Stays with a point of view.

Four boutique properties across Perth, designed and hosted by me. Eight years, more than 1,600 guest reviews.

These are homes I would want to stay in myself. Layered, considered, full of things with a history, in suburbs where you can walk to good coffee and quiet streets in the same morning.

Stay a night. Stay a week. Stay long enough to forget you're a guest.

What My Guests Are Saying

Cassandra

The Sapphire House

“Booked on behalf of my parents. Mum fell in love with the place as soon as she walked in. From the old fashioned light switches to the deep kitchen sink and the fireplaces. A definite stay worth every penny.”

Jacqui

The Sapphire House

“Just as beautiful as the photos. The space is clean, stylish, and the outdoor space is private and serene. The location is fantastic and close to local cafes and restaurants. The host is incredibly welcoming and responsive, ensuring everything was perfect during my stay. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”

Margaret

The Sapphire House

“Beautiful home and a 5 minute walk to restaurants, coffee shops, supermarket, hairdressers, nail salon. I loved the seating areas outside in the garden and veranda too. There is not one negative aspect about this beautiful home.”

Melanie

The Sapphire House

“Loved staying in this house, it is delightful. A beautiful house in a great location. Walking distance to shopping, cafes and parks. Great set up, really good kitchen and included everything you need.”

A Personal Approach to Every Stay

Delicious spaces. That is the test I keep coming back to. Not luxurious, not expensive. Delicious. Rooms with depth and interest that slow you down without asking.
I have reimagined a lot of houses and built a few from scratch. These are the four I kept.
