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.

Lovely apartment
This apartment is a little gem in a beautiful quiet location with gorgeous views. Thoughtful touches including a lovely breakfast ensured we had everything needed for our stay. The hosts were great to communicate with and have provided a wealth of info about the local area which made it very easy to plan activities.

Perfect home away from home
This property is a perfect home away from home. The hosts have thought of everything you need while away. An amazing array of breakfast provisions provided including home made bread. There were also all the staples you need in the pantry. Beautiful views and a short walk to the harbour. Beautiful northern beaches close by. Our visit was in winter and even though the weather was wet we still enjoyed our stay. Hope to return one day in better weather!!

About the host

Hosted by Robyn Crow

Host profile image
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.
