Oceanview Eco Villas

Overview

Main Information

Family-run and hosted by locals Tim and Tamsin Wendt, Oceanview Eco Villas rests upon 500 acres of clifftop farmland overlooking Nepean Bay on beautiful Kangaroo Island. Located mere minutes from American River and 20 minutes’ drive from Kingscote Airport, this property offers two eco-luxury villas each with two bedrooms and ensuites, offering a relaxing stay in comfortable solitude within the natural environment.

With your hosts’ family homestead only minutes away, guests will be immersed into nature at its most serene, enjoying exclusive access to a private beach and sheep-grazing farmland emblazoned with walking trails, with the surrounding habitat bringing wallabies, kangaroos, and the occasional echidna ambling right past your bedroom window.

Committed to self-sustainability and eco-friendly principles, Oceanview harvests rainwater and runs on a hybrid renewable power system of battery-powered solar energy. Built with locally sourced, sustainable supplies and recycled materials, the villas’ polished and timeless design combine luxury and comfort in renewable five-star accommodation.

Fully hosted with full course dinners, breakfasts, and drinks showcasing local produce, Oceanview has quickly established itself as one of the finest luxury stays available on Kangaroo Island.

Oceanview Eco Villas offers two luxury eco-villas, each with two matching bedrooms per villa for a maximum of eight guests. Constructed in coordination with leading eco-designers, builders, and interior designers using natural and recycled materials to create a holistic, timeless, and natural space to unwind within, Oceanview Eco Villa’s design reflects its off-grid ethos, using solar power and rainwater to ensure minimal impact is left on the environment.

Each bedroom comes with a signature Oceanview ensuite bathroom, featuring a large bath and bifold windows opening up to stunning ocean views and calming breezes.

Dining

Dining

Your stay at Oceanview Eco Villas comes inclusive of fully-cooked breakfast and three-course dinners prepared by a private chef with local produce, enjoyed either in the privacy and comfort of your own villa, or as a hosted dinner in the nearby family homestead with your hosts. Each meal is accompanied by a range of refreshments, including premium Kangaroo Island and South Australian wines.

Kangaroo Island is renowned for its wonderful food and wine and established producer scene, best discovered with insider access and local touring with Exceptional Kangaroo Island. Wineries and distilleries offering different island flavours exist within easy touring distance of your accommodation and can be included as part of a customised journey, while Exceptional Kangaroo Island’s Fine Flavours day tour provides opportunity to explore behind the scenes at a range of artisan Kangaroo Island producers specialising in oysters, honey, oils, and more. Alongside the wonderful casual lunch options available across the island, hosted culinary experiences form an integral part of a memorable Kangaroo Island adventure.
