Authenticity Beach House Island Beach KI

RoseRating, 5 stars1 month ago
What a lovely beach house, you feel at home straight away. Kitchen well equipped, large deck for relaxing. Private and peaceful, only a couple minutes walk the beach. If you get up early enough you will be treated to beautiful sunrises whilst sipping your morning coffee. You might even get a visit from a kangaroo or two. A number of choices to stay at KI but we definitely picked the right one!

The ‘Cape House’ Spectacular Ocean Views to KI.

StuartRating, 5 stars2 months ago
This is truly an amazing escape - no neighbours, no noise, just a beautiful home in a serene location. The sunsets are PERFECT, wildlife and if you are lucky go to the beach in the morning and watch the dolphins only a few metres from shore. If you want the escape to recharge and relax this is it.
A charming stone pathway leads to a welcoming entrance, framed by vibrant purple flowers. A small dog stands at the open door, which invites guests inside to explore the home.

4 Bedroom 2 bath Ducted Aircon Pets ok Kingscote

MichelleRating, 5 stars3 months ago
What a gem! This cute Victorian cottage is modern and comfortable inside. We loved the location as Brownlow is close to the Kingscote shops and restaurants yet on a quiet typical inner beach; weedy but great for dog walking. Lovely hosts, Sabine and Kevin. Thanks.
A spacious kitchen features a large island with a white countertop and wooden bar stools. Decorative pendant lights hang above, adding warmth. The kitchen is equipped with modern appliances and offers views of the ocean through large windows in the background.

Fantastic views and lots of space to spend out with multi generational family. Accessible beach and pier for fishing - we caught our dinner one night. Fun to watch the 3 resident Koalas in trees across the street and local kangaroos in surrounding yards.
A scenic view from a balcony showcases the tranquil ocean, punctuated by a distant jetty extending into the water. A clear blue sky with scattered clouds complements the landscape, while greenery frames the foreground, contributing to the serene coastal atmosphere.

Marion Bay Seaside Apartments - Oceanview no.1

DaynaRating, 5 stars4 months ago
Great spot in great location. Unfortunately there were some civil works being undertaken in the boat ramp car park during our stay which meant it was quite noisey with trucks and diggers from early morning. In saying that would definitely stay again once works are complete!

Hawks Nest the Wing

GordonRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Kirsty and Chris couldn’t be more hospitable. As more mature guests we appreciated Kirsty showing us the best way to access the path and steps down to the private beach. It was worth it to experience the sun setting and watch the resident pelican fishing in the surf. A highlight was the Kangaroos coming up to the terrace every evening to take the food left out. The property is first class. The pool area and the al fresco dining area are welcoming even though it was a little too cool to swim. The property is remote from shops etc but we stocked up beforehand and thus had no issues. We would certainly recommend Hawks Nest.

Our third stay at Doyle's, and each time it feels like a home away from home. Beautiful surroundings, peaceful bush noises, modern amenities - this place has it all! So much space and plenty for everyone to do! The Starlink internet is SUPERFAST!! Thanks for that upgrade lol Special mention to Craig and Rachael, the wonderful custodians. They always go above and beyond to make sure we have everything we need. This time they wrote a beautiful card for us that really touched our hearts! ❤️❤️❤️

We have stayed at Casa Willyama on a number of occasions and have always loved our time there. The house is always well presented and has all the facilities to make the stay comfortable.

WALLABY BEACH HOUSE,KANGAROO ISLAND

JohnRating, 5 stars4 months ago
The absolutely perfect hideaway, exactly as Hugh, the owner, describes. The house is beautifully presented with everything top quality, but also a lot of personal touches, such as ornaments and books. A great bonus was the sheer number of bird species visiting the water dishes - we identified 21 with the help of an excellent guide book which goes with the house. Good shops and decent pub/restaurant in nearby Penneshaw.
An open-plan kitchen and dining area features a large wooden table with six light-colored chairs, complemented by a modern kitchen island with bar stools. Clean white cabinetry and appliances are visible, while natural light streams in from the nearby windows, highlighting the warm wooden flooring.

Rosie's - elegant beach house

LaurenceRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Stayed for seven days and it is a really lovely place with fabulous sea views. The house was well stocked and very comfortable. Emu Bay has no shops, so you need to get everything from Kingscote. No restaurants either so if you want to dine out it will have to be somewhere else. We very much enjoyed our stay in this house making daily trips to all the things to see and experience on the island.

Was a BEAUTIFUL Airbnb, my parents were visiting from London and were blown away by the kangaroos every morning, the empty beach felt like we had our own private access and it’s at a good location, making the commute all around the island approximately 1 hour in any direction.

Beach front living at Emu Bay

AnneRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Lovely beach house - wonderful setting right on the beach. It was amazing to be right in the middle of the penguins nesting site & funny to hear them coming and going. Loads of other wildlife & great places to visit in the island. The house was well stocked, relaxed and comfortable with everything you need for a relaxing beach stay. It was cold at night but very cozy with the log burner. We had a great time, thank you
