If I could give Avalon Horizons a 10 rating I would. From the warm welcome from Jack and Diane to the layout with everything on one level to the private pool and the well-stocked kitchen, this is an oasis. Mostly though it is the small touches - the personal card, a great (!) free library and the best binder of any VRBO anywhere. There is a grace here that feels the soul.

We had a lovely stay at Avalon Horizons. Everything was perfect from the location (great views down to Bilgola Beach) and the thoughtfulness of our hosts. We are in Australia for nearly three months but would have happily stayed in Avalon for another couple of weeks.

Jack & Di are excellent hosts. They gave us a very warm welcome. Their apartment is lovely with a real home from home feeling to it, and is exactly like the photos shown on the website. Bath and beach towels, toiletries, tea, coffee and milk were all provided for. They have extensive knowledge of the local area from transportation to the best restaurants around and are happy to advise on this. The location is perfect. Beaches are a 5 - 10 minute drive away, and Sydney is easily accessible by bus, although a car is needed to get to the bus station. Happy to recommend this apartment to others.

This was the perfect place we needed to go to unwind, relax and reconnect with each other. Highly recommended for couples to spend some quality time together away from the stresses of life. Wellington definitely recommend it to our friends and family. Jack & Di are both lovely hosts and were a text away if we needed anything.

Avalon Horizons, just a bit below heaven!!

Man, where do we start. Fantastic hosts!! These folks went above and beyond to make our stay pleasurable and fantastically easy. Without them telling us about Serpentine Road we never would have seen a pair of whales on their migration north. Amazing viewpoints and fantastic knowledge. Thank you, thank you! The morning feeding of Rainbow Lorikeets and Kookaburras was also a highlight! If we weren’t so far away we would come monthly! A little piece of paradise!!

relaxing & delightful

my wife and i were after a nice getaway during the school hols what a lovely surprise. jack the owner met us upon arrival and showed us around the property. it was as described and so clean, well apportioned and quiet. jack was so relaxed and explained all the ins/outs of the property, best eats locally etc. after that nice intro, we just sat down and chilled, planning that nights dinner arrangements. the place is very warm and quiet. perfect for doing nothing. for our part, we just loved watching the wildlife (ie the cheeky birds chasing a snack) from the balcony, reading indoors & outdoors poolside and checking out the whales on the ocean the views up the coast are fantastic and will keep anyone occupied loved our time away & felt so relaxed many thanx Jack & Di

A wonderful getaway

My husband and I spent a wonderful 5 days at Jack & Di’s. The apartment was clean and comfy, and had everything we needed. We LOVED the views of the beaches and having private use of the pool and deck. The surrounding neighbourhood is beautiful and we enjoyed our daily walks to Bilgola Beach for coffee and breaky. Jack and Di were warm and accommodating hosts and we’d love to come back!

So close to Avalon, Newport and Bilgola to lots of options for where to go. Hosts were lovely, friendly and helpful in pointing out great places to visit and very accomodating for my needs/requests.

Simply stunning

We stayed at Avalon Horizons for 8 nights during a trip to Australia from the UK... Jack & Di are great hosts that have thought of everything in their apartment to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The property is private, with the most stunning views, local friendly birds who come and say hi (if you have food) and it was lovely to be able to just sit and enjoy the outside space. I enjoyed the pool, it was a little too cool for my other half! Only 5 mins drive (if that) to the beach and plenty of shops eateries in the nearby towns. I can’t recommend this property enough if you are looking for a relaxing escape, oh and the bed is the MOST comfortable bed in the world!!! Enjoy! We definitely hope to go back!

Peaceful, panoramic escape

I recently spent four days at Aurizon Horizons for a research/writing retreat. It was everything I expected and more -- peaceful and pleasant, with spectacular views and bountiful bird life. Jack and Di are wonderful hosts and not far away if you need anything. The beach is a 10-15 minute walk downhill and an agreeable workout to return. Nearby Avalon has lovely restaurants and shops. I would highly recommend it to anyone who needs a break from bustling Sydney (or anywhere else in the world).

Perfect rancho relaxo!

We stayed for 3 nights for the Australia Day weekend and the accommodation was the perfect place to chill out. Jack welcomed us and settled us into the place, showing us around then left us to the peace and tranquility of the home. Jack and Di are great hosts who leave you to it, but have made the accomoafatikn very comfortable and homely. We will definitely return to have breakfast on the terrace followed by a swim in our own pool. Perfect way to start the day.
