Esther’s place is beautiful and in an excellent location. We loved being within walking distance of Acland street and the 96 tram as well as the beach and Elwood village.
The home itself is beautiful and spacious with a unique raised-living-room layout downstairs. It was quiet and sunny. The home is decorated with an artist’s touch with interesting objects and curio from around the world. The large bathtub was lovely. Esther generously cleared some space in her closets and drawers for us.
We stayed for a week with our 2 year old and 4 year old and we appreciated Esther leaving some kids toys and books, which our kids loved. That said, with our kids at the ages they are, we had some challenges during our stay. With so many breakable items around the home, we had to be on high-alert at all times and even then, our kids, in their normal curiosity, ended up breaking something which we are truly sorry about.
