Thank you for our wonderful stay! The cottage is beautiful and very well equipped. It stayed cool inside despite extreme temperatures outside and we all slept very well. Wildlife all around, beautiful to watch the wallabies cross the garden. And the beach, which we had mostly for ourselves, is just stunning! We will definitely be back. Thank you!

Secluded and peaceful. Ori our host was very resourceful and offered lots of great recommendations for our time on the island. The place was quiet, clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable family stay.

We had the most blissful, fuel recharging stay at Clearwater Haven! Travelling with two young cherubs (aged 2 and 4), we found the house perfectly set up for families — clean, spacious and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed. From kid friendly kitchen / dining & bathroom supplies through to the bedroom (our girls adored the sweet touch of the soft toys left on their beds for them to borrow & cuddle each night). All the house amenities and rooms were exactly as listed and described online. LOVED the very short walk to what felt like a private beach and the abundance of wildlife right on our doorstep. We honestly didn’t switch on the TV once during our 3-day stay as "nature & star" TV was just too good!!Ori was a wonderful host and provided some of the clearest and most helpful information and manuals we’ve seen. The location felt peaceful and remote without being inconvenient — just 20 minutes to Kingscote and around 30 minutes to Penneshaw, which was so manageable with young kids.Seriously didn’t want to leave and would happily stay again. Highly recommend!!

If you like wildlife away from the maddening crowd about 40 minutes from Penneshaw, this is the place.A few minutes walk to Nepean Bay and you have the place all to yourself. The host was impeccable. Yes, all the main attractions are a must see but don’t forget Cape Borda Lighthouse. Well worth a look, particularly it’s history.
