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.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

The rooms are big, well equipped, comfortable and in a great garden setting with amazing views. It is a great base to explore KI. As it's a big island with lots to see and do, no one location is perfect but Emu Bay is easy enough to get everywhere and the room is great to come back to at the end of the day. The koalas and birds on the property were a treat. Would have given a 5 rating if there was a laundry (which we understand was being installed)
