About Us
At Sol Hus, we aim to connect people with the ocean. Our off-grid cabins, nestled along the rugged north coast of Kangaroo Island, offer an authentic retreat, giving you space to reconnect with the natural world.
Our Story
Our journey to creating Sol Hus began from a mutual love of the sea where we've dedicated countless hours to diving and boating, exploring the ocean. This passion for marine life and commitment to environmental conservation inspired us to establish Sol Hus. Here, we've combined our love for the sea with sustainable living to offer a distinctive eco-tourism experience that's in harmony with our values and the natural world.
Vision
Sol Hus is our tribute to the ocean and the planet. Our off-grid tiny cabins are thoughtfully designed with nature in mind. Located right on the beachfront, they offer a unique, close connection to Kangaroo island's north coast.
​
Sustainability is at the heart of Sol Hus. Our off-grid living and commitment to a minimal impact on the surrounding environment ensure that your stay is both comfortable and mindful, allowing you to fully experience nature with minimal disruption.
Revegetation and Marine Conservation
Our commitment extends beyond providing a tranquil getaway. We're actively involved in revegetating the land we operate on, restoring the native flora and fauna, and contributing to the ecological balance of the region.
​
Moreover, we believe in giving back to the ocean that has given us so much. That's why we're proud to donate 50% of our profits to The Australian Ocean Laboratory, a South Australian based environmental non-profit. Their mission to Help our Oceans through Technology aligns perfectly with our vision, and your stay contributes directly to this cause.
Our Name
Our name Sol Hus translates to Sun House in Swedish, capturing the essence of Scandinavian design philosophy that values simplicity, functionality, and a profound connection with nature. This is particularly embodied in the concept of 'friluftsliv,' which advocates for a simple life outdoors in harmony with the natural world, without causing harm or disruption. Here, guests are encouraged to embrace the Nordic spirit of 'friluftsliv,' by slowing down and spending time in nature.
