Great location for beach and getting into Sydney. Jasmin was great with communication and we would definitely recommend her place

Chic Manly Beachside Retreat for Surf and City
This apartment was exactly as advertised. Christian was very pleasant, helpful and accommodating. We have visited Manly several times in recent years and this place is the best. We will definitely stay here again. Thank you, Christian!

The Grand Esplanade Manly Room 122
The Grand Esplanade is a great location, opposite the Ferry Wharf and swimming pool at Manly Cove, an easy walk to the beach, with lots of restaurants and shops very close. Holidays By Etch were very helpful.

Absolute beachfront luxury Manly apartment
A beautiful apartment with terrific views. The host was wonderful and friendly, Annie was there to help at checkin and incredibly responsive. Highly recommend this accommodation and hope to come back soon.

White Haven at Palm Beach - Relax and Reconnect
Beth is a warm and gracious host and the studio is really spacious, with everything you need for a comfortable stay. There was a generous complimentary selection of snacks and fruits, which was an extremely welcoming touch in case you were a bit peckish on arrival. The garden is a beautiful space in which to relax as well - I just wished we'd had time to try out the BBQ! Beth's place is within striking distance of Palm Beach or Avalon Beach and we always walked (allow 30-40 minutes to either); alternatively, the #199 bus services Barrenjoey Road every 5-10 minutes. We found Beth's place to be an excellent base for enjoying and exploring the area and highly recommend this place to others.

The Manly Chic Lifestyle by the Sea
Great accommodation in walking distance to everything you need and want. Clean and comfortable and perfect for our family. Instructions easy to follow and host responsive when I needed to ask a question. No long term parking too close and no parking onsite which made it alittle tricky with small children, however, located right in the heart of Manly. Only steps from the water, restaurants and live music. We had a great time!

Balgowlah Harbour views entire floor
The home is extremely spacious. Well fitted out and with a fabulous harbour seaview and access to Manly (25 min walk along the shore) it gave us a great base to enjoy ourselves. We were 8 minutes walk to Fairlight swimming beach - fabulous! Bob was really pleasant to deal with and gave us some great tips on where to find things and settle in quickly. A great host.

Balmoral Beach Beauty
Amazing location, heavenly! Perfect getaway right by the sea…couldn’t ask for a better home away from home! Truly enjoyed my stay, it had everything I needed and more for my short break. Definitely will be back !
Waterfront house rentals

°• Treetop Retreat + Stunning Pittwater Bay Views
Roslyn was an amazing Host. Very responsive and thoughtful. Made our experience even better as she made us feel at home. The house itself is incredible, light, breezy and uniquely up amongst the trees which made it even more relaxing. Can’t wait to go back!

MANLY BEACH HOUSE - 8 min walk to Manly Beach!
We had a fantastic stay. Amanda was a wonderful host. The welcome pack provided made us feel very welcome. Amanda was quick to communicate and very helpful. We loved Manly Beach and everything is within walking distance. Highly recommend!

Narrabeen Luxury Beachpad
The apartment and the surroundings are absolutely beautiful! The apartment was very clean and well equipped for cooking and it included some basic food, coffee and tea for breakfast as well as essential items for the bathroom. We also received some welcome gifts, which was very appreciated! Francine was a great host and responded very quick to any questions we had. We can definitely recommend this place and would love to come back.

Hillview by Palm Beach Holiday Rentals
The location is amazing. It’s an authentic beach house. One bathroom is outside which was a bit inconvenient in the weather but all in all a beautiful holiday house. Decor is better than most Airbnbs I’ve stayed in. It was good being met at the house to collect the key. Elyse from Palm Beach Holiday Rentals was very friendly and helpful. She showed us through the house, help set up the internet on our phones & brought back extra floor towels so that we could dry off and not get water in the house.

Sydney’s Northern Beaches Waterfront Paradise
We had a fabulous stay here, the house is stunning and location is so peaceful. Beautiful view out of the balconies. The house had everything we needed for a big group - it has plenty of space, great layout so all of the bedrooms still felt private. Great recommendations for things to do when we arrived too. We particularly enjoyed going out on the kayaks! Lots of beautiful beaches nearby, the closest grocery store was just a few minutes drive. Would highly recommend this to anyone looking to stay in the area.

Absolute Beachfront Luxury in Narrabeen
We loved our stay at Narabeen, easy parking, spacious, clean, and the location is perfect - right at beach front. Our family enjoyed our stay there, kids had fun learning surfing and playing the water , parents enjoyed the view from the garden and the walk along the coast. The house is fully equipped with dishwasher, aircon, etc; which made our stay comfortable. James is also a super host, called us before and after our stay to make sure everything works well. We def. looking forward to book the place again.

Freshwater Beach House - footsteps to the sand.
From the front door to the back door everything about the property was perfect it certainly made for the perfect weekend to complement our son's wedding. 'Just Perfect'.

Ms. Robyn was an exceptional, kind host! This location was peaceful & beautiful! If we decide to come back next year, we will look up this location again.

Waterfront Apartment on a quiet cul-de-sac
My wife and I stayed a week, and really enjoyed the stay. The house works well for a couple. We especially enjoyed the open living room, kitchen and dining room. The deck was wonderful too. The area was quiet at night as well. The view is fabulous and is the house's best feature. Even on a rainy day it's still lovely to stay inside, drink some coffee and read (as well as take in that view). We enjoyed walks around the Potts Point neighborhood, and it's a nice walk to the Wooloomooloo Wharf, RBG, the Art Gallery, and the Opera House/Circular Quay. There are a couple of fans, but during the mid-summer months heat might be an issue. During our stay the temperatures were moderate, and just opening the windows to catch the breeze made the house comfortable. The host was first-rate: attentive, friendly, and responsive. Thanks.

Stunning Bondi Beach Ocean View full apartment
Amazing view, great location for walking to shops/ beach/ Brontë walk. We just loved our stay. Apartment was super clean.

Waterview Retreat: Free Parking & Near the Mall
Great stay with access from the warf and bus stops. Host was very responsive and made sure everything was right. Loved the proximity to several great eats and a grocery store. Will definitely be my first pick for the next stay.

Lux Home. Harbour Views & Parking. 3Bed2BathOption
Had a great stay at Elisa's flat. Great location for getting around Sydney and easy walk to the ferry which is spectacular trip to Circular Quay in only a few minutes. View from the balcony is amazing. The flat was really well presented and clean. Would recommend this flat to anyone looking for a base spot to visit Sydney.
