Summary: Lovely cabin with rustic features and composting toilet

Helen L. Mar 6, 2025 03:45:57 PM

Summary: If you want to be away from it all, this property is for you! It was amongst the melaleucas, and I couldn't even see the neighbouring properties. Focus was definitely on eco-friendly.The bed was very comfortable, the property has some quirky features.

Summary: Okay, picture this, Grandpa and two of his grandchildren on a visit to Kangaroo Island at the Melaleuca Mansion. Grandpa gets the big bed in the house and the kids get the bunk beds in the bunkhouse.First off location: Fabulous and so close to what must be the best beach in South Australia. The kids loved the breakers and the uncrowded beach was magnificent. We even saw a seal surfing the waves on our last day.Parking: Handy off street parking and a short walk down a path through the Melaleucas to the main cottage and/or bunkhouse.Cottage: Wonderful rustic and comfortable. Excellent bathroom (great water pressure), interesting loo (very eco) and lots of cooking utensils and supplies.Bunkhouse: A bit basic, one of the boys is quite tall and found the bunk bed a bit short.Wifi: With two young boys wifi was a must and connection in the cottage was great. unfortunately the bunkhouse was out of range. Possibly an extender for the wifi could fix that.Nature: we had lots of birds visit and in the evening the occassional wallaby would pass through the Melaleucas.Comfort: The main bed was great, lounge chairs very comfy. However, it was quite hot while we were there and there are only 2 freestanding fans on site. The house wasn't too bad but the bunkhouse was quite hot. Would be good to have a couple of airconditioners installed.Host: Great communication from Heidi.All in all, we loved it and the kids had a great time.

Summary: A fabulously quirky property in a quiet location near the beach and handy for Seal Bay and Flinders Chase. We particularly loved the ‘throne room’ looking out over the trees!

Summary: What a wonder, naturally beautiful, a short walk to the amazing Vivonne bay beach. The most comfortable bed, an understanding of great coffee (provided!) Glamorous new bathroom!

Summary: Loved the warm, cozy, quirky vibes of this place. Eco-friendly without sacrificing comfort. A great base for a KI getaway.

Israel D. Jan 24, 2024 10:39:56 AM

Summary: A beautiful, unique and tranquil place to stay. The tree studded garden was lovely day and night. Felt like we were away from everyone. It was walking distance to the beach and a short drive to the General Store where we bought the Famous KI Whiting Burger and took it back to enjoy in the garden. Also reasonably close to Flinders Chase National Park. The host was great and responded quickly to any queries we had. We had a great time.

Naiara C. Oct 28, 2023 07:02:02 AM

Summary: It was such a homely place to stay! The fireplace and kitchen made it so nice and cosy. Loved also the fact there was good coffee available- huge bonus and really essential! Only thing I would recommend is to leave the house instructions booklet on the main table in the open- took us a little while to find it. Thanks for sharing your beautiful place! Definitely a piece of paradise
