The location is stunning. Stokes Bay Beach is gorgeous, as is nearby Snelling Beach. It is roughly equidistant between the East & Flinders Chase so although you need to drive each way, you can decide what to do based on the weather. Owners, Paul & Katja, are very friendly & quick to respond to any questions. Very quiet& peaceful. Lots of wildlife at your door. Kitchen hadeverything we needed. A lovely place to stay

I absolutely loved this place. It is right above/next Stokes Beach, which was voted best beach in 2023, and has some of the best sunsets I have ever seen. When you have breakfast, kangaroos are hopping everywhere around your window (if you prefer to eat indoors). There are koalas in the trees a bit further and at dawn the wallabies come out. The owners make sure you have everything and even let us hand feed the kangaroos. I really enjoyed the silence of nature at night, this was my best sleep on my Australian travels (amazing blanket and pillow as well).

Nothing we did not like just a suggestion that it woulld be a geeat addition to have a comfy chair / lounger on the verandah.

Location, location , location. Just stunning. Cabins were well equipped. Check in was easy.

The road in was very rough but doable going very slow. It was worth it for the great stay.

Loved the views and the wallabies. The cottage was clean and comfortable. The beach down the road was lovely.

Going back to Victoria!!! 🤬

Both loved our 3 day stay at Waves & Wildlife cottages, peaceful, beautiful views surrounded by wallabies ( no people 😄 )😉👌. 1 minute drive down to Stokes Bay Beach which is superb ♥️. Just loved the tranquillity of the Island. 👏

Not a big deal but the driveway coming in is a bit rough and could do with a scrape and a smoothing.

We had a wonderful stay. The cottage was very comfortable, well decorated, clean and in the most amazing location. On a cliff top overlooking a most excellent beach and the sea. In fact, in our opinion, we would say that this is the best beach on the island. Sad that we couldn't stay longer. As a bonus, this area is a hangout for over 40 friendly kangaroos and a small mob of sheep. So much fun to see.

Beautiful location with views over Stokes Bay and the countryside. The wildlife and birds were wonderful. There were many kangaroos all day onsite and many wallaby's at dusk.

If you like quiet relaxing places near wildlife this is the right choice! The ocean, the view, lots of kangaroos, lots of stars on the night sky!

Heating can be better. Reverse cycle air con would do better job with efficiency as compared to air heaters

Amazing location, sea view with plenty of wildlife

Incredible place, the wildlife and the scenery made this stay unforgettable. The cabins themselves were nice too, spacious and comfortable with everything you need - even a coffee machine! It was quite cold when we were staying but the heating in the cabins worked well and blankets and dressing gowns were provided which was a great touch.

All fantastic

The location was stunning. Cottages overlooking the ocean with kangaroos hopping about. The name describes it perfectly. Generous gift of wine, honey and chocolate left by Katja and Paul. Such a lovely welcoming touch.

No restaurant or market around the vicinity.

You get to see stunning view in front of the cottage with wallabies jumping around; very clean and spacious cottage with all kinds of kitchenware ready. The best part is the owner will feed the wallabies in the evening, guest are welcomed to feed them as well. We enjoyed the stay a lot.

We had a wonderful time. The kangaroos were direct at our cottage. The view was awesome. The kids got food to feed the kangaroos and they could hold a snake or lizard. Thank you for this amazing adventure at Kangaroo Island.

Communicating before and once booking was made and immediately prior was tricky. The booking.com internal messaging was not responsive and not property’s fault. Off line communication not effective either.

Loved the facilities and ambience. Comfort was wonderful. Well looked after property.

The unit has everything we need with magnificent views and many wild wallabies around the house in the evening. We loved everything there 😊
