About the host
Hosted by Paul and Elizabeth Simpson-Smith
We are Elizabeth and Paul, owners and hosts of SeaKing Escape. We are originally from Adelaide but are now Kangaroo Island residents. We very much enjoy living in this beautiful location, but a love of our property and a hands on approach to the care and presentation of it, led us to relocate here. If a clean, well-maintained property with all the comforts of home is important to you, SeaKing Escape is the perfect place for your next stay.
