We've been using Airbnb for many years now and this was without doubt our best experience: a beautifully restored Fremantle cottage in a lovely neighbourhood.
We'd been in Fremantle at the start of our holiday and wanted to return, and having wandered through the streets of the South side of the town we wanted to stay in this area. All the buildings here are unique and the vibe is very relaxed.
Traci and Paul were quick to respond and very flexible with our arrival and departure times. They live next door in the other half of the cottage and we met Traci just to say hello. She was keen to hear what we thought and what could be improved.
This is what Airbnb should be all about. Of course they want to earn money from their property but they also want others to enjoy it. There were also some lovely touches: plenty of tea, coffee and milk as well as some beer wine and chocolate!
And Fremantle is a great town. We enjoyed the following places...
Locally: Percy Flint on South Terrace for drinks and Ruocco's Pizzeria across the road.
In town: The Monk, Bread in Common, Little Creatures and the Ball & Chain pub
