Barefoot in Bronte IH
What We Love
This Bronte dreamy beachside oasis is the ideal holiday apartment for anyone looking to discover the heart-capturing suburb that is Bronte. Split across two levels, this apartment sleeps 4 and is a true retreat. Immerse yourself in your very own private garden or entertain at your leisure on deck, overlooking the breathtaking views.
This retreat is perfect for families or those who need a working holiday. Featured in the main bedroom across a layered level is a home office with a scenic backdrop. When taking that much-needed break, the expansive main bedroom is also fitted with a mini kitchenette and a timeless clawfoot tub fit that will soak away the stresses of any day. Named one of Australia's top suburbs to live in, the beachside suburb has a relentless charm about it. Bronte is home to the Bronte baths, an enclosed pool perched in the edges of the sandstone cliffs. The baths are open to the public and fitted with hot showers for that luxury Sydney touch.
This pocket of Sydney is home to infinite places to eat, local artisans and cafes for every occasion. The unspoiled area of Bronte is home to the feeling of Summer all year round. Take one of the many nature walks or discover the marine life that swims around in the endless rock pools on every beach. Whether it be relaxing at the beach or discovering local favourites, there is always something to do at this oasis.
*Please note* Due to structural and safety concerns, there will be no access to the upstairs balcony leading off the main lounge room. The nightly rate of the property has been reduced to reflect the balcony being locked and therefore, there will be no further compensation provided for this area not being able to be used.

Home Truths: - Please note there is No Air Conditioning in this property. - Street Parking only - The building is approximately 100 metres from the street down a small slope. There are also approximately 30 steps with a landing in between to break the steps up. The property is then located on the ground floor of the double storey building. - There is remedial work required to be completed on the top balcony so this is currently out of use other than to open for fresh air.

Holiday and visit with son
The property had a really cosy feel with a good view of Bronte Beach. Spent a lot of time watching the surfers from the balcony. Nearby shops and cafes were very good. A very nice place to stay!The property is set back from the road and entails a number of steps and a small incline which requires a bit of effort.

The low rating is because the property approved 4 adults + 1 pet only to find out that months later they don't allow dogs to stay at property. I don't understand why our dog was approved in the first place. Would not recommend.
