My girlfriend and I stayed 6 nights in Lisa's studio. We were visiting some family who live just round the corner so we knew the area well already. The location, perched up on the cliff in Manly, really is perfect. We woke every morning and made the 2-3 min walk down onto the beach for a jog. There are loads of nice cafes and restaurants nearby so the absence of a kitchen is barely felt. The studio itself is just as described - it would be considered a very nice suite in a hotel (probably 4 star rather than 5) with a separate living area and bedroom and a good walk in shower that was hot and powerful. The studio is attached to a private residence but has its own entry and is very secluded - we didn't even need to meet Lisa (though it was nice to know she was on hand if needed). Overall, very pleased with our stay and would recommend for anyone looking for short term accommodation in the Manly area.
