We enjoyed having a glass of wine while sitting on the balcony facing the Tay Turnaround Basin. Perth is a lovely town for walking and the accommodation was centrally located.
We loved the property. It was so unique and quaint. Great getaway

We both really enjoyed the property, spending much of our time like we were at home: just relaxing, cooking food in the really well-equipped kitchen and enjoying each other's company. Writing this review is just leaving me a little bit sad as I wish I could turn back the clock and go back! Perth was a lovely little town to walk around and spend time in. We didn’t have much of an itinerary planned but that was okay - we had an unforgettable time and this property was at the core of what made our stay memorable!

Glad you enjoyed your stay in one of our properties, thank you for your great positive feedback
Great guests! They left the place in very good condition. Thank you for choosing to stay with us. We would be happy to welcome you again in any of our five properties located in the heart of downtown Perth. Highly recommended to other hosts.
The Latakia suite was quite beautiful and comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there. It was well appointed with a real touch of class! And our host, Randa, communicated clearly and helpfully at all times. Perth is an amazing, historic town. It was so great to be able to walk to such a nice variety of excellent restaurants and shops. The only downside was a posted sign saying we couldn’t use the balcony, which would have been lovely, apparently due to repairs or something. Bottom line: We will look forward to a return!
