This property has a number of different cabins, cottages and houses. It's not always clear from the photos which property you're looking at. I'd recommend to the owners to consider better labelling of the photos so that prospective clients can see what they're booking. And if you're a potential client, take care with the photos. You might not be looking at the correct photos for the accommodation you're booking. We stayed in a cabin. This is a transportable site shed, fitted out with a kitchenette and with a double bed and two single beds. It was clean and comfortable with basic kitchen fittings, pots and implements. The view of Emu Bay was lovely. The owner is very good with communication and gives lots of information. Emu Bay is further out than other locations from the main tourist attractions, so a bit more driving is required, especially to the south- west. Overall, we enjoyed our little cabin a lot and enjoyed Kangaroo Island immensely.

Amazing stay! Amani house was a wonderful place to come home to at the end of our long days exploring KI. The house is very well equipped with everything we needed to make our own meals. Our whole crew loved the walking labyrinth and yard games as well. Gardens were beautiful!! To top it off, the sunrises were stunning!

A Tranquil Oasis at Emu Bay Holiday Homes

I can confidently say that this was one of the most delightful accommodations I've experienced in my travels to 62 countries. From the moment I arrived, the owner's warm welcome set the tone for an exceptional stay. The personal touch of being shown to my small, impeccably clean apartment immediately made me feel at home. The attention to detail was evident throughout, with everything thoughtfully organized for the utmost comfort. What truly stood out were the considerate touches, such as the informative notes strategically placed around the apartment. One noteworthy suggestion was a creative way to conserve water by using buckets to collect cold water while waiting for it to heat up. The notes gently encouraged guests to water the plants outside with this collected water, reflecting a commitment to sustainability without imposing demands. The highlight of my stay was undoubtedly the breathtaking view, It's the kind of scenery that captivates your senses and beckons you to stay for days on end. While the price may be on the higher side, I found every penny well spent considering the exceptional quality of the stay.

Lovely peaceful location

Our cottage was small but extremely well-equipped. The host was very helpful with suggestions of places to visit and where to eat - including sending links to local places. Even letting us know where the closest koalas were (very close!) The location was lovely. Very peaceful, with distant views over the water. The closest town is 15 minutes drive, but it's easy to organise around that. I would stay here again.
