We had a wonderful vacation. Such a natural beautiful location, amazing views and wildlife. Highlight was penguin finding at night along the beach. It was just the break we needed from our hectic lifestyles. The holiday home was fantastic, everything we needed was there and it was extremely clean and felt like you were in your own home. Herb and Janette were fantastic, great communication and friendly. Made our holiday very memorable. We look forward to visiting and staying at Emu Bay again.

We loved our stay at Sam’s place. Island Beach is absolutely stunning, so peaceful and quiet and private, but close enough to Penneshaw and activities to keep us amused. Authenticity Beachhouse was so well situated, with great sea views, and had heaps of space and amenities perfect for our family of four…with an extra room to spare. Sam has thought of everything, and we loved all of the little extras he provided that helped make our holiday more fun - boogie boards, snorkel equipment, beach chairs and tent, lots of outdoor and indoor seating, plus the Hamptons style decor was so lovely. Thanks for a really lovely stay Sam. Our kids have already asked when we are coming back to visit again!

Kevin was a wonderful, responsive host who made us feel very welcome in his home. I would highly recommend a stay at White Shells to anyone seeking a memorable family holiday.

If you were looking for an exceptional and remote getaway filled with wildlife and a little adventure look no further

Very well designed living space with excellent facilities makes this a wonderful place to stay for as many days as you can manage. Helpful and rapid communication from Jayne, who is an active volunteer for a variety of local activities and therefore very knowledgeable and happy to share her justifiable enthusiasm for the island. The little museum in the old school nearby is well worth an hour of your time. Pristine swimming beach (it's shallow for a long way out) on your doorstep for those pre-breakfast dips. At the time of writing, work is taking place improving the ferry terminal, but doesn't much interfere with the peace and quiet. Large cruise ships are frequent visitors for 1 day. Highly recommended.

Absolutely stunning location. The house was a little dated and in need of some repair (still comfortable), however the location and views are incredible. Julie was very thorough in her suggestions for things to see and do. Her communication was excellent.

Our family group of 15 - grandparents, children and grandchildren had the most delightful time in this spacious, beautifully appointed and presented, conjoined houses overlooking Snellings Beach. We had the space to relax without feeling like we were on top of each other. We couldn't fault the place. Melanie, our host was responsive to our queries and pointed us in the direction of great places and activities to pursue. She was very generous in providing essentials in the kitchen, bathroom and laundry. Thank you, Melanie. We will be recommending Middle Beach House to our friends and look forward to our next visit.

We loved staying here with our two young children. The pool and spa are wonderful and the inside space is great. We loved playing the old school board games. We’d love to stay again next time we go to Carrickalinga.

Great house for a group of people. Bedrooms were a good size, big fenced yard to play in and a very equipped kitchen. Having to bring linen is a bit of a pain but otherwise a great house. Beautiful location, we saw kangaroos and echidnas from the balcony. We would book again.

Such an beautifully maintained property, the little extras were much appreciated. Bedding was very comfortable and Narelle was friendly, responsive and accommodating. We had a lovely stay, thank you Narelle.

We had a lovely few days at Villa 66! The accomodation was clean, spacious, had all the facilities we required, and more! The host was friendly and responsive. The kids are looking forward to returning soon.

House was beautiful, super clean and felt very homey. Had everything we needed and was super close to the beach. Marnie was great to communicate with.

We had a wonderful stay! Spacious and great location with good facilities for the kids, including pool and playground and plenty of open space for running, playing and scooting

Beautiful villa with lots of space for a joint family holiday. Great games room for the kids with extra futon beds. Big open deck and open plan lounge and kitchen area with lots of natural light. Onsite pool is fantastic and heated. Nice natural grounds and surroundings. Short walk 1.2km along beach to Normanville. Would definitely stay again.

Our family of 5 had a wonderful stay at Cara. The house was a lovely comfortable space, and had everything we needed plus more, including table tennis table, beach gear, bikes, games, dvds... Amenities were great, exactly as described. The air con worked very well on the super hot days, and at night we opened the windows for a nice breeze. We could hear the ocean at night. The location is perfect, an easy walk to the beach. Also a short drive to the shops in Normanville or Yankalilla, and Normanville is also a good walk along the beach. We also walked to the pizza place Side Hustle, but had to book the pizzas in the morning as they sell out early! James and Kate were excellent hosts, and provided clear and helpful information. Highly recommend.

Eva's place was nice and modern. The selection of amenities was nice and the location is very convenient to walk around the town of Kingscote.

We loved our stay at Liam’s place! The location was perfect, just a short walk to a stunning and family-friendly beach. The house was great for our young family, with a large well equipped kitchen and a lovely outdoor deck. We enjoyed the beautiful natural surroundings and daily visits from wallabies, which the kids loved. Liam was very responsive, friendly and helpful with recommendations. Overall, it was a fantastic experience. We highly recommend the „Cheeky Wren“ and are already planning our next visit to Kangaroo Island.

The guys enjoyed their stay here... the placed is as described although I believe the view was understated - amazing was the word used. Thanks you so much!

what a beautiful house, and an amazing way to end the year. The house is very well priced for its size and the beautiful town it’s in!

Our family of six adults and two children had a wonderful week in Copperstone in early December 2024. The house is modern, clean and comfortable and has air conditioning, which is needed, especially in the warmer months. The kitchen is well appointed, and the beds are comfortable. We were privileged to experience Kangaroos in the front garden and Koalas in the back garden. As there are no places to purchase provisions in Emu Bay, we would have appreciated a welcome package/gift to include the basic necessities including bread, cereal etc. The nearest supermarket is Drakes in Kingscote, where you can purchase general groceries, meat, poultry, fruit and vegetables. There is a well-stocked bottle-shop in the next street. These facilities are approximately 15 minutes by car (4 wheel recommended) from the house. I recommend this property which overlooks beautiful Emu Bay and is well located. We left feeling that we all had a unique experience and were rejuvenated.

Easy to check in, very friendly communication, the location is really peaceful and close to the beach. House is clean and tidy as what in the description. Worth the value and will highly recommended to anyone who wants to visit KI.

We had the most wonderful stay at Melissa's beach shack in Carrickalinga. The house was wonderful for two families, well-equipped, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The location was absolutely perfect—just a short stroll to one of South Australia's most stunning beaches. Melissa was a fantastic host, with great communication and thoughtful touches that made our stay even more enjoyable. We can’t wait to return and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a beach escape!
