Amazing stay

A wonderful stay in a beautiful place. Stunning views from all aspects especially sunsets. Our hosts made our stay even more enjoyable with fresh bread baked by Ian and all the little extras which made it more like home. Ian and Robyn are wonderful hosts giving ideas on what to see and special places to visit. Would certainly recommend Refuge Cove on Pittwater Rob and Pauline 16/3/23

A true Gem

We loved our stay at Refuge Cove, the hosts being super amazing for a start assisted in a smooth check in process after a long day! We had space, all inclusions were there, so we didn't really need to buy anything. We used the BBQ and appreciated our own washing machine. Loved the views and location!!!!

Perfect peace

This lovely place exceeded all expectations. It was beautifully appointed with every utensil you could possibly think of; a well stocked pantry and generous breakfast provisions; great toiletries… and even a pair of binoculars to enjoy the view. The deck was a lovely spot to enjoy a drink whilst savouring the view and soaking up the sunset. Great bathroom, comfortable bed, loved having a washing machine. Perfect location only a short drive from Avalon village and beach with the 191 bus stooping two doors down if you don’t feel like driving. Great cafes, restaurants, and two bookshops in Avalon made it ideal for me. I’m just sorry I only had three nights and I hope to return soon for a longer stay. Wonderful hosts who were welcoming and helpful.

Quiet and lovely

For us it was great. Very well outfitted and comfy bed. Transit was easy to get to town / beach but not walking distance. Bus ran often and was right outside the door. Hosts were very helpful and lots of supplies for breakfasts were provided. Not near a town Center but only about 15 min drive or bus ride.

About the host

Hosted by Robyn Crow

Ian and I have spent the last 25 years living on Sydney's Northern Beaches.
We love the water and have had a strong connection with Avalon Beach Surf Club.
We are very knowledgeable about the area and are only too happy to help in anyway.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property many years ago mainly because of it's fantastic location and proximity to both surf beaches and still water ones.

What makes this property unique

The apartment is the entire floor of a beach house and has water views from every room.
There are decks both sides and as we live on a point , 180 degree views continue right up to Ku ring gai Chase National Park.
