The property was great. Homely and had everything we needed for a relaxing holiday. One issue was the internet/tv remote/access to pay per view tv. The manager came quickly to try and sort out but it became frustrating to try and use so we reverted to free tv. Mould in shower may become a future issue. But we would happily stay again and promote to others.

We stayed at the property for 3 nights with kids and it was great. Step out of the property and there’s the Esplanade. The owner had thankfully stocked jam, milk, vegemite, cereals etc as well which was very handy - there was always food when the kids got hungry at odd hours and most places were closed due to Easter long weekend. Highly recommend!

Enjoyed a 3 night stay at this property. Found the property immaculately clean and tidy, lots of room and very comfortable. Only recommendation I would make is to add some more glasses/tableware as 4 of everything doesn’t last very long before needing to switch a dishwasher on or wash up, but this is a very minor issue and certainly wouldn’t stop me from using the property again.

If I could give six stars I would

If I could give six stars I would, the moment we opened the front door we knew this was going to be the perfect base to explore Kangaroo Island. Firstly the location, right opposite the water and a five minute walk into Kingscote town centre. Secondly the unit itself, immaculately clean and well appointed with a large bathroom, two bedrooms, a functional kitchen and dining area and a nice furnished outdoor area with a clothes line as well as a washing machine. Thirdly the off street parking with a garage. Finally the great homely feel as well as two great hosts. Not only recommended but would not hesitate to stay here again.
