Chic Manly Beachside Retreat for Surf and City
Christian was a great host! He was very responsive and helpful. He provided local recommendations. The apartment is very centrally located and walkable to all the hotspots around Manly. And parking is included, which is hard to find in the area! The place was as described and worked great for what I needed. Thank you, Christian!

Harbourside7 - modern 1br unit with fab views
Annette was a super host. We had a couple of issues during our stay with the apartment block infrastructure which was outside of Annette’s control , but Annette sorted it out for us very quickly and efficiently. The apartment is lovely, with great amenities and a view to die for. The pool was lovely and clean and a nice area to unwind. It was extremely quiet at night and the other residents respectful. We would definitely recommend the apartment to anyone, and would stay there again

Spectacular Suite, Bridge & Water views, The Rocks
We had a great stay. Ash place was better than pics, clean tidy. Close to public transport and restaurants and bars. Coffee shop 2min walk away. If you book Ash's place you will not be disappointed

Little Gem
What a gem! We caught the final nights of Vivid Sydney and the view from the apartment was next-level: Iconic, sparkling, absolutely unforgettable! The unit was spotless, super comfy, and had everything we needed. Great location too, easy walk to cafes, shops, and transport. Huge shoutout to the hosts who were friendly and always responsive, Would book again in a heartbeat.

Unrivaled Harbour view at fully equipped 2BR apt
Very good host, original place booked had plumbing issues 3 days prior arrival, Coco switched us with no issue, good communication, accommodating for early check in. Highly recommend it

Waterfront Wonder! Opera house!
Awesome experience! Communication was excellent. The host gave detailed instructions and responded very quickly. Prime location. The place was quiet with easy access to public transport, only a ferry to Circular Quay. The view was great, with the Opera House view at the balcony. We were so lucky to see fireworks on the last day of Vivid Sydney! Highly recommended!

Balmoral Beachfront Luxury (King bed or 2 singles)
Great hosts. Lovely apartment in a wonderful location, directly across from beach and easy access to public transport and conveniences. The apartment has everything you need for a short stay or even a bit longer.

Barefoot at Mosman Bay
This property needs to describe the access to potential customers. We arrive from the USA late Sunday night after a long haul flight from the USA so where jet lagged and tired. It was raining and the Uber dropped us on the main road with 9 pieces of luggage totaling 130kg (we are moving back from the States) and we had no idea we needed to get everything down the very steep driveway and then up 3 flights of stairs. It really pushed us to or physical limit and for some people they would have not been able to actually get their luggage up into the apartment. We searched all the Airbnb descriptions and could not find any reference to these logistics... Once inside the apartment it was beautiful and we relaxed for the rest of the week but dreaded getting our luggage out again!

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.

Rock house on the river
One of the best places I’ve stayed. Brilliant place for a relaxing weekend, bens Airbnb had everything you needed, very cosy and had the most breathtaking views! Flexible checkout. Highly recommend

MANLY BEACH HOUSE - 8 min walk to Manly Beach!
Loved my week at Amanda’s. The welcome “weekly shop” (fresh basics + juice) was a lovely touch after a long journey. Quiet street, yet a quick walk to Manly Beach, cafés, and the ferry—perfect spot. Home was spotless, comfy beds, sharp kitchen, bright living space. Amanda’s fast replies and local tips sealed the deal. Five stars.

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

SeaPod - Beach Front Holiday Home
SeaPod was the perfect location for a getaway visit to Sydney with my 2 daughters. We explored the local natural environment with trail runs, walks and particularly loved the morning swim in the ocean pool. Spectacular views from every room of the ocean, the surfers, the dolphins and the waves were highlights of our experience. We would love to come back in the near future.

rivescape, Berowra Waters
BOOK THE STAY! Words can’t describe how much we enjoyed our weekend here. The hosts are responsive and helpful, the short boat transfer from the marina is seamless ( thanks Collin), and the views from the house are unbeatable. The wifi is fast, the smart TV’a were great , the house is well stocked, and you have everything you need to relax. We had an absolutely magical time and though we live out of the country we will make every effort to come back!

Stunning 4BR Waterfront House w/pool in Sth Coogee
This was a magnificent place for a long weekend with a group of friends. The views are spectacular, and the place very private. The house was spotless and very clean. I wanted to bring in some flowers and balloons prior to arrival and the host was incredibly accommodating with regards to allowing those services in at the check in time. Would definitely stay again!

Absolute Tamarama Beachfront on Bondi Coastal Walk
The Bondi Beach, Tamarama, Bronte beach area is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever visited. After spending a week running all over Sydney, I’m so glad we stayed here instead of downtown or near the Opera House. We felt like we got a more authentic experience. Charlotte’s house has billionaire views in a cozy, easy to use place right on one of the best beach trails I’ve ever experienced. 5 of 5, I’ll dream of my next chance to stay here.

Modern apt in Central Sydney: Harbour Views & Pool
This Airbnb is a perfect location for seeing Sydney. You can connect to any part of the city from the bus stop adjacent to the rental. The rental itself was great - everything was clean and the rental was well equipped with everything needed for a week's 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
Amazing location we stayed last minute for one night in Bondi. Perfect for couple. You couldn’t get closer to the ocean and literally next to Bondi Icebergs. We will def be back.

Waterview Retreat: Free Parking & Near the Mall
The property was great and the cleanliness was impressive. I had a wonderful time and would definitely consider booking it again in the future.

Lux Home. Harbour Views & Parking. 3Bed2BathOption
Great place in an awesome location. Extremely easy instructions for getting in, clear and helpful instructions in the apartment. Views are amazing and the apartment is extremely well equipped. Perfect for our family stay over the long weekend.
