Karen has an absolutely wonderful home at a steal of the price for what you get. She is very attentive and is quick to respond to any questions you have over the messages. You definitely feel like you are at home here. Comfortable beds, furniture, decorations and snacks left for us. She is a wonderful host and give my highest recommendation possible. It is a quick walk down to a cafe that overlooks a beautiful beach, which is only another 3 minute walk. You can also walk right into Manly beach and all the bars, shops and restaurants you need to keep you entertained. If you want to go to Sydney it is a $12 Uber to the warf and a $9 ferry ride right into circle quay (Sydney opera house area). Great home, great location, great host!
