Wow. A fantastic stay at this wonderful place. Everything was as advertised and the sort of "classy, yet relaxed" vibe of the house, neighborhood, and this little part of NSW helped us get into the holiday mindset very quickly! The place was perfect for my wife and I, our friend, and our 4-year-old son. The child-friendly nature of the house made it a great stay for our little guy. The toys, trampoline, perfect kids' room, and regular visits by the amazing bird life in the trees made traveling with a child about as easy as it gets. For the adults, the deck was lovely (especially for sunsets!), the wifi and TV worked well, and the bedrooms (especially the master) were very comfy. The espresso machine was a nice touch too! We were thinking, "This is the sort of place you see in a magazine," then we saw it in a magazine! Where else are you going to find that?!

For us, the location of the house was perfect. It is a 5-10 minute scenic drive to 4 or 5 stunning beaches. You can walk from the house to a great one (Whale Beach) in about 20 mins, but with a little one in tow, we only walked once. Avalon itself is brilliant, with at least a day or two of shopping on tap. Some very nice restaurants in Avalon and the other little beach towns around. The pizza place at the bottom of the hill was fantastic as well (we went twice!). Zoe leaves a little "cheat sheet" of places to visit in the area, and they were all spot-on.

In short, this is a fantastic spot. Everything we have done in Oz has been a bit of a let down after our time here, and that is saying a lot, because Australia is wonderful! If you are thinking of booking with Zoe, just do it; you will not be disappointed. Just don't take our week(s), we'll be back!
