Picturesque apartment by the beach in Parsley Bay


I'd like to welcome you to an extremely picturesque apartment by the water in the beautiful Eastern Suburbs of Sydney, literally footsteps away from Parsley Bay, Vaucluse Bay, Kutti Beach and Watsons Bay.

My architect-designed apartment consists of open plan, spacious living areas with plenty of natural light, with a gas fireplace for cosy nights in and a 65inch smart television to chill out in the evening or catch up on the news. There is a private study off the main living area, and I leave a computer available for use there, but of course there is wireless high-speed internet throughout the apartment if you prefer to use your own devices. The bedrooms have overhead fans and plenty of wardrobe space, and there's a bathtub in the ensuite and shower in the guest bathroom. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to make anything from toast in the mornings to haut cuisine in the evenings - on the off chance that you've worn out the amazing eateries in the vicinity!

Please feel free to message me anytime and once I receive a booking confirmation i will send you my contact details for more direct communications and so that I can be available to assist you during your stay.

Access is through a security code, so no need to fuss around with keys.

One final note, if you're interested in some sailing or some relaxed cruising and exploring around beautiful Sydney Harbour in real style, I can arrange something suitable either during your stay, or at another time convenient for you; I'm a professional licensed skipper and architect and have spent my lifetime sailing around the world, and can promise you a quite amazing experience that will totally blow you away (pardon the pun)! I really enjoy meeting new people and sharing experiences afloat on one of the best harbours in the world, so please don’t hesitate to ask me for any further information if interested.

Great Accommodation, Location and Host

This was our 3rd time staying in Shane's apartment in Parsley Bay. The apartment is clean and well appointed for our extended 2 week stay. Location in Vaucluse is excellent, easily within walking distance of Watsons Bay ferry wharf. Shane was also flexible and fair when we had to make a booking change.

Great Location and Host

This was the second time we've stayed at Shane's apartment. The apartment was clean and well suited for our long term stay to visit our family in the area. Close to ferry and bus services to get around Sydney and Watsons Bay. Shane was helpful in making adjustments as our plans changed due to cancellation of our flights to Australia.

Perfect

We had a very comfortable stay, everything we needed was provided for, it made our stay so much more enjoyable and less stressful . The unit was clean, comfortable and warm in winter. We enjoyed the close proximity to the water and beautiful foreshore walks. Shane was very polite and a pleasure to deal with.

Booked this apartment for my mother in law while she was on an extended stay in Sydney and needed something close to our home! Such a gorgeous little apartment. Recently renovated, great location right near the water, safe and easy access! Also, the communication with the host was seamless and quick. Have already booked again!

Fantastic Location and Facilities

The property was very well kept and recently renovated. We enjoyed the location and felt like we were on holiday even though we worked remotely during our stay. The property is well located to restaurants, beaches and the South Head Cliff Walk. We would definitely stay there next time we head to Sydney, Thank you Shane.
