Perfect spot for a beach stay in Adelaide. Couldn't ask for a better sunset view...and the area is lovely and quiet, but also just a short stroll from the hustle and bustle of Jetty Road. You can walk for miles along the beach path and we had everything we needed for a comfy and happy stay!

Location is excellent -10 minute walk to Jetty Road; right next to beach; we were lucky enough to see dolphins from the balcony, frolicking not far off beach. Excellent amenities. Property was clean and spacious. Fantastic aspect with glass doors over looking the beach and water. Kitchen well equipped. Good secure underground parking.

Beach house

Janelle property manager was very quick to get back to me if I had an inquiry which gave me confidence. Place was nice and roomy, Beach was just across the road which made it easy to take our 5-year-old granddaughter over. Nice walk to shops and parks.

What a view!

Wonderful apartment in a great location. Walking distance to everywhere or just sit on the balcony and people watch! The beach is busy and beautiful. The apartment has been appointed beautifully and thoughtfully. They have have thought of everything. After 8 nights on the road this accommodation is superior.

Fantastic place to stay so much bigger than the photos give it credit for. And secure parking

Beautiful place, so much bigger than the pictures look, beachfront living at it's best. I had friends and family stay with me and we all loved it. And as it isn't mentioned when renting people should know there is secure parking for two vehicles with apartment 3 in the underground carpark with direct access to the staircase from the garage. Can't wait to come stay again soon. Natasha

Perfect if you don't want to be in the busy, hustle, bustle of Glenelg, but close enough for an easy walk to Jetty Road and other attractions. Great place.
