"We felt at home in this beautiful place, it was a a short stroll to the beach and high is perfect for anyone especially little ones.

The bath is delightful and after a beach visit it was the perfect place to relax. This is a the perfect place for a family with a big outdoor dining table, books and toys and super cute beds. The washing machine was a bonus. We would...

The Kona - coastal seclusion on Kangaroo Island

9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (14)
"Don’t stay here if you’re expecting some shops around the corner. It’s 23 kilometres from the nearest town, but that’s the good thing about it. Out on a sheep station but with fabulous views over Backstairs Passage, a well equipped kitchen to cook in and a great outdoor deck area. An amble through the fields to a couple of completely private beaches. Swallows nesting in the garage. And yes there is a washing machine"

"A good holiday lodge great for family with kids. The lodge has all the facilities we need. 200 meters walk to the island beach, very exclusive and private. Only recommendation is the lodge needs an thorough insect spray as my boy got many red dots on his face after the first night of stay probably due to insect."

Haven Beach - Island

9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (16)
"Property was in a great location. Island beach is so beautiful. Very well equipped and the slow cooker was a bonus. Overall nice and clean, although there were empty bottles and cans all over the fish cleaning sink which we couldnt use. This was cleaned up however at the end of our trip. Beds were a bit firm for my liking but clean and warm. Had some visits by local kangaroos, wallabies and the beautiful birds on KI and also some local chooks! A bit of a hick up when we arrived to locked doors...
