The apartment is on the lower floor of a three level home facing east over the Swan River. Access is via an external staircase. It comprises a living/dining room, two bedrooms (one with a queen size bed, the other with 2 large single beds), a bathroom, separate toilet and a combined kitchen and laundry.

Syrena is ideal for people attending sporting events and concerts at the Optus Stadium, located directly across the river.

Syrena has a fully equipped kitchen including a fridge, dish-washer, fan-forced convection oven and 4-burner cooking range.

The main bedroom and the living room open onto a generous terrace on the river foreshore with outdoor dining facilities and a gas barbeque.

Syrena can accommodate a maximum of 4 guests. A collapsible cot can be made available for infants (at no additional charge).

There is free street parking for one vehicle (we will provide a parking permit).

Dogs (not cats) are permitted, subject to approval at the time of your booking and a $15 per night pet surcharge (per pet) - but please note that pets are not permitted in the bedrooms.

Please note that for bookings of 3 nights, there is a AUD$160 short-stay surcharge. This does not apply to bookings of 4 nights or more.

Things to do

* Take a stroll or bike ride along the river. Cast a rod from the jetty, or explore the local wetlands. Kick a footy in the park. Anyone for boules? Or basketball?

* Enjoy a lazy brunch at one of the local waterfront cafes. With luck, a school of dolphins will join you.

* See what's new at the Holmes a Court Gallery - or, for that matter, the Art Gallery of Western Australia.

* Have a fling at Crown Casino - or a round of golf at the riverfront course.

* Take a ferry up the Swan to the vineyards - or downriver to Fremantle or Rottnest.

* Check out the nightlife in Northbridge - or catch a live show at the Concert Hall or Crown Theatre.

* Cook up a gourmet barbeque on the terrace by the river.
