What a great little hideaway from reality! The nature and surrounds were just incredible. Great little cottage although our stove and oven didn't work well or at all on some occasions, and this proved a little difficult as there are no surrounding cafes or restaurants. I completely understand its been a tough few years for all though. We would definitely return. Many thanks Katja and Paul, you are wonderful hosts.

Well kept cottage with the most amazing views of the ocean and local wildlife from the deck. Very easy booking, check-in experience and just a very comfortable and relaxing stay.

What a stunning experience! I loved waking up to so many kangaroos and dragonflies each morning, walking down to the beach and having a coffee at the rockpool cafe. Paul & Katja were great hosts and the self contained unit was just perfect for our needs. I would definitely recommend!

We liked it very much for the location n wanted to give 5 star as everything was so ready/provided. But 2 issues I have to mention, the toilet lock was not working/ in useable and the windows blinds- all are broken . The towels are very old too, Need to change ASAP. And the second issue was the smell from the swears. We stayed at number 7 and the bio swear system is just 30 metres away… every evening probably all the units using the shower and toilet then the smell comes out. Please don’t stay at number 7. Other than that all the cutleries, pots , pans , plate , glass everything is Perfect. Giving 3 out of 5 but we Will come here again.

The combination of the house and the surrounding was perfect for us. The terrace with its view is fantastic. The amount of kangaroos and the possibility to see them so close was overwhelming.

Lovely piece of paradise
We stayed at a 3 bedroom cottage as the single rooms were all booked out. The cottage is large and more than sufficient for our needs. The living room and dining areas are very comfortable. The kitchen is fully equipped and there is even a barbeque grilll on the patio outside. The owners, especially Paul, were very kind and was a great help to us when our power adaptor died on us and we desperately needed to charge our phone batteries. But the best thing is the wildlife and beautiful scenery that surrounds the place. The name Waves and Wildlife describes the place perfectly. We received nightly visits from the possums and are greeted every morning by kangaroos. The view is lovely, especially at sunset and sunrise. Worth waking up early for. And do visit the beach and the rock pool. The water was so inviting, we would have jumped in if not for the cold. It was the perfect break for city slickers like us. Just be aware that the place is quite remote, so the internet connection and mobile phone lines are quite patchy and may not work at all in the cottage. But we were able to get a signal on the hill in front of the cottage and we could use the phone provided in the cottage to make landline calls within Kangaroo Island. We would definitely stay here again if we return to Kangaroo Island.
