Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Kangaroo Island Council

Melaleuca Mansion is a fabulous spot nestled in Vivonne Bay. Private, rustic, clean as a pin, lovely linen and a well stocked kitchen. This is a tune out, chillax and immerse yourself in total peace type of place. We barbecued most nights and enjoyed beach walks when we weren’t exploring the rest of the island. For those new to a composting toilet - it does not smell at all. Very impressed. Also, hot water came on very fast so minimal wastage. Heidi went to great efforts to ensure our stay was comfortable. Thoroughly recommend Melaleuca Mansion.

Our 3 kids loved playing in the magnificent tree so much that they wish we could come back every vacation. Us parents had so much joy looking at the beautiful lagoon and trees surrounded by kangaroos living in peace. The atmosphere is very special and serene.

excellent stay ideally location for the ferry and nearby restaurant and shop. the host quick to respond to messages and clarified detail as I'm disabled and it was important to understand what the access to the property would be like. thanks for a great stay stay we would definitely stay again p

Very nice place, lovely house and good location in between seals bay and flinders chase national park. Would book it again

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!

We had a lovely stay at Ben’s off-grid house - quiet and peaceful location close to beach but still very private within a bush setting and with coastal views - House was very comfortable and cosy with everything necessary for our stay- great wood heater

Thank you, Paula and John, for welcoming my family and me into your beautiful home. The house is truly charming, and the serene location, with its proximity to the beach, made our stay even more enjoyable. We can’t wait to return and create more wonderful memories there!

Located well and a short walk to all of Kingscote! The bedding and Manchester quality were fantastic and made long days of touring lovely to return home for a shower and bed

'The Nest' is a beautiful place to stay, not only for the stunning views but the amenities and finishes of the place were absolutely gorgeous and luxurious. We felt comfortable immediately. It is a perfect base for a few days of exploring KI while providing the perfect amount of relaxation after some exploring (or even just for a whole day of rest). We'd love to come back in the winter sometime to rug up near the fire with a good coffee from the coffee machine while enjoying more of the view.

Yael and Robert provided a gorgeous eco retreat on an amazing section of Kangaroo Island. All the local goodies and recommendations given was amazing. Super attentive and responsive throughout our whole stay. The villa was a great location for ‘home base’ to explore the island from. Lots of wildlife can be seen from the villa. Some special treats were a koala only one metre off the ground as well as a kangaroo with its Joey. Would definitely stay again!

The best Airbnb so far!! What a view. A must to book - don’t hesitate. Every morning my daughter and I would watch the family of Blue Wrens forage the garden and count how many frogs we could find in the pond. A place to reconnect with nature and switch off. We didn’t feel the need to leave once our entire stay.

We enjoyed a two-night stay at Cabn over the Easter long-weekend. The cabin is well furnished for guests to be self-sufficient, and the location is private and peaceful, with lots of wildlife (kangaroos, sheep, birds, etc.). However, Cape St Albans has less within driving distance compared to other areas of Kangaroo Island, and for this reason, we recommend only staying two-nights.

We stayed here three nights and loved it. The outdoor areas, surroundings and wildlife were truly special. It was amazing to have penguins in the literal backyard and a great beach a couple of minutes' walk away that was effectively a private beach as there was never anyone there, and one night we had a possum walk right up to the windows and look in at us. Indoors it was excellent too - very clean, plenty of space for a couple as there were two bedrooms, and well-equipped in every way including in the kitchen (we found it a good idea to stock up on groceries from Kingscote for cooking dinner). Definitely recommended!
