Amazing Host - stunning house and location
A Home away from Home with an incredible view in the best location. Jeeves was a beautiful host who was easy to communicate with and went above and beyond in making our stay feel very special. The house was amazing - it was comfortable, clean, spacious and well thought out. Walking distance to everything, although you can simply stay at the house as it really has everything you need. Absolutely loved it! Highly recommend :) Thanks for having us Jeeves.

Exceptional Home
This is by far the best property we have ever stayed in. Superb location with spectacular views close to the beach, with all the amenities -- pool, hot tub, huge kitchen, outdoor entertaining spaces…The house is incredibly clean, comfortable, and well laid out, with a superbly appointed kitchen. The bathrooms are large and well-stocked with soaps and lotions. The hosts are incredibly thoughtful, kind and relaxed, and provided everything one could need, from surfboards to coolers to bring to the beach. Highly, highly recommend!

Great house, relaxing stay
We are a family of 6 who had a wonderful stay at Freshwater Beach Living. Communication with Jeeves was great - easy and prompt. The house is spacious and comfortable, filled with natural light and has everything you could wish for to enjoy a relaxing holiday. We all loved coming home to relax in the pool or simply sit and enjoy the surroundings. The views are absolutely spectacular and visible from almost all areas of the house! We'd love to come back one day for some more R&R. Thanks Jeeves.

Wonderful host, amazing place!
First of all Jeeves was an outstanding host. Helping arrange our food shop to even putting it away was a dream start. She was attentive but also distant which was ideal for everyone. The house itself is just great. The photos don’t do it justice. The cupboards are stocked with everything and more that you could need. The facilities have something for everyone. Above all the place is just a dream to sit back, relax and watch the sun and sea from so many places.

Fantastic house for Family Holiday
We had a wonderful stay at this house which has everything you could possibly want for a family holiday. Jeeves is an excellent host and the little extra things provided such as fresh flowers an afternoon tea platter and wine on arrival made all the difference. The blow up toys were already in the spa awaiting our grand children - just a shame the weather was not in our side to utilise the pool but the hot spa had a good work out! Would highly recommend

Sydney Staycation
This was a first class experience for me and my family from start to finish. We could not be grateful enough to Jeeves and her family. We thoroughly enjoyed the house, which has jaw dropping views and a wonderful pool, but for me the location was the best - right in between two of the best beaches in Sydney!! We cannot wait to get back there and my family is now looking to move to the area based on this stay. Could not recommend this house enough to inter-State or overseas travellers, or Sydneysiders, like us, looking for a break from the hussle and bussle of inner city living.

Fantastic place
We have just returned home from 11 nights in Freshwater. The home is perfect for the sort of holday we were after. The beaches are minutes away, the views spectacular, and the sound of the waves at night and the cooling sea breeze are what its all about. The place is easily the best equiped holiday home we've ever stayed in, and Jeeves and Michael are welcoming hosts. Hard to fault.

Absolutely perfect in every sense. Lovely spacious property in amazing location.
We could not have asked for a better place to stay. It was so welcoming one felt completely relaxed upon arrival yet totally pampered. With everything you could possibly want on site there was no need to leave the property, great pool, decks and games room for hours of fun. Within a short walk there were beach pools, sand, surf, cafes, restaurants and shops. We are already planning another trip only longer! You have a truly wonderful place, Thank you so much for everything

The house that truly has it all !...
The pictures of this amazing home speak for its self! But often photos can be deceiving, well not with this place ! From the second we arrived at this house we became relaxed holiday mode was instantly switched on and we settled into “freshwater time” there was nothing that this house was missing weather it be amazing ocean views from every room, to the amazing pool/spa to having a fully stocked kitchen filled with every utensil you could possibly need! The pool room was also a hit! We came with two other families and found it so impressive that there were so many spaces and nooks that you could retreat to if you wanted some quiet time, verandahs wrap around the whole entire house with breathtaking views all around! Nothing was too much trouble for Jeeves and Michael so attentive and helpful! It’s a big thing to say this is the best holiday we have ever had, because we holiday yearly but my husband and I both agree that this totally is! Some of the most special memories have been made with our families this year. Pretty safe to say that it won’t be the last time we come back! since being here I’ve Easily forwarded the details onto 20+ families .. there’s no better form of advertising then true honest word of mouth! And if I could rate it six stars I would ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thankyou again for an amazing get away x

We had a wonderful time at the property owned by Mr. and Mrs. Roberts. The home was spacious and had a gorgeous view overlooking the ocean. It was located near several attractions and features of the locality, including shopping, restaurants and beaches. My wife and I and our three children enjoyed our 12 days on the property and found it to be entertaining, spacious and relaxing. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to get away to an Australian adventure.

In addition to the charming decor, the house boasts spectacular views and we spent many hours lounging in the pool and watching the nearby surfers and beach goers at Curl Curl Beach. We've also enjoyed frequent walks to nearby Freshwater and Manly Beach, as well as the town of Freshwater. We have had a wonderful time here and can't wait to come back!

Would have given 6 stars if we could.
Our family of 6 had the most amazing time in Sydney staying here in Freshwater. The accommodation, location, owners, neighbourhood and neighbours were all outstanding. We have stayed in Australia many times but this was out first by the beach and in a house of our own. We loved every minute of it and hopefully Jeeves will let us come back. The house is spacious, well presented, well stocked with everything we needed and more to have my family over for Christmas Day with an abundance of glasses, crockery, cutlery and serving platters. Loads of entertainment for all and everyone loved the table tennis table. The supply of boogie-boards, towels, buckets and spades meant we were able to be on the beach within a few hours of getting there. Jeeves couldn't have been more helpful leading up to our stay with so many ideas and tips despite having a major holiday of her own to prepare for. Her recommendations were brilliant. We took advantage of the location and got an Opal card for the bus, which is a 2 min walk, and ferry at Manly. We went between Curl Curl and Freshwater beach and enjoyed a few lunches and dinners at Diggers. We are planning a return trip to Aus in the next couple of years and wouldn't' want to stay anywhere else. A massive thank you to Jeeves and her family for giving us an amazing holiday.
