This house is an ideal base for a nostalgic seaside Semaphore experience in terms of both location and decor. Only around the corner from both the beach and the delights of Semaphore Rd, this home is ideally situated. And the quirky retro decor throughout the property was so much fun to discover. Monica was an outstanding host. She couldn't have done more or gone out of her way more to look after and accommodate us. Nothing was too much trouble and we are very grateful. The outside/pool area was such a great space for relaxing and entertaining. Highly recommended. We can't wait to come back! ##### David F. Stayed 10 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Doro F. 12 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### time travel into an visual artist’s imaginary world a most wondrous experience of vintage charm! Monica’s apartment is peppered with drop dead gorgeous time pieces from the 50ies to the 70ies that altogether make this place a real gem. If you like colour, charm, charisma and a hint of kitsch, if you love eclectic furniture and value comfort, cosiness and a superb beachside location, Monica’s place is for you. If you prefer sleek minimalist white new apartment uniformity, not so much. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay, cooked up a storm in the kitchen, had many a vinos by the pool, borrowed a bicycle and even received fresh flowers and lemons off the tree. Loved every minute. Thank you Monica - a place to make memories. Can’t wait to come back. ##### Doro F.
