Private Holiday Homes in Kangaroo Island Council

"Clean rooms, basic bedding, kitchen utensils underdone (no paring knife, no potato peeler), kettle slow and very noisy."

"Good"

"We enjoyed every moment! The tent was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed to make our visit amazing:) A beautiful setting and very well maintained grounds. We got to enjoy breakfast on the deck with the Wallabies. Perfect experience to add to the Island. "

"Disappointing. While the hotel is in the process of being extended and refurbished, that did not include the room we stayed in which although spacious and clean was in need of an update. The hanging space and vanity were tiny, especially for such a large room. Eating out options at American River for dinner are extremely limited. Dinner at the hotel was expensive and service not to standard. While the staff were unfailingly polite, helpful and doing their best they were under resourced for the workload. Apparently, a tour bus group had checked in for that night. "

"Everything was spot on."

"We live in hotels now and we can honestly say that this is one of the nicest places we've stayed in this entire year. Loved the architecturally designed space, great views of the sea, and the proximity of native wildlife. It was quiet and relaxing to stay here. The host was attentive without being obtrusive and gave us several suggestions about where to eat and what to see. Highest of recommendations -- a real jewel."

"We had a wonderful stay at Lyndoch Motel, but what truly stood out was their exceptional kindness and service. We are a family traveling from Singapore, and unfortunately, we left a mobile phone behind in our room after checking out. The team was incredibly helpful — they went the extra mile to search for it, kept us informed, and promptly let us know once it was found. What touched us the most was that they arranged to send the phone all the way to Melbourne, our final stop — and did not charge us a single cent for it. This level of honesty, generosity, and genuine care is truly rare. We are deeply grateful for their help, and they turned a stressful situation into a very heartwarming experience."

"Great location and staff, but the hotel rooms are not very clean. It needs a serious deep clean and carpet replacement. "

"Nice room with a stunning view..."
