The unit is neat and clean. The closeness to bondi beach was nice. The fans kept the unit cool at all times.
I was very surprised to discover that this unit was in fact an "out building" of some sort where the owners live on the property and block the full view of the beach. There is no way to see the beach from the unit and it felt like I was living in somebodies yard (which I was). Truly disappointing to have discovered that on arrival. The unit is decorated tastefully and is clean and therefore if you are willing to stay in a granny cottage then I would say consider this. There were so many other options in Shelly Beach that offered uninterrupted view of the beach and were closer and ALOT more private. Whilst the garden was big, it felt like the garden belongs to the owners and you feel very uncomfortable going out and relaxing. You would either be met with the housekeeping staff outside or gardeners cleaning the garden right next to windows whilst you are on holiday expecting some level of privacy, or 2 little dogs constantly getting excited and running to you (cute dogs nonetheless) whilst you rested, and seeing laundry being put on the line near the unit was the cherry on top. You never feel alone or have privacy and that was a complete NO for me. The beds are extremely uncomfortable. The base in the main bed is held on 2 bricks making the bed very difficult to lay on. Having chronic back ache made it a whole lot more unpleasant. Access to the beach is direct from the property however disclaimer the wooden pole steps are extremely steep (almost verticle) and makes it very difficult to go down if you have younger kids. I think if the description of this property was true to its nature and if I booked it I would have been somewhat satisfied however, I felt deceived on arrival. Additionally, paying an excessive amount for cleaning (which is way above standard- for my trip it was R800) to only be told that no cleaning will be offered during my stay was truly disappointing and frustrating.
