The beds and pillows were comfortable. Some of the maintenance was interesting. Staff were great although meal prices a bit expensive although guess products need to come from mainland. Food was tasty

Beautiful area. Great view of bay. Most staff outstanding. Only exception - male staff person at desk Friday evening was checking us out early as we were leaving before desk opened Sat AM. Tour leader for large group arrived, and rather than finish checking us out, he had the nerve to ask us to come back later after he finished with group. Fortunately, the visiting tour guide had some manners and sensibility and told him to finish with us first.

Very clean and easy check in/check out. Room was well sized and beds super comfy. Restaurants here were also the only place open for dinner in American River on some weeknights in the off season, so handy to be staying on site.

8/10 Very good

our room was nice and roomy. excellent bed and the room was well appointed with mini kitchen, charging pads for phones and huge TV. The view of the ocean was wonderful. It is in a remote area so we had long drives to go see activities. Food at the hotel was limited and the breakfast was expensive for what was available and was not great!.They encourage not getting the room serviced but did not say what to do with the rubbish that built up over 4 days.

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.
