Fantastic place for a family get-away!

Great location, quiet, with a lovely view, fantastic for two families with teens and young adults. Plenty of space inside for everyone to spread out, and lots to do outdoors as well. Very clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

Couldn’t fault it other than the weather. The space was big enough to entertain the kids while the adults had their time together!

Best family accommodation

Our families do an annual holiday weekend together. We look for accommodation that is age appropriate for members that are in their 70's, 40's teens and younger children. This by far has been the best place we have stayed where everyone was kept entertained the whole time. Would highly recommend and will love to stay there again.

Hindmarsh Island Paradise.

This property has everything we needed to entertain adults and teenagers alike! The games room in the garage was brilliant. We had fun fishing and swimming off the pier. We loved our long weekend and can definitely recommend the facilities and location.

Nice house

Lovely well equipped house with really comfortable beds. Nice view from top and bottom floors. Find it a bit excessive that the bond was taken from our account four weeks prior to staying there and only received it back nearly two weeks after returning home.

Hello Dawn, Thank you for your feedback, we are glad you enjoyed your stay! Unfortunately it seems our response has been split up over the 2 reviews you have made. As stated above we would like to advise that the hot water service unfortunately experienced a secondary fault and now has been repaired. The bond amount is managed by stayz and refunded to you by stayz we are currently in the process of reviewing our settings to see if we can reduce this time frame for our guests. We hope to welcome you back to Isla Bonita in the future.

Here for a good time, not a long time.

We had a fabulous stay here for the second time. The house was very clean and well maintained with an excellent layout and facilities. Lots to do with the games room, Kayaks, fishing and electronic games. We'll definitely come back to stay again in the future. Cheers, Mick C.

Lovely Property!

This house had it all! Four bedrooms was perfect for us all. With 3 bedrooms on the top floor it worked out really well as the entertainment area was downstairs so we could continue to play table tennis and pool without disturbing the two bubs. Beautiful view sitting outside. A lovely friendly man living next door! Plenty of plates, glasses and cutlery and good size fridge. Lots of sofa's for everyone to chill on! Was a great weekend away.

Great location with lots of activites to do in house.

It would be great if the key pick up and drop off would be same loction and closer to house. Bit hassal to drop of key 20 mins away while pick up was just 5 mins away. Lounge room need one more sofa to carter for large family as 5 seater is not enough.

Hindmarsh sunsets

Great location and gorgeous sunsets. Games room and kayaks a hit for kids. Comfy beds. Not sure if I missed the fact only blue ray available as nil wifi but no there. However this meant more conversation. Scissors.and hairdryer. always seem to be missing at all places.

Family Weekend

A family weekend away with my 3 adult sons and their partners. The house was big enough for everyone and having 3 bathrooms was fantastic. They made great use of the games room and the kayaks and sitting out the back overlooking the water was just divine. My only negative would be the cleanliness in the kitchen. The oven and the fridge need cleaning. The sandwich press had been put away without being cleaned and the toaster needs replacing. Be aware the 2 bunk bedrooms are very small, only room for the beds so ok for kids but not so good for adults. They would be better off just having a double bed in them without all the bunks. Overall though we had a great weekend.

Happy holiday away

I want to start by saying all the things we were not happy with had nothing to do with the property or location. The house is fantastic with heaps of space and the games room was amazing. The kids ages ranged from 7 to 17 and all were catered for. We fished, kayaked and had many a games tournament. 4 for cleanliness as inside kitchen drawers were a bit dirty with crumbs, some hair still on bathroom floor and no spare toilet paper rolls 2 for checkin as we were advised to collect the key from the victor harbour office which is further away, when I complained they said pick up from Goolwa office (why not there is the first place) then I had a txt to say keys will be ready at the house 4 for listing as it states pets allowed but then added money to the cleaning fee and increased the bond 3 for communication as I had to chase up key info and had no reply. Also as I booked through stayz and then the property is managed by Harcourt I had to pay 2 booking fees adding up to a decent amount As I said before Stayz was great and our house and holiday was great.
