The property was amazing, lots of little well thought out touches made it super comfortable and homey. The popcorn machine was fun (I ate way too much!)

    Encounter Bay is beautiful, quiet and peaceful for a nice relaxing weekend away. Watching the sunrise over encounter bay from the studio apartment was amazing. Local deli always providing great coffee and snacks and the cafe on the lake providing an amazing big breakfast!

    A quiet and peaceful location.

    A quiet and peaceful location. Can recommend Wood coffee roasters in Victor Harbor for coffee and breakfast, they had friendly staff as well. For a delicious A La Carte restaurant try Whalers Restaurant in Encounter Bay, you won't regret it. Eye Fillet to die for.

    Encounter Bay is the charming, quieter neighbour to Victor Harbor. Whilst the pubs and accommodation in Victor may get rowdy, Encounter Bay is definitely the place to go for peaceful relaxation. The views from the Bluff are absolutely stunning, I could have sat and watched that view for hours. Sunsets are incredible! There aren't a lot of activities to do here, unless you are into fishing, bird watching, or have a boat. But it's close enough to Victor Harbor to travel into town multiple times a day if you wish (just 10 minutes). There are a few restaurants to choose from in Encounter Bay if you prefer to walk somewhere local.

    Really great spot. Top restaurants with good staff.

    Really great spot. Top restaurants with good staff. Chef at Whalers is a gem!! Good parking facilities at The Bluff and premises well maintained. The Linen House Outlet was a real find!!! And Woolworths had freshly made sushi for sale - great steak - and fresh salad vegetables. Good range of dairy produce. Marvellous antique/secondhand shops at Yankalilla.
