LIVING ROOM:
The living room has a Sony smart TV that you can use to access your Netflix and has access to all local channels. Note that we don`t provide Netflix, YouTube and other online streaming platforms subscriptions so you will have to use your own account.

LAUNDRY AREA:
A washer and dryer are available to use, as well as an iron and ironing board.

PARKING:
The parking garage can fit up to 1 car and quite a lot of free 1H/2H parking around the area.

There is a key safe for self-check-in. Only 1 guest key set is provided. Please take care not to lose the keys as their replacement will incur a fee. Losing the key set or leaving it inside the apartment will incur a minimum of $355 charge.

I am available mostly through booking platform messaging but I give privacy to my guests. If there is an urgent issue, you can always call me.

I have been living in Canberra for quite some time now and can help you navigate your way around the local area if you need me. I can also provide you with tips on the best places to go for food or just to have fun!

Located in the Pier development on Kingston Island, this is a superb mixed-use building on the waterfront and has become one of Canberra`s most coveted locations. The Kingston Foreshore features waterfront cafes, restaurants and bars, along with a mix of art and cultural activities.

You can catch the bus (from Wentworth Ave) in the Kingston area. It will take approx 20 mins to reach the city by bus, 7 minutes by car/taxi/uber or around 50 minutes walking.

Any violation of our no-party rule will result in a $2000 non-negotiable penalty, in addition to any damages.

Please do not flush wet wipes, paper towels, or sanitary products. These cause blockages in the sewer system. Dispose in the bin provided.

A fantastic property. The bathrooms however are in need of minor repairs. Towel rails broken/ missing, shower head leaking and shower could use a regrout to eliminate mould in grout and larger shelf. The bathroom does not reflect a five star property. A great shortage of power points causes a need for a lot of extension cords that are not adequate, messy and need to be hooked up for at least one bedside table…potentially dangerous with lots of power boards and extension cords and a trip hazard. Unfortunately a 5 star property is let down by these points

This was our second stay and we loved it just as much as the first. The location is fantastic, and the space was perfect for our family of four. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Great location

Property is in a great spot close to restaurants and central to everything. The apartment had a few minor issues. Dryer not working, few bathroom fittings missing (towel rack), and the fry pans not washed in cupboard.

Great Canberra Experience

Excellent unit in handy location overlooking Lake. Unit was clean and roomy, close to cafes and restaurants and walking distance to some local attractions. Communication was easy and very responsive. Would stay again.
