Beachside Treehouse
Aoiffe was a fantastic host, responsive , super helpful and just a lovely person. Her cute little apartment was well appointed with modern furnishing and appliances and spotlessly clean. Highly recommend! A+++

2bdr few min walk Freshwater / Queenscliff beaches
Perfect! Wonderful location, spacious, with tasteful and comfortable furnishings and touches.

Magical Manly Beachside Apartment
Craig and Wendy were the perfect hosts. The apartment was sparkling clean, beautifully styled and they had thought of everything. Beautiful linen and towels - this place is quality!! This is one of the best Airbnbs we have stayed in. We have found our home away from home when we come to Manly. We can’t wait to come back. Thank you to our wonderful hosts for such a comfortable stay.

Footsteps to Iconic Manly Beach!
We loved staying at Amber's place and will be back for sure! it has a great layout and the location is the best you can find! it had a great bed. As outlined in the description this place does not have wifi and it only has a small heater.

A Charming Apartment
Seriously, if you are looking for accommodation where the host’s have considered everything, this is for you. Lucy’s apartment is a “mini” home away from home. Very much looking forward to another stay in the future. Thank you

Queenscliff apartment with views
Wow! Quiet and peaceful unlike the noise of staying on Manly Beach. Just a beautiful stroll to Manly, the warf, the Corso, great food and cafés, Fresh Water beach and restaurants, and beyond. This apartment offers a balcony with beautiful views of Manly Beach, the ocean, and even a glimpse of North and South Head. The interior is spacious and tastefully decorated. The beds are comfortable and the kitchen is great—offering a dishwasher, full fridge, great cupboard storage space, and washing machine. It’s a bit of a climb to the third floor but it’s well worth it! All three of us thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Luxury Oceanview Penthouse Dee Why Beach
This place was absolutely perfect! It was light, bright, and very spacious, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The views were incredible, and the space was well-equipped with thoughtful touches throughout. We were in town for our wedding, and this home was ideal for the occasion - especially with the amazing natural light for hair, makeup and photos. The host was fantastic, providing clear instructions and going the extra mile by ensuring we had everything we needed, including extra champagne glasses. Highly recommend this beautiful place!

Freshwater Guest House
We had a wonderful stay at Geraldine’s place, it was cosy and clean with all the amenities that we needed. Location was great and off street parking was a bonus. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in Freshwater

Stunning 1bdr w/ Amazing View
Superb apartment. Breathtaking views, very peaceful. The apartment was spotless and homely. Great kitchen, all amenities you could need. Bus stops very close for quick ride to Bondi and a the city. Supermarkets and coffee shops also within a short walk. Great stay. Highly recommended. Thanks for hosting us!

Chic Manly Beachside Retreat for Surf and City
Christian was a great host! He was very responsive and helpful. He provided local recommendations. The apartment is very centrally located and walkable to all the hotspots around Manly. And parking is included, which is hard to find in the area! The place was as described and worked great for what I needed. Thank you, Christian!

between two beaches - Freshwater and Manly
Great location and beautiful apartment. Checked in in the evening but super easy with codes on doors. Very good communication from hosts. My family had a fantastic time.

Manly Local Lifestyle
We loved our little home while staying in Manly. It's not too warm, not too cold; it's furnished and equipped with everything you need (apart from a plug in the sink!), and the neighbours are friendly. Manly is a lovely place and the flat is in a perfect spot, midway between the ferries and the main beaches, and close to the shops. Parking is a nightmare in this area, despite Andrew's kind loan of a residents' permit, but you can get a bus (or a ferry) to anywhere with bus stops all around, and SO CHEAP! So don't hire a car! Andrew was also kind enough to let us delay our checkout for a few hours, as we had a late flight home. Lastly, Sydney is a fabulous city; we couldn't get enough! If we can ever afford to come back we'll want to stay here again.

Comfort, Coastline and Cafes
Fabulous apartment in a very handy location for the beach, shops and bus stop. We felt very at home and appreciated how well equipped the apartment was. Jennie and Ralph were the perfect hosts answering all our questions and nothing seemed too much trouble. Would highly recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Freshwater and we would definitely book again! Thank you so much x

Northern Manly/Queenscliff - Luxury & Views
Great location with amazing views to my favorite beach. The place was just as expected and couldn’t ask for anything more. Julie was easy to communicate with and very helpful. Even going extra in helping us with putting groceries in fridge before we could check in. We hope to be back again.

Luxury Manly Oceanfront Getaway
We loved this bright, clean, comfortable home! Beautiful views and easy walk into Manly. Short walk to Shelly Beach too! Perfect location. Wish we could've stayed longer.

Absolute beachfront luxury Manly apartment
Had a wonderful stay for one month at this Airbnb! The hosts were so helpful, everything about the apartment was carefully thought about with what I needed for the full long stay. I couldn’t recommend enough, the balcony onto the beach has amazing sunrise views of the beach and surfers, with cockatoos visiting everyday. We had a very comfortable stay and the apartment is in pristine condition, you wouldn’t know guests have stayed before and the kitchen is fully stocked with everything from children’s kitchenware to hosting a dinner party! 10/10

Convenient accommodation for business or leisure
It is a very good location in Chastwood, Richard is very responsive and checking in is very smooth. Appreciate that Richard let us have a late check out. The car-parking spot is a bit tricky, need a bit time to park properly, but still better comparing with hotel car parking, as you got your own car parking spot. Overall, it is a nice stay, we will be back in future.

Opera House, Habour Bridge views, Sauna, Pool, Gym
Had a fabulous stay, great location & Jenny responded to all queries very quickly, so helpful.

Beachside Apartment - Centre of Manly
We absolutely loved the central location of this apartment. It is light and airy, well equipped and just as pictured. Elisabeth was a wonderful host who always replied quickly to our questions and did her best to allow for an early check-in as our flight from Austria arrived very early in the morning. If you are sensitive to noise, you might want to think twice about renting this apartment though. Garbage disposal and other trucks can be heard, even with windows closed, as early as 5 am. Add to this the fact that the next-door neighbour seems to be talking on the phone loudly at all times of day and night and on Friday and Saturday nights street noise can get quite loud. If you're not a sound sleeper, this might be somewhat challenging. All in all, a perfect place to stay centrally in Manly when you have no problem with noise.

Spacious Apartment at the Best Location
Fabulous location to explore Sydney. Apartment had everything needed. Loved our stay!

Penthouse Living in the Heart of Surry Hills
Fredericos home was wonderful! The balcony and views are amazing and the location is fab. We managed to lock our phone in the house as we were leaving and Frederico was so helpful in us getting back in!

Studio (balcony)@Manly Beach,Sydney#
Great location just off the Corso, super accessible to Manly beach and the ferry to Circular Quay. Kirsti was a super host, always accessible and responsive and helpful. Would definitely return, enjoyed my stay. Also loved the A/C, needed in view of the late summer weather.

Luxury Apartment Overlooking City and Darling Harbour
Amazing stay, highly recommend if you would like to be close to the action. Place was beautiful, pristine, and John was welcoming. Would not hesitate to stay again.

Stylish Sydney CBD Oasis with Top Floor Views & Rooftop Pool
Rita was an excellent host! Offered lots of suggestions of places to see and things to do. The place was nicely decorated and felt very clean. The bed was comfy. It had everything you would need (chargers, slippers, q-tips, etc.) The location was perfect. Walking distance to most things or the train station was less than 5 minute walk. I would totally stay here again, it felt like home away from home. Felt very safe.
