    Michy and Paul are such great hosts. They made feel very welcome as soon as I arrived. The backyard cabin is newly renovated. It is very clean, modern, classy and quiet. It is very close to the beach. I will definitely come back again. Thank you Michy and Paul!

    A wonderfully renovated and very comfortable separate flat which we will look to stay at again. Michy and Paul were very nice and accommodating people who went out of their way to ensure we were ok with everything. The location is in a quiet and very pretty surrounding which in future when we have more time we would like to explore more. Overall a very pleasant experience which we would recommend to anyone and everyone.

    Michy's place was so PERFECT! We loved it. Perfect remote location only around and hour from Sydney, the perfect weekend escape. The cabin was beautifully furnished and very up to date. Super clean and with all the basics provided even though there isn't a full cook top facility the local pizza delivery was delicious! The walk across the road and down to the jetty is so beautiful for an evening sundowner and really is the perfect spot to watch the sunset. Thanks again for your welcoming vibe and beautifully equip cabin Michy, we'll definitely be back!

    We absolutely loved our stay at Michy's lovely cabin on Pittwater. It is even more beautiful in real life than the photos show. Michy went out of her way to accommodate us and make us feel at home, and was also very respectful of our privacy. The cabin is a delight, and full of lovely touches that made us completely spoiled. It's literally right on the water too. It rained the whole time we were there but we were so cosy in our beautiful cabin and enjoying cups of tea on the verandah that we didn't care at all. The Yoda Food restaurant in Avalon just 5 mins away is delicious too! Thank you Michy for a wonderful and much needed rest in your delightful cabin xx

    Michy's cabin is very new, clean and equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay (TV, wifi, general cooking equipment, books). The cabin is located in the gorgeous suburb of Clareville, right by the sparkling water and amongst the trees - one of the most beautiful places in Sydney. It's the perfect place to stay if you love the outdoors - you could walk 800m to Clareville beach or take a short drive to many other beaches, explore the coast on a kayak or paddle board, hike up Bangalley head for a striking view, just to name a few ideas. Michy was very kind and always available if we needed anything, but otherwise respected our privacy. We had a lovely stay and would recommend to everyone.

  • Christine

    We were warmly welcomed by Michy to the lovely cabin which is modern, comfortable, clean and beautifully decorated. We had everything we required. The Pittwater area is just stunning and we enjoyed exploring the surrounds, eating out and checking out the boating scene. We had a fabulous weekend and can definitely recommend staying here.

    We recently spent two nights in Michy's backyard cabin and absolutely loved it. It is spacious and beautiful and decorated with love. the bed is so comfy. Heaven! And the location and the area are unbeatable. Only a short drive to great restaurants too. water just across the road. I'm definitely hoping to stay here again.

  • Jenni

    We loved staying at Michy's place in Clareville. It's a lovely self-contained cabin which is very well appointed. Originally booked this place as close by to a party we were attending, however given I was sick ended up staying in ordering take-away and enjoying the space instead. Loved having a cup of tea in the sunshine on the verandah in the morning. Would definitely recommend Michy's place to anyone wanting to explore the northern beaches of Sydney. Tucked away in one of the most beautiful suburbs of Sydney (one I had never visited, despite being a Sydney-sider) with lots to explore nearby.

  • Sarah

    Spontaneously, I arranged for a dear friend who was visiting from NZ to stay on a Saturday afternoon to stay at Michy's cabin on Sunday night! It was smooth and simple and my friend had a glorious time and now I can't wait to try it!! Must book again so I can experience it for myself. Thanks for being so flexible and spontaneous with us xx

  • Pamela

    Michy - very prompt and efficient in her replies. From the time I enquired till the end of my trip which makes things a lot easier as I didn't know what time exactly I'll reach her accommodation. She was informative and told us where to get food. The Thai food up from her place was good! She also allowed me to do a late check out cause I needed to come back to bathe after. Accommodation - was LOVELY. The photos doesn't do it justice at all! Place was super cosy, comfortable and new! I love the electric blankets and the heater. The kitchen and toilet was good too!! Would definitely live here should I be around the area again. Cheers!

  • Heather

    We loved staying here! I never met Michy, but my husband said she was just the sweetest woman ever! She brought us greek yogurt and granola for breakfast which was very sweet. It is across the street from the bay and we even took out their surf skis briefly. We loved being so close to Avalon Beach! Great restaurants and beach nearby.

  • James

    This was a great place to stay for a nice getaway weekend. The area is fantastic, with the beaches a short drive away, and some benches for a chill by the water only 5 minutes walkaway. Michy was great, nothing was too much, and the stay was everything we expected and more!

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Frank

    Michy made as very welcome,the property was as we expected. Every thing we needed was proved ( so clean ). Location was great and Michy told us about great walks near by. Although it may be classed as a back yard cabin it was cute comfortable and furnished with a romantic feel

    Amazing location, really lovely cabin which we found perfect for our overnight stay. Even had room for the portable cot! Michy and her husband were really lovely people and Michy was very willing to help with anything we needed. Only a short drive to shops and beaches and a very lovely neighborhood. Definitely recommend!

    Perfect, we stayed here on our wedding night. The cabin was quiet clean and very comfortable. Michy was excellent to deal with and everything went very smoothly. Would recommend highly.

  • Daniel

    Really loved this place for our stay. Paul and Michy were really accommodating and helpful. Couldn't have asked for more. The place was really nice inside and very clean. A great little spot with it's own access and just accross from the beautiful Pittwater. Avalon cafes and restaurants had us covered all weekend and the weather really turned on for us while we were there. Can't recommend it highly enough, definitely no compaints.

  • Christiana

    Michy was a very friendly and helpful host. She was always happy to answer any questions and make sure we were happy and comfortable. The granny flat was absolutely perfect for my baby girl and I. The bed was comfy, beautiful bathroom, clean, very chic in a great suburb. I loved the mosquito net. Sheets were beautiful to sleep on. Surrounded by beautiful gum trees. Perfect. I'd absolutely recommend people stay at Michys.

    Michy and Paul made us very welcome when we arrived and then left us to enjoy our weekend wedding and discovering the beautiful neighbourhood.

    Our stay at this lovely cabin was made even more memorable by the hospitality of Michy and Paul. Clean and attractively decorated the cabin was very private and a perfect place to rest after a day of sightseeing around the fabulous Pittwater area. Would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable stay.

  • Prani

    We had a really lovely stay at this bungalow in Clareville. It's generous, light and well-ventilated, with many highly appreciated details, including a delicious breakfast, kitchenette at our disposal and kookaburra visitors. Michy is a warm and generous host. We stayed for a long weekend, most of which was spent at the wedding of friends nearby (or associated events), so we didn't get to take her up on her offer of the use of some watercraft, but did get across the road to the beach a couple of times. The area too is worth a scout - a couple of early morning walks gave us a great survey of the widest variety of housing I've seen in one location, set amidst lush greenness and against spectacular views. We'd love to come back some time. The experience left us feeling very spoilt.

  • Cass & Ian

    The backyard cabin was like a secluded writer's retreat! So peaceful and homely, well stocked mini-kitchen too and a beautiful balinese style bed. There's very close by access to an almost private beach and jetty/swimming area, good place to watch the sunset and sip some BYO champers! Michy was a fabulous host, warm and friendly, and not only did she let us check in early, but also gave us a lift to Jonah's for lunch as it's a little difficult to get a taxi in the area. Highly recommend staying here for a romantic getaway from the city!

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Kristyn

    We really enjoyed our stay at backyard cabin by Pittwater. Michy was the most hospitable host who was eager to help us in any way. We would definitely recommend staying there. I would also recommend having your own transport as it can be difficult to get taxi service in the area. Thank you Michy once again!

  • Tess

    Michy's cabin was just perfect. It was a private, quiet, exceptionally stylish little retreat for two, a 30 second stroll to an almost private park and beach over looking beautiful Pittwater. The bed was very comfortable and we had a fantastic sleep. We came and went as we pleased and loved our visit to Clareville. We will just have to make sure we come back to try out the kiosk (walking distance to the cabin), which is suppose to be great for lunch and dinner. Thanks Michy!

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Charley

    Michy is a gorgeous host, willing to help in thoughtful ways to make her guests feel welcome and comfortable. The space is lovely. Quiet neighbourhood very close to the water with good coffee at a nearby restaurant. Other features of the area accessible by bus or car. I didn't want to leave and hope to return another time.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Greg

    Michy's place was perfect for our short stay in the northern beaches. It's really comfortable and we loved the location right next to the water. Arrival and communication were made very easily. All in all we had a great stay.

  • Samantha

    My partner and I came up for the weekend for a wedding - fantastic location for us and the house was just what we needed. Michy was friendly and contactable and even had some milk in the fridge for a cup of tea the next morning. Lovely host lovely house, we would definitely recommend it.

    We had such a great stay in Claireville. Private little oasis in the Cabin. Michy was a lovely host and even drove us to the restaurant we had booked into. Highly recommend.

    Great place with a nice vibe. Loved the location.

  • Carol

    What an absolutely fabulous place to stay. Michy is considerate warm and a genuine lady. From a warm welcome on arrival, milk in the fridge, everything one could desire in the perfect spot to even driving us to our restaurant for dinner she is amazing. The cabin is perfect, it is beautifully decorated. The bed is large, deep and immensely comfortable. It took a real effort to prize my boyfriend away amid grumbles of why he couldn't squat there.....the cabin is reached by the stepping stone path around the main house, through the small garden and sits on its own. It is breathtakingly pretty....has a comfy sofa, a full bookcase, a gorgeous mosquito net that makes you feel like you are lost in the orient falling asleep. I cannot tell you how fantastic this little treasure is we will most certainly be returning.

  • Paola And Arie

    We had a super lovely time at Michy's beach cabin. Location was perfect, just across the road for some lovely quiet beaches on Pittwaters, the interior design of the cabin was spotless and classy and we had all we need to spend a very comfortable week in paradise. Michy and her partner have been amazing hosts, always very kind and happy to have a chat, but also absolutely respectful of our privacy. We would love to stay there again soon!

    We had a lovely time at Michy's. It's a very comfortable place, very quiet little beach across the road, 5 minutes to Avalon's restaurants. Why bother driving hours up the coast when it's right here !

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Genevieve

    Michy was so welcoming and made us feel very at home. The place was just as described- I would add that there's lovely light and air flow she has put mosquito nets over the windows so you can rest easy (if you get bitten alive like me) that you will have a mosquito free environment! We were so relaxed and rejuvenated after our stay (we live in Sydney and are a short drive away). Love the location and I'd recommend going to Clareville Kiosk- walking distance and beautiful restaurant- for dinner nearby.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Mark

    Michy is a 10 out of 10 host in all facets of the local area and making you feel at home, we were greeted by a very cheerful lady that made us feel like we were her friends. The property is exactly as described and very comfortable. A short walk across the road to a wonderful beach location. So if you are into picnic's as we are, this is the place to go. As we had not ventured to the Northern Beaches before, we were so very nicely surprised how beautiful the area is. Every restaurant we dined, the staff and food were excellent. A must to go is the boat house restaurant at Palm Beach WOW views right on the river. We will definitely be going back. Therese and Mark

    Hey Michy. Thanks so much for a great weekend. Your place was beautiful and you were so accommodating. We will be back. Thank you

    Quiet, comfortable and cosy cabin 50 yards from Pittwater and a few minutes from Avalon beach by car. Helpful friendly host, but privacy for those who wish. Very relaxing few days.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Libby

    My partner and I stayed two nights recently and enjoyed our time in the beautiful Northern Beaches. I didn't get to meet Michy personally although my partner did. Communication through messages was always prompt and clear and we arrived late at night with the key left in the door and milk in the fridge for us. The cabin is cosy and had everything we needed. We couldn't get the wifi to connect but it didn't really bother us we were hardly there. I suggest you take your car as the bus only came out the front once an hour. Palm Beach close by is beautiful.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Claire

    The cabin is lovely, really clean and has everything you need (including milk, tea, muesli for breakfast which was really appreciated). It's located right next to a beautiful beach. Michy was easy to communicate with but gave us a lot of privacy. Overall, we would highly recommend her place to anyone willing to spend a long weekend on the Northern beaches.

    Jun 27, 2019

    Friendly helpful host nothing too much trouble. The cabin was lovely, nicely decorated and in a nice quiet area. The beach across the road was great to be able to go for a walk.

    Michy's backyard cabin was brilliant. It was wonderful to be able to walk across the road and launch our kayaks for a morning paddle on the Pittwater. Thank you for making us feel so welcome.

    Fantastic place and Michy was a great host. The Cabin is very clean, beachy and in a great location in Clareville.

    This is a lovely little place for a night away. The cabin has everything you could possibly need - a bed, sofa, dining table, tv and shower. All put together in a small but aesthetically pleasing cabin. Really appreciated that fresh milk was provided plus tea and coffee and very tasty muesli. It has very quite location and perfectly situated for launching a kayak ( across the road). Also 10 minutes walk from the Clareville kiosk for that special meal.

    Michy's place is in a wonderful location, perfectly located for exploring around Pittwater and the coast. It is quiet and extremely comfortable. With lots of windows, the cottage is light and breezy. Everything we needed was there and it is immaculately presented. Michy and Paul were on hand if we ever needed anything, but they also ensured we had privacy. A perfect mix! The beach is just a minute away (across the road) and is a lovely spot to sit. Although we had a car, the local bus stop is just across the road. We could not fault Michy's place and look forward to the next trip.

    We have just spent a wonderful month with Michy and Paul. Their little studio was even better than described with everything necessary for our comfort. I had a health issue during our stay and Michy and Paul went out of their way to help. We highly recommend this accommodation for its proximity to beautiful scenery and beaches as well as the pleasure of meeting our kind and generous hosts. We have become true friends! Thank you both so much.

    Thanks so much for having us Michy! We definitely recommend this gorgeous place, everything was perfect! Must use the surf skis on the bay across the road.

  • Jeff

    Michy was very welcoming and our accommodation was perfect for visiting family , kicking back and taking in the wonderful environment in and around Clareville. The cabin was spotless , bed was very comfortable with everything we required. We had a hire car but a bus stop was right out front for trips to the city or nearby Avalon and beyond. Area was restful and we felt right at home with privacy but knowing Paul and Michy were a text away if required. We would certainly recommend this cabin to others and would like to visit again soon.

    Jun 27, 2019
  • Jo

    The cabin was clean and cosy and the bed is very comfortable. Very clean and new bathroom. I didn't get to meet Michy in person but she seems lovely online and is great with communication. Only thing is the wifi was pretty much non existent.

    What a wonderful stay! Quiet, clean and just a beautiful cabin. Location was fantastic with Taylor's point opposite and within close distance to Paradise Beach and Clareville Beach. Michy and her hubby were lovely hosts and very helpful. It's one of the best stays we've had!

    This is a really lovely cabin in a beautiful part of the Northern Beaches. The cabin is in Michy and Paul's backyard, entirely separate to the house but Michy and Paul are there should you need anything and they are lovely and friendly. Pittwater is just across the road; fabulous beaches and Avalon village with excellent restaurants and cafes are only a few kms away. The cabin is clean and comfortable for singles or couples. Beautifully decorated. Sitting on the verandah in the afternoon sun listening to the birds...paradise.

    Place was lovely with everything you would need for a night or two away. Can highly recommend a pre-dinner drink across the road at a little private beach followed by dinner at the Clareville kiosk which is only a few minutes drive from here.

    Michy and Paul were warm and welcoming hosts and made us feel right at home in their stylish cabin. It's in a great location with a secluded beach across the road with stunning views of Pittwater and beyond. We really enjoyed our early morning paddle on their two surf skis and some fishing from the nearby wharf. The perfect base for a relaxing getaway - I'm sure we will return.

    A beautiful location and Michy and Paul were kind hosts. The only issue was the lawnmower man coming through the backyard at 9am. There for some peace and a sleep in but our luck brought the mower man too. Great place though.

    Had a lovely stay. So peaceful, homely and comfortable. Michy and Paul were excellent hosts - lovely people who were only too happy to help but also respected privacy. Highly recommended!

    Wow, stunning area. Can highly recommend Michy’s backyard cabin if you’re keen to chill out for a few days @ Pittwater. The cabin is stylish, private, and functional. In fact, I felt like I was staying at a health retreat! I found the cabin a convenient short drive to trendy Avalon village with cafes, restaurants, and local shops. It was also great to walk down to the Pittwater and swim in the local’s netted beach area. Can recommend booking with Michy who is a friendly, and easy going host.

    We had a fabulous 7 nights in Michy and Paul's leafy, garden cabin. A very cosy, clean, comfortable, quiet and private bedsit cabin, with a washing machine available to use at the house. It was across the road from Clareville beach and the bus stop into Avalon shops where we picked up other bus connections. We had no car and found it very easy to use public transport all over Sydney with the Opal card. Michy and Paul were very friendly and helpful, especially with dropping off something we left behind.......thank you.

    Delightful find Lovely thoughtful accomodation Only downside for those seeking it is that there are no grand views rather an intimate garden setting We loved the little beach for a morning dip across the road

    My husband and I stayed here whilst attending my brothers wedding on clareville beach. The location was perfect, just a short stroll along the beach (at low tide) and we arrived to our destination. The cottage was gorgeous and homely and the bed was super comfy. The cottage felt like a private oasis and Michy was helpful, and welcoming. A great first Airbnb experience.

    A little slice of heaven in one of Sydney’s most beautiful locations. Every aspect exceeded my expectations and I wish I could have stayed longer. The property was spotless, and had everything I needed. I felt right at home straight away.

    Michy’s backyard cabin is in a wonderful location in Clareville, across from a small private secluded beach. Everything is as described and we enjoyed our short trip here. Wonderful hospitality and punctual communication made things run smoothly with no issues with checking in/out.

    Lovely little house in a quiet suburb. The house looks directly into their own home which I did not realise when booking. Apartment is small but enough for a 1 night stay.

    Comfortable and everything you will need for a short stay. Little beach opposite is walking distance and very nice. The cabin faces the host’ s house and that makes privacy difficult.

    5 stars to everything! The space was clean, comfortable and warm considering how cold it was outside! Michy was a wonderful host and my partner and I very much look forward to staying in her beautiful space again next time we travel to Avalon.

    This was our first Airbnb experience and I choose it first on the location close to Palm Beach and also the price when scrolling through. The scroll through price was $110 p/n but there were extras of $35 for cleaning and a $22.15 service fee. These may well be standard Airbnb extras but on a one night stay I guess the cleaning fee to cost of stay ratio seemed a bit high. I knew the total fee before finalising the booking but I guess I would have liked the pricing better if it was all inclusive at $165 and not the $110 plus, plus .... one good flip side is when I shared a screenshot of where we were staying and a few commented that it seemed like great value at $110. The place is very nice and neat. We arrived at night and the host had left the garage lights on so we could see along the narrow path to the shack at the back. Later the lights were off and getting another load from the car was tricky although a flashlight was left on the kitchen table for this purpose. We never met the host but that was maybe due to our late arrival ...but I’m also ok with this as I’m a bit shy and I knew we could contact them easily if needed. It’s an awesome spot very close to a nice dock and a little beach as well as a swimming area. Well recommended!

    Just completed a very enjoyable 3 week stay at Michy's cabin, while visiting family nearby. The cabin is opposite Michy and Paul’s home, but feels private. The property is in a beautiful location right on Pittwater, with good on road parking. The quiet reserve just across the road has lovely views along Pittwater to Lion Island. The cabin itself is compact, stylishly presented, very comfortable and well organised. The decking is a peaceful and shady place to relax during the heat of the day. We found we had everything we needed for an extended stay. Michy was a fab host throughout - always warm & friendly, respectful of privacy but quick to offer help when contacted. We enjoyed meeting her husband Paul and felt honoured when invited to the neighbours pre Christmas get together on the reserve. We had a super time with you Michy, thanks so much! Highly recommend staying here.
