Relaxing and comfortable

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay in Steve's apartment. The apartment was spacious, clean and comfortable and the view from the patio over the trees to the ocean -- glorious! The location is very quiet and peaceful, with easy access to Redhead Beach & coffee shops and under 15 minutes to Mereweather baths by car. It's also close to the Fernleigh Track. Steve was friendly and welcoming.

Perfect place to getaway

This place everything we needed. The house location is perfect for overlooking the ocean to see the sun rise from the backyard. The moonlight over the ocean is breath taking. The bed were comfortable and the heated beds made it heavenly in winter. We also met Steve the host and he is a great guy to deal with. Will definitely come back spring and summer.

Beyond expectations! Spacious home from home.

We needed an apartment for a couple of weeks - we found a home! We couldn't ask for more.The apartment is spacious, well-appointed and comfortable, reflecting a somewhat earlier era. The view is wonderful, with th ocean offering something different every day. All th photos are spot on. The gardens around the house are beautifully kept and add to the sense of peace and quiet.Steve, the host, is thoughtful and friendly, and will help out when needed, without being intrusive.A car is preferable, but public transport also works, with a little patience.

Stunning and peaceful location

Our time at Steve’s unit had everything we wanted - the unit and yard were large enough to give the four of us our own space as well as ample area to spend time together. It was quiet and peaceful, with a stunning ocean view from indoors and from the back patio and yard. Steve greeted us on arrival and was very hospitable. The unit was supplied with all of those kitchen essentials that you don’t want to have to buy just for a short stay - paper towelling, foil etc etc. as well as games and cards and books for entertainment. Beds were very comfortable and the shower was great. The whole unit was very clean. We would definitely stay again. Thank you Steve!

The accommodation was large, clean, and part of a larger, beautiful property. We had everything we needed. Communication with the host was fantastic. The location was within easy drive to the beautiful Dudley beach and to restaurants and pubs.The only critique was that the place was a little dated and the view was slightly obscured by a fence. However, you could still see through the fence to the beautiful view.
