9 Coogee Bay

AllisonRating, 5 stars2 months ago

We spent a lovely long weekend at Karen's listing. The location is unbeatable, with the sound of the surf a constant backdrop. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the balcony followed by walks on the beach. The apartment is comfortable, and we found it very clean. The building is quiet and neighbors friendly. While we didn't get to meet Karen in person, all of her communication with us was timely and helpful. We highly recommend this location to couples or small families looking for a place on the coast.

Paw Prints

TamerynRating, 5 stars1 month ago

My partner and I had such a wonderful stay at Paw Prints! This charming little cottage had everything we needed and was spotlessly clean. We spent our anniversary and my birthday here, and it was the perfect peaceful escape. The location couldn’t be better—nestled between the bush and the beach, with beautiful walking paths and just a short stroll from the shore. Hanna was an amazing host—warm, welcoming, and attentive. She even offered us a late checkout, which was so appreciated and made our special stay even more relaxing. We also loved her adorable pets next door, especially the friendly cat who would visit us for head scratches. 10/10—We’d absolutely love to return. Such value for money and the perfect nature-filled getaway to unwind and celebrate.

We had an amazing time at Kerryn’s home. We felt so safe and couldn’t get over the stunning river view - managed to spot so many bird species from the balcony.
