Thank you for your review, Dan. I'm sorry that there was a problem with the spa unit not working properly - as mentioned it had been working perfectly when I was there a couple of days beforehand - but I'm pleased we could get the replacement unit installed on the same day. I hope you enjoyed the spa. We'd love to see you back one day! Cheers, Jane

Easter getaway

This beautiful home was just perfect for our family Easter getaway. The kids were a little disappointed the rope swings are no longer up but were very happy with the big garden, table tennis and spa. Thank-you for a wonderful stay.

I'm very pleased that you enjoyed our house, Kimberley. sorry that the rope swings have gone; the tree had to be removed to make way for renovations, but I'm glad that the children enjoyed the spa & table tennis. I hope we'll see you back one day! cheers, Jane

Beautiful view, clean, great family home, great communication by the owner. American River is a great base to see the rest of K.I. Limited groceries at the general store but the supermarket at Kingscote is only 30mins away. Great bar and restaurant food 5mins away at the Mercure Resort. The home was wonderful for us as a family member has limited mobility and there was no stairs to deal with and a great view.

Exceptional property. Stayed for 8 nights with my family and we had a marvellous holiday. There was more than enough room for us 6 adults, as well as being the perfect size to connect and spend some quality time together. All basic needs are provided for, tea, coffee, toiletries, linen. The property is exactly as pictured and described, actually even better! The location is superb and the island is easy enough to navigate around so it's a great base. Communication from the host was timely and clear so we had absolutely no issues. Would highly recommend this property and would most definitely stay here again if the opportunity arose.

I’m very pleased that you loved our house and Kangaroo Island, Lesa. I agree that it’s a great house with plenty of room for a mixed generational family or a couple of families. We’re about to add a couple of sofa beds to make that even better. I hope you enjoyed the wildlife too and that the koalas were there for you! I look forward to having you all back one day perhaps! Best wishes, Jane

A perfect stay

We had a fantastic time. The house was lovely. The location was peaceful but not too remote. The view was stunning and the terrace was the perfect place to have breakfast each morning. We loved Kangaroo Island and the house was perfect for us. The kids all had their own bedrooms and we loved the endless table tennis in between outings! Thank you.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Communication
The property was excellent, however communication through Vrbo was blocked. We were unable to communicate with the host that we needed 3 beds for our 4 adult party, two of which not in a relationship. We found 2 rooms, each with one double bed, and all other bedrooms were locked. We had to pull one double bed apart to create two single beds, but no sheets were available for this. We had to make do, which felt poorly for the price we paid. This was entirely avoidable if the website had been clearer about bedroom configurations and available options.
