This great looking timelapse. Can anyone tell me how they achieved the stability?

The handheld “hyperlapse” portion was no doubt stabilized in post. Or rather than stabilized, it was probably assembled by hand in post frame-by-frame from a series of stills.

Sounds tedious… but not really. While some of the conventional timelapse shots are longer, the hyperlapse shots are actually really short, only a second or two… maybe three at the most for the longer ones. If you get in the groove it wouldn’t take very long to align/fix 48 frames at a whack in After Effects… or even as Photoshop layers.

Take a look at this Hyperlapse tutorial. Of course, I would just use the Warp Stabilizer in After Effects and save a step:
