“We were lucky enough to visit Naiko once more, and enjoyed lovely walking weather, many dolphins enjoying the aquamarine waters, kangaroos, sheep, birds… beautiful skies and astounding views across to Kangaroo Island. Naiko is such an easy and comfortable escape from the city we could easily imagine ourselves staying for much longer.”

“Secluded paradise with the most spectacular view of KI. The private beach is delightful and the amenities are well-appointed. Bucket list item ticked off for sure!”

“By far one of the most beautiful and well-presented properties I've stayed in.”
Guest reviewQuoted by Sirvoy, January 2023
“As far as complete seclusion, privacy, and incredible views go, Naiko Retreat is hard to beat. Perched high up on the Fleurieu coastline, with only kangaroos for neighbours, time slows down and you breathe a little deeper here.”
