Enjoy 4-star accommodations set in tranquil gardens on Kangaroo Island, just 1312 feet from the Sealink ferry terminal. Seafront Hotel Kangaroo Island offers a sauna and an outdoor swimming pool.

Large rooms which were decorated well. The room was clean and the cutlery/glassware provided were a pleasant surprise (specifically the wine glasses were full sized and this was a stark contrast to other hotels previously stayed at). Noise was minimum and the location is great.

    Penneshaw was easy access from Sealink so we made that our base and travelled each day to various locations. We drove to Kingscote but there didn't appear to be anything open, so whether it was because of the time of year. Glad we chose Penneshaw. Not able to comment on the other places as we were limited in time to visit.

    Penneshaw was great.

    Penneshaw was great. Quiet and close to ferry and food options. When you get off the ferry you think there is not much here but look around the side streets and you find many options. It is only half an hour to Kingscote and to the main tourist loop. We had kangaroos at our door each morning and the view of the water and ferry going up and down was lovely.

    Penneshaw has a beautiful safe beach, skate park and playground plus hikes for the more adventurous. There is a small supermarket for anything you may need to be self sufficient. Otherwise there are 2 hotels and 2 cafes, all providing eat-in or take-away food as well as a take-away food shop. We were there in January.

    The ocean views from the apartment were amazing.

    The ocean views from the apartment were amazing. The apartment was well equipped and had everything we needed. It was not far from the ferry terminal. The IGA supermarket is walking distance from the apartments and also was easy to get around the island in our car for gin tasting, wine tasting and a visit to the honey farm.

    It was close to the ferry and great local food. Great home base to get to all the sights. The little penguin night tour is excellent. People were wonderful and friendly. Great beach to walk along and swim in close to accomodation. Millpond where we stayed was excellent 5 star property for us we would stay there again and recommend it. Great views from the Millpond. We stayed for 8 nights.

    It is a goodvidea to do your research beforehand and plan your trip. We wanted an overall look at the island itself and to eat out occasionally. We achieved our goal in five days some long and some short and with built in rests. Other people may want to participate in activities and there seem to be plenty of options. Although it is an island highlights are spaced so be prepared fir lots of driving whatever your choices. And look out for the native animals

    Great hotel, it made for a great base for my stay on Kangaroo Island. The room was really comfortable and spacious, and the balcony was a particular treat, with views over the ocean and back to the Australian mainland. It had all the things I needed for a comfortable, self-catered stay, and I particularly appreciated the use of the shared microwave in the common area. The local IGA supermarket is a short walk away, as is the ferry to the mainland, and the island's Little Penguins come ashore in the evening right opposite the hotel.

    First, the positives: Fantastic location close to everything you need in Penneshaw. We stayed in a family bell tent, which was a cute and unique experience. The tent had plenty of room and the sheets were nice and some furnishings provided to make it comfortable. Also like the raised deck and table outside. It was also a short traipse to the bathrooms. The Kangaroo Island Sculpture Trail and Penneshaw Penguin Centre is super close by.

    Very comfortable and enjoyable stay at the property. nice and quiet but still close to Penneshaw. The rooms were very clean and nice to sleep in. Perfect families. It had everything you could need to cook your own meals and all in a lovely aesthetic. Wish we could have spent more time here.
