Romantic Ocean View Studio @ Stanwell Tops

This luxuriously presented self-contained Ocean View studio set upon the Escarpment offers you the WOW factor for that romantic escape. Wake up from luxurious Sheridan bedding and gaze in awe at the finest natural outlook in the Illawarra, from the rainforest canopy to where the sea meets the horizon. Enjoy a lovely morning walk along the quiet street popping into many of the little secret lookouts over Stanwell Park Beach.
Longview Lodge is set within minutes to many of the region's attractions, being opposite Tumbling Waters Retreat, it is ideal for those wanting their own space while attending events. The popular Wodi-Wodi track is also at the end of the street. It is also just 3 minutes drive to the famous Bald Hill lookout where you can get breakfast or lunch from the Cafe and watch the seemingly still postcard view and be enamoured by the hang-gliders, or simply the trains snaking their way around the mountainous terrain. The lodge is also 4 minutes drive to the beginning of the Otford entrance to the Royal National Park for the Coast Walk and Figure 8 Pools, 4 minutes to Stanwell Park Beach, or you may wish to drive the Grand Pacific Drive over Sea Cliff Bridge and stop at one of the many oceanfront pubs / restaurants from Clifton to Thirroul. Symbio Wildlife Park is also just 3 minutes up the road. Swimming, surfing, hang gliding, hiking, mountain biking, horse riding, paintball and bushwalking are all accessible within a 5 km radius.
Local shopping is also just a few minutes drive away with Coles at Helensburgh, a local butcher and bakery and bottle shop, as well as a service station. Wollongong is a 20 minute drive via the M1.
There are amazing restaurants and cafes in Helensburgh and Stanwell park for breakfast, lunch and dinner. All just a 5 mins drive from your doorstep.
The Studio features an en suite, Sheridan bedding and bathware, air conditioning, 68” OLED Smart TV with Netflix, Queen size bed, wardrobe with safe. A beautiful leather sofa transforms into a queen size bed for those extra guests. The main window operates with remote control blinds so you can wake up to the gorgeous view without stepping out of bed. A cosy dining table complements the view if you wish to enjoy a candlelit dinner whilst taking in the beautiful colours of dusk descending over the ocean into a twinkling of ships awaiting port. The room also comes with a multi-function microwave featuring air-fry, grill and oven modes, the room also boasts a coffee machine with pods available, teas, instant coffee, cutlery, water and a bar fridge stocked with sparkling mineral water. The studio also has its own separate entry.
As an added bonus you may have the opportunity to be acquainted with "King Cashie", the resident cat. Warning he's very adorable! Cashie is always up for a cuddle or some food but not necessarily in that order. Cashie has a big brown pillow on one of the deck chairs in the Gazebo. Please remember to remove it and place down the charcoal cushions that are provided for your personal use during your stay.

Was lovely and unique place to stay. My only issue was the bathroom mirror is very high and I am not tall. The lighting could also be better for me to do hair and make up. Apart from this the location and facilities were excellent.

Relaxing Getaway with a Fantastic View
We are SO GLAD we decided not stay in the city and instead book this accommodation for our vacation. The place is beautiful and the view is even better! The host is organized and made us feel welcomed from the first day we got there. We would definitely return should we return to the area!

Beautiful Place!
There aren't enough stars to express how amazing Rob's place and his ability to host the house. The location is fantastic. There are beautiful beaches and views close by and Rob is incredibly kind and thoughtful. We would love to come back to stay in the future!

Perfect getaway
Absolutely no complaints. The room was very comfortable and well appointed. Very ingenious use of space. Gorgeous ocean views in a wonderfully quiet neighbourhood. Couldn't ask for more.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Amenities
Quality fittings, furnishings and beautiful window view but otherwise mediocre. Misleading false primary photo showing table and seating, toilet located in small frosted glass cupboard in front of the TV. Very inconvenient neck breaking position to watch TV. All adds up to a very diappointing overpriced unit.

Property was cute and great for a couple. A bit of a distance to shops/restaurants so be sure to be self sufficient or prepared to drive. Beautiful outlook and comfortable stay. Great base to explore the Illawarra escarpment area. Clear communications with owner and easy checkin.

Neat and modern
The place was great, plenty of amenities and very clean. Parking on street was easy and check-in/getting in was simple. The only thing missing from this place was a kitchen sink - super hard to wash dishes in a small sink that is also used for bathroom and hand washing.
