Great location...older home.
The house is very large and was great for our group of five adults. The jacuzzi tub in the master was not working but I'm not sure it was listed. The showers were a bit yucky (moldy?) on the edges. There was no detergent for the washer or dishwasher, or pods for the Nespresso (which was moldy and needed for us to give a deep clean before we could use it). I contacted the owner and supplies were brought the next day, which was great, although we had gone and bought some things we needed the first day ourselves. Being at the ocean was wonderful for evening strolls, star gazing and sunrises. It was great to have a large garage to pull into for shelter from the sun and unloading and loading. I would say the home needs a little more TLC than it is getting. With that said, we enjoyed the space and had a fabulous time on KI.

Amazing view, beautiful house, very well equipt, lovely location. We were two families of a total 10 pax and the house was perfect for such a large group. Only point to raise is the proximity to the neighbors. Would love to come back another time. Loved Kangaroo Island.

Arrived at WOW, already with instructions on how to enter. All went smoothly. House was absolutely beautiful and the view spectacular. There was an area with games and books, and toys for kids. It looks to me that the house caters from babies through to aged. It really is a beautiful house with the best view.

Great location, great house, but
The house is lovely, well set out, nicely furnished, big picture windows, spacious and with 3 bathrooms, which is what we needed. Good location, near Kingscote, and right on the beach. Information for the house was hidden in the pantry, hand written instructions taped to the wall. A compendium on the kitchen bench would have been more professional and easier to find. I was disappointed to find that I could not use the spa, as it had a note on it saying that it leaks. The bbq area is on the side of the house, which feels quite disjointed, I guess for shelter, with adequate outdoor furniture. More outdoor chairs were stored in the garage. Unfortunately the outdoor furniture setting in the main kitchen/dining/living area was appalling. The table was worn and rusted, the chairs worn, ripped, dirty, encrusted with bird droppings. Totally unusable. The lawn was not cut, and our uncut grass was a stark contrast to the neatly cut grass of the neighbours. There was a considerable amount of weeds around the house both back and front in the pavers. Directions and signage could be improved as we had difficulty finding a lot number instead of a house number.

Family visit to KI
This property was an excellent choice for our 3-generation family group of 7 adults plus 2 children. Everything we needed was there. The website could use a little updating, particularly in relation to getting there - the property signage is only visible if coming from Brownlow direction rather than from Kingscote. Communication was good, augmented by many hand-written notes inside. we all enjoyed our stay

Location is great, house is huge with separate lounge areas and loads of bedrooms. Great view and super quiet location. Outside area could be tidied up for more practical use on the beach side but overall it is a well appointed house for use all year round and right on the coast of Kingscote! Would definitely go back. Thank you.
