! The beaches are crystal clear beautiful.
