Geoff the owner welcomed me from the ferry as if he’d known me for years. The accommodation was basic but clean, comfy and had everything needed. The hideaway 2 mins walk next door had a nice bistro bar with lots of friendly people, but i personally think the holiday village was better because of the kitchen and snorkelling facilities, with still having the option to go to the bistro for food if needed. A word of advice, if hiking to any of the snorkelling beaches, wear some decent shoes, sandals didn’t cut it. Better still just rent a kayak and paddle around to shelving and monkey beaches instead. Would love to have stayed longer than I did.

Accommodation is clean and spacious. There was a full size fridge which was great but no glasses, plates or coffee making facilities. The island itself is absolutely beautiful.

Hi ,thanks for kind words. We have the central kitchen which keeps everything in one place and from a kettle perspective. we are on a small generator with one kettle only. You were welcome to take your drinks to your cabin which I hope you did. Hope we see you again. Regards, Marg

Quiet relaxation
Our host Geoff was fabulous and very helpful and friendly. Loved being on island time. Our accommodation while not five star was more than we expected with great cooking facilities and a cool outdoor area for socialising with our group. It was great to be able to access boards and snorkling gear for swimming fun. I would love to return to this place sometime soon

Great place to relax and do nothing or swim
Geoff the owner picks you up from the ferry and takes your baggage to the Holiday Village while you get to take the short walk alone pristine white sands to the village. This place is low key with options of cabins, tents and a house. There is a common well equipped kitchen with large fridge, common open air lounge room and free use of snorkelling equipment and paddle boards. the showers are very basic but do have hot water. The fresh water is used only for drinking as its rainwater. There is a nearby bar and bistro if you don't want to cook or short walk to pizza place. The main attraction is the beaches! You may need to wear ear plugs as there are very noisy possums at night.

Stay at Holiday Village dissapointing
Management great and very accommodating but our cabin needed a lot of maintenance particularly the bathroom. Holiday Village quiet but with no screens on front door or fans this cabin might be uncomfortable in the middle of summer.

GKI Holiday
Had a fantastic trip away with the family staying in the Dolphin Cottage. The owner Geoff was very welcoming and had great suggestions to make the most of our stay. He even gave us a lift to the other side of the island where we checked out a couple more beaches and hiked our way home. Would highly recommend a stay here.
