Kings Beach Retreats

Top choice in Fleurieu Peninsula


On a spectacular rocky promontory 10km south of Victor Harbor, these three cottages – from one to five bedrooms – are sublimely positioned. A sense of isolation is what you're paying for here: the ocean collides with the rocky shoreline, whales cruise by and petrels circle overhead. The architecture combines rammed earth, huge recycled jetty timbers and broad view-capturing windows. Marvellous!
