At the western side of Kangaroo Island, Kangaroo Island Wilderness Retreat offers a box seat to the natural wonders of this precious wildlife sanctuary, often described as a zoo without walls. Flinders Chase National Park is next to the Retreat with Remarkable Rocks, Admirals Arch and an abundance of walking trails all within easy reach by car.

The retreat staff provide touring advice, ensuring you make the most of this brilliant location. The Retreat has been extensively refurbished to provide guests with a comfortable base from which to explore the island. The feature accommodation are the Wilderness Courtyard Suites, with a private deck facing onto a natural bushland garden where native animals often gather in the evening.

Just a short stroll across the courtyard is the Retreat's restaurant, open for breakfast and dinner exclusively for guests. Local produce, fine wines and nocturnal wildlife accompany the casual yet elegant dining experience.
