I recently spent some time at the Kangaroo Island Seafront and was thoroughly pleased with the experience. The tropical cabin was surrounded by lush gardens, creating a peaceful atmosphere perfect for our anniversary getaway. The only downside was that the distance to local attractions meant a bit of travel time, but the overall experience and value made it worth it. The dining was delightful with a lovely view of the beach, although I would have preferred more variety in the breakfast options.

The hotel has its ups and downs. While the views are breathtaking and the breakfast is outstanding, the overall cleanliness and condition of the rooms leave much to be desired. The staff were friendly and accommodating, but the maintenance of the facilities and dining options could definitely improve.

The room we stayed in was clean and relatively modern, but it felt a bit awkwardly laid out, and it was in desperate need of a deep clean. The balcony was filthy, which was disappointing.

The staff was polite and helpful, especially when we needed assistance. However, it was inconvenient that the reception closed at 8:00 PM, which left us without support for late-night issues.

Breakfast was one of the best meals we had on the island, and the dinner at the restaurant was also superb. However, there were limited options outside of that.

The pool area was nice, and there was a laundry area available, but both appeared neglected, which was a letdown.

I had a unique experience during my four-day Luxury Escape Glamping adventure at Seafront hotel. The tent was quite charming and well-equipped, featuring a comfortable queen bed and a lovely ensuite. The breakfast provided was delightful, with a great selection that really filled the belly. However, there were some challenges with noise from the wind, loose sheets that didn't stay in place, and a few minor issues with the tent not being serviced properly. Overall, it was a memorable stay with room for improvement.

I enjoyed the breakfast options and the beautiful views from the dining area. However, I found the shower pressure a bit inconsistent, which was a little frustrating. Overall, it's a great place for a relaxing holiday on the island.
