• Michael (10/5): Very comfortable, spacious, quiet apartment with good views of Pittwater both sides. -
• Swanson (9/5): - A beautiful property with panoramic views of Pittwater, and close to secluded beaches on Pittwater, and coffee shops. A small drive to Avalon, and Palm Beach with its many cafes and shops, made the property ideal for a long weekend getaway from the city/ I really loved this place, and huge thanks to host Robyn and Ian who made our stay even more special, by providing fresh bread and eggs, and providing a late check out on the day we were leaving. We're looking forward to coming back and staying in the summer.

We had such a relaxing and calm weekend. Thank you so much for your thoughtful hospitality.. we have stayed in many places as this is one we will remember.
• Jo (10/5): Lovely and relaxing. Kitchen had everything, even freshly baked bread! - Fantastic location … very comfortable Nothing… it was perfect
• Hayes (8/5): Apartment has a fantastic & tranquil view over pittwater. - Host left freshly baked bread, & eggs which was a great start to the day.
• Michael (8/5): Very pleasant, spoilt by the rain. - No fruit supplied . The stairs in the rain were a problem for an old man with a stick (me). Our host did kindly carry up our bags. I did cut my leg on the sharp edge on the bed frame. A design fault.

• Mark (10/5): A pleasant get away - The place was nicely decorated and very clean. It had great views of the water.
• Ian (10/5): Exceptional - Little things like milk, eggs, butter, bread available for use was an unexpected delight. The location was exceptional being located on Taylors Point in Pittwater there were water views both North and South to the Pittwater with sailing boats aplenty. I should have booked for a longer stay! This location was awesome and so was the weather for our stay.

• Campbell (9/5): Superb -
• Paula (10/5): Exceptional -
• Andrew (10/5): Great location, fantastic setup. - Fantastic location - on hill overlooking Pittwater (Clareville beach). You need a car really, as it’s a short drive but would be a bit of a walk from Clareville beach and shops. Area is lovely - nice bush and water views through the trees, nice feel to the area too. Apartment is more spacious than we had expected, with a large lounge and spacious bedroom. It was ideal for a weekend with our daughter. The Clareville beach area has great cafes and a funky feel. Robyn and Ian were very helpful - very prompt replies etc. Would definitely come back again. It rained hard all day Saturday…we were only there for two nights. The apartment was great tho, so it’s nothing to do with the place! Didn’t matter either as the lounge was spacious so we were able to spend time relaxing in between trips out and about.
• Leanne (8/5): Owners were lovely - Nice and clean and comfy Heater didn’t work
• Andrew (8/5): Ideal spot on the northern beaches. - Functional kitchen, large living room and master bedroom with bathroom. Fabulous place to stay for a few days. Very clean. The bedroom could do with a heater for the winter months. Off street parking was difficult at times.
• Rhona (9/5): Relaxing couple of days in a beautiful area. - Beautiful surroundings and views.
• Laurel (8/5): Very good -
• Querzoli (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mya (9/5): It was great! - It was all good and comfortable. Nothing I can think of
• Charlotte (10/5): Outstanding! - Everything was outstanding! Location, beds and hospitality was perfect. We will definitely be back :) Highly recommend! Nothing!

• Jessica (10/5): Exceptional - We loved every bit of our stay
• William (9/5): Superb -
• Taylor (9/5): Superb -
• Kimberley (9/5): A clean, calm and comfortable stay with stellar views - Fantastic location, well equipped kitchen, outstanding views, flexible check in Only payment options were cash or bank transfer
• Elisabeth (7/5): A delightful place to stay when not hot weather - Spectacular views, very comfortable bed and large, modern bathroom. The lounge room was spacious and had two good couches. Eggs, milk and bread and a few chocolates were provided in a good sized kitchen. Unfortunately, we stayed during a very hot two days. The air conditioner was only in the lounge area and not in the bedroom or kitchen. The bedroom had a ceiling fan only. The kitchen was extremely hot as had no shade on the window. This made it difficult to cook.
• Alves (10/5): Exceptional - We loved the little things like fresh bread, chocolates, the endless views, a memorable and relaxing weekend. We liked everything.
• Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional -
• Georgia (8/5): Highly recommend this location and property. I will be returning in the future! - location was above expectations lovely views on both sides. fresh home made bread waiting for us. all the necessities available for use - eggs, milk, serviettes, herbs, salt, pepper, oil etc. you just need to bring your clothes. Will never stay at a hotel again. the owners were so lovely we bumped into when leaving. the only thing I would suggest is to replace the futon mattress which was very uncomfortable and uneven. Other than that I can’t fault anything else.
• Andrew (7/5): Bring your own transport unless you like getting the bus which stops right outside the house - It is very comfortable and has great views and easy to prepare breakfast If I had known I could not get Uber Didi or Ola or any taxi company to pick me up I wouldn’t have booked it
• Elektra (9/5): Superb - Outside-amazing views, inside-everything you need
• Pia (10/5): Exceptional -
• Chantal (9/5): Superb - Lovely freshly baked bread and breakfast supplies. The views were amazing, the house very comfortable and private. It had everything we needed. Would have been nice to have more butter with the breakfast supplies.
• Brendan (8/5): Lovely location and a comfortable place to stay - Large apartment all to yourself Tasty breakfast included The location is beautiful Parking on the street was tight and scary knowing there were buses coming down there
• Sandra (8/5): Very good - The property is very clean and comfortable and the water views are spectacular The shower is spacious Plenty of room in the loungeroom and the kitchen has everything you need to cook up a storm
• Eduardo (10/5): Exceptional -
• Miles (9/5): An excellent bolt hole in a beautiful area - Comfortable, clean and well-located with gracious hosts No fault of the owner, but excessive constructions and narrow roads of Avalon resemble the Amalfi coast!
• Peter (9/5): Superb - Location & views Lots of construction going on around the neighbourhood but not too bad
• Sebastina (10/5): Perfect place for a getaway - Amazing location. Very well equipped and clean.
• Susan (10/5): Delightful, we definitely recommend, and we would come again! - We really liked the Privacy of the space; we didn't feel anyone was looking at us. We really liked the Views! They were even better than as described. We really liked that the kitchen was so well stocked: there were a few condiments and accoutrements in the kitchen (butter, jam, bread, eggs, and things like oil, salt, pepper and real milk) Nothing.
• Scott (10/5): Exceptional -
• Raelene (9/5): Perfect way to spend a few relaxing days. Accommodation was lovely, comfortable and clean. - Perfect accommodation that is comfortable, nicely decorated and clean with beautiful views from kitchen, lounge and bedroom. Wonderful location with walking distance to beaches and short drive to Avalon village with great restaurants, cafes, clothes and homeware stores. Hosts were great very helpful and provided a lovely breakfast including freshly baked bread. Kitchen well equipped with all staples. Only thing that could be improved would be the bed, whilst very comfortable it is a little squeaky when you move but doesn’t stop you having a great night sleep.
• Sally (9/5): We had a great time, beautiful views and very comfy. - Very clean and hosts had thought of all the little extras. Nothing to not like, maybe better pillows.
• Kathryn (10/5): What a Place, Great. - The view from balcony. The area uphill but the view was to die for. Convenient for a stroll to beach. The Clareville area excellent. Provisions from nearby Mona Ville some 5 miles away. Lovely beaches in area, Palm Beach a favourite. Great contrast to Sydney itself and only just over an hours drive away. The apartment was spotlessly clean with basic provisions provided and very comfortable The contact made previously with hosts very friendly and accommodating. Nothing. Car a necessity.
• Julie (10/5): The apartment was bright and clean. great views & easy access with a short drive to beach/park/shops - fabulous views. clean & spacious. Great bread/breakfast supplied. nothing
• Alice (10/5): Exceptional -
• Celine (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jacqui (10/5): OUr highlight for staying in Sydney was Pittwater, lovely beaches close by, and lovely hosts - Such a treat having homemade bread, also bacon & eggs provided, and homemade jams, butter, milk, so we didn't need to get supplies for our first night. Amazing view, lovely vibe, super peaceful, will definitely stay again when visiting Sydney. A little gem! Nothing, was just perfect, overlooking Pittwater, short walk to jetty & lovely neighbourhood
• Julie (10/5): super comfortable with great views - the views were fantastic and the space was very well laid out and super comfortable
• George (9/5): Superb - Secluded and quiet Stairs and the driveway. Both were narrow
• Alastair (9/5): Superb -
