This is a great location for golfers challenging the Melbourne Sandbelt or cyclists biking famed Beach Road. The home had everything I needed, and the location was second to none. I could walk to Royal Melbourne and Black Rock Village, yet still be in the CBD in 30 mins/$40 AUD.
Sabino is a great host who went out of his way to welcome me and make sure all my local needs were met - including picking up an express post package for me so it wouldn’t sit at the post office. This is as close as it gets to “my buddy is giving me his house when I visit,” and the house has everything you need (without being unaffordably luxurious). Can’t wait to come back!
