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

One of the things we hear most often from our guests is... "We wish we'd booked for longer!" 💛 With so much to see and do across South Australia, it's easy to discover that a few extra days simply aren't enough. 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. Captured by the owner during a visit to the breathtaking Flinders Ranges, this stunning landscape photograph ha

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

One of the joys of being on holiday is having the time to slow down, wander, explore and discover things you might normally rush past during a busy working week. Today we enjoyed the wonderful atmosphere in Rundle Mall, which is currently celebrating 50 years and buzzing with activity. From the colourful displays and markets to live music performances and Adelaide's famous 3 bronze pigs and Mall's Balls, there was plenty to see and enjoy. When you're working, shopping is ofte

This week we had the pleasure of attending Pretty Woman: The Musical at the beautiful Her Majesty's Theatre in Adelaide and what a fabulous night out! Colourful, fun, entertaining and full of energy, it brings the much-loved story to life on stage with wonderful performances, great music and plenty of laughs. We thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommend it if you're looking for a special night out. And let's not forget the venue itself! Her Majesty's Theatre is absolutely st

If you've been following our journey growing 600 Australian native seedlings with Trees For Life (SA) this year, here's a little update on where they are now. Recently, our 600 Australian native seedlings (or "tree babies" as we've affectionately called them throughout the growing process!) made the journey from the city to the countryside when they were collected by the landholder and carefully transported on the back of a ute to their new home. The landholder has since sha

What a fabulous evening at the @frenchaustralianchamber FACCI Gala! As a proud FACCI member, it was wonderful to connect with so many people from across the business community, enjoy some fantastic conversations, meet passionate South Australian wine producers and support the event with a silent auction prize from Adelaide Style Accommodation. A huge thank you to Florence Masters and her team for creating such a memorable evening. We were also treated to a beautiful performa

The ocean can sometimes feel a long way away, but the truth is that what each of us does every day matters. Every piece of litter picked up, every reusable item chosen over a disposable one, every tree planted, every bottle recycled and every effort to care for our local environment contributes to the health of our planet and ultimately our oceans. Today is a reminder that positive change doesn't always come from grand gestures. Often it comes from ordinary people making thou

Tomorrow is one of those days that makes us both happy and a little sad. After six months of care, our 600 Trees For Life (SA) seedlings will be collected and begin their journey to their new home in the South Australian landscape. We've watched them grow from tiny seeds into strong young plants, so it's hard not to become attached! Today we spoke with the landholder who is eagerly awaiting their arrival. It was wonderful to hear how much preparation has already gone into giv

After some welcome rain across South Australia, our gardens are buzzing again… and moments like this remind us that nature slows us down in the best possible way. These busy little bees were captured recently enjoying native flowers around our homes — a small but important reminder that every native plant, every tree grown, every garden space created can help support biodiversity. Then, just as quickly, the skies changed and rewarded us with a rainbow. For visitors to South A

History Friday - History truly came to life for us recently aboard the magnificent Clipper Ship City of Adelaide during the South Australia's History Festival. The “Women of the Ship” presentation was an unforgettable experience — with passionate volunteers bringing real stories to life through research, diaries, costumes, and beautifully told performances representing women connected to the ship across its incredible 162-year history. Did you know the City of Adelaide was sp

Thanks to a fabulous event hosted by Barossa Circle at the stunning Kaesler Wines. From the moment you arrived, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and buzzing with conversation, connection, and support for local South Australian businesses. With the beautiful night sky, historic stone buildings, warm fire, and relaxed Barossa ambiance — it truly was a special evening. Kaesler Wines was the perfect setting — rich in Barossa history with vines dating back to 1893, beautiful ol

Sparkling water, crisp winter air and a South Australian sunset putting on a show before night falls. Winter in South Australia is full of reasons to visit — theatre, festivals, sporting events, cosy fires, wonderful food and wine experiences, beautiful walks and moments like this by the water. Whether you’re planning a city escape, attending an event, or simply wanting time to slow down and explore, all of our 4.5 homes make a wonderful base to experience South Australia in

This year we’ve lovingly grown over 600 Australian native seedlings for Trees For Life (SA) — now waiting patiently to be collected by landholders ready for planting. Every tiny tree in this slow little video represents future habitat, healthier soil, cleaner air, shade, shelter, and food for beautiful native wildlife. Take a quiet moment to slowly enjoy them all… and make sure you watch to the end to hear the natural bird sounds captured during filming — a fitting reminder o

South Australia is looking beautifully green after recent rains — and sometimes the best journeys aren’t rushed. They’re found exploring places with stories… discovering regional towns, vineyards, heritage, local produce, and taking time to appreciate the landscapes around us. Whether travelling for work, visiting family, enjoying a festival, exploring history or planning a longer regional escape, we love sharing local tips to help guests discover more of our wonderful State.

Wow… what a crowd! Despite a little rain on 8 May, it certainly didn’t deter the many people keen to step back in time and join Dr Barry Blundell APM from the South Australian Police Historical Society on a fascinating walking tour through historic Port Adelaide. Murders, mysteries, robberies, stories of policing in the early days… and glimpses into harder times when finding work (or not finding work) could shape lives. One of the highlights was the audio shared along the ro

One of the simple #joys of travelling is slowing down enough to notice the unexpected… colourful public art, birds in the trees, butterflies in the garden, local history and spaces designed for communities to enjoy. Recently while exploring Parkside in the City of Unley, Unley, we admired this vibrant artwork created by the Broughton Art Society — a wonderful South Australian non-profit organisation supporting creativity, inclusion and art since 1965. A huge well done and tha

As it’s National Volunteer Week, Adelaide Style Accommodation would like to recognise Mary and the wonderful volunteer team at the Peterborough Historical Printshop, around 250km north of Adelaide. Mary has lived in Peterborough for around 23 years, moving from Goolwa with her late husband Eldon, whose family connections to Peterborough stretched back to the 1870s. The town held a special place in his heart after spending much of his childhood there with his great grandparent
