Sea Loft Kangaroo Island

Recently renovated & refurnished, Sea Loft is the ultimate boutique accommodation on Kangaroo Island. Sea Loft is situated on a private 5-acre property that borders a Native Vegetation Reserve. Sea Loft offers expansive sea, bush & pastoral views whilst situated only 5 minutes from the largest township, Kingscote. Sea Loft encapsulates the best of Kangaroo Island's scenery coupled with an abundance of native wildlife at your doorstep. Enjoy daily visits from friendly kangaroos, wallabies & echidna.

Sea Loft offers a variety of sleeping arrangements for up to 4 adults and 2 children. The master bedroom upstairs offers a queen bed with luxurious 1000 thread count sheets. The unique jarrah timber sky walk connects you to the second bedroom/sitting room with a day bed that converts to a single bed and an additional single pull out below (suited to children only). Downstairs, the third bedroom has a double bed. Warm yourself in front of the Nectre wood fireplace in the cooler months with firewood provided to all guests!

Please note that the two upstairs bedrooms feature walls for privacy, but both are open air (no doors). The bathroom is located downstairs. If privacy is preferred, Sea Loft is well suited to a romantic couples escape- enjoy the seclusion of the whole house to yourself!

Sea Loft is discreetly tucked away and nestled into the bush, but still within easy reach to the island’s largest township Kingscote. Kingscote offers a variety of restaurants, cafes, supermarkets, shops, brewery and wineries- all within a 5 minute drive from the property!

The house is mere minutes from Bay of Shoals boat ramp, Bay of Shoals Winery, Kangaroo Island Brewery, Kangaroo Island Spirits, local honey supplier Island Beehive as well as stunning Emu Bay beach. It serves as the perfect base to explore both the east and west ends of the island, or as a quiet setting to simply sit back and relax. With the boat ramp only a short distance away, enjoy fishing on some very reliable and favourite spots around Kingscote and beyond.

The island’s airport, with hire care rentals, is only a 10-minute drive. The Sealink ferry terminal in Penneshaw is only a 45-minute trip away.

Sea Loft is designed to be a secluded, private escape. We will have minimal interaction with guests to ensure privacy. We are always available to contact via phone or email should guests require anything. Sea Loft offers keyless entry via a PIN which will be disclosed in the lead up to your stay. We can be contacted at any time as required.

Due to Sea Loft’s semi-rural location mobile phone reception can be limited for some network providers (Telstra is the most reliable provider on the island). Netflix and local TV stations are available on both TV's along with unlimited Wi-Fi access to guests.

Beautiful accomodation
Only a short drive from the Kingscote town and so peaceful with a lovely view of the trees and ocean (from upstairs). It has absolutely everything you could possibly need including washing powder. The hosts were so responsive and provided lots of useful information. Being a loft, it probably wouldn’t suit light sleepers upstairs if you want to continue watching tv etc downstairs. Our kids who were sleeping upstairs woke if we even tried turning the bathroom light on downstairs, but we knew this might be the case being a loft and we made it work. Very much recommend it for a stay.

Beautiful place to stay
We brought family from overseas to KI and stayed at Sea Loft. What a wonderful place to stay. It feels like you’re in the middle of the bush but it’s only a 5 min drive from the town centre. Some kangaroos visited us whilst eating breakfast on both mornings. Everyone enjoyed their visit. We will definitely be back

Beautiful place ina secluded yet convenient location
Beautiful and spotlessly clean place near kingscote. It is conveniently located but also still secluded enough with a beautiful view to enjoy your remote holiday. We saw some roos on the property as well as a wallaby on the first day we arrived (although after the storm, they did not come back for the subsequent days). The host was quick to respond to all of my messages and provided excellent recommendations. They also have a well organized booklet for recommendations, house rules, emergency procedures etc. 100% enjoyed our stay.

Sea Loft is amazing! Better the the pictures on the website. It is cozy and comfortable. It has an amazing water view from the second floor. The property has an excellent amenity list including board games and Netflix, perfect if you are stuck indoors due to heavy rain (it happened to us for 2 days). This Sealoft cottage is definitely one of the best accomodations we have stayed in. Also, if you are going to Kangaroo Island by ferry, try to book the ferry with Evelyn at Kingcotes Travel (recommended by Sealoft). She is the most efficient travel agent we have ever come across and price is cheaper than booking direct with Sealink.

Not really appropriate for 4 adults
This was a wonderful property and would be very romantic for a couple however not really 2 couple suitable . The second bed was a sofa bed and not overly comfy. But otherwise the house was great. Very clean and beautiful view from the top deck. The tree near the bottom deck could use a trim. Watching the wildlife come up close to the house was also good. The fireplace makes the house beautiful and warm very quickly.

Lovely place to stay, really cosy with everything you need during cooler months. Love the kangaroos coming up to the house each morning, the cosy combustion heater and the quietness surroundings. However not sure I’d stay during the warmer months due to no aircon and high ceilings.

Great location for being away from it all, yet close enough to Kingscote
A gorgeous getaway amongst the trees. The place is quiet, secluded, simple but beautifully presented. The beds are comfortable, the bathroom/laundry were well equipped with a washer/dryer, a walk in shower portable ironing board and good iron. The kitchen was equipped simply but adequately, and was very clean. Plenty of beds, a couple of TV’s with Netflix, a great verandah to enjoy the birdlife/wildlife, and a little lounge/dining area with a fireplace should the weather be inclement. ( Just a note that entry to the house required one step up onto the verandah. Also the house is situated on a bed of limestone rocks- the driveway is great and easy to access, however, there is no garden as such- but it is pretty fantastic being surrounded by bushland!- I love the cubby made of sticks!) Kingscote Centre is about an 8 minute drive. We had efficient message-only communication with the host which gave us all the info we needed. The keypad lock is simple to use. The only slightly negative comment is-speaking as a someone who is 160cm, the bathroom sink is a little high to reach. Children will need a chair. The bathroom is on the main floor, but the nicest bedroom is upstairs- which might impact some people. On a positive side- how wonderful to hear the Stone Curlews and Mopoke owl calling during the night! A great stay, thank you!

Beautiful, serene and great location.
Beautiful property. Modern, well designed and homely. Beautiful location with a remote bush feeling but yet so close to Kingscote, Emu Bay and other attractions. We had 3 adults (separate beds) and 1 child. The downstairs pull out is probably only really suited to kids though.

Sealoft is a stylish property in a great location. The house itself has some really nice spaces. Love the concrete floors & high ceilings. The view from the upstairs deck was a great spot for an afternoon drink or dinner. Wildlife is abundant including Kangaroos, Wallabies & Echidnas. An easy drive into Kingscote for dinner, Emu Bay for breakfast & KI Brewery for a drink. Central location for touring the island. Communication from the property manager was average. Overall a great stay however & would certainly recommend.

We loved the location of this stay and enjoyed watching the kangaroos and echidnas in the evening. There was enough equipment in the kitchen to cook basic meals. Communication was great with thorough check in details and we appreciated the list of suggestions throughout KI. The only downfall we found was that the beds were not very comfortable but we would still consider staying at Sea Loft again for the great location.
