'Latitude' - Stunning Opera House Views, Designer 2 Bedroom Executive Apartment w/ airconditioning

Great location! Everything was went smooth and easy.

The place was clean and had the necessary amenities. The only issue was the spiral staircase to the bedrooms did not make it accessible to get suitcases downstairs. But this was a minor inconvenience as everything else was fantastic

The geographical location of the flat is perfect- handy for ferries and Kirribilli community. The property was reasonably clean (had to wash all pots and pans before use) and reasonably well equipped. However there is a huge demolition project of an entire block of flats going on immediately outside the property. The noise from jackhammer drills was so loud It was impossible to be inside the property we rented from 6.30am to 5pm daily. We couldn’t hear ourselves think it was so bad. The dust and pollution from the drilling clouds over anything put outside. We’re fairly easy going but this was truly intolerable. Thank goodness we didn’t have children with us. Also the downstairs air conditioner doesn’t work and looks like it hadn’t done so for some time. There were fans but we booked specifically because it said it was an air conditioned apartment and it isn’t.

Nice location and appartment. Marred by overly complicated and unnecessary checking in from Stayz and the place itself not being very clean and in need of a refurb and some extraction sorting out. Smelly damp downstairs (and a pathetic bathroom extractor) and no extraction in the upstairs bathroom at all. One set of keys is ridiculous. No curtains or blind on one winding the master bedroom. An old painting is used! A few nice touches though, all the stuff you need in the kitchen. Soap and shampoo in bathroom. Some beers in the fridge. Great views and location is good.

The apartment is in a great location in Kirribilli, within walking distance of the train that goes across the Harbour Bridge (15 min walk) and the ferry to Circular Quay (5 min walk) - or just walk across the bridge to the Rocks and CBD (30-40 min walk). The view from the apartment is of the bridge and Opera House and is stunning, especially if you go down the hill to the side and rear of the house to a little wharf. Kirribilli has lots of convenient shops and food places including an excellent Thai, Indian and sandwich shop. The apartment itself is well equipped, comfortable and air-conditioned, with a decent kitchen, and a sizeable living room/dining area. Two bedrooms are downstairs - here's the only snag: downstairs is via an iron spiral staircase which is steep and narrow. If you are physically challenged, this may prove too much, and it's surprising how many times you'll need to do the 'journey'. Don't try to take big cases down those stairs - better to use the steps at the side of the house and go through the gate from the street; quite a few steps but so much easier than the spiral stairs. One bathroom is downstairs with an excellent shower, toilet and small sink; the other is upstairs, with a washer/dryer (which takes forever to wash/dry, but is handy) and a decent shower, and toilet. As the bedrooms are downstairs, one of them can get a little noisy due to the footsteps of the neighbours, but the beds were comfortable and the rooms were big enough. There's also a living room area downstairs with couch and TV. All in all, a showcase accommodation; not cheap, but given the location, views and locale, definitely recommended, and Getawayz was great in communicating with us - entry codes, property info, etc. We had a thoroughly enjoyable time in Sydney, enhanced by the property we stayed in.

Really enjoyed staying in this apartment during our visit to Sydney to visit family. Lovely view of the harbour and the Opera House, comfortable beds and well equiped kitchen. Short walk to Kirribilli village for coffee, supplies, the train and ferry. There are two sofa beds and extra linen available which was super convenient, so that our daughters didn't have to share a double bed. My only suggestion would be to provide a few extra towels, tea towels and perhaps a blanket or two as we got a bit cold in the evening. The stairs to the lower level are a little narrow so might be challenging for some guests. Otherwise we would highly recommend and will definitely stay again when we are back in Sydney.
