Super-clean, fabulous Ocean Views & Location, Location, Location! With a 'Spot-On' address in the heart of Kingscote, this impeccably stylish 3-storey townhouse is sure to impress! Leave the car parked & take a casual stroll to shops, cafes, the jetty, beach, playground, breakfast @ Cactus Cafe + dinner @ The Odd Plate, with tour pick ups & the ferry shuttle bus just around the corner. There are beautiful walking trails which wind around the coast to enjoy, almost always seals & pelicans near the jetty & often dolphins in the bay.

You can look forward to a meticulously maintained property, with modern, neutral styling, an upmarket 'hotel-style' feel, super-comfortable beds with white, hotel-grade linens, beach towels, wifi, Smart TV's, stylish furniture, air conditioned (individually controlled in each room) & very importantly, on mains water.
THE LIVING SPACES: Downstairs is a spacious lounge room with huge 70" Smart TV & 3 x super-comfy sofa beds which opens to a private courtyard, with outdoor dining table (seats 6), plus laundry facilities. The mid-level kitchen & dining space has a 8 seat dining table, fully equipped kitchen, including a Nespresso coffee machine & dishwasher, Smart TV & sofa. Open up the sliding doors onto you balcony to use the Weber Q Family BBQ, enjoy your coffee, local gin from KI Spirits, or wine from Dudley Wines, Islander Estate or Bay of Shoals - just complete it with a good book or long chats - you'll be spending a lot of time in this space! Even in winter, this level is so beautiful for admiring the ocean's beauty and gorgeous sunrises & it's quite a sheltered space.
GUEST NUMBERS: Base rate includes up to 2 x guests using standard bedding (choose from 3 Beds: King, Queen & Double Size), with a fee for extra guests/non standard bedding (Max 8). Only booked, paying guests can stay or visit (no free visitors, including children, at any time). Max1 x infant <2 yrs stays free. About 4-6 guests is a very comfortable occupancy with the 3 beds (noting that bedrooms 2 & 3 are only small apartment-sized bedrooms), however if you need to accommodate a larger group (max 8 including adults, kids, infants), there's plenty of living space for everyone to spread out relax & but you'll need to pre-arrange for use of sofa beds in the big downstairs lounge room or upstairs master bedroom.
BEDROOMS: Bedroom 1: Large bedroom privately located on the top level, with 1 x King Size Bed, ensuite bathroom, Smart TV, opens onto a balcony with stunning views, thick curtains, individually controlled a/c. This room is a real treat for the grown ups, you'll feel like you have your own hotel suite!
Bedroom 2: 1 x Queen Size bed (mid level) in a smaller bedroom, individually controlled a/c +thick curtains.
Bedroom 3: 1 x Double Bed (mid level) in a smaller bedroom, individually controlled a/c + thick curtains.
Bedrooms 2 and 3 share a bathroom on the mid-level
Sofa Beds: For use by arrangement only (addit. charge applies), 1 in Bedroom 1, 3 in Downstairs Lounge room, these are very comfortable 'Koala' brand sofa beds.
**Important: there are 3 x bedrooms, with 3 beds in total, please ensure that this configuration will be suitable for your group, noting that a double bed isn't as large as a queen & the 2 minor bedrooms aren't big enough to add extra beds or a cot, as these two smaller bedrooms are just small 'apartment sized' bedrooms**
LINENS: All professionally laundered linens are provided, including Beach Towels, bath towels, tea towels, bedding etc. Please bring cot bedding for your little one if required. Staining from Fake Tan will incur a linen replacement fee as we can not even bleach it out of the white linens.
CONSUMABLES: Basic consumables are provided for your convenience (toilet paper, paper towel, dishwasher tablets, soaps, food wraps, pepper+salt, cofffee+tea etc.).
CHILDREN: Children are very warmly welcomed & are very special guests indeed - families love it here - but please keep in mind that this is a luxury, high quality property that's welcoming & beautiful for respectful families, but certainly not kid-proof & children will need supervision for both their safety and to not damage furniture etc. You'll all love the convenience of the fenced park, playground and BBQ facilities just across the road. We can supply a porta-cot & highchair by arrangement. There are however balconies, stairs & normal household risks, so caring supervision is required of your precious children, as this property is not set up to be specifically child-safe.
ACCESS: These amazing views & 3 storeys / split levels, mean stairs (and a good excuse for an extra holiday indulgence!)...however there isn't a lift, so if you have mobility issues navigating stairs, as much as we'd love to welcome you, this may not be the best option. But don't worry, we might be able to help you with suitable alternative accommodation, please get in touch.
CHECK IN / OUT TIMES: Standard check in is from 3pm, check out by 10am. During the Festive Season (late Dec-late Jan), we will confirm available check in/out times (usually 4pm check in over Xmas/New Year), as we need to work in with housekeeping so that everything is perfectly presented for you (we don't cut corners just because it's peak season!).
PARTY POLICY: This strictly isn't the place for wild, crazy parties, schoolies, buck's, hen's etc. You're very welcome to celebrate a special occasion in a quiet & sensible manner (it's absolutely gorgeous!), however functions require prior approval, only booked guests may attend the property (no extra free visitors sorry) & no disturbance to neighbours - thank you kindly :). There's a great group BBQ & undercover picnic area across the road at the playground / park for groups to get together & celebrate.
PETS: Sorry, pet's aren't allowed on the property-we love fur-babies but have no insurance whatsoever for damage caused by animals or pets. GENUINE Assistance animals provide valuable support & are naturally very welcome, however we'll just need to know in advance so that we can make appropriate arrangements.
CLEANING: We hope you love how clean the property is presented! Standard cleaning is naturally included & our pleasure to provide-you certainly don't have to clean the whole house when you leave-however like most holiday rentals, the expectation is that it's respected and just needs to be left neat & tidy, certainly not filthy, spills wiped up, rubbish in bins & items-particularly in the kitchen-put back where they were found on arrival. A big thank you! We don't have fish cleaning facilities.
TRAVEL INSURANCE: Sometimes holidays don't go as planned, and something may arise which prevents travel or impacts your stay, such as illness, missed or cancelled transport or weather events. As such, Travel Insurance is highly recommended. There isn't an automatic refund if you can't get your flight/ferry etc-for this reason please don't forget to arrange your travel insurance. We do NOT cover your financial risk for things outside of our control (ie if Qantas or Sealink cancels, if miss your flight, have car trouble, you or a family member becomes unwell etc).
WHEN TO VISIT: Everyone loves the peak Festive Season to enjoy KI's amazing beaches, do the Dolphin Swim tour & long lazy bbq's with friends in the warm evenings - and who wouldn't! But don't overlook visiting in the cooler months for great bushwalking weather & stunning photography opportunities, or simply time to enjoy beach walks, a bit of fishing, the wineries, take the kids to the playground and explore the little shops.
PARKING: Parking will be in the private driveway, or on the street (Kingscote tends to be incredibly safe for parking your car). The garage is not available for parking (we have half of it blocked off for our housekeeping supplies).
ANY QUESTIONS?: Please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions at all, its a pleasure to welcome you to beautiful Kangaroo Island for a wonderful stay.
