À bientôt Seayu Lodge in American River, Kangaroo Island, Australia | Self Catering | Vacation Homes | Cottage | Self Catering Apartments holiday rentals

You are welcome at À bientôt Seayu Lodge, a single-unit bed and breakfast, providing privacy and comfort for two persons in American River in South Australia. Warm and cosy European-style design, with boutique character.

You are welcome at À bientôt Seayu Lodge, a property with panoramic views over the lagoon and the harbour, over the countryside, and over the larger island across the sea (the mainland) in American River, South Australia. It's a quiet place dedicated to peace and beauty, with big trees, singing birds, gliding pelicans and numerous wallabies hopping around. Here, one can dream, night and day, think, contemplate and meditate.

Guests have private access to their Lodge, which is separate from the hosts' house, as well as a private portico with pergola and garden.

The Lodge estate consists in eleven hectares of diversified Australia bushland, with wooded savannah park, a pond and a sheltered ravine with sun-lit clearings. It is endowed with majestic Eucalyptus cladocalyx trees and multi-centenarian Xanthorrhoea yacca grass-plants; it provides a refuge for a range of rare and charming animal species, including the echidna (an egg-laying mammal), marsupials such as the Tammar wallaby and the acrobatic brush-tail possum, as well as many species of lively birds.

Please note that as most of the domain is kept in a natural state it includes rough terrain in some places and potentially dangerous animals such as snakes or spiders, so visitors walk there at their own risk.

The whole domain provides a smoke-free environment - Australia is a bush-fire country. Accordingly, smoking is only permitted just outside the Lodge building, under the porch.

Our facilities have been designed as an adult retreat for discerning travellers. Access to the meditation room is free, and so are teachings of philosophy and Buddha-Dhamma provided there. Otherwise no proselytism.

Restaurants nearby (a 10 to 15 min. walk) provide meals. Tired and hungry guests can get from their hosts a snack consisting of Island cheese, olives, walnuts, bread and/or crackers, for a fee per person, as well as a glass of red or white wine.

Out of consideration for the local wildlife, and so as to preserve the quiet atmosphere, we regretfully cannot accept every breed and species of animal companions - please enquire. An additional fee per night applies for each four-legged friend. Please note that government health regulations prevent accommodation businesses from allowing animals inside.
