Good clean facilities, but beginning to feel a little tired.
Internet was very up and down - overall it has to be regarded as poor.

What a wonderful place!! So quiet, peaceful and comfortable! Our hosts were lovely and provided breakfast items and plenty of tea and coffee. The comfortable bed gave us good rest for our long days of sightseeing. The WiFi was extremely slow but we were able to bring up maps. It was good to be so close to Penneshaw and groceries and the ferry. Thank you for a memorable holiday experience! We highly recommend The Fig Tree BnB!

Nice kitchenette setup in room for coffee/tea and cereal. Milk/yougurt/fruit cups in minibar fridge. As someone with Celiac Disease, provided gluten free cereal and bread which was awesome! Then there is a shared kitchen for the 3 units where there is a fridge/freezer with supplies for breakfast plus a hob and pans if you want to cook your own meal. Sink and dishclothes provided too!
Bed is AWESOME! So tired of softbeds in hotels and this one is just perfect! After 4 weeks on a soft bed on a cruise ship and back issues, I finally slept through the night!
Very nicely laid out room and comfortable for 2 people.
There is a space heater too if needed - a little chilly right now at night so it was a nice feature!
Very clean room and plenty of extra blankets too!
Nice balcony to have morning tea on if not raining!
Thanks for the relaxing stay!

Lovely cosy country cottage..stayed here for a night after.our ferry was cancelled. Great communication from the host..great amenities..great range of supplies for breakfast and access to kitchen area if you wanted to cook anything. Much better than the motel we stayed in and for half the price. Do yourself a favour and stay here.

Great location on a great island

We have been travelling around Australia on an extended holiday and the fig tree was the best B&B style accommodation so far. Do take a stroll along the coast line which was lovely even in the rain. The optional evening meal (Local fish) was tasty and good value and was delivered to your room.

A convenient quiet location close to the ferry.

We picked this location for our final night on KI as it was close to the car ferry. Our host was friendly and helpful. The room was spacious, well appointed and the continental breakfast package included an ample start to the day. It is close to the water front cliffs which provided a pleasant afternoon walk.
