What’s not to like about a private, well designed house in a scenic location with ‘Roos and wallabies outside your door.

John United States of America

Excellent new beach house that has been very well designed. Spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The location is mind blowing. The beach below (although you cannot see it from the house) is long, wide and stunning.

Michael Australia

We loved everything about this place. It is incredibly well appointed and set up with lots of love and attention to detail. The location is amazing with stunning views over the countryside on one side and after a short walk up the dune a wonderful view over Emu Bay. We will definitely be back

Judith Australia

Private yet within reach off top class KI amenities

Ruth Australia

Beautiful house in KI, very clean, well cared. A place to relax and enjoy of the nature. The wildlife there was amazing, we have kangaroos and other animals visiting us every day. The hosts were really friendly.

Yolanda Australia

Loved the location, the view, the wildlife, the seclusion & the off grid house! Will definitely be back one day 💙

Emma Australia

It was a stunning location with fantastic views from all windows. We had kangaroos and other wildlife hop past our windows. The house was modern and clean 😊

Nicky Australia

Cosy and very comfortable, beautiful views from the dune top, so peaceful and relaxing, looking forward to visiting again soon!

Christine Hondow and Brian Vanner

A Dune Escape is located on 15 hectares of natural bushland providing habitats for kangaroos, wallabies, echidnas and prolific bird life. Walk just 30 metres from the front decks to a private panoramic sea view with patio facilities for relaxation.

Brian and Kris have travelled extensively with the knowledge to provide a quality holiday accommodation. Brian is a retired customised tour guide of the island so has extensive information to share. We greet all our guests to give personal attention.

Emu Bay provides a 5 kilometre white sand beach with crystal blue waters for swimming, snorkelling, jetty fishing or just relaxing. Diving with dolphins charters are available. Kingscote is only 15 minutes drive for all major tourist facilities.
