Accommodation
on Kangaroo Island |
 I travel to Kangaroo Island during the year from Adelaide many times, working
with the Tourism operators on Kangaroo Island. I usually photograph an updated Tourism accommodation property, or maintain
computers I have sold on Kangaroo Island.
I am very happy to give my
personal recommendation for accommodation on Kangaroo Island to
Acacia Apartments at Kingscote.
Your host there is Deidre Morrison, and the apartments are modern & very well fitted out 4 & 1/2 Star, first class accommodation for sure. |
