Waterfront Apartment & Garden
We stayed here in this unspoilt part of paradise for 4 nights and everything that we experienced from location, weather and amenities of the home were beyond our expectations and made our time here very memorable. Highly recommend Anne's place for a very relaxing and peaceful time away. Thank you Anne for your communication before, during and after our stay.

Wombarra Ocean Retreat
If you like sweeping ocean views, short bush walks to the beach, and sleeping with the sound of crashing waves, this place is for you! We had a great weekend stay. The unit is really nicely designed with lots of natural light and lots of ocean through the windows, great screened louvered windows for letting the sea breeze in. It’s a 10 minute walk from the train station; getting back up the hill to the station is a great workout with bags and a pram. The Bowlo is very close to the house and a must. Good Thai food, good atmosphere. Also an easy walk to a couple coffee shops and good fish and chips. Gary and Cathy are very communicative and welcoming. We recommend!

Newcastle Beach Apartment (No airbnb FEES)
The place had a awesome 🤩 beach front view,Colin’s place is definitely worthy for your stay

Manta Rays Pad. Absolute beachfront luxury living.
OMG..... the apartment was absolutely stunning in an outstanding location. Everything was perfect and Jen was very attentive, we had a peaceful getaway. Thanks Jen, for sharing this piece of heaven with us...

Balmoral Beach Beauty
An excellent location for a stay alone or if you are coming as a couple! Very close proximity to the beaches and short drive to Balmoral baths! I enjoy fishing so being able to go to a location like Balmoral baths for fishing was truly an amazing experience for me! Would love to be back again in the future!

World-class Sydney Harbour View-SuperHost
Very good communication from Nina, and we loved the location.

Breathtaking Sydney Harbour View! @StaySydney
Great apartment with the most amazing views: we were lucky enough to be there on the opening night of the Vivid festival so had the harbour lit up at night and a fireworks display right in front of us over the harbour. 10 minute walk to the Kirribilli ferry which is one stop from Circular Quay and 5 minutes to the cafes and shops at Kirribilli. Easy communication and access to the apartment and everything very clean. (If you are a coffee drinker bring your own device.) Highly recommended for a quintessential Sydney experience.

Smack Bang on Coogee Beach - 1 bedroom
Danny's house exceeded our expectations in every way! From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. The space was spotless, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we could possibly need for a relaxing stay. The location is unbeatable—right on Coogee Beach, where we enjoyed morning strolls and breathtaking sunrises. With cafes, shops, and local attractions all within easy reach, it was the perfect spot for exploring and unwinding. Danny was an exceptional host, going out of his way to ensure our stay was comfortable and seamless. He was incredibly accommodating, always quick to respond and genuinely committed to making our experience unforgettable. If you’re looking for the ultimate beachside getaway, this is the place! We can’t recommend it highly enough and will definitely be back.

The Lake House on Amaroo - Waterfront/Free Wifi
A beautiful place with a beautiful view and surroundings, right on the edge of the lake. Josie was an excellent host throughout our stay with great communication, tips. We’ll be back.

"Seacliff" - Cliff Top Beach House
This house is absolutely stunning, you will not want to leave. The view is spectacular, the inside was cosy and spacious, it looked like it was straight out of a magazine and perfect for a weekend to hang with friends. We will be back because we loved it so much! Thanks for being great hosts! We were lucky enough to get an early check-in and late check-out, which we appreciated greatly!

Just a Touch of Paradise !
Great location and perfect set up for our family Easter break. Lots of utensils and extras to make cooking easy. Can't fault our stay. Will stay again.

Little Sea Sea, Waterfront Beachside Apartment
This was such a lovely beach home, the kind you dream of! It was wonderful having views of the water from every corner of the home. Everything in the home was beautiful and thoughtfully furnished. We tried kayaking and fishing and enjoyed it very much. The boys enjoyed playing on the lawn outside and the husband prepared a simple bbq on the patio. The kitchen was also very well equipped. We enjoyed our stay here very much and will definitely be recommending friends over!

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.

A Picturesque Lakehouse | Fun & Zoned for Privacy
We had an amazing time at this property! From the moment we booked, Sandy was outstanding—super communicative, incredibly flexible, and genuinely accommodating. She went above and beyond to make our stay special, even hanging up a birthday sign for my father-in-law, which was such a thoughtful touch! The house itself was perfect for our family. The kids were thrilled with the games room—it kept them entertained for hours. We also loved having separate living areas for some quiet time, as well as a spacious communal area where we could all come together and relax. It’s clear Sandy pays attention to the little details that make a big difference. We felt truly welcomed and cared for throughout our stay. Highly recommend this place for families or groups looking for a comfortable, well-equipped, and heartwarming getaway!

Cosy cottage in the trees
Loved our stay here, beautiful tranquil surrounds and a wonderfully appointed cabin. Thanks Donna & Jason 😊

Ocean Vista apartment with direct beach access; 11
Great place! Amazing views. Perfect set up for a family of 4. Would definitely come back!

Ocean view 1 bedroom apartment
We really loved the location of Sammi's place, super close to shops, beach front and restaurants/cafes. Plenty to do, but also a great spot to relax and watch the waves roll in. Everything was accounted for and we felt right at home as soon as we stepped through the doors. Definitely recommend this gem and will return!

"The View" Waterfront Apartment Shoal Bay
Have had a lovely week at Mark and Leah's apartment in shoal bay. Loved the views and the place was great, everything you needed for a comfortable stay was provided. Shoal Bay itself has a really laid back vibe, with great places to eat right at your doorstep. On our drive home we were already planning on coming back, which speaks volumes on how much we enjoyed our stay.

Relax in a stylish retreat by the beach and ocean
hosts were really lovely and even left home made cookies for arrival! Lovely clean apparentment close to the beach and walks. I didn't realise there was no oven so that was the only downside for us but it was great value for the money

Modern Kingston Foreshore - 1 queen/Bed Apt+parkin
The accommodation is Clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. Christine, the host, is a superstar! She was responsive and accommodating. Highly recommended!
