• Vanda (10/5): Unique amazing apartment with great hosts - Ansolutely amazing, I woukd give this a 6 star if I could. Spotlessly clean, unique, huge, stylish & very comfy in a great location. To top it off, the hosts Irene & Mick are so generous & lovely leaving us eggs, cheese, ham, juice, milk, bread, beer, wine etc etc. We would definitely stay there again if ever visiting Coober Pedy. Nothing…loved everything
• Annette (10/5): Having been to Coober Pedy before and having done heaps of research on where to stay I would only stay here next time th - Everything about this b&b was awesome! Irene greeted us on arrival and pointed out all the local highlights; beautifully appointed and incredible outlook onto the vast beyond, impeccably clean; generous breakfast supplies; super comfortable beds, fantastic outdoor eating area and BBQ and undercover parking. I could go on and on. Nothing, it exceeded all expectations.
• Shanne (10/5): An amazing experience in a lovely creative dugout - so different to anything else we had experienced on our holiday in t - We loved everything. Such a unique space with everything you would want. This gorgeous dugout in Coober made our stay very special and a highlight of our trip. It is a little bit out of central township but that made it even more unique. Nothing. It was so creative and interesting.
• KMT54 (8/5): Comfortable and stylish accomodation - Nicely fitted out dugout, well planned to satisfy all needs A bit out of town,. Breakfast could have been better standard for the price.
• Erica (10/5): Brilliant! - Everything was 5 star There was not anything we did not like.
• Simone (10/5): Amazing property and great hosts - Loved everything about this property. Beautiful fit out.. Irene and Mick have thought of everything. Irene spent ages with us when we arrived and gave us loads of great suggestions about what to do.
• Maggi (10/5): An experience not to be missed - Perfect stay. We wondered what we were going to get as we drove towards the Dug Out B&B. What a pleasant surprise! Everything had been thought of. Lovely that there were breakfast options in the fridge. Totally peaceful and warm. We were amazed to know that the owners had done all the themselves work to create these beautiful apartments. Nothing
• Olga (10/5): Очень уютный отель - Огромный удобный номер. Хороший ремонт. Очень уютно Не хватало тапочек и халатов

• Leigh (10/5): -
• Gina (10/5): Amazing - Absolutely amazing experience and highly recommended for families.
• Rade (10/5): Excellent! - Excellent accommodation! The hosts, Mike and Irene, are very nice, pleasant and helpful. The kitchen is equipped with all necessities for making breakfast, with nice variation of groceries in the fridge. The location is a little bit far from the town itself, but it was not a problem for me. The apartment is spacious and modern. Complementary airport shuttle is a really nice touch! During the winter months, it would be useful to have a small heater for the bedrooms.
• Taylah (10/5): Exceptional - Your Airbnb is truly the nicest place we've ever stayed -beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean, and incredibly comfortable. It felt like a home away from home from the moment we arrived. A massive thank you for allowing us to stay here and for being such a thoughtful and welcoming host. We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Couldn’t fault this place

• Kevin (9/5): Beautiful facilities and looked after by the owners in every way - It was a once in a lifetime opportunity to live in an underground house It’s was a little bit difficult hey to get to and from
• Colin (10/5): Perfect location for a Coober Pedy visit - This is a unique property that is a perfect introduction to Coober Pedy life. The rooms are underground but extremely spacious so no feeling of being enclosed. They are fitted out exceptionally and have a real luxurious feel. It’s really quiet so nothing to disturb at night but close enough to town. Mick and Irene are perfect hosts and helped us enjoy our stay. They introduced us to Aaron at Noble tours who took us on an adventure trip around and through Coober Pedy. Give him a try as well. Nothing at all
• Marcus (10/5): Exceptional -
• Clare (10/5): Exceptional -
• Denise (10/5): Our stay at the Dug Out B&B exceeded our expectations. I wish we had stayed longer. - The accommodation was exceptional. Irene and Mick the hosts were lovely. I would recommend the Dug Out B&B to anyone wanting a truly memorable experience.

• Lisa (10/5): Exceptional -
• Rosemary (10/5): A Warm, comfortable and welcoming stay. - The welcome from Irene was appreciated. She explained how things worked and also gave us an idea of what things to do in Coober Pedy. The underground apartment itself was a well thought out and convenient space. It was warm; it was comfortable; it had all the bits and pieces you needed in a BnB. Each day the provisions were replenished. We liked the little touches provided and admired the work that had gone into setting things up. Altogether, it was impressive. Nothing to dislike.
• Prue (10/5): 5 star - Great host, full of information. Accommodation was 5 star! Everything was just perfect. Absolutely beautiful. Coober Pedy is quirky, loved it I didn't like that I had leave....🤪
• Christopher (10/5): Amazing dugout b&b - It was 5 star in every aspect, the hosts we amazing people and I won't be staying anywhere else when I visit Coober Pedy again. Nothing! The single beds may be difficult for old people though?

• Shirley (9/5): Staying in clean, comfortable, modern underground accomodation was a unique experience. Thank you. - Our stay with Irene and Mick at Dug Out B&B was a fabulous experience. Irene met us on arrival and explained tours etc that were available to do in the area. I especially loved hearing Irene tell how they've built the accommodation and we could see where they were continueing to dig out additional accommodation places. It was a unique experience and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Breakfasts were provided and Irene did some washing for us there which was most appreciated. Thank you Irene and Mick.

• Silvio (9/5): Superb - i hoped that we would be staying in the diggings, and it actually was Ceiling fans
• Ivan (10/5): Bloody Brilliant - Breakfast was included in the room, everything and much more than we needed was in the fridge and cupboards. Time spent with the owners and the stories of how they made the dugouts and their knowledge of the entire area in general was fantastic. A real shame about the dwindling population of Cober Pedy. We picked a bad time maybe to visit when some things were closed. The Accommodation itself was awesome, so unique to anywhere else in the world we have stayed.
• Angie (10/5): A amazing experience - It was absolutely stunning, stunning location. The hosts were amazing. A dug out with a difference. It’s so spa y and airy and not claustrophobic at all There was not one thing we could fault. It was beyond perfect

• Manula (10/5): Mick and Irene were great hosts. Really enjoyed the stay and would definitely go back again. - Location is isolated from the Town and has a calm vibe to it. Nothing

• Li (10/5): Highly recommended - I didn’t expect this property is so spacious. Look much better than its photos online. Very welcoming owners. A little bit pricey

• Julie (10/5): Beautiful quiet and comfortable place to stay in Coober Pedy - Beautifully designed and decorated Nothing
• Nancy (10/5): Dug out 21st century luxury - a must stay! - One of the best places we’ve ever stayed in, and definitely the most unusual one. Irene and Mick have created the Dug Out B&B with so much skill, care and an exquisite eye for design in even the smallest details, resulting in a luxurious experience in the most unexpected of places. Just the perfect place to stay in Coober Pedy! We couldn’t have asked for anything else - everything was perfect!
• Benita (10/5): Absolutely the BEST accomodation in Coober Pedy. - Dugout B&B is hands down the best dugout accommodation in Coober Pedy. Beautiful property features, spacious, clean, and hosts that have considered everything you might want or need.
• Susanne (10/5): Exceptional - A fantastic place to stay. Unique, well equipped and the hosts were very friendly and assisted in giving us guidance on the sights in the area. Far enough out if town to appreciate the beauty of the landscape.
• Katelyn (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ross (10/5): A true gem in a wonderful location. One of the best places we have stayed in. - The whole experience of living in an underground home.
• Niki (10/5): Cannot wait to come back here❤️❤️❤️ - It is a truly beautiful property Gorgeous views quiet, well appointed, clean Truly unique design. Wonderful hosts Nothing it was excellent in every way.
• Trevor (10/5): Absolutely wonderful! - Irene met us at our Dug Out B&B, she was extremely welcoming. Irene gave us many useful tips on where to visit to make our stay more memorable. Breakfast supplied was delicious, with a lot of Irene’s special touches. Bread from local bakery was supplied and delicious. Everything was clean and homely, we enjoyed a glass of our wine by the outside fire watching the stars , just stunning!
• Alisha (10/5): Exceptional -
• Claudia (10/5): Perfect, out of time, and underground oasis - We absolutely loved Mick and Irene’s place. There is nothing but admiration for the place they have build & the choices they have made in furnishing the dug out. Fully equipped, comfy bedrooms, stunning bathroom, outdoor setup (including the fire pit). Sublime sunrise and kangaroos sighting guaranteed in your own backyard. A unique place in Coober Pedy. We loved everything
• Yemeng (10/5): We definitely love to come back again. - Dug Out B&B is clean, spacious and comfortable. It's close enough to the town and museums, but also a distance away so the place is vey quiet at all times. The host Irene is very friendly and knowledgeable about the area as well as other tourist places. Water pressure is a little bit low in showers, and network access is limited. I guess this is just life in Coober Pedy.
• Hannah (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic location. Irene was wonderful and welcoming and gave us lots of great ideas about what to do around Coober Pedy. Highly recommend this beautifully crafted dug out!
• Dave (9/5): Loved the digs! - Loved the whole concept after worrying about claustrophobia. Didn't even register in there. Irene and Mick were very warm and welcoming. They had prepared all the necessary information as well all the little extra's above and beyond expectations. Food was stocked in the fridge including extra dietary needs - no trouble at all. The dugout was very comfortable and furnished to a 5 star standard. It was a labour of love to build and you felt the vibe all around you. Would have loved to have stayed longer. Bed was a little too small for us and mattress, while perfect for some, was a bit hard for us. Tv in bedroom a bit small too. Just picking faults really as none of those things really a bother in the big picture.
• Mark (10/5): Our stay at dug out was magical - cannot wait to come back to Coober Pedy, Dug out and the outback again - Totally beautiful, peaceful and ace! Nil
• Wade (9/5): Wonderful personal welcome provided by Irene & Mick & I was given a multitude of options of things to do during - Great location. Modern. The bed mattress was too soft (this is a Goldilocks comment but actually true for me!).

• Debbra (10/5): Exceptional -
• Dianna (10/5): Exceptional - The hostess was amazing, so welcoming and informative. The apartment was amazing and the breakfast supplies were exceptional. Highly recommend if visiting Coober Pedy Nothing
• Betty (10/5): This is a once in lifetime place to stay. - The apartment was a true work of art . Exceptionally crafted. Nothing
• Dillon (10/5): the ownwers are passionate about their homes and show this in the sourandings, the accommodation and their shared abilit - the apparent love and passion that went into the home nothing
• John (9/5): Superb -
• Clare (10/5): Exceptional - The B&B was beautiful, clean and comfortable. Had everything we could need. Hosts were friendly and welcoming Nothing
• Lorreen (10/5): A fabulous hideout, away from the town. Irene was ver friendly and the perfect was the perfect host. - Everything. We loved that so much heart and soul by the owners went into the creation of these gorgeous dug out units. From building it to designing and making the furniture, to the little quality touches like the beautiful toiletries and Sheridan sheets, to a laundry service and the fabulous outdoor fire pit and more. Nothing. Although a tea towel would be helpful and more paper towel was needed but that’s it.
• Wayne (10/5): Exceptional -
• Tom (10/5): Excellent can't say enough good things about our stay. - Everything was perfect, from the property it self, to the hosts (excellent) the food that was supplied for us. The information they gave us on the sights and places to see and things to do. EXCELLENT. There was Nothing we didn't like.
• Balpreet (10/5): Exceptional - everything from facilities to cleanliness to breakfast to lovely hosts
• Robert (10/5): Just wished we could stay longer. Everything was perfect. - Unique Beautiful setting Spacious Beautiful decor. Well equipped - lovely outlook. Maybe a sheet on the beds would be good as well as the doona as we got warm in the night.
• Anneke (10/5): Absolutely amazing! -
• Richard (10/5): Exceptional - The property was really clean, the fitout was amazing. Overall a wonderful experience and I would recommend to anyone Nothing
• Deb (10/5): Definitely would come back to properly and recommend to others - It was so clean and had everything we needed It was all great
• Christian (10/5): An incredible experience in the opal capital of the world - Everything was top notch. Mick and Irene are phenomenal hosts. Kind and attentive with great suggestions for activities to do in Coober Pedy. The accommodation itself is spectacular and very unique: a home dug into the side of a hill is not something you see every day! The interior is really something. It's incredibly spacious and dug directly into the rock. You can see veins of gypsum and opal running along the walls, as well as a mine tunnel above. There are holes for explosives and also holes drilled into the rock that serve as stashes for wine bottles. The furniture is almost all hand made as well. The rooms are kept at a very comfortable 20-22 degrees c, owing to the nature of the dugout. Mick and Irene have put a lot of thought and effort into the whole experience and it shows. There is a full kitchen and a fridge stocked with fresh bread, boiled eggs, ham, cheese, milk, juice, and water as well as butter and margarine. There is an honor bar with beer and wine with reasonable payment suggestions as well as complimentary port - a nice touch. Also if you don't want to deal with car rental from the airport, they have at least one 4x4 that they will loan out for very reasonable price. Location is also very convenient, about 6 minutes drive from the main street as well as to the airport. There are also some roos that like to hang out on the property! They're quite used to people and can be seen on the ridge right by the parking area every morning. I think the dug out b&b is an excellent choice for anyone visiting coober pedy, whether it's a family holiday, romantic getaway, or a road trip with friends. Do make sure you check out the night sky and sunrise/set while you're there. They are breathtaking. PS: i don't have any pictures of the interior because i made a huge video and i can't grab screenshots right now. It's truly beautiful and honestly photos don't do it justice. I literally cannot find fault with the dug out. The hosts are wonderful people and the property is awesome.
• Martin (10/5): Memorable - Great variety of choices for breakfast plus fresh fruit deserts and beverages plus the time they gave us when arriving spending time explaining local attractions very good hosts Nothink
• Mardi (10/5): Exceptional -
