Our home

Our apartment is located right on the Southport Broadwater. The building has just six apartments, with one occupying each floor. The lift opens directly to our private entrance, providing exclusive access to the apartment. Quite an old building but it would have been fancy back in the day. Wrap around balcony, super breezy with beautiful views of the water.

Our apartment is located right on the Southport Broadwater. The building has just six apartments, with one occupying each floor. The lift opens directly to our private entrance, providing exclusive access to the apartment. Quite an old building but it would have been fancy back in the day. Wrap around balcony, super breezy with beautiful views of the water.

One main bedroom and separate main bathroom, open plan living with kitchen, laundry off the kitchen, and a 2nd bedroom with ensuite which is used as a spare room/office and the cats bathroom.

We also have great neighbours in the building and we all look out for each other and have a group chat which we can add you to for the duration of your stay. Limited parking in the driveway (2 spots) and my underground car space will be unavailable, but street parking is free and has never been an issue over the 2 years we have been here.

We are vegan and would prefer someone who is at least vegetarian so we don't have dead animals stored in our fridge/freezer. If you can refrain from eating meat in our home for 10 days you're okay! There is also a communal pool which is barely ever used by anyone in the building. One thing to mention - the main shower has awesome water pressure 😎.

favoriteWhat we love about our area

Peaceful early mornings with amazing sunrise over the water. Great balcony for an afternoon wine. Dolphin spotting direct from our couch. Close to Aldi, 10 min to Harbour Town with everything you need.

Our pets

CatsCats (2)
Two Arabian Maus - Brother Iggi and sister Zafi - Born in Dubai 2020, now expats in Australia since 2024. Both super affectionate and 'relatively' needy for love and attention. It's important to us that they are both treated like the children they are to us whilst we are away. They need lots of human interaction but are also totally contempt with sleeping all day in the sun alone or cuddling up together. They both love cuddles, and will always want to be on top of you, so it's important for us that our house-sitter is comfortable with this (They sleep on our bed & Zafi tends to sleep in between us 😅). On top of that, we just like to keep the house nice and tidy, and as hair free as possible (which is pretty much impossible 😅). Iggi likes to meow and loves his biccies, whilst Zafi is more of a sweet baby girl. Iggi was on anxiety medication but he is off it atm - We have the pills here if he ends up getting stressed when I do leave, but he's very good at taking tablets (they're tiny also).

Our garden

local_floristGarden or plant care

Minimal - We have a few indoor plants and cat grass which needs watering.

Important info

Vegan/Vege home - No cooking or storing of dead animals.
Two of our sliding doors going on to the balcony need to be replaced as the wheels are cooked - hopefully should be sorted with RE beforehand - Still usable but an effort. Main bedroom sliding door is fine.
