We arrived late January 2020 for a work assignment and ended up staying through all of New South Wales' COVID lockdown and then some. We could not have been more thankful to have Gavin and Sari as hosts, and now friends, and to feel not just safe in the strange days but incredibly comfortable and well taken care of. Having our own entrance, access to to a lovely green outdoor seating area as a welcome respite from long remote working days, a wonderful shower, an incredibly comfortable bed that stayed cool when it was warm and cozy when it cooled down, and all the other little amenities (we are now addicted to the milk frother for our coffee) made our stay one for the ages. Given the length of our stay, not only did we enjoy the promised wonderful wine & cheese night with our hosts upstairs in their beautiful home, but also two amazing dinners. Easy access to Coogee beach, Gordon's Bay, the coastal walk and all the beautiful streets of the eastern suburbs made for wonderful wanderings on our daily walks. Before lockdown, it was also super easy to catch the bus to my office in Surry Hills, and we enjoyed easy access to great stores and restaurants in the neighborhood. We'd highly recommend staying here and look forward to when we come back. Thanks, Gavin and Sari!
