Newland Apart Hotels

"The property’s rural location is fabulous and offers outstanding views across Snelling beach. The ambience is lovely and the property is well equipped. Each pod is well separated from its neighbour. The bed is very comfortable and there is absolute silence at night. Our two night stay was delightful. However, as it is off grid there is no microwave, toaster or washing machine. We were disappointed there were no coat hangers to hang our clothes. It would be advisable to take some insect repellant as we had quite a few mosquitoes gain entry on our last night."

"Great location. Very helpful staff. Loved the koalas! Great stay."

"This place is all about the location, which really is spectacular. We loved the uninterrupted ocean views and private access to the beach which we were able to enjoy mostly to ourselves (occasionally saw the odd person from a neighbouring house). As another reviewer mentioned, you're paying for the location. The house itself is a bit tired and the photos do tend to show it's best side, and not the older bathroom and kitchen. We did have one issue with the power having gone out before we arrived due to a lightening strike. Obviously out of the owner's control, but still problematic when the water pump relies on electricity. We ended up having power back on that evening but no water. It was only in the morning that we worked out for ourselves the pump and water valves had all been turned off so we unnecessarily spent a night without water, including no flushing toilet. This put a damper on the start of our trip, although it was better once we had running water again."

"Nice place on a beautiful island. Easy to get around from the house. Thanks for a lovely stay."

"Exceptional experience "

"Waves and Wildlife was a perfect oasis for our stay on KI. The hosts were super friendly and we loved everything about the place especially the wildlife"

"Good internet and great access to a pretty quiet beach. Fabulous seafood platter provided by the hosts, Rachel and Georgie.EV charger a big plus as no other easy access on KI - Penneshaw charger 112 kms away"

"Great comfy accommodation with modern facilities including bbq and fireplace, heater and electric blankets to keep you warm. No wifi and no dishwasher though. Has all the little things you need to prepare meals. Good central location on the island to visit the main attractions. "

"Our visit to Kangastay was very comfortable - it is a well equipped holiday home with comfy beds, easy parking in a good location in Vivonne Bay."
