We had a lovely time visiting your beautiful island and staying at Pavilions was wonderful.  Sheep out the front, kookaburras and koala's in the trees out back!!... amazing. 

- Ash, Ben and Ruby

Thanks for a nice cozy place to stay.  We had a great time in our short stay here.  Would love to come back with our kids one day... they would love it  Thanks again,

Dear Steph & Ben.  We have had a truly wonderful and relaxing time here at the beautiful Pavilions.  We particularly appreciated the little touches which made our stay so much easier - the fresh milk and eggs when we arrived, the collection of music and dvd's and especially the childrens games, books and toys.  Our 3 year old and 18 month old children couldn't wait to get back to "our home on Kangaroo Island" after the days adventures!  This is a beautiful and special place - thank you for sharing it with us.

Dear Steph and Ben, thank you for a fantastic relaxing and fun-filled week.  This place is wildlife heaven.  We have seen so many koalas, kangaroos, echidnas, possums right at our doorstep.  The kids have had a fantastic time with the sheep and feeding the gorgeous baby calf.  Your accommodation is like a home away from home and is a wonderful place to escape the city.  Thanks again,

Dear Steph  Thank you for providing the well presented cottages for our stay in KI - what a truely beautiful place you live.  I love the deck.  It was nice to wake up to kookaburras, sheep and cows.  We heard the koala's at night but unfortunately did not catch glimpse of them.  Thanks again,

Dear Steph & Ben, We really enjoyed our stay in your lovely Pavilions very much and, except for the weather, everything was perfect.  If we ever come back again we definitely would like to stay here again, too.  Thanks a lot for all the little extras that made our stay so special.  The toybox, dvd's, eggs...

We have had a great time.  Enjoyed your accommodation.  Great to sit on the verandah in the evening with a glass of wine.  Travelled to most of the island Park venues, only problem was the road to Cape Borda.  Thanks

We really loved this house and its location where we actually spent our last days - that is, the last days of our Australia visit.  Our boys (2 & 1) especially loved the toys.  Tomorrow we'll fly back towards Europe.  Thanks very much.

- Josine, Rutger, Michiel & Teun, Netherlands

Great location for a relaxing two days.  The house is wonderful.  You've really thought of everything.  Our 2 year old loved resting in the hammock.

- Andrew & family, Melbourne

What a fantastic spot to holiday in.  Kangaroo Island was a very special part of our SA stay.  We all loved the house and its location.  Morning walks were very pleasant with many kangaroos joining us.  Our nine year old was in heaven and wished we could stay here.  Thanks again for all the little extras provided and the great location.

- Donna, John & Andrew, Marie and John

We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay on KI.  Thanks for pointing out the koalas in the trees.  We were very excited to see them.  We so enjoyed the natural surroundings of your lovely holiday home as well as all the wonderful amenities that you so thoughtfully provided.  The two days that we spent here will be a very special part of the time we spent in Australia.  All the best.

- Pete and Diana (California)

Thank you for the use of your wonderful cottage.  We have loved our 3 nights here.  It was always nice to come back and relax on one of the many decks - always possible to find either sun or shade!  Seeing a koala so close in the creek trees was a real treat.  Regards and very best wishes

- Neil and Gillian Chell (UK)

We had such a wonderful stay here on KI and at Pavilions.  Such a great base and a lovely place to return to at the end of the day for some peace and quiet.  In particular we really appreciated all the toys/books and the swings.  Our kids had a fabulous time and it's the first place we've found where we were able to relax with our 18 month old as she had plenty to occupy her - and that is a challenge!  Much appreciated and we do hope to be back again one day soon.

- Cara and Alex

Feb 2010

Thank you for a lovely stay.  We all felt very welcome including our little boy.  It was lovely to put him to sleep in such a well made little bed!  Thank you very much.

- Val and Ruth, Aliza and Paul and Zac

Very impressed with Kangaroo Island and enjoyed our stay at your lovely property.  Particularly enjoyed your attention to detail and all the little extras, ie good quality linen on the  comfortable beds, great to have the wok.  Lovely to sit out on the deck for breakfast, lunch and happy hour listening to the birds and the peace and quiet.  Not long enough! 

- Peter and Hazel (Victoria), Dave and Chris (Canada).

We are so happy that we found such a nice and peaceful place for the whole family.  Sitting outside, drinking beer and looking for koalas.  Everything in the house looks so lovely, like you made it for you and your family.  We too want to say thank you for a wonderful 3 days.  We'll never forget this, and maybe you'll see us again.

Thank you so much for such a beautiful accommodation.  Your house is lovely, nicely furnished and equipped.  Above all we have loved the peace and silence..and the possibility to "reconnect" with the stars".  Grazie

- Giorgia, Claudia and Russell

During this 4 days, coming back at the end of the day to the Pavilions was like coming back "at home" - we felt soooo happy here.  We couldn't wish for more than that.  We really appreciate all the little things done with "love".  If only we could return....  Thanks a lot and hugs,

- Stella and Irene, Switzerland

You have obviously considered what you would like to holiday in and turned around and provided it to those fortunate enough to discover it.  The "home" is extremely well appointed and provisional and provides the perfect launch pad for a KI odyssey.  It would take an extremely miserable mob to have anything short of a fantastic stay at Pavilions.  Thanks for having the vision to provide such a wonderful holiday home.

- Gerard, Julie, Jack & Riley - Brisbane

Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your wonderful Pavilions.  It is such a relaxing place and we're very sad to be leaving.

- Ben & Christie

Dec 2009

Wow, what an awesome surprise to see this place... the nicest place I think we have stayed in all our travels in Oz.  Lovely high quality furnishings and kitchen, and real coffee!  The Christmas Tree was a really nice touch.  So many little details have made our stay that much more memorable.  We will surely recommend to our friends.

- Mike & Mireille, Brisbane/Canada

What a superb spot for this holiday accommodation, we could all live here.  We loved watching the koala and drinking Aussie wines outside.  This place has it all... Greetings from

We have had a wonderful time showing KI off to my UK family.  The Pavilions was a perfect place to come back to each night.  Thank you for all the extra's.  It has been a great stay and we will recommend you to our friends.

- Liz & Mike, Red Creek SA

Everything excellent, super location, koalas in trees, loved it all thank you.

- Margaret & Bob, North Wales UK

Steph & family, thank you so much for slotting us in at last moment.  It was an absolutely fabulous couple of days being here, away from 'cosmopolitan' Kingscote.  Did the sights, they were good, but we agreed that the little B&B was the jewel in our holiday crown.  We'll definitely be back with the kids!  10/10. 

- Gary & Kelley, Adelaide.

We have found Pavilions to be a delightful spot - loved cool mornings by the billabong watching the ibis and a family of ducks and thanks for laying on the kookaburra and koalas too!  Only thing missing was a jolly swagman!  This will definitely be on our list of places to return to.  Thanks

- Helen, Adrian, Mike, Pat, Tom

We enjoyed our 1 and a half days on KI very much.  It was too short!  It's a shame we have to leave.  The Pavilions was perfect, so was breakfast.  Thank you for everything.

We have stayed at three different houses on KI - this is our favourite.  Light, bright, great set up.  We enjoyed the decks and their views - followed the sun!  Lovely personal touches.

Thank you very much for a great place to stay.  Fantastic location, central to everything.  The kids (2 and a half, and 15 months) loved the toys and DVD's.  It kept them well entertained.  Especially loved seeing the creek right next to us...very peaceful.

Thank you so much for a wonderful stay.  Everything is so luxury.  Thank you to the best Mom in the world for working tirelessly every night to find such a beautiful accommodation.  Plus I don't want to go back to Hong Kong because it's so much fun in Australia (KI).

"Georgeous accommodation!  Lovely lounge and kitchen area - felt like home away from home!  Very relaxed and comfortable.  Beds were THE most comfy beds ever and we all slept in!!  Saw a kangaroo and a possum and heard emus and koalas - but they stayed well hidden!  Thank you so much.

- Charlotte and Martin (Adelaide), Sarah and Neil Sunley (UK)

"The Pavilions" the perfect country hideaway on KI and so stylish and comfortable.  Rain on the roof, sheep out the front and koalas in the creek.  Even a visit outside our bedroom one night by the ? possum.  Thank you for creating such a relaxing spot to stay.  A shame it is so far from Sydney.

-  Diane and Rick, Sydney

"KI is fabulous, beyond our expectations.  The accommodation was perfect.  Lovely and modern and the beds - the best we have slept in outside of home.  Thanks".
