We spent 5 days at Karen’s place and wish we could have stayed longer! The proximity to the beach (literally across the road) and Avalon village (a stones throw away) is wonderful. You couldn’t ask for a better location! The local knowledge imparted on us prior to our arrival was terrific, particularly the Kombi coffee van parked a little way up the street to get our morning coffee fix! We decided to ditch the car and catch public transport, to and from the CBD and to nearby Palm Beach, Clareville, Newport and Pittwater. The bus stop is right across the road making it easy to get around. The apartment is thoughtfully equipped, with everything you could need for cooking and extra toiletries. The interior is tastefully styled and compliments the relaxed surroundings. On our last day, we decided to hit the beach for one last swim and were greeted by a pod of dolphins! It really is a magical place and I highly recommend it to anyone in need of a break from the hustle and bustle of city life.
