Communicative and friendly host, property was just what we needed for our trip. Shops and coffee was walkable too! The place has an oven and washing machine which is very convenient! Dog friendly in a closed off yard. Host does have dogs upstairs so bare that in mind if you have a reactive dog, but it didn’t really bother us at all

One night stay

Was a lovely place, very clean and had great amenties. Owner was lovely. The place was a little hard to find as you have to go into a driveway at the front to get to the gate on the side for the entrance.

Property was ideally located to suit our needs. Nearby off-leash parks were appreciated by our dog. Very well-appointed property but mind your head on the bathroom door if you're a six-footer.

Quiet, cosy & convenient!

The apartment is just lovely. Nestled in a quiet street, conveniently located to nearby shops & restaurants, the accommodation ticked all the boxes for my stay. A perfect base for visiting the Northern Beaches. Well appointed and private. Would definitely stay again. Communication with host was easy. 5 Stars!

Good overall, plenty of room. Only issues were with the step up to the bathroom & low bathroom ceiling (I’m 6ft 2/ 188 cm). Also kitchen cupboards hard to close.

My husband and I had 2 wonderful nights at this lovely home. Our host Chey was so lovely and helpful and even offered us a late checkout as it was Daylight Savings. The house is very private and quiet and we appreciated all the small extra touches such as lots of nice towels, toilet paper, soaps, moisturisers and the like. Also a coffee machine, milk and tea. The private balcony was another highlight. Would highly recommend to others.
