This is a very warm and cosy little 2 bedroom apartment. The Host Kevin, is very warm, friendly and welcoming and willing to assist you with any questions that you may have.
The apartment is very well looked after. A nice and cozy 2 bedroom apartment that is nicely set up and furnished will make u feel like you are at home away from your home. It is very clean, tidy and well maintained and is less than 2 Ks away from the Shopping Center and 3.5 Ks away from the main city.
The apartment offers all the basic amenities that you may need including free breakfast that is offered by the hosts.
Overall we had a pleasant and wonderful time staying at Kevin’s apartment and will surely stay there again in the future. This apartment will surely leave you with some good memories of your stay.
A very clean and brand new property. The owners have gone above and beyond ensuring they have thought of everything to make the apartment as comfortable and inviting as possible. The pool is the best in Canberra. We will definitely be back.

It was a pleasure to host you Robert. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and we look forward to the opportunity to host you again.
From the moment we booked this property Kevin was very communicative and professional (this continued throughout our stay).
A very modern, tidy and clean apartment which was perfect for a catch up weekend with friends.
2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms meant we could easily keep in our own space whilst there is also a small open plan lounge room and kitchen area.
Great location, not too far from anywhere!

Many thanks for staying with us Ryan. We look forward to hosting you on your next trip to the capital!
Even though we only stayed at The Hamptons for one night we found communication with the owner, Kevin, was excellent as he was prepared to go out of his way to make our stay memorable.
The property was perfect for 5 of us and very comfortable.
The location to Canberra central was great as all you need to do is catch the light rail nearby and not have to worry about parking in town.
Overall I would highly recommend this property if are staying in Canberra.

Many thanks for your kind reviews Mirella. We look forward to hosting you on your next visit to Canberra.
Saw this advertised after booking similar cheaper one nearby.Attracted by the headline feature of "heated rooftop pool with views" - decided to cancel our original reservation and book this one instead.
Our stay was for Friday night.Host made contact at the beginning of the week with detailed instructions regarding access.
Arrived at property on Friday afternoon and checked-in without issue.The apartment had obviously been freshly cleaned and was tidy.
We couldn't wait to have a swim so 3 of us decided to head to the pool,which we found easily thanks to the detailed host instructions.The pool location and views were as described.To our disapointment however,the pool water was freezing and it was not possible to even enter for a few minutes.
After returning to the apartment, I contacted the host who informed me that the pool heater was in fact "under maintenance this week".I asked why they hadn't contacted us prior to check in to let us know but did not receive a response to this.
Of note - on the way back to the apartment we met two permament residents and asked about the pool - they both reported that the pool is only heated during the winter months and that they had yet to receive a notification from building management that the pool heater had been turned on for the season yet.
Regardless of the reasons for the pool not heated - I expect the host was aware prior to our arrival and should have informed us, especially given this is advertised as the main USP of this property

About the host
Hosted by Kevin Healy
About Your Hosts: Serena & Kevin
Hi there! We are Serena and Kevin. We live and work in the heart of the ACT, and we are passionate about sharing the very best of our city with travelers from around the world.
Our Hosting Philosophy
As avid travelers ourselves, we’ve spent years exploring different corners of the globe. Every stay has taught us something new about what makes a guest feel truly valued, and we have applied these global "learnings" to our curated portfolio: The Scandi, The Hamptons, and The Aristocrat.
Exacting Standards of Cleanliness
We are incredibly particular about the cleanliness and presentation of our homes. We believe a true sanctuary must be spotless. To achieve the premium look and feel we love, we go the extra mile: all of our bed linen is hand-ironed for that crisp, fresh-pressed feel. It’s a labour-intensive detail, but it’s one we refuse to compromise on because we know it’s exactly what makes the difference when you finally climb into bed after a long day.
Our Family & Lifestyle
We are a busy family of four with two daughters, and our home life is rounded out by our love for animals—specifically our beloved Labrador. We are also unapologetic foodies. Living in the Dickson precinct means we are constantly exploring the latest culinary openings. If you need a recommendation for the best local sourdough or a hidden-gem laksa, we are always happy to share our "insider" list.
Our Promise to You
At the end of the day, we believe travel should be restorative. That’s why we’re so obsessed with the "invisible" details—from the high-speed Wi-Fi to the crispness of the sheets. We’ve designed the Dual Sanctuary to be the ultimate urban retreat, and we’re honoured to play a part in your Canberra story. Come for the design, stay for the comfort, and leave feeling completely recharged.
— Serena & Kevin
Why they chose this property
Hi, we’re Serena and Kevin! Based in Canberra, we are a family of four—plus our beloved Lab—with a deep passion for travel, design, and local food. Our experiences abroad have shaped our "Dual Sanctuary" concept: creating a restorative home that perfectly balances shared connection with total privacy.
We are unapologetic about our exacting standards. We personally perform the final inspection of our properties before every check-in to ensure they are spotless. To achieve the premium feel we love, we even hand-iron all bed linens for that crisp, fresh-pressed luxury. We’ve done the work so you can do the relaxing.
The Scene: Dickson & Braddon
We love where we live. You are positioned in the heart of Canberra’s most iconic precincts. Dickson offers a vibrant "urban village" feel with world-class international cuisine, while neighboring Braddon brings a high-energy, artisanal edge.
What we enjoy most is the luxury of choice. You can walk five minutes for an authentic laksa in Dickson or head to Braddon’s Lonsdale Street for craft breweries, boutique shopping, and artisanal coffee. With the Light Rail just moments away, the City Centre and Parliamentary Triangle are essentially an extension of your front door. It’s a neighborhood that hums with energy by day but feels remarkably calm once the sun sets over Mount Ainslie.
We’ve designed this space to be the retreat we look for when we travel. From the premium Nespresso selection to the quiet balcony with a Weber BBQ, every detail is intentional. We’re honored to play a part in your Canberra story—come for the design, stay for the comfort, and leave feeling recharged.
— Serena & Kevin
What makes this property unique
What truly sets The Hamptons: The Dual Sanctuary apart is the intentional balance we’ve struck between shared connection and absolute privacy. In a market of standard apartments, this property stands out through its unique "split-wing" design and our obsessive attention to the details of hospitality.
The "Dual Suite" Advantage Our floor plan is a rare find in Canberra. By separating the two bedrooms with the central living area, we’ve created two distinct private wings. Because each bedroom features its own private bathroom and toilet facilities, it allows two couples or two families to stay together without ever feeling like they are compromising on privacy. It is the ultimate "separate yet together" experience.
Exacting Host Standards We don't believe in "good enough." As your hosts, we are personally involved in the final presentation of every stay.
Hand-Ironed Linens: We hand-iron every bed sheet to achieve that crisp, fresh-pressed luxury hotel feel.
The Personal Inspection: We personally perform the final walkthrough before every check-in to ensure the home meets our strict standards for cleanliness and styling.
A Truly "Stocked" Home We provide a home, not just a rental. Our guests enjoy a pantry stocked with a curated selection of fine teas, a Nespresso station, cereals, and an extensive range of condiments. With a private Weber BBQ on the balcony, an airfryer in the kitchen, and a Netflix-enabled Smart TV with high-speed Wi-Fi, you have everything needed for a restorative stay.
Resort Living & Location Beyond your quiet sanctuary, you have access to the rooftop pool with stunning views of Mount Ainslie, sun loungers, and a communal veggie garden. Located where Dickson’s global dining meets Braddon’s artisanal "cool," you are moments from the Light Rail and the city's best coffee. We’ve designed this space to be the high-end retreat we look for in our own travels.
