Guest Reviews

• Dominic (10/5): - Amy created an own paradise in the quiet forest. We had a very good time with hopping kangaroos around us. Great experience! Thank you very much! Unfortunately we had to leave
• egbert (5/5): -
• Penelope (10/5): - Great location in the bush. The birds came to us! Nothing
• Robert (10/5): -
• Martin (10/5): Great and unique place to stay on Kangaroo Island! We would definitely come back! - What a great and unique place to stay on Kangaroo Island! We really loved it, one of the very best experiences we had in Australia. Cozy & spotless clean room, very comfortable bed. Amy, the host and owner was very very welcoming and responsive. We booked the Sunset Forest Flow Experience - it was fantastic to take a bath in a private hot tub with Kangaroos roaming around you at sunset.
• Daniela (10/5): - Abbiamo soggiornato in questa location a Kangaroo Island e non avremmo potuto scegliere un posto migliore! Natura è davvero la parola d’ordine: ogni momento regalava incontri con la fauna locale e una sensazione di pace totale. L’alloggio era accogliente, curato e perfettamente integrato nell’ambiente circostante, ideale per staccare dalla routine e vivere un’esperienza autentica. Un ringraziamento speciale anche alla proprietaria, una persona davvero deliziosa, attenta e disponibile, che ha reso il nostro soggiorno ancora più piacevole. Per chi cerca un’esperienza unica, questo è senza dubbio il luogo perfetto. Ci siamo trovati benissimo. Consigliatissimo.
• Annett (9/5): - What a beautiful and heartwarming place to be. I got my own room with bath and share the kitchen with other guests. Amy is a wondefull host and a very lovely person. You can sit in the garden and hear about the birds and animals around. A kangaroo is come to visit and it was a very joyfull event for me. If i come back to kangaroo island i will always stay by Amy.
• ALESSANDRA (8/5): -
• lucio (10/5): Un bellissimo soggiorno in mezzo alla natura e ....ai Canguri - Bellissima la posizione, eccellente là stanza comune( soggiorno e cucina),dotate di tutto con frigo pieno per una cena e una colazione.la stanza con grandi finestre dove la mattina si affaccia. una famiglia di Canguri che fanno una grande compagnia.Ottima la camera.Come in tutta l ' isola il wifi non sempre e' potente.Super consigliato.Ottimi i libri sulla natura del territorio.
• Tali (9/5): Beautiful hotel - Beautiful location, definitely would recommend hiring a car to explore Kangaroo Island. The room was really lovely and the bed was comfortable, a perfect stay. Even had a few kangaroos hopping around the place! N/A
• Keith (9/5): Fantastic location in pretty, secluded spot. - Secluded location. Great atmosphere. Be sure to fill the bird bath outside the shared social area to easily see many of the local species. Room was a little small.
• Gabriele (8/5): - El entorno y la sala común, era muy comodo y en plena naturaleza Cuando llegamos estaba todo oscuro y no habían indicaciones. Teniamos buscar la habitación y el baño y no encontramos el wifi
• Danick (10/5): Exceptional -
• Cintia (8/5): Very good - Clean and beautiful area. The access to the room the door is on the toilet
• Dhara (8/5): Very good -
• Harry (8/5): Very good -
• Graeme (10/5): Magical organic forest experience; dopamine for the senses. - It was a magical unique experience a truly authentic Kangaroo Island experience. Hammocks, Sauna, ice bath, outdoor shower, great facilities for making a special dinner under the stars sprinkled with fairy lights in a forest out of a fairy tail. A yoga studio and massage studio for those seeking ultimate relaxation. The natural setting lent itself to a welcoming party of wildlife up close and personal from Kangaroos, wallabies, even owls. Amy could not have been more accommodating. Surrounded by nature walks in the Pelican lagoon conservation park. Bring red lights and torches for a walk at night under the curtain of stars. From glamping to the queen room with an ensuite and comfy bean bag chairs nestled in the forest...what an amazing place!
• Chris (4/5): Regrettably a little disappointing compared to the other accommodations we stayed in here in Ozzy. - The location and setting were great. The highlight was the visits from the resident kangaroos. 1) Nobody there to greet us. 2) There was an electricity outage from about 06:00, hence no internet, no water and no lights and no information as to whom to contact! No information regarding this issue. 3) the property was in a state of disrepair. One sliding door (mosquito gauze) was broken and didn’t stay closed. 4) 2 of the doors with mosquito gauze torn off the frame.
• Carol (10/5): Exceptional - kitchen was well equipped & had lots of stuff you don't want to buy like oil & salt & pepper etc Great quiet location, lots ofcarea to have own space kangaroo visits not too far from Penneshaw for supplies
• Thorley (8/5): Very relaxing - The location, the atmosphere and the price Bed size - I am 6ft 4 and a single bed did not make for an enjoyable stay... but i survived :)
• Melissa (8/5): Very good -
• Elnaz (8/5): Very good -
• Sam (8/5): Relaxing! - Such a peaceful location, and seeing the kangaroos in the evenings is great. Amy is such a kind person too and was so welcoming, and seemed genuinely interested when talking to me Only tiny complaint would be the wifi not reaching the bedroom
• Katharina (10/5): Wonderful cabin in the woods with kangaroos and wallabies around - Wonderful cabin in the woods! Kangaroos and wallabies were visiting the area to get some water - it was an amazing experience. Would definitely come back :)
• Jenny (9/5): Excellent place to see. - It was great, rustic, everything we needed. Didn’t get to meet the owner but she left us a welcome message. Nothing
• Helene (9/5): Superb retreat to experience the wildlife - The location is superb!! Lost in the middle of nowhere, next to the wildlife and Nature, close to the beach. The general atmosphere, the kitchen, the outdoor setting... it was a perfect retreat and a good base to explore the island. we were a couple and I had ended up booking the room with twin beds... but did not realise that it was such a small room. I should have been offered the option to opt for the double bedroom which was available at the time
• Piotr (9/5): Superb - Big kitchen, everything in the room was clean and new. No heating in the room and empty shampoo bottle in the bathroom.
• Theo (9/5): Superb - Very nice and peaceful, surrounded by kangaroos. Comfortable, clean and friendly owner :) The dirt track up to the was a bit of a challenge without a 4x4
• Emma (10/5): Exceptional - This was a lovely place to stay on KI. You were nestled amongst trees with plenty of wildlife around.
• Jo (9/5): Superb - Location and facilities were really great.
• Darong (9/5): Superb -
• Acacia (10/5): Excellent. Came to see kangaroos and saw the most kangaroos right in the comfort of our stay - Everything was excellent, beautiful outdoor sitting area, the kitchen / common living area has a big window where you can watch kangaroos drink water, the rooms were comfortable. Saw a good amount of kangaroos passing through. Kitchen well stocked with kitchen supplies used for cooking. Keep the bird feeder full of water and the kangaroos will keep coming!!
• Glenn (10/5): Exceptional -
• Deborah (9/5): A little haven away from home. - Remote and quite with lovely relaxed facilities. Kangaroo and bird visitors aplenty. The best was a bit noisy and not as comfy as I would have preferred, but I slept okay.
• Khanh (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ilaria (10/5): Awesome experience - Amazing stay surrounded by kangaroos, which is something I won’t ever forget. Having a shower overlooking the wood is just unforgettable. Well equipped kitchen.
• Mary (10/5): Exceptional -
• Vekariya (9/5): Superb -
• Thompson (9/5): Superb -
• Emily (10/5): Paradise, didn’t want to leave - Incredible location. We were in a great spot to visit so many attractions, but it was the natural surroundings we appreciated the most. We got so excited at the end of each day to come back and just take in the forest and relax. Nothing I can think of. One of the best stays we have ever had
• Katrina (9/5): Superb - Beautiful spot in the bush, kangaroos outside the room each day, lovely bed and communal kitchen. Fabulous. There isn't any air-conditioning and it did get hot one night. Just something to keep in mind.
• Monteiro (10/5): Peace of mind - Amazing atmosphere and cosy accommodation Everything was perfectly put together
• Katlyn (10/5): Exceptional - I had a great stay at Island Alive! My ferry got cancelled the day I was supposed to arrive and I called the host letting her know, she was extremely helpful and kind and even refunded me the night I could not arrive. Would stay here again!
• Stacey (10/5): Exceptional - absolutely brilliant tranquil place nothing! it's all great.
• Sydney (8/5): A beautiful and peaceful getaway on Kangaroo Island! - Such a great location and property. Honestly my favorite part of Kangaroo Island was hanging out here! So relaxing being in the woods and hanging on the hammock with the wallaby mom and baby walking around. The common area is a big size and kitchen also is nice! Loved the gorgeous bathroom with the window ceilings. Also Amy was very quick to respond to messages and accommodating! I messed up and didn’t rent a car in time so everything was sold out, so I messaged her and the night before I arrived she was able to help me find something when everything online was sold out! Also when I had an issue with the WiFi and messaged at night she made her way over and began working at it soon after. Great recs too and super sweet lady. Thanks for everything! The toughest part about the property was there only being one bathroom. Even when there was only me and a couple on the property, I almost always had to wait. And the toilet and shower were in the same room, which is really rough when you need to pee and someone is showering! Other than that, highly recommend it here!
• Brodie (8/5): Very good -
