Recently we had the pleasure of visiting PWERLE Aboriginal Art Gallery in Hackney, just minutes from Adelaide’s CBD — and what a beautiful and moving experience. The stunning Aboriginal artworks immediately capture your attention, but it’s hearing Jade Torres share the stories, meaning and family connections behind the works that makes the experience so memorable. Many of the pieces have been created by members of Jade’s extended family, and her passion for family, art and bu

Blue skies, clouds reflected on the water, nature all around — and beautiful Adelaide right there in the background. Sometimes a photo says it all. If South Australia has been tempting you, perhaps it’s time to start planning that visit. When you stay with Adelaide Style Accommodation, you can settle in and enjoy your own private home, with local knowledge, genuine South Australian hospitality and the reassurance that we’re only ever a call or message away if you need us duri

We love discovering creative touches like this wonderful mural by Vinko Design on Grange Road, bringing a splash of colour and personality to the streetscape. Vinko is an Adelaide-based artist and visual storyteller, with a passion for design, tattooing and large-scale murals. His work celebrates emotion, culture and individuality — and this one captures something many of us can relate to… a good coffee! Located close to shopping, Drakes and local cafés, it’s a lovely reminde

Eight years ago, Adelaide Style Accommodation began with a simple vision — to offer visitors to South Australia a welcoming home away from home, with space, comfort and a personal touch. Since 2018, what a journey it has been. Our accommodation has grown, we’ve welcomed guests from near and far, shared so many South Australian stories, achieved 4.5-star accreditation across our homes, received awards and recognition, and continued to discover new ways to make our guests’ stay

How often do we take a photograph without giving much thought to what it might capture for future generations? A building. A streetscape. The way people dressed. A moment in time. Recently, a book caught our eye — Captain Sweet’s Adelaide by Philip Pike and Julian Moore — and it reminded us just how powerful photography can be in telling the story of a city. Captain Samuel White Sweet, born in England in 1825, spent much of his early adult life in the Royal Navy before eventu

Sometimes the simplest moments are the ones we remember. Pour a cup of tea, sit outside and take in the garden — listen to the birds, watch the activity around you and enjoy having nowhere you need to rush off to. Catch up with family or friends you’re travelling with, reminisce about the day’s adventures or make plans for tomorrow. Or simply do nothing at all. After all, holidays are also about slowing down, switching off and giving yourself time to unwind. At Adelaide Style

This week we're proudly celebrating Buy SA Week, but supporting South Australian businesses is something we believe in all year round.

It’s wonderful to receive an update from our Trees For Life (SA) landholder and see some of our 600 native seedlings second planting now safely planted in the ground with their tree guards in place. Tree guards play a vital role in giving young Australian native plants the best possible start. They help protect seedlings from browsing animals, reduce wind damage, create a sheltered microclimate and improve their chances of survival during those important early years. Every tr

At first glance, this is a beautiful bridge over still water. But look again... The calm water creates a perfect reflection, transforming four bridge arches into what appears to be eight. It's a simple reminder that sometimes the most beautiful moments reveal themselves when we slow down and take a second look. Life moves quickly, and it's easy to miss the little things that make a place so special. Whether it's a peaceful morning walk, a quiet moment by the water, or discove

Three weeks ago we shared a fascinating farm find – a historic piece of agricultural machinery that sparked plenty of interest, conversations and memories. Then something wonderful happened. Mary from the Peterborough Print Shop reached out with these words: "You brought back a memory Julie." She kindly shared this incredible vintage advertisement featuring Hugh V. McKay's Australian "Suntyne" Combined Drill and Cultivator. As we explored it further, we uncovered even more of

One of the things we hear most often from our guests is...

As part of our ongoing commitment to creating memorable stays, we've added a beautiful new feature to our Close to City – Butterfly Home in North Adelaide.

Did you know that on 21 June 1962 (64 years ago), what was then known as Para Wirra National Park was officially proclaimed, helping to protect this special piece of South Australia for generations to come? Today, it's a wonderful time to reflect on the vision of those who recognised the importance of conserving this beautiful landscape. Imagine how many native trees, wildflowers, orchids, birds, reptiles, insects and other wildlife have flourished over the past 64 years beca
