Beachfront holiday rental in Empire Bay

The photos don’t do this house justice - it is even more beautiful than they suggest, if you can believe it. The house is tucked into a quiet valley with a gorgeous view, only 5 minutes drive from a number of beaches. It’s comfortably designed with lovely quirks and has everything you need. Can’t recommend enough!

Our stay at the Redhead Beach House was fantastic. The house itself was well designed, spacious, clean and beautifully decorated. We were welcomed with a platter and wine waiting for us and everything was well stocked and easy to find. Great selection of board games, table tennis and arcade game meant there was plenty to do when we were at the house. The area was beautiful and quiet. A great beach over the road - both our 11 year old daughter and our dog loved it! Overall, I would highly recommend. Thank you Natalie and Collin for your hospitality.

Amazing place to stay as always! We went for a restful weekend and that is what we got. The house is comfortable and cosy during the cold winter. Murphy is an amazing dog and was so good with our little one. Our dog especially enjoyed the backyard and to play with Murphy. Highly recommend Jennene’s place for a restful weekend getaway!

We had a wonderful weekend stay at this beautiful cabin! The location was perfect — right next to the lake, and just a short walk from the Indian Coffee House restaurant, which was a great bonus. The cabin itself was very well-organized, spotlessly clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The peaceful surroundings and proximity to nature made it the ideal getaway. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a clean, cozy, and conveniently located retreat.

The house was brilliant! Superb location, perfect for any combination of people. Sue's communication was fantastic, friendly and helpful. Thankyou Sue.

Perfect for walking to everything in the local area, the beach, restaurants, clubs and bars along the strip where basically at your front door yet you are still private enough for it to be very restful when needed. Lovely little find and an extra bonus for our cute daily visits from the resident dog. Thanks for hosting.

This is the second time we’ve visited Paul’s place and hopefully they’ll be another. It’s a quintessential Australian coast house, full of character and warmth. The beach is across the road and you fall asleep with the sound of the ocean. Heaven! Great back yard, everything you need and Paul is a 10 out of 10 host!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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!

Great flat in a highly desirable location, good amenities in the building, very helpful and responsive host.

We absolutely loved staying here! It is a such a beautiful home and in a great location. So close to Avoca town centre as well as great local walks to cafes, shops and the beach. The house was beautifully kept and had everything we needed. Being so close to the lake was such an added bonus! Felicity even provided a fantastic travel cot and highchair for our little ones. It's a great place to stay both with or without kids. As a family of 5 with 3 babies we were very comfortable and really enjoyed our stay. We will certainly be back. Highly highly recommend!

Highly recommend this place for anyone staying in Manly, really central location close to beach, shops, restaurants and the ferry terminal

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!

We just LOVED this place. cosy, beautifully presented- with everything you could possibly need to make your stay comfortable. The only bad thing about this home was that we couldn't stay longer. We would love to come stay again in the future, if Gwendoline would have us. Thanks so much- the De Caux family 🙏 ❤️✨️

Beautiful please to stay in a fantastic and buzzing location and very responsive service

Adrian’s place was so homely and comfortable. The beds were so soft and we didn’t want to leave that lounge! We had just the right amount of space for 4 adults and 2 kids. Adrian was very generous and thoughtful. Even leaving ice blocks in the freezer for the kids! The pool and games room was a hit with the kids. Great for the couple of rainy days we got during our stay. This was probably the most comfortable air b n b experience we’ve had. Everything ran smoothly thanks to a great host.

We really enjoyed Christian’s place. Unbeatable location, right in the heart of Manly. We also rented a car and were pleased the rental came with a car space. We asked for a slightly later checkout and this was accommodated. Also on the day we arrived the apartment was ready for check in early. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

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!

Fabulous place! Carolyn is a wonderful host with a great eye for detail. Highly recommend staying at their gorgeous place

This is a very good value place in the central coast, close to the beach and good food spots around town, on top of this, the hosts were very accommodating, prompt on messages and very much cared about our experience at their place. The space is very clean and has all you would need for a little getaway. Thank you!

My partner and I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home. The layout was thoughtfully designed and we especially loved the rustic charm of the bed and bathroom which created such a warm, cozy atmosphere. The location was perfect, the beach accessible from the back gate of the property and although the weather was chilly, we still enjoyed a lovely picnic down there. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay, making the check-in process smooth and welcoming. Highly recommend this place for a peaceful getaway!

The Grapevine is a beautifully creative and eclectic cottage where every decorative detail is a journey to a different place and point in time, very cool! Ian has made the airbnb an incredibly comfortable and relaxing place to both unwind and feel inspired. I was also provided with wonderful recommendations of things to do in the area and had the pleasure of chatting to Ian during my stay. Communication was easy, great instructions to find the place, an all round fabulous experience. Highly recommend the Grapevine and can't wait to return for another visit.

*Convenient and secure location near Ettalong beach. * Easy check in from a host that communicated with me throughout. * Clean house throughout with modern appliances/bathrooms and plenty of space. Will return

Quick stay but enjoyed the house and the view in the morning was delightful.

Very comfortable place in immaculate condition. well appointed with everything we needed. Walking distance to the Centre of Ettalong. Will stay again.
