Talinga on the Bay, Penneshaw

This 3-bedroom house sleeps up to 6 people with 2 queen and 2 single beds.
The billiard table has always offered a great opportunity for bonding or socializing with family or friends. Talinga On The Bay features floor to ceiling glass doors with spectacular views overlooking the beach, the Sealink passenger and vehicle ferry and mainland. Air-con, private courtyard, poolroom, and gas BBQ. The house has been renovated over winter 2023 so now boasts a new kitchen, two new bathrooms and new walls and flooring in the bedrooms -so fresh and clean.
Kangaroo Island is fresh air, pristine beaches, dramatic scenery and thriving native wildlife. Small tours, cycling, horse riding, diving, farming, walking and fishing all adhere to the rules of eco-friendly treatment. Walk close to wildlife. Delight in the abundance of wildflowers.
At Seal Bay an experienced interpretive guide gives you an insight into the lives of Australian Sea lions. Flinders Chase Nat. Park is home to the Remarkable Rocks, Admirals Arch and the Rocky River information center - go back in time looking for fossils. Fur seals, koalas, platypus, glossy black cockatoos, cape barren geese and of course kangaroos will welcome you to the park and keep you entertained along the many walking trails - many leading to secluded, isolated beaches.
Imagine waking to the gentle lap of the waves spilling onto the clean sandy beach, a refreshing walk collecting shells - possibly a nautilus, watching entranced as a pod of dolphins leap and frolic out of the water chasing after a school of salmon. A short walk takes you up to shops, fine cafes and restaurants or along to Baudin Conservation Park to spot some of our endangered wildlife.
The experience is here for you to enjoy!!!







The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 1.5 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fenced private yard, and a coffee maker. Housekeeping is available on request.

Main shower mixer.

Main shower mixer is reversed. Hot is cold and cold is hot. I wouldn’t want to unknowingly put a small child in there and select the wrong temperature setting.

Great location, close to everything

Deceptively spacious. Easily caters to a large family with two bathrooms, dining room and a games room. Great kitchen area that looks out over the sea and ferry terminal. Very comfortable accommodation and short walk into town and the beach. Highly recommend.

Ideal location

Myself and a work colleague stayed for 3 nights for work. Everything was clean and well set out. Very comfortable. We were working all day but nice to come back and relax at the end of the day. 2 bathrooms which is a plus. You can see the Sealink dock and leave. Didn't get to use the pool table in the end but maybe next time.

Amazing view in a top location

The sunrise coming up over the mainland each morning is a sight to behold & this property is situated perfectly to take it all in. The interior is nicely renovated and has all the conveniences of home such as dishwasher and washing machine. The pool table provides a nice break with non-digital fun and the back yard is conveniently enclosed for the dogs.

Clean, comfortable, well equipped property within walking distance of the IGA, the pub and the beach. The standout is the view over Backstairs Passage to the mainland. Just need some hanging space in the front room and a champagne stopper 😁
