A home away from home and somewhere to come back too. Views are stunning, house is clean. Very open planned living. Sit back and watch the wildlife, beach and beautiful nature.

If we could give 6 stars, we would. Allure was perfectly private with (virtually) its own private beach but with exclusive views of the bay. The house was bright and airy and excellent for 4 people (our group) to relax and enjoy walks from the house or a base to explore KI. The kitchen was well stocked with equipment to ensure our culinary skills were supported on the bbq or inside in the kitchen. On some cooler evenings, the wood burner was well received and plenty of wood to keep it burning. We will definitely love to return.

Amazing location, the place has everything we need including amazing views, wallabies grazing around the property and a secret viewing deck which provided a different view of the Bay!! Fantastic communication by the host and they even made up a port-a-cot for our 7 month old. Would highly recommend and we look forward to returning again.

We had a wonderful stay in this peaceful, private location with fabulous views and surrounds. Everything we needed was in the property and the food hamper that we ordered through Antonia and Deb provided lasted us the whole 5 days and enabled delicious picnics at Flinder’s Chase NP. Explored the whole island from this point with ease. Shaun’s bee experience at Living Honey 7mins up the road was a highlight along with KI oysters, False Cape winery and we should have left more time for KI Spirits as the garden alone is worth visiting. The Cliffs golf course wasn’t open yet (mid Nov) so we will just have to come back - sigh! :)

Allure is an amazing property with an ideal location. It is very clean and very comfortable and allows you to feel at home away from home. You feel you have the island to yourself and after a busy days travel you can relax into the surroundings. Warm fires, great vistas, ambience for days on end, and wildlife abounds. We loved it and our kids loved it too.Thank you, Allure for making the end of our travels an absolute delight.

Thanks for leaving a review Riaan and delighted you enjoyed the privacy and nature surrounding Allure. I've messaged you separately to see if there are any specific things we can do to push us up into a 5* rating and hoping there wasn't anything that detracted from your visit. Hope you had a great trip to KI.
