Leisurely Stroll to the Beach & Cafes from a North Facing Apartment
We had a fantastic stay in Trudie and Andy’s apartment. It was beautifully decorated and very well equipped. Trudie was very responsive and helpful. We would definitely stay again.

Florabella Studio
Sarah is very friendly and a great communicator. The place has everything we needed, was very cute and in perfect shape. Gorgeous spot right against the forest, quiet location at the end of the street, with a nice walk right from the house. Highly recommend and would gladly visit again. 😊🙏🧡

Sydney waterfront boatshed
A scenic, somewhat unique place to stay right on the Georges River. We really enjoyed our stay. Great value for money.

Spacious Self-Contained Granny Flat
Great place to stay in!

Fernwood Cottage Coach House
Had a great time… can recommend this place

Suburban Bush Retreat Guest House
We had a lovely time at Rod and Lynsey’s place. All of the needs for young families was very well thought out from night lights to access to a huge trampoline and simple things like washing machine detergent and milk for breakfast after a late night arrival. They also offered tips to travel more easily into Sydney city and there bar area was a fun and relaxing retreat for parents. Thanks very much, we look forward to visiting at the same time next year!

Bush View Escape
Thanks Jodie for your proactive communications. It was a lovely stay in a very beautiful part of the world. A perfect bush escape. Jus & Matt.

1830's converted barn with sauna
Mirva was very responsive to our questions prior to arrival and during our stay. We only stayed a couple days, but the spot was good for us to get to enjoy both Sydney Harbor and the Blue Mountains (with a little driving). We loved the fun artsy decor; the place felt very welcoming. It was exactly what we were hoping and what we wanted!

Coull Cottage 2-bedroom guesthouse in Picton CBD
100% recommend staying here!! Very warm and cosy place, also many shops close by! Deanne was very responsive and looked after us.

That Beach Shack - Tranquil Pool & Beach Getaway
Super cute spot in a gorgeous town! Easy check in process and the host provides lots of recommendations. Perfect get away out of the city!

Darwin's Studio
This was one of the best Airbnb experiences I’ve ever had! The studio home in the beautiful Blue Mountains was comfortable, clean and cosy. Bianca is a super host for a reason! When we arrived, the fire was on and there was a fresh pot of hot chai tea waiting for us along with a personal, handwritten note. There was a booklet with useful information about the studio and communication with Bianca was prompt, super friendly and kind. In addition to the tea, Bianca also left homemade tiramisu in the fridge, fresh eggs in a bowl on the table and local bread which we enjoyed for breakfast the next day. Bianca goes above and beyond as a host and you can tell she loves to make sure guests feel comfortable and relaxed. We also enjoyed a homemade face mask and lovely bathroom amenities. Our stay was really comfortable and cosy - the perfect winter getaway! I’d love to stay here again, it was so delightful. Thank you Bianca for being such a kind, thoughtful and considerate host!! :)

Vibrant Garden Studio w/Parking, private access
Enjoyed our stay at Davin’s, nice and comfortable, plenty of room, inside and outside. Will certainly stay here again.

Cutest street in the cutest neighbourhood.
Such a cool space! Great location, easy walk to bars/shops/etc. Would stay here again, next time I’m in Newtown!

The Boathouse
Beautiful location and very comfortable air bnb. The perfect place to escape and be right next to the water. A good fitness workout up and down the stairs but worth it! Great getaway!

Modern 1Bdr Cottage - Walk to Beach
We stayed here for 5 days and would highly recommend. It is located just a stones throw from the beach, and has great public transport routes to get to the CBD. Jenny was a very responsive and informative host and the whole check in/out process was easy. The place was clean and just like the photos!

The Ettalong Tree Tops | Winter discounts
Great location. Beautiful space, amazing comfortable beds, great amenities. The shower is fabulous as well as the high quality soaps, shampoo and conditioner. Would stay there again

Stylish Studio in Heart of Annandale Village
Our second stay and a great place to stay in Sydney's adjacent inner city. All the quality facilities we needed for a week+ long stay, including essential provisions (and a complementary bottle of wine 😀) Close to a great range of shops & facilities within easy walking distance in Annandale. Great transport links to the city and adjacent suburbs nearby. With family nearby, we will be back!

Guest house with private entry
Absolutely fantastic hospitality! Han and Xin were super responsive and flexible with my check in. Instructions were clear and they always communicated with me. Most of all, the place is cozy, clean and luxurious. The beautiful heritage building with modern amenities is superb. The Burwood train station is a short 15 min walk pass multiple shops and restaurants. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.

Secluded Cottage with Mountain and Valley Views
A peaceful hut with a beautiful view. We've been away to the Blue Mountains many times but had not previously considered Hazelbrook as a holiday option (... I guess not ''high enough'' in the mountains) but this trip changed out minds. The hut is tucked away and comfortably isolated yet only a 5 minute drive to the local shops that had everything we needed. Karen was a responsive and friendly host.

Heritage sandstone cottage with Pittwater views
Great place to stay, amazing views and the host was extremely helpful. definitely would come back

Tall Timbers Cottage
My family and I loved staying at Libby's place. The property is gorgeous and house is lovely. Everything we needed, Libby even provided us with a nice breakfast which was a lovely surprise :)

Bonton Bliss Modern Sleeps 4 in the Blue Mountains
Great value. As described. Wonderful hosts.

Sunny Bondi hideaway- 700m to Bondi Beach
Hannah's place was perfect for our weekend getaway to celebrate a significant birthday. It was easy to get to by public transport, and Hannah's instructions for accessing and use of facilities were clear. She also kindly allowed us to checkin a bit early and checkout late, which fit conveniently into our itinerary. We were able to walk to the beach and shops easily, yet have a quiet and comfortable room for the night. Highly recommended for couples and retirees.

'Serenita' - Garden unit on North Curl Curl Beach
Perfect stay for the 10 days I was in Sydney. Had everything I needed & location is fabulous. Kitchen well equipped to make meals. Easy walking to cafes & beaches all around. Very peaceful & a huge plus having plenty of parking spaces outside the Airbnb. Marilyn is a very attentive host responding very quickly. Had a problem one of the days with the tv & it was fixed that same day. Thank you I really enjoyed my stay.
