Two properties, one calendar

Booking direct is cheaper than anywhere else — three nights or more takes 15% off at both. If your dates are gone at one property, check the other before you give up on the Fleurieu.

How the money actually works

At the time of booking

50% deposit plus a 2% booking fee confirms the booking. If you are booking within thirty days of arrival, the full amount is taken then.

One month before you arrive

The remaining balance comes off the same card. Make sure it is still valid — this is the step people forget.

No bond

Naiko does not hold a bond. Your card is only charged afterwards if something is damaged or the house needs cleaning beyond the ordinary.

If you need to cancel

More than 30 days out, a $100 administration fee. Between 29 and 15 days, 50% of the booking. Inside 14 days, the full tariff. Travel insurance is worth it on a booking made this far ahead.

Visa, Mastercard and Amex accepted. Read the full terms before you book — by booking you are agreeing to them.

Not sure which one suits you?

Call and ask. Someone who has stood in both buildings will answer.

Plotted from real coordinates, so the bearings and the distances between points hold. The coastline is deliberately not drawn — approximating the shape of a real place and presenting it as a map is how maps start lying.

Two houses, one coastline

They are close enough that people do both in a week and far enough apart that they are not the same holiday. The Retreat is at the end of the peninsula with the last six kilometres unsealed. The Villa is ten minutes above Victor Harbor, with a bakery, a pub and a beach in walking distance of the car.
