We had a really nice stay at the cabin! Very clean, and it had all the extra bits and pieces you could need eg oil, paper towel, etc. The kitchen had all the utensils / crockery / cookware you could possibly want. It was really cosy with the fireplace! We had kangaroo visitors to the back door

Nature's Embrace - Pelican cabin was a perfect chocie for our family holiday. The house itself was clean and well provisioned with linen, towels, salt/pepper/oil and small appliances for convenience. Our stay was made very comfortable by the air conditioning and very comfortable beds. The extra convenience of having wifi, a smart tv, board games and even wireless charging stations made the stay extra pleasant. Location was perfect! Close to Penneshaw and fairly centrally locates in the middle of the island so Kingscote and Vivonne Bay were still fairly close. And loved sharing the space with some wild locals who enjoyed lounging outside our cabin and raiding the bins. Our host Liam was great with communication and made sure to check in regularly to make sure we had everything we needed to make our stay complete. Couldnt have wished for more.
