Zen zone

Sharon has created a beautiful little oasis in a cul-de-sac so it's quiet anyway and the Balinese garden adds a Zen factor. The house was immaculately clean and tidy, the garden shady and relaxing. Sharon and Cooper are welcoming and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Wifi was good allowing my wife to work and conduct online meetings from the table in the backyard. Would stay again.

The house is clean, homely, spacious, comfortable and well-kept. It is also very well located, close to beautiful nature and Bond University. We really felt at home here. I would really recommend this accommodation, we will be back!

This studio has everything you need including an outside sitting area. Very comfortable. The studio is attached to host's home. Is a bit of round about way to go out of estate. Overall a great place to stay
