Vacation rentals with a firepit in Kangaroo Island

This is a quintessential Australian beach shack in a lovely peaceful location with an easy walk to the beach. Spacious front deck with lovely views a great spot for morning coffee and the odd sundowner. The shack was stocked with everything we needed and there were a few lovely individual touches that made us feel very welcomed. Decorated with wonderful art and funky furniture appropriate to the shack vibe we really enjoyed all the amenities provided. As a host Scott was always easy to reach and we appreciated the suggestions for places to eat and / or stock up on the way to our escape. If you are looking to relax and recharge this is the place, just beautiful.

Fantastic stay. The location itself was amazing - whisper quiet, within the Carrickalinga dark sky community (so some excellent star viewing at night) yet only 5 mins drive to the excellent Normanville shops and modern surf lifesaving club. The house itself was very spacious - easily accomodating our family of 5. On hot summer nights there were portable fans for use in the bedrooms (which was needed). Fiona was always contactable and great to deal with.

Well stocked, very clean, mod cons, spacious rooms and bedrooms. Lots of boatd games, DVD's, books and magazines etc. Megan's communication was very prompt and was very accommodating. The surrounds were very peaceful , in particular the lovely pine forest trails. Lots of kangaroos around yard and in reservoir which was lovely. Unfortunately due to dry summer the resorvoir area in front of house didn't have water and water levels too low for kyaking so would suggest asking about water levels prior to booking if these things are what you're interested in othrrwise a beautiful home is lovely natural surrounds, relaxing and would highly recommend.

Just Beachy was perfect for our group of friends. Nice and close to the beach, very clean, had everything we needed. Communication was great from the hosts, with lots of tips for things to do and contacts for where to book! Thanks for having us!

The Surf Shack is a wonderful, off-the-grid getaway, within walking distance of beautiful Stokes Bay beach. We made friends with the wildlife and enjoyed cosy fires. Thanks so much for being our home away from home during our fabulous week away on Kangaroo Island!

A beautiful space that our family enjoyed, particularly sitting under the beautiful fig tree. Couldn’t rate Simone’s home higher!

Loved the stay. Julie was an excellent host and had great communication. It is such a nice space and at a very reasonable price. We loved our stay! Thanks Julie!

Possum Ridge was a really private and peaceful retreat for our stay on Kangaroo Island. The bush surroundings were beautiful and the house very suited to our extended-family stay. We really appreciated all the facilities like TVs, BBQ, fully functioning kitchen, washing facility and many household amd pantry items available, such as kitchen items, condiments, washing and bathing needs. Plus upstairs and downstairs sitting areas which suited our multi-generation group. It was a pleasure to stay... many thanks.

The place is beautiful! Incredibly peaceful and private. We stayed for 2 nights, and changed our plans so we spent more time at the cabin rather than driving around the island. Sitting on the deck with a coffee first thing watching the sunrise and then reading my book, with the only sound the crashing of waves was a wonderful way to spend a weekend. The place is simple with everything you need and very clean. Loved that we could walk along the small track to the cliff tops and watch dolphins in the water. Will definitely come back to stay!

We loved staying in unit 3, our only regret was not staying longer than one night. Victoria has thought of everything you could possibly need for a relaxing say, and the decor is gorgeous. Loved the comfy bed, thick bathroom towels, Arsop hand soap, custom made fish-shaped cookies, and much more. It was the peaceful and relaxing stay we needed after a quick lap around the island. Thanks so much, Victoria!

A great place to stay if you want a peaceful location close to a nice town and beautiful beaches. We really enjoyed Bretts cabin as a base to explore the island. It’s well equipped for cooking, great bathroom and deck to sit out in the evening and watch the stars with a glass of wine. Brett is a really nice guy and very helpful with recommendations and advice. His dog Chase is very friendly too!

We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back. The location is tranquil and surrounded by tall trees. It is next to a conservation park, so care needs to be taken driving at dusk and night time due to wildlife. We stayed in the king room. It has a comfortable bed and modern en suite. There are several other smaller cabins but we happened to have the location to ourselves for four days. We were there during September but I imagine it would be suitable all year round because of the shade, split system air conditioning, and pot bellied wood heater. Everything apart from food was provided, including wood and we had fires at night outside at the fire pit. There is a large, well-appointed communal kitchen and a bathroom made from a converted water tank, which we tended to use rather than the en suite because it is so spectacular with the perspex roof. We also took part in a forest bathing session with Amy and a sauna, both recommended.

We had a great stay! The 'Doll's House' is a homely place, small but well equipped with everything we needed! It is right in the middle of town within easy walking distance to everything Kingscote has to offer. We would highly recommend staying there, but you have to be aware that the stairs to the bedroom are very steep!

The best part is to come across wallabies in the morning while you have your breakfast.

We had such a beautiful stay. The room was absolutely lovely—clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up. Our host was wonderful to deal with—accomodating, friendly, very responsive, and punctual, which made everything so easy. One of the highlights was the resident koala in the gum tree just outside. We were so happy there, we honestly didn’t want to leave. Thank you so much for such a special experience!

First let me just say, if you’re coming to kangaroo island, this is the place to stay. We arrived pretty late in the evening and were surprised when the cabin was so easy to find and instructions were very clear with the key easily accessible. As soon as I opened the door the first thing I noticed was the smell. It smelled so good, none of that old cabin smell but a fresh clean scent. Stepping inside proved that the smell was preparing us for what came ahead. As a germaphobe, I typically bring my own sheets and pillowcases when staying at Airbnbs. The fact that I did not feel the need to replace the provided linens speaks volumes about the cleanliness of this place—even by my irrational standards. If I could write an essay in these reviews about how neat and tidy this Airbnb was I would. The koalas we woke up to the next morning were just a cherry on top of a decadent chocolate cake. We enjoyed the coffee we made with the supplies provided and watched the koalas wake up. 10/10 stay!!
