We enjoyed our second stay as a return guest in April. We were entertaining our guests from overseas with their first Down Under visit. Waves and Wild life didn't prove wrong. Our friends were stunned to see such an amazing spot. It is an absolute gem. This was our fourth visit to the Island and a consecutive stay at WW.We... More

A friend and I stayed at Waves and Wildlife for two nights. We just loved it. The cottage was well-appointed, attractive, comfortable and very private. The view was spectacular and we enjoyed our sun-downer on the deck watching the sun go down and watching the kangaroos feeding. Katja and Paul were friendly and welcoming hosts who went out of their... More

We really enjoyed our 3 night stay. The accommodation was clean and well appointed. The evening parade of Wallabies, Kangaroos and other wildlife was a joy to watch from your private deck. Stokes Bay Beach is the jewel in the crown, FANATASTIC.

This place is amazing. We stayed in one of their cabins for 5 nights and we were surrounded by kangaroos the whole time. The cabins are almost luxurious and very private. Stokes Bay is one of the prettiest beaches in the island and we also loved the walking distance cafe. I'm probably sure there is no better place to stay.... More

A million dollar view of the sunset and ocean, with wild kangaroos roaming freely in front of the cottage. A great rock pool and beach is just couple of minutes drive from the cottages- perfect for swimming even for kids. Kitchenette is also well equipped with microwave and stove. Only downside is that cottages are not equipped with air conditioning... More

This was our second stay at Waves & Wildlife after many visits to Stokes Bay with friends, and we would rate this as our best holiday on KI in many years. The cottages are as clean, comfortable, well-appointed and well-positioned as always, but this time we were delighted to see how much the casuarinas had grown. Not only do they... More
