A Home Away from Home

Krystine and Ray’s hospitality truly made our weekend stay feel like a home away from home. The studio is spacious, clean and very comfortable. We really appreciated the small touches that made this place feel like a home (e.g. decor pieces, games, travel brochures and food menus). Would recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful and humble place to stay.

Great location, comfortable stay

Lovely deck overlooking the forest with sulphuric crested cockatoos and crimson rosellas visiting the feeder every evening. Location was at end of dead end street, so very quiet. Rental unit is as shown in the listing, bed was comfortable rooms were spacious enough for all our needs

Appalling review of the Studio it was unfortunate for you that we had to make a claim for damages caused during your stay .. your review seems to reflect a retaliation on your part ..as prior guests and recent guests have given the Studio 5 Stars Your narrative was completely different when you checked out that day ?

Lovely bush setting

This is a very homely property with at the edge of the bush. It's a very quiet elevated setting, with just the sound of bird calls and visits from native birds. It would be a good escape from the Summer heat. Very friendly and relaxed hosts.

A relaxing haven on the Escarpment

LWe were there from the UK for 7 weeks in March & April, unfortunately during the La Niña rains, but that did not detract from the excellent time we had there. Everything we needed was there, it was close enough to the beach and all other amenities when required. We will definitely be back.

Comfortable and well equipped

We enjoyed our stay at Studio 53. We were a bit worried when the temperature forecast was in the 30s but the apartment remained cool with the help of the big fan. It was nice and quiet.

Wonderful, tranquil getaway

My husband and I have stayed here twice now and will definitely be back again. This is a quiet little spot, very easy to access and only a 5 minute drive to the beach with views of the bushland and ocean. The studio is decked out with everything you could need to make your stay comfortable, all the necessities have been thought of - it truly is a little home away from home. The little touches throughout make it a warm, welcoming environment (unlike a stark, sterile hotel room) I'd highly recommend Studio 53 looking for a romantic, restful getaway or somewhere to stay within the Bulli region. You won't be disappointed!
