Fantastic Home Away From Home

My colleague and I have stayed here twice when we have been in Tumby Bay for business. The house is beautiful, well equipped and very comfortable. Jacinta was a great host and very understanding when we needed a late checkout following a change of plans.

A wonderful place to relax

The location is wonderful, overlooking the bay which was beautiful to wake up to. The house was well setup, clean and comfortable; the kitchen practicable and well equipped. We used the outdoor eating area as well as the front area which gave great views of the bay. The hosts, Jacinta & John were responsive and very friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Tumby Bay - with thanks to our hosts.

Lovely place to stay.

What a wonderful property. Stayed for a family holiday. The house was perfect for a relaxing holiday with the family. Plenty of room to spread out, lots of room for the kids to run around and the fish cleaning station in the back yard was ideal.

Perfect Location

We thoroughly enjoyed our Christmas vacation at the Jewel of the South. The location was perfect for our kids first summer Christmas. We swam every day, even with dolphins swimming nearby one day which was amazing. The house has everything you could need and is very well kept. We hope to come back again one day.
