A lovely and quiet place to stay with fantastic views of the sea. Well equipped with everything you need to be self sufficient.
The best thing was the two mother koalas and their joeys in the trees right by the house!

Rene was friendly and provided local knowledge to assist with exploring KI. Accomodation was perfect for our stay and easy to find with the directions provided, especially as we arrived early evening.

A well thought out and laid cabin. View is magnificent and Emu Bay is a very nice area. Kingscote, the main town is only a 15 minute drive.
Lovely stay. Plenty of pre-arrival communications - very important and very useful. Gorgeous views from Cabin 1. Extremely memorable.

Extremely well equipped property. Even had an air fryer! Good basics and beautiful location with wildlife around. Not too far from Kingscote if you need supplies. Host was very responsive
Amazing stay!
Amani house was a wonderful place to come home to at the end of our long days exploring KI.
The house is very well equipped with everything we needed to make our own meals. Our whole crew loved the walking labyrinth and yard games as well.
Gardens were beautiful!!
To top it off, the sunrises were stunning!

A lovely unit that had everything needed to spend 2 to even 10 days in the island.
A fabulous property with fantastic host's. The check in process was very easy and the house was clean, airy and very well presented - the milk in the fridge was a lovely touch and much appreciated. The setting is gorgeous and we had residential koalas outside our front window and kangaroos from the kitchen window. The beach is within walking distance and it is a fabulous beach. Kingscote is a short drive and we travelled all over the island on good sealed roads. The property has a well stocked kitchen, with every utensil you may need. The BBQ was a good addition. I cannot recommend this property highly enough and the hosts went all out to make you feel welcome and are very knowledgeable about the island.

My Wife and I travel quite a lot. This place is special. The units are well equipped and spotlessly clean. The owner Rene was welcoming and informative of the local area.The local wildlfe including the Koalas and birds were fascinating to watch. I highly recommend staying here and hope I can visit again

Lovely peaceful location
Our cottage was small but extremely well-equipped. The host was very helpful with suggestions of places to visit and where to eat - including sending links to local places. Even letting us know where the closest koalas were (very close!) The location was lovely. Very peaceful, with distant views over the water. The closest town is 15 minutes drive, but it's easy to organise around that. I would stay here again.

One of the most beautiful places we have ever been. The hosts are very nice, helpful from the booking to the Check-out, everything indicated exactly and you feel the appreciation for the guests with every writing and also inside the house, very comfortable and arranged with love.
The shalom house is situated very calm, a little bit aside and with a beautiful view. Inside is everything you need and outside a nice place to sit. The surrounding garden ist amazing and we have seen lots of birds, koalas and kangaroos. The Labyrinth is mystic and wonderful. Thanks Zanne and Dirk for everything, you made our stay in Emu bay KI very special.
The property had everything one need to have to have a amazing stay. ***** The view from our Bayview home was spectacular. I still can’t believe waking up every morning to see that amazing view. I want to rate the place 10/10 it was total bargain. One of the cheapest stays on the island, still can’t believe what we paid for what we got.
The owner Rene was lovely too, she came over the day after we got there to ensure. We had everything we needed to enjoy our holiday. I will definitely recommend this place to anyone without hesitation.
I can’t wait to come back here on our next trip to KI.
