We loved our stay. Brett was really welcoming and caring, everything was clean and super comfortable. The place was well set up, had everything we needed and little extras like sounds system or the verandah with the sound of nature and birds. It was very relaxing stay and we will come again when coming to KI.

Bretts Nest Nel WOW what a place Close and convenient to Kingscote, KIBrewery, the town and Emu Bay the list goes on It was peaceful but lovely to hear the blue wrens singing in nearby bushes Chase Brett's dog was fun to have around as I was missing mine It was clean and comfortable with everything we needed after a long drive from WA The projector screen was a highlight and amazing to watch the tennis final on it had great speakers to listen to our music from Brett was a friendly, respectful host who would have gone out of his way if needed to make our stay there perfect I look forward one day coming back to sit around the fire and take time to look at the stars Karee

The location was great for exploring the rest of Kangaroo Island.

I recently stayed at Brett's Rest Nel accommodation with my two young children and best friend during the school holidays. Unfortunately, the experience fell short of our expectations. The lack of air conditioning made the house unbearable during the scorching summer temperatures. Despite an earlier check-in, the sweltering heat made it impossible to find respite inside. The provided cooler was insufficient, and we were advised to use it sparingly. Privacy was compromised due to the owner's permanent caravan being located within 10 meters of the cabin. It felt like we were constantly being watched. Additionally, the neighboring cabin further diminished any sense of privacy. Cleanliness was a major concern. The property was not adequately cleaned, leaving us feeling uncomfortable. The blinds did not work, and there was an exposed window in the kitchen facing the owner's living quarters. Furthermore, I found it inconsiderate that the owner knocked on the door at 9pm, despite knowing that we had two young children, one of them being an infant. This disrupted our evening routine and caused unnecessary disturbance. While there were some positive aspects, such as the owner's friendly dog and the property being advertised as pet-friendly, the lack of a fenced area required us to board our dog at a veterinary clinic. In conclusion, the uncomfortable living conditions, lack of privacy, inadequate amenities, and the inconsiderate late-night disturbance overshadowed any positive aspects. Potential guests should be aware of these shortcomings before booking. The owner should address the issues mentioned to improve the overall quality of the property for future guests. Regrettably, I cannot recommend Brett's Rest Nel accommodation based on my experience. I hope this review serves as constructive feedback for the owner to make necessary improvements.

Peaceful , rural, quiet, clean.

There was only one thing that bothered , as oldies, greatly, the mattress was too hard, we ached all over.

The outside fire pit was wonderful. We enjoyed sitting around it with a drink after a hard day sightseeing. It's such a lovely quiet location so you can breath in the relaxation. If outside isn't your thing then there's a fire in the inside/outside area just waiting to be enjoyed along with the sound system and lights while you make a drink at the bar. If we return to KI we'll stay here again and have recommended it to friends.

Having to leave

The location and being dog friendly was perfect for us. I loved every moment of it! star gazing and a nice toasty fire to keep you warm! didn't even turn the TV on once we were just too busy enjoying the peacefulness.

Like it all one off the best places I've stayed at

Fine

The track in maybe could be better
