Emily and David were easy to contact and responded quickly to questions prior to arrival. Upon arrival we found the apartment to be true to the photos, very clean and cosy. Our hosts had left goodies for us - a tasty bottle of red, smoked salmon, cheese, olives, fruit, plus breakfast staples, so we didn't need to shop or go out on our first night.
The living spaces are comfortable and well appointed. We found pots and pans, knives that cut (not the 70's beach house, this), everything you need to cook if you want to. Games, books, dvds are provided. Bed was comfy with nice linen, views from the bedroom and lounge are lovely (leafy trees, ocean), and the quiet was welcome. You may be woken by kookaburras, magpies and bellbirds...
Nearby Avalon has a Woolies, and lots of nice shops and cafes. There are walks, beaches and saltwater pools a-plenty.
Emily and David were available if needed but not at all intrusive, so we felt "at home". Leaving after 3 days, we wanted to stay longer to linger at home with books and views, or wander down to the beach for a swim, or drive 5 minutes to Avalon to catch a movie at the deco cinema. Thankyou to our hosts, we may well be back to some more r ' n' r.
