Treehouse near the Beach
We stayed for a week and loved it. The house is so peaceful and perfect for chilling out. Avoca Beach and Copacabana Beach are close by and have everything you need. The house was spotless and Henk gave thorough instructions and hints when checking in. I loved that there weren’t signs and instructions all through the house like some other airbnbs we have stayed at - it made it feel more like home.

Spectacular & Uninterrupted Ocean View! Seashack!
Amazing place! My family and I we feel like home! I’ll return for sure!

Fox & Hound Farm Stay: Self Contained Accomodation
3 night stay with 2 toddlers. It was a great quite location collocated on small rural property. Would recommend for a nice quiet weekend away. BYO food etc if on a budget, otherwise plan for 15-30-60min drives to the surrounding area to try various cafes. The accommodation is an old barn converted into modern two story self contained apartment. Small funtional kitchen with the essentials provided to assist prepare/cook meals and full size fridge. The two bedrooms rooms were spacious an provided space for a portable cot. Our toddlers were pleasantly surprised by the birds and dog who visited on occasion. David was a great host and was proactive to provide clear directions on check-in, arrival and local tips on travel plans. He remained responsive during our stay for follow up questions.

Large House near Lake with Optional Heated Pool*
Thank you for a wonderful stay for our girls weekend away. The house was great to accomodate 12 adults and plenty of room to relax, hang out and cook and eat meals. House was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. We all had a great time!

Newly Renovated Studio
Very nice private apt in a really good location. Does get a little noisy on the morning but if you close the balcony doors you should be good. We had all amenities and everything was nice and clean. For us the mattress was very soft but I guess that is a personal preference. Would stay again

Waterfront - Designer Curated @ The Rocks Sydney
Located in the historic (and possibly most beautiful) part of Sydney’s CBD, Suzanna’s home is simply, Wonderful. Light, airy, spotless and perfectly appointed. Within an easy walk to fantastic restaurants and pubs in Millers Point and The Rocks. … and Incredible Views over Barangaroo, Nawi Cove to White Bay (sunset was spectacular). Topping it off is Suzanna is an Incredible Host - so responsive and welcoming. Suzanna’s home is my new ‘go-to’ for trips to Sydney. Thank you, Suzanna!

Luxurious Home in Heart of Western Sydney
Great value and excellent communication! We had one issue with the kitchen and the host made every effort to resolve and even find us a replacement cook top for our stay! Without a doubt a stellar place for a big group!
Your guide to Dangar Island
All About Dangar Island
Dangar Island is a forested retreat on the Hawkesbury River near Brooklyn, just north of Sydney. Nestled between Brisbane Waters and Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park, it’s a natural hideaway along the river. Being on the island is a unique experience, as there are no private cars allowed here, and wheelbarrows are the primary method for hauling goods from the ferry. The town was initially an artists’ colony, and today attracts travelers for its secluded beach and stunning views across Broken Bay.
At just 30 hectares in area, Dangar Island can be walked in about two hours along a circular bushland path. The lower ground takes you past the Bowling Club and the only shop and cafe on the island. The higher ground offers picturesque views of the Hawkesbury River and the community hall, which supports numerous groups and workshops. The island has a healthy mix of natural and cultural history, from lush vegetation and migratory birds to Indigenous engravings and rock shelters.
The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Dangar Island
Dangar Island’s year-round temperatures are relatively steady and pleasant. Spring offers plenty to do in the surrounding Sydney area, including the Sculpture by the Sea art installation on Bondi Beach every November. December to February is the warmest time of year — visit Dangar Island in January for an epic Australia Day celebration on Bradleys Beach. Autumn temperatures start to dip and nights become a little cooler with breezes off the bay, so pack an extra layer for sunset strolls. May offers a chance to spot ocean wildlife as it’s the start of the whale-watching season. Winter on Dangar Island and the surrounding area is relatively mild, with lower temperatures from June to August, making it an ideal time for walking the island and exploring nearby national parks.
Top things to do in Dangar Island
Kiparra Park
The island’s four-kilometre walking trail showcases its natural beauty and views of the Hawkesbury River. The trail passes Bradley Beach, the cafe, and the bowling club with a turnoff to higher grounds bringing you to Kiparra Park. The park is a favourite picnic spot with a playground and community hall. Allow two to three hours to complete the loop.
Bradleys Beach
Located in the southern portion of the island, Bradleys Beach can be enjoyed year round. The secluded beach is a popular spot for an afternoon picnic, swimming, and relaxing. One of the few accessible beaches in Hornsby Shire, Bradleys Beach hosts events throughout the year, including an annual New Year’s Eve celebration.
Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park
Australia’s second-oldest national park combines historical experiences — such as the Aboriginal Heritage walk — and scenic beauty, making it a perfect day trip from Dangar Island. The large park is ideal for cycling, fishing, and bushwalking. Numerous walking tracks and mountain biking trails take you along winding creeks through rainforests, eucalyptus, and mangroves to rocky cliffs with stunning views.
