Maria's place is fabulous. We're still early in a trip around the world, staying mostly in airbnbs and guest houses along the way, but hers was our favorite so far: stunningly beautiful, clean, spacious, great art and lovely houseplants, and well-appointed. We enjoyed cooking in her kitchen. Anytime we needed something, we looked for it and found it, as if she were anticipating our every need.
I loved slipping out just before dawn and walking down to Bathers Beach for a morning dip. And we loved coming "home" every night after a full day.
Great location near terrific beaches to the north and south, easy to get around by public transportation, and public art everywhere you look.
If you're going to Fremantle, stay here.
