    The mice ruined what was otherwise a beautiful cabin. Some control over neighbors respect for privac

    There are mice in the cabin which I could hear at night and woke to evidence of them getting into dry goods eg nuts, biscuits etc. mice dung present. Needs addressing ASAP. Also since the cabin is about relaxation I was very disappointed that neighbouring guests were flying a drone… I suggest banning them. Also when I arrived same neighbors had music blaring very loudly which completely destroyed serenity of the location…. Suggest you address in advertising that it is not a party place and music needs to be quiet.

    The location and design of cabin was great

    The location of this property was amazingly private the cabin itself was cosy but luxurious and well appointed. The bath on the balcony and sauna made a lovely addition to our stay. Breakfast items in the fridge made a hearty cooked breakfast.

    The place to stay when visiting Kangaroo Island. Well located and you won't want to leave.

    There was no where to put our suitcases of clothing so we had to navigate carefully over them to get into bed as the hanging space was limited but that's a travellers life ;-). The drainage in the Sauna made things a little slippery upon exit but we worked out how to direct the water runoff from the coals into the shower drain... I also would have loved an ice tray but instead froze water bottles to keep food cool whilst on the road. We also could not locate the BOSE speaker advertised. We recommend perhaps having a shader on the deck and a cube side table next to the outdoor bath to place devices or a cup but truly we wanted for nothing and did not want to leave.

    The welcome food basket was a lovely touch. Thank you :) We had no difficulty hot spotting our data WIFI from our phone to our devices to do some work and loved being partially off the grid. We saved down google maps to our phones to navigate around the island which is a must tip for other travellers as the data range is limited on many roads. We took an ice bath on the deck after purchasing $6 bagged ice from the local service station near the ferry and took a hot sauna afterwards which made the place feel like a true health nirvana. We laughed each morning at 7 am when the black raven pecked at the door like an alarm clock checking out its own reflection...don't worry we did not feed the wild life. We gazed at the stars from bed each night though the skylight and collected shells from the private beach below us and tried to be home to watch the magnificent sunsets each day. I have stayed at the Southern Ocean Lodge and now at CABN and they are both 5 star locations of preference when visiting the island.

    If possible to handle waste separation would be perfect.

    Wonderful place to stay and to connect with the beauty all around. Never got tired of the view. Luxury accommodation, very clean, very helpful and friendly staff. We really appreciated the local delicacies. Thank you!

    My only negative was we got absolutely scorched by the sun in the bath - forgot sunscreen too! Might be an amazing touch to leave some sunscreen in there. Thankyou!

    CABN exceeded all our expectations. The location is secluded and serene, the local produce provided was a surprise treat and the amenities were very much appreciated. The Cabn itself was so well designed with multiple bath tubs, sauna and even a gas fireplace.
