Descubra sua estadia em Penneshaw

Friendly staff. Gorgeous glamping tent, really spacious and comfy bed. Nice location. Kitchen however only has microwave, fridge, toaster and kettle. Outdoor BBQ. Showers were cold but I only showered late in the evening so possibly could have been hot first thing in the morning.

Don't be fooled by the photographs on this hotel's website - it's probably best rated as a 2-star. The good: close to the ferry terminal. Rooms are spacious with tea / coffee making facilities and toaster. All rooms overlook the sea with a balcony. Free, self-operated laundry facility on-site. Parking available on-site. Check-in efficient and friendly - staff helped with luggage. The poor: Penneshaw is at one end of Kangaroo Island which means a long drive to get anywhere else. No lift to rooms on first floor. Reception is not manned 24-hrs. Thus a fire alarm at 5am went unanswered until a staff member arrived from elsewhere. Breakfast choice is limited for the inclusive breakfast (if you choose B&B) - you can only have one of tea or coffee or an orange juice. No buffet; order your choice from the kitchen bar. Gluten-free bread is available. The hotel has a restaurant - again order from the kitchen bar, Note that one day a week the only food available is pizza. This was problematic for a gluten-free diet. After some difficult discussion the chef offered to prepare a risotto which was actually very tasty.

Although this hotel is too average by domestic standards, I personally think it is the best choice on the island. A reminder should be added that guests must purchase ferry tickets to and from Kangaroo Island in advance to check in and check out. Thank you to the Ctrip specialist for your great assistance, otherwise the ferry tickets to the outlying islands would not be resolved👍
