Not sure if we were just unlucky with our particular villa plus we never saw the well reviewed/friendly/helpful owner - maybe away? just an unfriendly young woman who never said Good morning nor made eye contact each time we saw her - she never smiled. . Offered no conversation upon arrival with help at where things were nearby. Villa was pleasant but a couple of minor cleaning issues. Especially bathroom basin & shower grout. A bottle of spray & wipe in kitchen would be good. Complimentary breakfast a nice gesture & appreciated. Bedsheet was ripped & pillows were a joke - so thin & old. Everything was a good size except tiny lounge room . Other residents were noisy at times in evenings. We still enjoyed our stay due to its location, great parking/garage & no stairs. Sad about the small things which affected our review.

Could have, should have stayed longer.

My wife and I treated ourselves on Kangaroo Island by staying at the Villa's on the Bay at Kingscote. We had four night's in villa (5) and everything was perfect. The location of the villas is handy to the shops, hotels and eateries etc. Our villa had it's own full kitchen and laundry with everything in good working order, a garage for the car and an outside area to relax in. Kingscote turned out to be a good base to tour the island from. Well done to Brian and staff for turning out such wonderful accommodation. We can highly recommend Villa's on the Bay at Kingscote for an island stay.

Modern villas.

Our villa would accommodate 4 people. There were only 2 of us and we struggled with the bathroom/toilet arrangement. One room with shower, toilet and handbasin. Very tricky when trying to be ready to leave at the same time. Also lighting over the handbasin was quite dim. That made it difficult for applying make-up. Noisy neighbours were a nuisance on a couple of nights, partying until 4am one night. (Not guests at the Villas)

Warm welcome with everything we needed

Warm welcome on our early arrival. The accommodation was spacious with everything we needed for a very comfortable 2 night stay. Easy walk to the town centre of Kingscote. Day trips were easy due to its location on the island. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would stay again.
