Hard to beat!

This was an amazing place to stay, from the welcoming note upon arrival to the ease of returning the keys! Everything we needed (except food) was there! If your looking for a practical, affordable, place to stay, that is close to everything, that has the most amazing view this is it!

Relaxing, comfortable and convenient location.

Well presented, clean and comfortable property with everything you need. Great views of Venus bay from the living area and deck and with ample parking for cars/boat. Conveniently located to the South Head walk (a must) and within walking distance to the general store. I'd recommend Karen's property and Venus Bay if you're looking to get away for a relaxing break.

Venus March 2024 Fishing trip

Perfect for our requirements. Everything worked. BBQ was in need of a clean but otherwise all good. Inadvertently locked ourselves out when closing the rear sliding screen door but managed to get back in OK. Latch must have slipped into lock position before closing. Nice touch with complimentary wine - appreciated that thank you!

Gorgeous views at Venus Bay

The house is great but we spent most of our time on the front deck to enjoy the panoramic views of Venus Bay. The table on the deck doubled as a desk and boardgame platform during the day; desk with the best views in SA!
