We were at this property from the 28th of February to March 5, 2019. We had chosen this location due to its proximity to beaches, the coastal walking path, and public transportation. Diane and Al have a very nice ground level studio suite that is easily accessible from the front of the property, with its own entry and digital door lock, making check in very straight forward. Nice not to have to worry about losing a key or locking yourself out. Diane and Al live on the property, and are generally close by if needed, but never intrusive. The apartment was spotlessly clean and well appointed with most necessities. Kitchen facilities are quite limited, but there is access to a barbecue and the suite has a microwave, electric kettle and basic utensils. We mostly ate out, and there are numerous food outlets within walking distance. One thing worth noting is that the property is located on the crest of a hill, and in fact much of the Maroubra coastal area can be somewhat hilly, so it could be a bit strenuous for some people to walk to beaches or the commercial areas. That being said, anyone in decent shape will have no problems. This a great location that always felt safe, and we would give it a top recommendation.
