Opposite end of island from Seal Bay and Flinders Chase but still great for wildlife. Hotel provided fish for Pelican Feeding next to hotel which was a fantastic experience. Pool and restaurant good and staff really helpful and friendly. Recommend it as good place to stay on the island.

We were very impressed by the quality of the food in the restaurant, the incredibly friendly and helpful staff and the amazing salt water swimming pool. The darma wallabies grazing at night right next to the motel were just absolutely the classic Australiana!

The area was quiet. There was walking trails and we were able to watch some Tameer wallbys playing in the evening. The restaurant was convenient and food was good. It was easier to find your way around and go to any place on the Island. The staff was friendly and very helpful answering questions.

Such a great location for accommodation! Only 30 minute drive from the Ferry, beautiful views, such a quiet and peaceful location, really felt like you were out in nature, it was very relaxing. The room was a good size, with nice little balcony with sliding door for nice airflow. The dining options were good, staff were very friendly! Would definitely stay here again if visiting Kangaroo Island again.

The bathroom got a bit cramped when both hubby and I wanted to use the sink due to the door placement.
