We stayed 2 nights at Casuarina and it was a perfect. Ken and Kim are good hosts, Kim provided us all the info we need to explore KI. The unit is nothing fancy but has everything we wanted for a comfy stay. If you can watch sunrise at the lagoon nearby,plenty of beautiful black swans... We would definitely come back:)... More

From the other reviews of Casuarina units, it sounded like the perfect spot for us and I can tell you we were not at all dissapointed. It was perfect! From the first interaction to the last, Kim and Ken were immensly helpful and friendly without being intruding or pushy. One of the main reasons we went to KI was to... More

I took my Mum across to Kangaroo Island as I had not been there before and I wanted to show her something different other than our usual Barossa and Handorf outings. I wanted a self contained unit without a big price tag. This was perfect for us, it had a good size fridge and freezer which meant we could keep... More

My daughter and I stayed for three nights and found it suited our needs perfectly. It was budget priced but was cheery, comfortable and homely. It was much nicer than staying in a park cabin. We were able to keep food fresh in a large modern fridge/freezer and use the small stove top and microwave to prepare our meals. The... More

When our family travel we do it on a budget and I am becoming tired of places that begrudge everything they provide for you. Casuarina is the opposite, everything you could hope to find in accommodation and providing extras that places far more costly don't. Plentiful linen and artisan soaps as well as large quantities of small wrapped bars, spacious... More

We spent two nights here - which we thought was enough to cover the main Kangaroo Island sights. The location is perfect - and is close to all of the Kangaroo Island attractions, especially if you have rented a car (you really have no other option on Kangaroo Island). The island itself only has approximately 4000 people so staying in... More

We spent 4 days staying in these units with our children. My parents also had a unit next door. We found the units well stocked with cutlery, pans etc and plenty of blankets. Kim explained the highlights of the island and had suggestions for eating out. The children were please to find a small playground. As you need to watch... More

We had never been to Kangaroo Island before, and though we were expecting a rustic atmosphere, we were a bit surprised at the lack of amenities...heat being one! I'm sure the CC units are more pleasant in the summer season, but with one small space heater to heat 2 bedrooms, it was a long four night stay. Color scheme was... More

Dear Reviewer Thank you for taking the time to post feedback. This July on Kangaroo Island, was indeed cold and had some of the coldest daytime and nighttime temperatures for some years. Additional heaters are provided when requested but are not kept in the rooms as space is an issue. There are lots of blankets provided in the cupboard for... More

We have never had such accomodating hosts. We stayed three nights in the budget friendly Casuarina Coastal Units. The location was perfect for planning/launching our sight-seeing adventures during the day and a safe, quiet place to rest/sleep at night. Ken and Kim offered keen tips on places to eat, provided fishing equipment to help entertain the children, gave us goodies... More
