Island Alive is a nature-inspired retreat just 15 minutes from the Penneshaw ferry terminal and 20 minutes from Kingscote Airport. Our location offers the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience - surrounded by forest and wildlife, yet close to shops and cafés.
Lovingly handcrafted by our family from repurposed materials, the property was designed with minimal impact on the environment in mind. The retreat is fully self-contained, featuring three bedrooms sleeping up to six guests, two bathrooms, two flushing toilets, a dishwasher, and air conditioning in the main living space.
Dinner and breakfast hampers are included in your stay, or you can choose to self-cater at a discounted rate - just let us know.
Island Alive is just a three-minute drive to the famous Island Beach and offers private access to Pelican Lagoon Conservation Park, with walking trails and unique wildlife encounters. Our forest is a highlight - providing cool shade and protection in summer and a magical carpet of moss during winter.
Guests enjoy unlimited access to our forest wellness facilities - a steam sauna, wood-fired hot tub, and invigorating cold plunge. In summer, the hot tub is cooled and becomes a tranquil forest plunge pool, inviting you to retreat into shade, stillness, and refreshing calm beneath the pines. In winter, sink into the comforting heat of the sauna and hot tub, letting the steam rise around you as the mossy forest glows green and quiet. A year-round ritual of balance, restoration, and connection.
