A great option for staying in Coogee

I needed somewhere to crash after a 24hr flight. I wanted to be close to the beach and the coastal walks and restaurants and cafes. This place was quiet and perfect.

Great Place to Stay in Sydney!

We are so glad we stayed here. Not knowing the area, we lucked out to have been able to see the Coogee Beach area and the beach areas of Randwick in addition to downtown Sydney. The public transport was phenomenal and it was easy to get to/from airport, downtown, and almost anywhere else with the light rail and bus systems. Jeremy was a good host and the house was well appointed with everything you need in the kitchen. Groceries are nearby as well as bottle shops and restaurants. The house itself has a charming cottage style and is nicely tucked away behind landscaping, making it feel like your own private getaway. We feel fortunate to have been able to experience Sydney by staying at Jeremy's VRBO.

Best choice for the Sydney area

I was so pleased with our experience at this property. The owner, Jeremy, is extremely accessible for any questions before or during your stay. The unit is cozy but was plenty roomy for our party of four. The kitchen had all we needed to prepare meals each day. The washer and dryer are so helpful so you can pack less for your trip. The best part about the property is the location. Coogee is a fantastic town with a gorgeous beach within easy walking distance of the house. You'll be just minutes away from a grocery store, restaurants, convenience stores, ATM, etc. The bus stop is a one minute walk from the door, and buses run so regularly that we never waited more than a few minutes to get into the city. This seemed like the perfect balance between being close to everything in Sydney, but having the benefit of a quaint beach town feel. Without a doubt, I would book this property if returning to the area.

Excellent!!

We thoroughly enjoyed are stay at the Coggee Beach retreat! It was so close to everything. The public transit was super easy to travel on. Markets and restaurants near by. Washing machine was huge plus as we were on 2nd part of our trip. Water pressure for shower was great as well as plenty of hot water. Jeremy was also very helpful with questions we had. Another great resource close by was the Crowne Plaza Hotel concierge desk. Overall a fantastic stay and would recommend this cottage!

Great Apt and location in Coogee

We had a great stay in the Coogee Beach Retreat. It was the perfect apartment for my family (myself, husband and teenage son) as the location is excellent - just a short walk to Coogee restaurants and beach as well as to a bus stop into Sydney CBD. We also wanted to be close to UNSW since we were visiting our son who attends the university and this location worked out very well. Jeremy is a terrific host - very responsive prior to and during our stay. The apartment was clean, had all the supplies we needed including shampoo and soaps and had good WiFi. We would absolutely stay here again. Thank you for a great Coogee stay, Jeremy!
