Doyles on the Bay

Everything was perfect. The venue amazing, the island a treasure and the host accommodating.

A.M.A.Z.I.N.G! This house was just incredible. Yeah it’s a bit daggy in places, but it was absolutely perfect for our family group of 11 ranging in age from 11yo - 75yo. A full commercial kitchen with every possible cookware, gadget, crockery, cutlery, glassware, appliance - BYO groceries and you’re set. So many activities for all incl pool, heated spa, darts, pool table, lounge areas, bar, even your own beach and koalas in the gum trees! This house made our KI holiday absolutely unforgettable! 5stars, totally recommend!

I booked this house in the first week of school holidays for my children and their families to stay. A big family holiday. House is brilliant and provided an amazing entertaining areas that work well for large groups. Craig the groundsman is very helpful and met us when we arrived, gave a tour of the house, telling us how things worked etc. He also came back to help when phoned, topped up the wood for indoor fire when it turned cold and other little things that made the whole experience fabulous. He is a great source of information and went out of his way to make the stay enjoyable. Highly recommend this house.

The large house was ideal for our group of 12. Both inside and outside there were plenty of separate areas for small groups to enjoy. The huge inside dining table and several others on the deck provided for great family get togethers at meal times. All bedrooms having ensuites made for easy living. The swimming pool, spa, sauna and 8 ball table were all well utilised. Craig the caretaker came every second day to check that the spa chemicals were operating correctly. Some of the equipment in the commercial kitchen (particularly the knives) need upgrading. Overall a wonderful setting for our family holiday on Kangaroo Island.

Our stay was really great. The caretaker, Craig went out of his way to make sure that all 16 of us were comfortable and had what we needed. Unfortunately for us and Craig, our stay was right in the middle of much needed renovations. He explained that painting and other renovations had started the month previous to our stay but the house was as clean and comfortable as he could make it for us. It’s a beautiful property and I hope he is able to make the changes necessary to bring it up to its potential. The Greens
