The location of James's place is fantastic. It takes just two minutes to walk to the beach, right where the Bondi Beach Skate Park is (which was a dream for my kids, who both skate). There is a great market, cool shops (including a little bookshop/cafe I just loved, and tons of good places to eat and have coffee, all within a few blocks. The building doesn't look like much from the outside, but inside the apartment is gorgeous and really nicely furnished. James was super quick to respond to questions and made check-in very easy. Note that Bondi is a popular and bustling beach, and therefore not exactly quiet, but it didn't bother me or keep me up at all. I definitely recommend James's place.
