Patonga Creek Cabin.
Excellent cabin in a lovely tranquil location. Great hosts with everything that you need in the cabin plus more, to have a relaxing time outside of the city. Great for fishing and beach walks, close to amentities if you need to stock up on food too.

Smack Bang on Coogee Beach 2 bedrooms
Absolutely wonderful stay! The space was immaculate, comfortable, and perfectly located. Danny was welcoming and very responsive. Highly recommend! Will gladly stay again when back in the area!

The Manly Chic Lifestyle by the Sea
Marissa’s place was in a great location. Close to the Manly Wharf, Museum and great cafes/Shopping etc. The building is old so it was a bit dark. Bed was super comfy and decor was lovely. The only thing was how tiny the shower and bathroom was but considering the age of the building, it’s to be expected! A tip for Uber p/up and drop/off use the back entrance on Crescent… much easier! Marissa gave me an early ck-in as I was there on business and was really appreciated!

Waterfront on Botany Bay.
Had a lovely time. Host was very friendly and the fish and chips are amazing here! Thank you :)

Stylish, Boutique, Large 2-3 bed & Minutes 2 Beach
Saul was an excellent host and we enjoyed staying in the apartment which was within a short walk of the Manly ferry complex including restaurants and also access through the Manly Corso to main beach.

The Austin Shelley Beach—Oceanfront Loft Home
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great Airbnb in Manly Beach! The location is unbeatable—just a short walk to the stunning beach, amazing cafes, and local shops. Waking up to the sound of the ocean and enjoying my morning coffee on the balcony was incredible. The home itself had everything I needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. Liz is a fantastic host—super responsive, supportive and friendly. I would definitely stay again next time I’m in Australia!

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.

Stunning Manly Beach views - 906 Manly National
Great apartment, with an amazing view, in a great location. I’m a little scared of heights & the apartment is actually much higher than it’s 9th floor location, due to parking & businesses & the railing is very old school, but the view was definitely worth it. The beds were very comfortable. James was a great host. Check in was super easy & James responded quickly to any questions. We would definitely stay here again!

Well equipped apartment with a super sea view, in a fantastic location with only a short walk to Manly’s beaches, shops, restaurants and ferry terminal. Kevin was a super host, very responsive to messages and quick to react to the one issue we asked for his help with. Would happily stay again and have no hesitation in recommending.

The Grande Esplanade room 102
What a great stay in Manly. As many of the other reviewers note, the location is absolutely super. Right across from the Manly Ferry Terminal. Catching the ferry in the morning into Sydney past the Opera house will be a lifelong memory. Strolling the Corso, coffee and pastry in hand, wandering down to Manly Beach - how can you beat that? I also loved that you could rent an E-Bike a couple of doors down to explore the various areas of Manly. Very comfortable, and spacious, I would stay again in a heartbeat. Location, Location, Location :)

Manly Waterfront Beach Stay
We had a fantastic stay at Nina’s place. The view was stunning - we could have sat on that balcony for days watching the sea. The apartment was well stocked and immediately felt like home. The location was perfect - giving us access to all of the incredible restaurants and activities that Manly and Freshwater have to offer, all within easy walking distance. Nina was an excellent host and we would absolutely love to come back next time we visit Manly.

Luxury Beachfront apartment on North Steyne
Absolutely exceeded our expectations. The location is amazing, literally across the road from the beautiful manly beach and a short walk to the shops and restaurants. The apartment itself is even better than the pictures, extremely spacious and comfortable. Also very easy on the eye with designer furniture. Zoe went above and beyond as a host when we left a soggy wetsuit behind and she posted it back to us. Would definitely re book. Thanks Zoe

Brand new | Water views | Beach access
We enjoyed staying here very much. The apartment is very comfty and very nice located between the two beaches at Manly. Safe and very nice neighbourhood. We also loved the cafes around the corner very much. Very local and very close to Sydney downtown by ferry. Since we do lots of sports this is a very good location and base. Highly recommended

Surfways Executive Apartment at Manly Beach
Surfways Manly apartment is absolutely wonderful! A perfect spot for two people to enjoy all that Manly offers. It was the perfect home away from home for my husband and I to spend a month there. The apartment is beautiful and modern. Everything is at a high quality and Robyn has kitted it out with everything a guest could need. The building has an incredible location (and views!) right across the street from Manly Beach and is walkable to everything. Lots of nice coffee shops and restaurants nearby. We really appreciated how there were kitchen and bathroom supplies provided for our long stay (like coffee pods, plastic wrap, salt/pepper) and there were even snacks/drinks that welcomed us! Robyn is an incredibly thoughtful and friendly host who made us feel so comfortable throughout our stay. She was always responsive and would check in to see if we needed anything. Many thanks, Robyn, for your warm hospitality. It was so hard to leave! Highly recommend and we hope to return!

Manly Beach Studio with Balcony
Thank you Dolores. We really enjoyed our stay in your lovely apartment. It is in a great position in beautiful Manly. Dolores is a very responsive host.

Chic living on Manly Beach
Great location directly across the road from the beach and within the action. A great choice of restaurants, pubs and shops at the door. Coles supermarket a minute’s walk away. The bedroom and bathroom are small but the apartment the equipped with everything you could ever need - a wide range of toiletries, stationery, beach gear, Opal transport cards, yoga mat, milk and wine in the fridge. The easter eggs were a lovely surprise! The bed was comfortable and the bedroom window is double-glazed to block out any noise. The bedroom has an air conditioner. Check in and check out was super easy. Salli gave clear instructions and was responsive.

Manly Wharf Water Front Views + Free Parking
Great location and easy walking distance to everything Manly has to offer. Room was spacious and had everything you could ask for in an apartment. Pullout sofa bed was extremely comfortable and there was plenty of linen and pillows. Bonus good quality body wash and hair products supplied. The only downside to the apartment was the Bus stop opposite the room as it becomes noisy in the morning so if your looking for a quite sleep in bring ear plugs
