Ocean and beach views

Guests say the views are lovely.
Wake up to sweeping ocean views from this breezy top-floor studio, perched above Sydney’s Northern Beaches. Laid-back, sun-filled, and effortlessly coastal, the home opens onto a private balcony—perfect for firing up the BBQ or soaking up the salty air. With off-street parking and everything within walking distance, you’re just a five-minute stroll to Dee Why Beach, a scenic 15-minute walk to North Curl Curl, and surrounded by renowned restaurants offering fresh seafood and global bites.

The space
Positioned on the third floor with stair-only access, this studio is your front-row seat to Dee Why’s spectacular coastline. Inside, unwind on the comfortable double bed with soft linens and stream your favourite shows on the TV. Step onto the private balcony to watch surfers at sunrise, enjoy sweeping ocean views by day, or fire up the BBQ for an alfresco meal as the sun sets.

The kitchenette includes an induction stove, microwave, and basic cooking essentials—ideal for preparing a casual meal or beach picnic. Chat over wine at the three-seater dining table or settle into the sunlit benchtop nook, perfect for remote work with an ocean backdrop.

After a day out, refresh in the compact bathroom featuring floor-to-ceiling faux-marble tiles, a handheld massage showerhead, and plenty of storage for your essentials. A tallboy chest of drawers helps keep your space organised during your stay.

Additional conveniences include a shared laundry for longer stays and a carport for easy parking. For cooling, the studio benefits from strong natural airflow thanks to its elevated position and ocean-facing windows. A portable air-conditioning unit is also provided for extra comfort, but please note it can be quite loud when in use.

Guest access
During your stay, you and your group will have the entire apartment to yourselves, as well as access to the building's shared laundry facilities. Please make yourselves at home!

Other things to note
Please read and respect the house rules. This is very much appreciated, thank you! Before your arrival, we will also share a house guide that contains instructions on how to access the property, use certain appliances, and anything else you may need to know.

As of 2025, we have upgraded the sofa bed to a new double bed.
