Located in Penneshaw, 29 km from Christmas Cove Marina, CABN Kangaroo Island provides accommodation with a private beach area, free private parking, a terrace and barbecue facilities. Each accommodation at the 5-star hotel has sea views, and guests can enjoy access to a sauna. Each room includes a balcony. CABN is a very special place! We absolutely loved our two-night stay. The location is quiet and a bit remote, which we loved. There are only five or six cabins on the property, and they are very spread out, so you have a lot of privacy. The views are amazing, the wildlife plentiful, and the cabin is very well thought out with lovely touches. We made sure to come back to the cabin well before sunset after exploring the amazing island, just to make sure we had plenty of time to enjoy the cabin, the surroundings, and once the sun started getting lower on the horizon, take in the views from the deck with the many kangaroos and wallabies who came right around the cabin. We also absolutely loved having the sauna with the picture window, and used it both nights. And, the night sky is truly amazing with absolutely no light pollution. All in all, a very special and memorable stay. Highly recommended.

Providing garden views, Jalilla Village in Kingscote provides accommodation, a garden and barbecue facilities. This property offers access to a balcony, free private parking and free WiFi. Guests can access the apartment via private entrance. We were so excited to stay at this property for 6 nights... then the KI ferry changed our itinerary last-minute and cut a day off of our trip. Linda was an absolute godsend when we reached out to modify our reservation; she was understanding, responsive, and helped us rearrange the details of our stay to accommodate our new schedule. Throughout our stay, she helped keep the property in working order and kindly checked in on us. The apartment itself was clean, very well-equipped (especially the kitchen and laundry facilities!) and nicely sized for a family of 4. We were very comfortable using it as our home-base; we were never more than an hour and a half away from any part of the island. We'd highly recommend for a KI stay!

Located in Kingscote, Inna Nutshell offers accommodation with air conditioning and access to a garden. There is a private entrance at the holiday home for the convenience of those who stay. The holiday home also provides free WiFi, free private parking and facilities for disabled guests. Fantastic location, right in the heart of town; minutes from restaurants and the wonderful salt water pool (great for an early morning dip). Inna Nutshell is extremely well equipped, but as the host says lacks views, but who cares when the accommodation is so lovely and comfortable - bedrooms, kitchen, TV, coffee machine etc etc. Really clean too. Would recommend without doubt.
