Best Studio in the Royal National Park
We had an amazing stay at Alex! The Studio is very private, with garden views, a lot of natural light and Alex's attention to details made our stay the best weekend away. Everything is brand new, beautiful and well thought of... the bathroom poducts were great too! The location is perfect, quiet and close to the walks and surf beaches. Highly recommended!!

A peaceful oasis
The garden studio is exactly as described on the site. It’s the most wonderful accommodation to stay if you want peace and tranquility. The interior is beautiful and the host has thought of every little detail to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The garden is a haven with an abundance of birdlife. We would definitely stay here again if we came back to Sydney

Nice place to stay
Great place to stay, host was great, gave us a welcome note as well as some chocolates. Pantry had a few things too to help make the stay more comfortable like tea, coffee, salt, pepper and sauces. May have been a typo, there was “hot tub” listed on the stayz site but no hot tub but didn’t matter, we just went to the beach. Very pleasant stay and also convenient to have a washer and dryer. Would definitely recommend this place.

Just lovely!
We had a peaceful and relaxing getaway. The house is gorgeous and our hostess, Alex was beyond kind, helpful, and easy to communicate with. When staying, explore the little beach town of Bundeena. It is so cute! We also recommend the Audley Cafe. Their food is like works of art! We cannot gush enough over this little piece of heaven. Thank you, Alex for hosting us.
