Porky Flat Hotels

"The self-check in was a breeze, but our accommodation was the only one without a sign to point the way. But luckily it was in one of the front cottages so easy to find. Very basic room, but really close to Sealink ferry to KI. The frig in our room froze all our food overnight (and we got there after 7pm). Pillows were hard as rocks, but bed was fine. Their cafe is closed but they gave a great recommendation- the Cape Jervis Tavern. Recommend if you need a bite. Worst thing about our room was the black bugs in the bathroom- I counted 14 when I got up to use the facilities that night. Cleaned them up, made sure all suitcases were closed tight, and went back to bed. Sure enough more were there in the morning- although not as many. A couple also in main room. Gross!"

"Room and bed very comfy. Bistro had good quality and good range of food. Location is wonderful. American River is a sleepy little town and good location to see the rest of Kangaroo Island. "

"Clean and tidy very close to Ferry and the pub across the road has great meals."

"Clean rooms, basic bedding, kitchen utensils underdone (no paring knife, no potato peeler), kettle slow and very noisy."

"We enjoyed every moment! The tent was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed to make our visit amazing:) A beautiful setting and very well maintained grounds. We got to enjoy breakfast on the deck with the Wallabies. Perfect experience to add to the Island. "

"We live in hotels now and we can honestly say that this is one of the nicest places we've stayed in this entire year. Loved the architecturally designed space, great views of the sea, and the proximity of native wildlife. It was quiet and relaxing to stay here. The host was attentive without being obtrusive and gave us several suggestions about where to eat and what to see. Highest of recommendations -- a real jewel."

"Nice room with a stunning view..."

"Good clean facilities, but beginning to feel a little tired. Internet was very up and down - overall it has to be regarded as poor."

"Overall, we enjoyed our stay, however, at this price point, there were simply too many issues. The property was extremely dirty, every piece of kitchenware, cutlery, and glassware had to be washed before use. We tried contacting the property the day before our arrival to ask about food options but never received a call back. Additionally, the air conditioning didn’t work during our stay. On a positive note, the complimentary bottle of wine was a thoughtful gesture. That said, the property would benefit from providing robes, especially considering the outdoor bath and sauna. We were also surprised by the lack of privacy, from our balcony, we could clearly see into two other properties, and they could just as easily see us on the deck. "
