Yelki by the Sea is a heritage beachfront stone cottage with wooden floors, rugs and a lovely living area with a fireplace and armchairs. There are 2 bedrooms and a modern bathroom.

Yelki Bed and Breakfast is located 2 minutes' walk from Encounter Bay where you will find Yilki Store as well as The Beach House Cafe, where you can enjoy a gourmet pizza or curry. It is 15 minutes' walk along a pathway to The Bluff and towards Petrol Cove, Kings Beach and Waitpinga Cliffs. It is 8 minutes' bicycle ride to the town town centre and 33 minutes' to Port Elliot.

This cottage is a piece of history. Forget staying in modern, bland surroundings, it is a wonderful experience to stay here. Our friendly hosts shared stories of the cottage, the days of early Encounter Bay and the lives of the people who lived here. The cottage has been lovingly restored, and you will find absolutely everything to make your stay comfortable. We received a lovely welcome card, chocolates and wine on arrival. There is so much to do around the area and a restaurant and general store 5 doors down the road. The gardens of Yelki by the Sea are beautiful and the location is perfect, right opposite the beach with views of the Bluff. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

The guest house features a flat-screen TV. The kitchenette is fitted with a microwave, a toaster and a fridge and there is a private bathroom with a hair dryer and free toiletries. This guest house is non-smoking and soundproof.

Very private space as part of a bigger property, gorgeous gardens, well appointed and very considered space (a blanket to snuggle under, good crockery, sound-bar etc). Brilliant for morning walks and you can hear the sea as soon as you step outside.
