Stunning, uninterrupted views of beach & surf
We loved Jason’s place. It was so comfortable and so well equipped. Jason greeted us personally and gave us a thorough orientation to his home. He is the ultimate host and we highly recommend his place as the best Manly place to stay.

Absolute Beachfront — The Mona View
We had an amazing time staying at Lucy's beachfront Airbnb! We spent a month there and loved waking up to the stunning sunrise every morning. The apartment was perfect for our family of four, offering everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Lucy was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns. We would absolutely love to return for another beach getaway!

Stunning Harbour View Home on Little Manly Beach
Stunning views and a beautiful spacious home within easy walking distance of beaches, restaurants, shops and Q Station. Peaceful and clean. Thoroughly recommend a stay here!

Manly Beach Retreat - On The Waterfront
I had a great stay at this apartment! The location is perfect—close and convenient to both the city centre of Manly and the beach. The self-contained apartment had everything I needed for a comfortable stay, though it’s worth noting it doesn’t have an oven or air fryer but it had a microwave. I especially appreciated the secure building and access to the gym and sauna, which were great bonuses. Would definitely stay again!

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

Balgowlah Harbour views entire floor
This huge one bedroom apartment was very comfortable and very spacious. Massive living area and big bedroom with full sized bathroom plus 2nd toilet and large well appointed kitchen. There are a lot of personal touches that make the stay very comfortable. The views are beautiful and outdoor area is great. This is a very walkable area to Balgowlah and to Manly with a lot of very regular buses into Manly and the city as well as northern beaches. Our dog enjoyed his stay very much and loved the off leash dog park that was 3 mins away.

Panoramic Ocean Views, Clifftop Location & Pool!
Amazing apartment, sensational view and nathans a great host, really exceeded expectations

Luxury Apartment Overlooking City and Darling Harbour
The apartment was clean, comfortable and in an excellent location. We came for a long weekend from Canberra with our kids. It turned out that Vivid was on and you could see some displays from the apartment balcony. John was very helpful, responsive and attentive, great host

Tasman was very responsive and helpful throughout the duration of our stay and the place was exactly what we were looking for!

The View - Uninterrupted Sydney Harbour Bridge
Really enjoyed staying at the house - view of the bridge is spectacular. We went to two shows at the Opera House and hit the Galleries ... we were able to walk everywhere which was great. Suzanna was great giving us lot's of local recommendations from the pub across the road to high end options. She was very communicative and I couldn't have wished for more from a host.

MANLY BEACH HOUSE - 8 min walk to Manly Beach!
We had a lovely stay at Amanda’s house in Manly. Unlike many Airbnbs the photos don’t always match the actual accomadation but Amanda’s house in Manly actually looked even better in real life. Amanda herself was an excellent host going above and beyond to check us in, giving us local tips and was very friendly. Our children thoroughly enjoyed reading the books and playing with toys (thank you). It’s a short walk to the beach and wharf so you’re really close to all the restaurants without being in all the noise and hustle and bustle. We would have no hesitation recommending Amanda and her house. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you Amanda for creating such a lovely experience

Treetop Water View Sanctuary
I enjoyed dealing with Kate who deserves her reputation as a super host. She was unlike some other hosts I have dealt with very flexible with check in and check out times. I really hope that I have the opportunity to stay in this lovely property again and wish her all the best

Pagoda Point
This property is impressive beyond words and one of the most amazing properties we have stayed in. The thought in design and execution to the highest standard is evident throughout every element of the property. The furniture is unique and of exceptional quality and thoughtfully placed to enjoy every aspect this property has to offer. There are so many activities to do, yet you can also relax and take in the view from the spa or the bath tub. We went to Berowra Waters Inn for an amazing lunch - highly recommended. Our thanks to George, Patrick and Dave for a truly memorable 10th Anniversary experience. We will be back with friends in a few months.

Waterfront Playground
This was the most beautiful place to say - I can’t express how the even though the pictures looked amazing- they didn’t do it justice. We were blown away and that sunset on the water was breathtaking. Felt so homey and we didn’t want to leave. I will be back - just delightful and the host were so kind and accomodating. PLUS SUPER COMFY FURNITURE

Bundeena Beachside Oasis
This was our second stay at Alison’s place and it remains a beautiful spot in Bundeena! Definitely worth it for the back deck alone. We’ll hopefully be back again.

Absolute Tamarama Beachfront on Bondi Coastal Walk
Astonishing view and a lovely host. Thank you so much. We will be back!

Great place! Amazing views. Perfect set up for a family of 4. Would definitely come back!

Beach & Ocean Views, Tamarama - Bondi
I was in town working on a film, Victoria is amazing and The Place! Gorgeous..you get your quiet beautiful view of the ocean and surfers. You can walk over and have a delicious meal or cocktail. I hope to come back, beautiful stay.

Beachfront Penthouse w Huge Balcony & Garage
We stayed at Daniel’s place as a family with 2 young kids. We had a long drive to get there and arrived late so I couldn’t quite work out the check in instructions I messaged Daniel and he replied instantly helping me through it! Lovely large apartment directly across from the beach. Lovely location a bit quieter than the other end but a short walk to everything. There’s a few flights of stairs which we were aware of prior to booking, was a bit tricky with the kids prams and stuff but to be expected! I can’t fault the Airbnb and loved how responsive and welcoming Daniel was :) Bonus that there’s garaged parking big enough for a 4WD. Thanks for a lovely stay.

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
Great space, great location. Will definitely be back!

Waterview Retreat: Free Parking & Near the Mall
