Stayed at Kianinny for 4 nights in September, the weather was gorgeous so we took advantage by spending time in and around the pool, canoeing in the lake and playing mini golf. The cabin was a good size and everything you could need was available such as kettle and toaster etc. Only downer was the fly screen door wouldn't stay closed so would bang in the wind, but we managed to prop it open and it was fine. Really loved our stay in the area, the local shops and restaurants were great, people were lovely and the beach was picturesque. Also travelled into Merimbula which was a quick drive and spent the day shopping and having lunch at the waterfront. Highly recommend

Quiet cottage in bush close to town

An overnight stay out of school holidays so very quiet. A large well equipped unit. Friendly and helpful staff. Veranda with bush views and nice walks around the property. Close to town and the beach but the sign is hard to see in the dark. If are a light sleeper and leave the heating on, you may be woken by what sounds like a truck at 5:30 am. It is just the cooling unit right outside the bedroom window so remember to turn it off!

The driveway down to the cottage was ridiculously hard to manage ..I am disabled. Also the security lights on surrounding cottages stayed in all night and made it impossible to sleep.

Best of both worlds and central everything else on Sapphire Coast. We (adults) loved stoking the logged fire in our cabin, walking around the grounds and enjoying the amazing bird and other wild life, aswell as the pool and canoeing. Kids loved the mini golf, Easter egg hunt, flying fox, archery, old school DVD and games. We all loved cooking on our cottages outdoor bbq among the trees (and resident Kookaburra), aswell as all the local beaches, lagoons and coves (including Kiannini where we fed the manta rays). Short drive to Nelson’s, and Cuttagee (spelling?) and Bermigui - we loved snorkeling and swimming at all of them (especially, Blue Pool). Dad loved the in Cottage pod coffee machine and specialty teas - really nice touch. Couldn’t recommend it highly enough.
