We had such a fantastic time at Lisa’s place, we didn’t want to leave. Oakleigh is a lovely Victorian home in a picture perfect and quiet little pocket of Glebe. Everything is right there - cafes, parks, restaurants, wine shop, light rail etc. It’s a perfect base to explore Glebe and Sydney.
It is a warm family home full of character, great art and good books. It is also a kid’s dream with plenty of toys and kids’ books – and most importantly, room to play with them all. However, our 1 and 3 year old were unsure of what to make of the oversized Yoda doll (nightmares were had!).
We especially loved the well-equipped generous kitchen that captures all the sun. The nespresso machine and orange juicer were a great way to kick start to the day.
For us, Oakleigh is what AirBnB is all about. This is a home, not a hotel. It has everything you could possibly need and Lisa is a warm and responsive host.
