Aalen Beach House is located on the seafront at Kingscote, the heart of Kangaroo Island
Situated 1.6 km from the town centre and directly on the foreshore of Nepean Bay. The house is modern and has large living areas , with the front deck stretching the width of the house overlooking the sea . The beach is just a few steps away. The house has 3 queen bedrooms to accomodate up to 6 adults and a bunk room for 4 kids. There are 2 separate lounge areas, both with flat screen TVs, to ensure there is ample space for everyone to relax in. The kitchen is fitted out with modern appliances and faces the open plan dining and living area leading out to the front deck.

A large spacious family friendly house where you can enjoy magnificent views over water sunrises, relaxing strolls on the long beach, swim in the safe waters of Nepean Bay and soak up the natural fauna and flora .

Very impressive house with full frontage onto the ocean, heaps of room and very clean. We had to book in a day early and leave a day late because of ferry cancellation's and the hosts were very accommodating which was a great help.
10.0 / 10.0
The house was exactly what we hoped for. We loved being able to wander down to the beach and being only a short drive from town. We appreciated the portable cot and the early check in so much, thank you.

We stayed at Aalen Beach House for 7 nights.
Aalen had everything we needed, including garage parking for our vehicle and our bicycles.
The views across Nepean Bay are lovely and we enjoyed being on the edge of Kingscote in a peaceful location.
The shared path (bitumen sealed) in front of Aalen follows the shoreline and is a real highlight of the location. The path also provides safe easy access by bicycle to Kingscote (4 Km return).
Kangaroo Island and Kingscote:
We travelled in May, which is out of peak season, so we didn't encounter much traffic on our travels.
Kingscote is a good base for longer stays on KI.
Some locations on KI only have access by unsealed roads, we found most of those to be in superb condition allowing safe driving with our SUV.
Kingscote is the largest town on KI. The pubs and cafes are good.
The local supermarket has everything you would expect and priced are basically the same as on the mainland.
Fuel prices on KI are up to 20% higher than the mainland.

We stayed here for our honeymoon! Absolutely perfect for what we needed, especially considering we were travelling with our busy toddler. The house is in a good location, right on the beach and short drive to Kingscote. Very central location. Would definitely recommend this place to others, and would stay here again ourselves! Has a garage for your car, kids facilities (high chair, kids table and chairs…), has the necessities for a stay to feel like home! 10/10 from us 😌

We arrived on a 42C degree day, and were thankful that the air conditioner had been switched on to cool the main living rooms. Luckily it cooled overnight and bedrooms were comfortable with overhead fans. Deck overlooking the water was lovely to spot pelicans and sea birds. Kitchen was well equipped for cooking at home. Small Weber Q BBQ was good for us 4. Communication was excellent with thd thoughtful owners.

We loved our stay at Aalen Beach House. The property is extremely well located with superb beach views and a lovely balcony. We had a lovely time looking out for birds and other activity on the beach, and wandering along the beach exploring.
The house is very thoughtfully kitted out with everything that you need for an enjoyable stay. Absolutely recommend.

Big house for two! Very easy check in process and upon entry the view of the ocean is just spectacular! Bed was comfy and all you need for cooking is in the kitchen.
Thank god for working WiFi which did work perfectly for us especially my partner still working on the trip. Only weird thing that didn’t work was en-suite shower with hot water.. no matter how long you let water run no hot water but other shower was fine! Plus we didn’t want to waste water so just used other.
I was telling friends we must come back again with our babies and kids as house was just lovely!

This house is perfectly located at the beachfront with ample parking and all the facilities you could wish for. The five of us loved everything about it including location, facilities, spaciousness and the Smart TV. The kitchen was very well equipped and the outdoor balcony area just perfect. Would definitely stay here again.

Many thanks to Paul & Jen for the stay in their lovely bungalow. There were only two of us, but the house can easily suppport a couple of families. The main living area is the centerpiece of the house, with floor to ceiling windows and sliding doors onto the balcony with views into the Bay. Highly recommended. Neale & Debbie

Plenty of room for a family group, very clean and comfortable. Space for peace and relaxation. Direct beach access to a stunning part of KI really made this stay excellent. House is well equipped with all the necessary items required, although my family decided there were too many great places to eat out so didn’t cook once - I call that a true holiday!

Nothing to report. Unable to get to the accommodation account ferry cancelled on the day of travel. I understand there is a cancellation policy and by not arriving it could have been booked by someone else but no one else would have been able to travel either.

Our stay at Aalen was beyond our expectations. The house itself is well laid out and beautifully appointed. The bedrooms were all of good size and beds very comfortable. The views from the kitchen and living area out to the beach were amazing and a large outdoor table on the front deck made it so easy to relax.
Jen and Paul were terrific hosts, easy to communicate with and quick to respond when we had a question.
We would highly recommend this property and are certainly intending to return in the future.
Rick and Mandy.

We had a fabulous stay at this perfect home. Fantastic location with such magical views of the water. Loved all the sunrises whilst enjoying a morning cuppa on the verandah. Very well equipped home. Would recommend this home for anyone visiting the island.
A small bit of long life milk to make that 1st cuppa when we arrived would have been appreciated. Thank you 😊
