We had the most wonderful few days on Kangaroo Island. Wahroonga on the Water was our base. Waking to the most beautiful sunrises, and being so close to the beach was a highlight. The house has everything in it that you would need, with the exception of food. Lots of space for just 4 adults to enjoy. Thank you
Home was spacious and well located. Host was very responsive to correspondence. House requires a thorough spider inspection and associated clean, as per concerns reported to host during our stay.
Great Stay, No IssuesWe had a really comfortable stay at this house. The place was exactly as pictured, clean, well-maintained and easy to check into. Everything worked as it should and there were no problems at all during our stay.
It was great for our large family to stay together in a house that fitted us all. The house was spacious and allowed everyone to be comfortable. Being right near the beach and walking pathways just added to our stay.
Amazing place and cant wait to come back to bring my family to stay. It is also a great location for a great part of KI

Disliked: Cleanliness
Spa not in use but would not have used it anyway. The Kitchen utensils and draws were dirty, the Dishwasher was still full of previous occupants dishes and cupboards and drawers were cluttered and untidy. We cleaned and tidied the above on arrival. The outdoor setting was filthy we also had to clean before using. Overall the house needs a bit of TLC. I did contact the host and was told this was not part of the cleaners responsibilities.
Stayed with friends and the property had everything we needed for a short stay, only a walk into Kingscote and being located on the water it made for a relaxing stay. Highly recommend.
Great water front location a nice walk (under 30 mins) into town and to/along the beach. Big house, well equipped. Great layout for a big group. We were all adukts butwould suit a mix too. BYO food staples though, limited supply of coffee, tea, milk etc.
