I would rate this 10 stars if I could! I had a wonderful stay. I didn't have a car, and host Robbie was full of helpful suggestions for everything from a scenic and economical way to get from the airport, to the locations of nearby shops and restaurants. This AirBnb location is perfect - go out the door, turn left and walk 5 minutes uphill to a boulevard with chic boutiques, restaurants galore, gourmet food and bottle shops, etc. Go out the door to the left, walk downhill and find 2 beautiful calm beaches, with public showers and changinig facilities, and some great beachfront restaurants. The apartment has every amenity, and the garden truly is the peaceful oasis advertised - full of succulents and tranquility. The air was perfumed with Jasmine while I was there, and the purple Jacaranda trees were blooming. I wanted a quiet getaway weekend, and I was delighted with this choice. If you want surfing and nighitlife, go to Bondi or Manley. If you want a serene and restful retreat, this is the place.
