Location of Yelki is perfect. The cottage was exceptional. The owners Sue and John were super friendly and helpful. Staying there felt like a warm hug. Even though your having a holiday it felt like home.

Beautiful setting, cosy cottage, with lovely facilities. Hosts were lovely. Enjoyed learning about the history of the home

There was nothing to dislike. Our hosts were friendly and helpful but otherwise unobtrusive, and Sue showed us around and told us about the history of the place. All fascinating stuff.

The location, right on the beachfront, was perfect. Restaurants were close by, and the larger towns of Victor Harbor and Port Elliot were only a short drive away. We appreciated the little treats left for us (wine, chocolates) and loved the evidence of the place's age - the thick walls, casement windows, the old wood stove in the kitchen, slightly uneven floors. It all made for an experience rather different from that of most b&bs. The character of the building was a drawcard in itself.

Beautiful location. Great hosts who gave personal recommendations for places to eat and found family connections. On leaving, my husband said "We'll be back".

old places are harder to keep warm ! open fire, electric blankets and a few small electric heaters helpful.

excellent location, and loved the historical aspect of this property. easy to head off for walk to The Bluff, grab coffee and snacks or an evening meal - all on foot. open fireplace and front verandah provided happy places to sit and relax.

We loved our stay at Yelki by the Sea. We loved the amazing location. The gorgeous, historic cottage was beautifully decorated, warm and well equipped with everything we needed including little extras such as bikkies and dip, wine and choccies. We felt right at home . It was so nice to go to sleep hearing the sound of a crackling fire and the crashing of the waves. Sue and John were so friendly and helpful and were generous in sharing the history of the property. We definitely want to see their faces again. ((;

Yelki was just amazing. our two hosts Sue and John couldn't have been friendlier or mor helpful. We loved everything about our stay from the ginger snap biscuits to the fantastic location, to meeting an original founding member of one of Australia's all time great bands, The Angels - Just perfect
