Reviews

  • Reviewer: Philip

    Comments: Gail’s Guest House is a hidden gem in a beautiful garden setting. The space is brand new and was immaculately presented, with a lot of attention to detail. Gail and Kim were very accommodating and Gale baked fresh bread, which was a nice surprise. The location is great, close to the airport and only 5mins walk to some really nice beaches. I would highly recommend this place for a weekend getaway or longer.

  • Reviewer: Garrison

    Comments: This private & quiet retreat offered a pleasurable solace, but so well situated being a short walk to the beach, golf course & local cafes. Gail & Kim were delightful hosts, & very accommodating. Highly recommended!

  • Reviewer: Tracey

    Comments: Gail’s place is fantastic! The beach is just down the street and the bus stop is nearby. I found it easy to commute into downtown on the L94. There is great food and drinks within walking distance as well! The cabin is really nice and sparkling clean and I was more than comfortable.

  • Reviewer: Kathryn

    Comments: I just love Gail’s place and Malabar is such a relaxed part of the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney ... The perfect spot to stay in every way.

  • Reviewer: Maxime

    Comments: Petite maison en arrière-cour, très privée. On y trouve tout ce que l'on a besoin, et même un peu plus. La cuisinette est complète, le réfrigérateur comporte plusieurs items essentiels au petit déjeuner, on y trouve café, pain, œufs, beurre, céréales... le lit est confo, la climatisation est puissante, la propreté est parfaite. À 20 min de voiture du centre-ville de Sydney. J'y retournerais sans aucune hésitation. Et les hôtes sont supers!

  • Reviewer: Christophe

    Comments: Thé place is convenient, very clean, located privately at the end of a very nice little backyard. The owners gave me useful orientation. Goodies were awaiting both on the pantry shelf and in the fridge ! They lent me a rechargeable bus/ferry card on top of a few maps. In case you lose some hygiene items, a number were available. Air conditioning worked well. Place to park for me. Super.
