Having lived in North Bondi for 17 years, now in Carmel, CA, this was a perfect location for my youngest son and I. We were in Sydney for my oldest sons engagement party on the Harbour.
The location is outstanding, nestled between great bars and restaurants but very quiet as the apartment is at the back. The beach is 50 yards away. Whilst there I was preparing my youngest to move to East Timor, so the washing machine, drying on the balcony and iron were invaluable. The kitchen had everything we needed. Also, check out RAW for outstanding Japanese, Depot for breakfast , Gustos for coffee and Margaret for a special dinner.
Hard to say anything negative, except the bed pillows are large and foam, pretty uncomfortable to sleep on and also bring beach towels as only one in the apartment.
Overall, and I've stayed in airbnb's in many countries, I would highly recommend this perfect apartment for families and singles - yes, it is a 4 storey walk up but get your steps in and enjoy!
