# Bondi Casa > 18-room hotel above the north end of the beach in Bondi Beach, New South Wales, Australia. IMPORTANT: Bondi Casa is a demonstration property built by Visaible to test how AI assistants read and refer to hotel websites. It is not a real hotel, it is not at the address shown, and it cannot be booked. There is no aggregate rating, no review and no guest testimonial anywhere on this site, deliberately: invented praise for a property nobody has stayed in is the single most repeatable falsehood a site like this could publish. ## Property - Address: 27 Ramsgate Avenue, North Bondi NSW 2026, Australia - Coordinates: -33.888, 151.279 - Rooms: 18 across 4 categories, in a building from 1936 reopened as a hotel in 2021 - Check-in 15:00, check-out 10:00 - Rates from AUD 310 to AUD 980 per night - Dining: Sal, 38 seats, dinner Wednesday to Sunday - Telephone +61 2 5555 0180 and email stay@bondicasa.example are unreachable by design - Walk to the beach: 4 minutes.

Here is what each part of the year actually looks like. - [Getting to Bondi from Sydney Airport](https://www.bondi.casa/journal/getting-to-bondi-from-the-airport): Three ways in, and the one everybody gets wrong. What each actually costs in time and money. - [Walking Bondi to Bronte](https://www.bondi.casa/journal/bondi-to-bronte-walk): Six kilometres, two hours if you stop, and the single best thing to do here that costs nothing. - [Where to swim at Bondi](https://www.bondi.casa/journal/swimming-at-bondi): Between the flags, in the pools, or not at all. Bondi's rip is famous for a reason. ## Questions - Where exactly is Bondi Casa? 27 Ramsgate Avenue, North Bondi, up the hill at the northern end of the beach. It is four minutes on foot to the sand at the north end, and nine to the start of the Bondi to Bronte coastal walk at the other end of the promenade. - What are the check-in and check-out times? Check-in from 15:00, check-out by 10:00. Both move when the house allows it — tell us your flight and we will do what we can. Bags can be left at the desk on either side. - How many rooms are there? Eighteen, across four categories: seven Courtyard Rooms, six Ocean Rooms, four Terrace Suites and one Casa Loft. The building went up in 1936 and reopened as a hotel in 2021. - Can children stay? Yes. Terrace Suites sleep three and the Casa Loft sleeps four; Courtyard and Ocean Rooms are for two. There are no cots in the building, but we can have one delivered with a day's notice. - Is there a television in the room? No, in any room. It is the thing guests write to us about most often, in both directions. Wi-fi is unmetered and fast enough to stream on your own device. - How far is Bondi Casa from Sydney Airport? About 30 minutes by taxi or rideshare without traffic, and up to 50 with it. Expect $55 to $75. By public transport it is a train to Central, a change to Bondi Junction and then a bus — roughly an hour, and fine only with hand luggage. - Can you get to Bondi Beach by train? Not all the way. The line ends at Bondi Junction and the last leg is the 333 or 380 bus, or a ten-minute taxi. There has been no station at the beach since the tram line closed in 1960, and the argument about building one is older than most of the buildings. - Is there parking? Four off-street spaces, $35 a night, booked ahead — they go quickly over summer. Street parking in North Bondi is metered and resident-restricted, and the fines are enforced properly. - How far is the city? The 333 from Campbell Parade is a prepaid express to Circular Quay and takes about 40 minutes. By car it is 25 minutes outside peak and considerably more inside it. - Does Bondi Casa have a restaurant? Yes. Sal is the ground-floor dining room, thirty-eight seats, open for dinner Wednesday to Sunday and to house guests for breakfast every day from 7am. Non-resident bookings open thirty days ahead. - Can the kitchen handle dietary requirements? With 24 hours' notice, yes, including coeliac and most allergies. The menu is written on the day around what the kitchen bought that morning, so more notice genuinely helps. - Where is it safe to swim at Bondi? Between the flags, which the lifeguards move each morning depending on conditions. The permanent rip at the southern end is the most rescued-from stretch of water in Australia. If the surf is up, use the ocean pools instead — North Bondi's is free, Icebergs charges entry. - What is the best time of year to visit Bondi? February and March: the water is at its warmest and the summer crowds have gone back to school. April to May and September to November are the quiet shoulders, with rates about a third below peak. January is the busiest and most expensive month of the year. - What is the cancellation policy? Free cancellation up to 48 hours before arrival on flexible rates. Advance-purchase rates are non-refundable and say so at the point of booking. Over the Christmas and January peak the window extends to 14 days. - Is there a minimum stay? Two nights over a weekend and three over a public holiday. Midweek there is no minimum. The Casa Loft is three nights year round. - Are pets allowed? Assistance animals always. Otherwise no, because of the dining room and the size of the courtyard. - Is the building accessible? Partly, and we would rather be specific than reassuring. There is a lift to all three floors and step-free access from Ramsgate Avenue to reception and to Sal. Two Courtyard Rooms have roll-in showers and grab rails. The Casa Loft is reached by a private stair with no alternative, and the courtyard has a 40mm lip at the threshold. Full detail is on the accessibility page. ## Measurement This site is instrumented to record how assistants fetch it.
