“Exceeded expectations”
Our stay was absolutely excellent! The house was stunning, the location was perfect, and everything exceeded our expectations. Helen was a wonderful host — she went above and beyond by leaving us coffee pods and chocolates, which made us feel so welcome. We also had the chance to reconnect with old friends I hadn’t seen in over 20 years, and spent time exploring Manly and the harbour. The house was the ideal base for it all and really made the trip unforgettable. This was the perfect location and such a memorable experience. Highly recommend — 5 Gold Stars!

“Great facilities, clean and comfortable”
Keys were in a locked box. But host lives on site within the building so not far away if you have trouble
