About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Koru Cottage is a cosy home nestled in the dunes of beautiful Vivonne Bay on KI.

The perfect central base for experiencing all that Kangaroo Island has to offer, Koru Cottage is a charming, fully self-contained home that is equipped with all the necessities you’ll need for a relaxing seaside holiday.

Just a short drive to Seal Bay, Little Sahara and the Raptor Domain, or pop across the river to exciting adventures at KI Outdoor Action or to play a round of golf on the untamed local golf course...just watch out for the Roos & Echidnas!

Walk the few steps up through the back yard to the white sands and turquoise waters of stunning Vivonne Bay, voted best beach in Australia. Here you can fossick, fish, swim, surf, or just take a relaxing stroll along the pristine beach where all the stresses of everyday life will seem like a distant memory.

In the evenings cook up your catch of the day in the well equipped kitchen (or cheat, and grab one of the local store’s famous Whiting Burgers!) Sit back and enjoy a local wine while watching the native wildlife come to life at dusk and listen to the waves from the beach in your back yard.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Jess was a wonderful owner to deal with and her home was very comfortable and homely. Vivonne Bay was a beautiful quiet little area and central to a number of the big sights of KI. Our only issue was being underprepared for dinner on our first night and not really knowing where to go to get a meal but this wasn’t Jess’ fault at all. Just make sure to be prepared!
