American River is a bit out of the way, and KI Lodge is almost as far as you can go before the road ends! We had a superior King Bayview room, which had a nice balcony, 2 decent beds and was tastefully decorated. Its features include tea and coffee making facilities, a fridge, an iron and ironing board, and a room safe. And thank you to the hotel for the “welcome gift” of a bottle of wine and cookies; very thoughtful! There is an a la carte restaurant and a bar, which served food. We chose the latter and were quite happy with the selection of meals available. It has a marked walk in their rear grounds, which we did, and were lucky to see glossy black Cockatoos in the wild. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful. Also, it's only 40 mins to the ferry, so very convenient.

We cannot fault anything about this beautiful lodge. It exceeded all our expectations. The room was spacious and had a great water view. We enjoyed watching the dawn breakout every morning. And the sounds of birds all around us. The breakfasts were excellent. The restaurant was very good too. We had dinner there a couple of nights. We cannot say enough about the wait staff at breakfast and dinner. They were simply great; friendly, efficient, informative and all round fun to converse with. Special mention for "Yuki". The location was good too; nice walks close by and easy road access to Penneshaw & Kingscote. We highly recommend K.I. Lodge.

We recently enjoyed 2 seperate short stays on the same trip. We were left really impressed by the very friendly staff and the location. The restaurant is also top notch. We managed to spot 5-6 koalas one evening in the trees in the streets adjoing the property. The property itself has a great aspect, looking out over Eastern Cove on Kingscote Harbour, which is inhabited by adundant. A special call out to staff member, Yuki, who supplied some fish and took us down to the water's edge to feed the pelicans and pacific gulls that come to her call. Very special.

Great place to visit kangaroo island. Very nice location, very close to wildlife. The staff were extremely accommodating, and the restaurant and breakfast crew were very nice. The rooms are a bit old, but everything is very well looked after, and cleaning is top notch. The pool is great for some sunny afternoons, and for those travelling with kids. We wished we had stayed here during our whole visit to kangaroo island.

There were two meal areas, the restaurant which was a la carte and the bar which was typical bar food. Both were above average. The room had wheelchair access, as did all the main areas, (not necessary for us, but good to have) and was exceptionally clean and well appointed. The view across the lagoon was amazing and watching sunrise each morning was fantastic. Staff went beyond to be of assistance.
