Further details for this vacation apartment rental in Sydney City, Australia

This is an opportunity to experience the real Sydney lifestyle, a real haven away from the city noise,traffic and stress.

This type of vacation package is not available with hotels and most accommodation packages.

The apartment has a full gourmet kitchen with the latest appliances and highest quality furniture. Set amongst the tree tops it affords seclusion, privacy and bushland views. There are bushwalks from your front door and the opportunity if you wish to share breakfast on the outside deck with an array of native parrots that visit each morning.

Also within minutes is a large shopping mall, a wildlife sanctuary where you can see and touch Koalas and Kangaroos and access to the KuringGai Chase National Park which is Sydney's premier park.

Wow what a location

Review Submitted: January 9, 2010 Date of Stay: November 2009
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Australia. After our cruise we stayed 5 nights in this apartment in Sydney. It is exactly as pictured and the owners are extremely helpful and hospitable.

Its as pictured, complete with the birds at breakfast and the possum at night. All furnishings are of high quality and are either new or refurbished antiques.. I especially enjoyed having a washer in the apartment, as I cannot tolerate dirty laundry. The owners have pretty much thought of everything and all you will need is food.

The owners do tours of Sydney and even have a boat, however because of the short stay we did our own thing by taking the train each day into the city which is an easy walk from the apartment.. The apartment is in Normanhurst an upper-class suburb in Sydneys north with lots of vegation and flowers and the ride into the city is a little over 30min. You arrive at one othe Central stations with connections everywhere. We bought tickets for unlimited use of the trains, ferries and buses which were very reasinable.

All in all, our stay in the apartment was one of the high points of our trip, as we were able to meet real Australians and actually live in the real Australia.

As far as money is concerned, we paid a deposit by credit card and the remainder, also by credit card when we left the apartment.

Owner's Response: As owners, it is of paramount importance for us to present the property to the highest degree of comfort and cleanliness, ensuring our guests enjoy their stay.

It would appear that the majority of our past guests have enjoyed being able to blend into the the Australian way of life, to mix with locals, make friends with the native animals and birds and to understand and explore the real Sydney.

Our Best Housing Experience in Australia

Review Submitted: December 14, 2011 Date of Stay: October 2011
The property was as described but you don't comprehend how nice the total environment is until your experience it. The house was very clean and everything was in working order. The owners were the best. They became friends and we spent a good bit of time together. They added an intangible value to the experience that cannot be quantified in money. We have met fine hosts in the past, but Ron and Jan win the prize as the best.
We used the outdoor cooking facilities to host a group of our Australian Rotarian friends. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed eating by the pool in the lush foliage around the house. Ron and Jan pitched in and helped us prepare, serve, entertain, and clean up.
We enjoyed our walkabout in the nature reserve area behind the house. This is a dream location for living in a city suburb. It is quiet, clean, the air smells fresh, and the grounds are beautiful. We were visited by the Lorikeets every morning and other birds throughout the day. Even turkeys visited us.
It is only a 10 minute walk to the train. With the train, our activity choices were unlimited. We went shopping in Hornsby and to the Sydney CBD many times. The train is the way to travel.
The neighborhood is quiet so expect nothing more than peace and quiet. It is safe and we could leave home and not worry if we forgot to lock the doors. In the evenings, we sat on the porch, with a glass of wine and enjoyed the sun setting to the music of the dusk as provided by birds, insects and animals.
We spent 3 months on this vacation to Australia. This was the best place we stayed and the best value for our money. We enjoyed the house, Ron & Jan, and the surroundings so much that we even stayed home three days rather than go somewhere. Living here is more than just a place to spend the night. We highly recommend this experience to our friends and family.

Owner's Response: Thank you George (Pearlville Texas). It really is important for us that our guests have a great vacation. We do try to offer a complete opposite alternative to hotel style accommodation.

IN THE BUSH EXPERIANCE

Review Submitted: January 21, 2011 Date of Stay: January 2011
My husband and i have just returned from our holidays and we were very lucky to have stayed at this 'Tree House',if you decide to choose this home then you will be very pleased as it has everything that you would need and also close to all, just a train journey away or hire a car from Avis in the local village to travel further afield to Blue Mountains etc.The owners are very pleasent and make you feel relaxed and at home.The wild life around you is just picture post card really and adds to the holiday experiance.Everything that you needis catered for even down to changing of linen every 3 days was something special really.We will certainly be telling our family and friends about this place and you never know maybe oneday we will re-visit.Thank you Ron & Jan
