Kristine's Airbnb was beautiful oasis after a long day at work and a delayed domestic flight. On arrival Kristine was there to greet us and give a tour of her property. The apartment is at the back of the main house, with a a small undercover patio area including your own BBQ and table and chairs. The area is also semi-secluded with a partition blocking the main house from your own private space.

Inside the space you'll find a roomy living room with sofa, chairs and coffee table. The kitchenette is stocked with breakfast provisions and the delicious strawberries, bottled water and chocolates were a great treat.

The bathroom although small was extremely clean and Kristine provides 2 sets of fresh towels, soap, shampoo and conditioner (there were two of us staying).

We were very impressed with the bedroom, which takes up the whole of the upper level. Two comfortable double beds, with soft linen and great pillows - we both slept soundly throughout our stay. The large split system air conditioner cools the bedroom quickly and the lower level. The entertainment centre with the selection of DVD's and a media player meant we were able to totally relax and unwind in comfort.

The location is perfect. Walking distance to Coogee Beach and restaurants, pubs and cafes. Public Transport is plentiful and easy to catch. There is a bus stop at the end of the street and a bus station at Coogee.

The little things have been thought of: beach towels, beach umbrella, rain umbrella, insect repellent, cooler bag and ice bricks.

Kristine and her husband were welcoming and always available for a chat, suggestions of where to eat and to provide any help you need. I left to head home, feeling like I'd been away for weeks and not a few days. Testament of how peaceful and relaxing staying at Kristine's Airbnb is.
