Love the location! only 5 mins walk from the ferry terminal. The room is large and spacious. They have breakfast spread and coffee, payment needed. Walk 5mins to the only grocery store and lovely cafes, restaurants. I'll book it again in a heart beat!

Better view on first floor, there're villas by the pool, but you will completely miss the ocean view

Title: Beautiful location, but mixed feelings about the accommodation Rating: 3.5/5 “I really wanted to love Kangaroo Island Seafront – and the location almost gets it there on its own. The property sits right on the edge of the water in Penneshaw, with incredible sunset views over Backstairs Passage. The rooms are clean but dated. Think basic motel style – old carpets, tired bathroom, and a bed that was just okay. Air conditioning worked well, but no cooking is allow although a basin was installed. Staff were friendly and helpful, though reception hours are limited. Overall, it’s perfectly fine for a night or two if you’re prioritizing location over modern comforts. If you want a resort experience, look elsewhere. But the nature in Kangaroo Island is a wow factor by itself. A must visit for any nature lover.

Everything was great. My friend and I had a lovely stay. The location is very close to the pier ... quite convenient for the day before leaving the island. However, the island is not that big. Staying in this hotel is anyway a good choice. I drove to the opposite side of island...this was also possible. Staffs are lovely.

Highly recommended! The staff was very nice and friendly, the room big and cozy. The complimentary breakfast was amazing, we had breakfast with the prettiest ocean view.

Perfect place to stay overnight, great location. The sea is in front of the hotel. Also, has a little swimming pool in the garden . The room we stayed in was a bit outdated.

The ingredients are very fresh, and the merchants are really honest. The coupons on the platform are also very cost-effective. They will get better and better! This price is really much more cost-effective than other platforms, and the environment and hygiene are not inferior to other platforms. I must come to this platform that I have always trusted and chosen. It has food, drink, and entertainment. I can buy everything I want here. It is really suitable for me!

We arrived after sunset on the ferry, so the location just a few hundred meters from the terminal was convenient. It might also be a good option for those with plans in Beneshoe. Our room was on the second floor facing the ocean, but there were only stairs, which made it difficult to get there with two heavy suitcases. There was also a road on the ocean side, so it was noisy when cars passed by. The room amenities were minimal. There was only a small shower, which was difficult on a cold winter's day, so we didn't use it. Breakfast was minimal, but the taste was just okay. While it was nice that they could cook meals for us, it was very salty and inedible. However, since there are few places to eat outside, I recommend choosing a plan that includes breakfast.

The room is very nice. Face the sea. There is a swimming pool in the courtyard and a mini golf course next to it. It is very close to the pier and there is a supermarket behind it. There are also little kangaroos in the yard. There are snails all over the ground at night, and many of them are crushed, which is very annoying.

A standard island resort hotel. The hotel is facing the sea, with a first-line sea view. The more troublesome thing is that there are no service facilities after dark (of course this has nothing to do with the hotel itself), and the food and beverage on Kangaroo Island is basically gone after 6 pm. The hotel network is very poor and basically unusable. Non-Australian tourists are advised to use Telstra's mobile network, and never use Vodafone!

The hotel facilities are very convenient and clean. It provides kitchen and simple tableware, dishwashing liquid, cutting plates and knives. The service staff is very friendly. The location is near the pier. Guests who can stay for one night are accepted (this time I ordered a twin bed + two sofa beds)
