Fantastic family accommodation

Everything was absolutely wonderful at our accommodation. We only had one issue with the bottom tv not having "free to air" channels. Was hard for the "oldies" to get upstairs to watch the nightly news

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.

Family Holiday in 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.

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

Huge house and really well set up in a great location

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.
