Aldinga Beach House: Relax by the sea
Great location, peaceful and quiet. Right next to national park land with Kangaroos hopping down the street. Easy walk to the beach. Accommodation was well equipped with everything you could wish for and the spa was fantastic. Really enjoyed our stay and would love to go back soon

Adelaide CBD with cozy, quiet and secure living
This was my second time staying at Cathy’s place, and once again, it was a great experience. The apartment is in a very convenient location — just a short walk to Chinatown, with easy access to shops and restaurants. Cathy is a wonderful host; communication was smooth and she responded quickly to any questions or requests. The check-in process was easy, and the apartment was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for a short or extended stay. I really appreciated the thoughtful touches that made the space feel welcoming. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and highly recommend it to others!

'Askara' Harmonious Family and Friend's Getaway
We had a quiet and comfortable night. The host was very warm and polite! The room was beautifully designed and very cozy. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. We’d love to come back if we have the chance.
Luxury Oaks Horizons Apartment with a Pool
Trudi’s place is the perfect city HQ for events at the Adelaide Convention Center across the street. We could walk and catch the free tram to the South Australian Museum, Adelaide Botanic Garden, Adelaide Central Market, great restaurants, and more. It was wonderful to have a full kitchen, laundry, and beautiful space to return to each evening. It is well thought out and very clean, and Trudi is so friendly, responsive, and welcoming. We highly recommend!

Studio One Crafers
I booked this accommodation for my mum for her 70th Birthday gift. My mum was very happy with the attention to detail and how homely the place felt.

Moana Esplanade - Beachfront Townhouse
Lisa’s place was perfect for our family of 4 getaway. Located right on the beach with gorgeous views of the sunset and 10 minutes drive to the McLaren Vale winery. The beds were really comfy and the living room spacious. Lisa was a perfect host

2 Bedroom Beachside Lux in Oaks Pier inc. Car Park
Great apartment in a wonderful location. Helen was very helpful and responsive when there was an issue with the washing machine.

Cobblers Cottage Bed and Breakfast
Historic cottage perfect for a weekend away. The continental breakfast provisions meant not having to buy basics which was super handy. Loved the location and local restaurants.

Mariner’s c1866 Little Scotland
The cottage oozed character and is tastefully renovated. The wine and and chocolate biscuits on arrival was such a nice and welcoming gesture. The garden and entertaining areas were pretty and so peaceful and I loved the added extras like the tree chair swing to enjoy my morning coffee sitting and relaxing watching the birds. Our dogs were happy too! The location is exceptional and it was so good to be able to walk wherever we wanted to go, restaurants, cafes, brewery and even the supermarket! I will definitely be back.

Close to Beach, delightful Normanville house
Our party of five adults had a relaxing and comfortable stay. House was spacious, clean and well equipped in a quiet location. I usually take extra tea towels, paper towels etc but I didn’t need to as Eleonora ensured we had everything we needed and more. The complimentary bottle of wine was a thoughtful and very much appreciated extra! Eleonora is a friendly and responsive host and I would highly recommend a stay at her holiday house. We will definitely be back.

St Peters Cottage. Tranquility in a great location
A great place to stay for a family. The hosts provided a portacot which was a really good one since usually the ones provided can be flimsy. The kitchen had everything we needed. Quiet street and car park in the driveway. Easy self-check in instructions and responsive to communications during stay. Heating very effective for colder days. Be aware of the unlocked glass cabinets with delicate items if you have little curious people, but there is plenty of space for them to play, including a small courtyard and short walk to a playground. 10 minutes to Walkerville shops and access to buses directly to the CBD. 20 minute drive to Tea Tree Plaza so great location overall.

Melba's Place
Great little get away for the family and fury friend. Lyn’s place is exactly as she described. If your after the home feel and just just a nice comfy place to rest your feet while you sip on a wine and unwind with pup underneath your feet this is definitely the place you should book. Couldn’t have picked a better place to stay.

Family Delight, Three bedroom home
Great home! I stayed there with my 2 greyhounds for 8 days while I was attending a hockey tournament. It was a great location - 15 mins drive to state hockey centre. Backyard was perfect for the dogs. Three great sized bedrooms inside and nice lounge room. Had everything I needed.

Christies Beach Exclusive Townhouse
Sally’s communication was great and easy to get into touch with. Check in instructions were clear and simple. The townhouse is located within walking distance to shops and to the beach. Great location, including pet friendly.

Skipper's Retreat - And Bring Your Dog too!
A lovely homely place to stay, very accommodating for our dogs to have a fun morning and night before bed in the dog trailer. Very helpful and responsive hosts

❤️Beach Front❤️Amazing View☀️Deck✅Netflix✅Cafes☕️
First time staying at this property, but like other properties of Lucy’s they are managed extremely well. We look at availability of Lucy’s before other AirBNBs. Stunning views, amazing location and dog friendly for the fur baby. Beautiful property which we would happily stay at again. Hosts are very responsive and thoughtful leaving basic groceries for our arrival.

Contemporary Golf Course Frontage 3BR
We were delighted! Such a great place to say with wonderful views. Our puppy Ollie loved his stay too!

Stylish Adelaide-fringe guesthouse
We had a great stay at Tim and Karen’s - the guest space is private, easy to access and very spacious. Location is a beautiful suburb just outside of the CBD area with easy access into the city. Would 100% recommend!

Oakbank B&B Retreat
What a great place to stay. Old, but clean and specious with everything you would want including home grown tomatoes and homemade fig jam. the gardens, unfortunately affected by the drought, are great. We would have loved to see them in their full glory. The owners were great also and promptly top us up with a couple of items we were running out of. We would certainly stay again.

Sleepy Cat B&B: Spacious house, central loc, pool
Our group had a fantastic stay. We enjoyed the pool and use of the projector. We enjoyed the space greatly and highly recommend to all. All communication was greatly appreciated. Thank you for having us. We would love to return again.

Sky High on Grote 2BR Staycation CBD Pool Gym
highly recommend to everyone and would definitely stay again!! the inside of the apartment was very clean and nicely styled with all the essentials to have a relaxing stay! it was in an ideal location with lots to do within a walking distance. Jessica was extremely friendly and prompt with her replies but also provided very detailed information in regards to checking in and checking out.

Semaphore Beach & Pool - Perfect Family Holiday
We chose this property based on its location, size and the fact it had a large pool for the kids – it did not disappoint on any of these. Location was great for us, albeit a little further out of the city but our priority was to be close to the beach and as it was only one block away, it was perfect. The property is about a 15min walk from Semaphore centre which has plenty of amenities, small supermarket, restaurants and shops and with Henley beach less than a 10 minute drive away, there are plenty of options. The property has lots of space, the four bedrooms were a good size. The living areas were substantial as were the outdoor areas. The property would benefit from some cosmetic work, some paint was peeling off in some areas but this did not detract in any way from our stay. We would certainly stay at this property again. A big thank you to our hosts ☺️

The Cremorne Street Coach House
fantastic space to get ready for my wedding. thank you SO much to the lovely Josephine xx

Serene on Grenfell 2BR Staycation Pool Free Wifi
Great location, this apartment is a block away from Rundle Mall so getting supplies was easy to do. The host was very responsive and the check-in instructions were very straightforward.
