What an incredible place! The view is absolutely breathtaking, photos don't do it justice. Location is perfect for being close to the beach but also very easy to get to city centre ($15 uber/zoomy to Cuba Street). The house is really cosy and homely and has a great, very well equipped kitchen with lots of spices and herbs to cook with. Silke is an excellent host, always ready to give tips on places to visit; there's even a local guide she's put together with loads of great ideas! Lyall Bay is a great little neighbourhood with some awesome cafes. Highly recommend staying here, especially if you love the sea!
