Edward and Lourdes are amazing hosts, they made me feel like I'm staying "at home", just like I was visiting at my parent's house. I consider myself very lucky to have discovered them and got to know them. Their place is overlooking the Manly wharf, and is perfect base for long walks around the neighborhood, or enjoying the close by beaches. I believe you can hardly find better hosts. Edward was even so nice to pick me up upon my ferry arrival and gave me a lift when I was leaving. Lourdes made sure there's always plenty of delicious food available. Would love to come back next time I'm in Sydney.

A++ - exceeded all expectations during 6 nights Location - Location - Location Hosts- Lourdes & Ed were fantastic hosts. They made us feel right at home when we arrived by an airport pick up (they were in town already)and great conversation about Sydney and Australia. You can tell they started Airbnb because they love to entertain and meet people. We met their friends/family who stopped by and enjoyed an amazing dinner cooked by Lourdes. She also had breakfast ready for us each morning and always gave us tips on how to make the most of our day via transportation and top sites to see. They had busy schedules so were not always around but went out of their way to ensure we were happy when present. They let us use their bicycles one day and dropped us off in town when we left. What amazing people, a true experience getting to know both of them. Penthouse Room- Place is better than in the photos, very large place with jaw dropping views. It has 270 degree views of the entire marina from the 6th floor and two large wrap around balconies. We felt at home using the entire house (penthouse is actually two units redesigned as one) and LOVED the balconies for morning coffee and evening wine. Penthouse is all recently redesigned with a Restroom that has a huge window overlooking the bay. The room has a window overlooking a beach and part of the bay, also has a big closet but the room is not huge. MANLY-We wanted to stay in CBD in sydney. So happy we stayed here as its 5 min beach walk to the Sydney Ferry which was an fun and inexpensive way to be dropped off in Circular Quay. Ferry runs till midnight and travel time is about 20 min each way with killer views. Manly is exciting with a great nightlife, beach areas and the penthouse is close walking distance to it all. In my opinion, Manly was more upscale and fun than Bondi beach but they are very similar. Manly is much larger I think and has more areas to explore. I wasn't very familiar with Many originally but would highly recommend this area for beach, hiking, restaurants and nightlife.

This is definitely the best airbnb I've stayed in! I cannot recommend it more. The hosts were great and lovely to talk to. They responded very quickly and welcomed me last minute. The breakfast was delicious and I throughly enjoyed chatting with them. they were very helpful! the flat is in a perfect location, it is very modern and clean inside. it has the best views you can ever hope for! I will come back here for sure! thank you guys!!

What a wonderful experience. The apartment was very modern, clean and flawless. While Edward and Lourdes were the most fantastic hosts going out of their way to make me feel very welcome. Thank you for making me feel so at home.

INCREDIBLE apartment + beautiful people = a great experience. We've been to many AirBnB places around Sydney. Staying with Edward & Lourdes was a real treat and we'll always check their place next time we are looking for a Manly getaway. You should too (although just not at the same time as us!!) Thanks Edward and thanks Lourdes. You were very friendly and very welcoming. Hope to see you both again.

Thanks Edward and Lourdes for having me. Very generous and sociable hosts, convenient location and gorgeous view. One of the best in Manly with a home feel and an absolute highlight of my weekend getaway. Will definitely stay again next time I'm in Manly.

Fantastic apartment, beautiful views and amazing hosts! We stayed with Edward & Lourdes for one night while we attended a friends engagement party in Manly. Edward and Lourdes made us feel really welcome and even made us a lovely breakfast! Although we were not there for long, we had some good conversations and our hosts shared some of their travel experiences and tips with us - of the local, national and international kind! The apartment was very clean and modern and our bedroom and own bathroom were perfect. After returning to Melbourne, Edward messaged to ask if we had left a belt (we had!) and he has very kindly put it in the post for us. We would recommend staying with Edward and Lourdes to anyone travelling to Sydney - they are a real credit to AirBnB!

Edward and Lourdes both are fantastic hosts. Really made us feel welcomed in their home. We even joined for a birthday party with their daughter! The apartment itself is in an incredible location overlooking the water - good snorkeling is right across the street. Can't recommend the location and the hosts enough!

Best Airbnb experience ever! Kym is super attentive, and the bonus is she's super fun and sweet! Space is clean, in excellent condition, better than the pics. Located in a quiet neighborhood yet an easy walk to Manly. We did the walk 2-3 times a day. Definitely will stay again!

Great welcome from the host Kym.Location was perfect and very easy to find and very (URL HIDDEN) was everything we wanted and we loved being in Manly.Kym could not have done more to make us feel welcome.

Booked on behalf of my in-laws who loved it. Small but perfectly formed with lovely patio area. Great location for Fairlight and Manly. Kym was fantastic to deal with.

We stayed at Kym's Airbnb for five nights in late August. The unit is very neat and comfortable, represents excellent value and is in a fantastic location only a five minute walk from the Manly ferry. Communication leading up to and during our stay was excellent and Kym stayed in contact throughout to ensure everything was going well. She also provided lots of very useful information on the Manly area which was very helpful. It is obvious that she loves Manly and the approach to our visit and the quality of the unit made us feel the same.

Kym met us on arrival and could not have been more helpfull.We stayed for a week and enjoyed the walk to and from the ferry each day ,about 10 mins. The unit was spotless and the bed was really comfy.A great little place! thanks Colm And Wendy

I recently had the opportunity to stay at Kym and Rob's beautiful 1 bedroom apartment in Manly - to summarise, I can't recommend the place and Kym and Rob highly enough. Kym's communication prior to my visit was wonderful - highly organised and very helpful. On arrival in Sydney, Kym was in touch to coordinate arrival timing and was able to let me into the place several hours before originally scheduled. Kym met me at the apartment to give me a bit of a rundown of the place and of things to see and do. The apartment itself has been beautifully renovated and has essentially everything you could wish for - from the well equipped kitchen, to the very tasteful furnishings to the brand new appliances - it's a very comfortable place to stay. Finally, and perhaps worth saving till last - the location of the apartment is literally walking 5 minutes walking distance to one of my favourite beaches (ocean not waves) Fairlight beach, which has both snorkelling, an ocean pool and spots for the whole family to enjoy. You're also only 5-10 minutes walk to Manly and Manly Wharf if you're heading to the city. Awesome and recommended.

We had a wonderful stay at Kym's apartment. The flat is in immaculate condition, equipped with everything you could need, and in the perfect location to explore Manly. Kym is extremely welcoming and helpful - always on hand to give advice etc when needed. 100% recommend to anyone looking to book.

Kym is an excellent host, proactive and responsive. Her unit reflects in every way, the care and attention she has for her guests . Our stay was extremely successful.

Michelle met us at the property to show us around and as promised, there was some building construction going on. Unfortunate that many of the windows couldn't be opened and we had to move our car on Monday morning but we got a heavily discounted rate due to the building construction. Once the construction is over, this will be the perfect Air B and B! Amazing setting, beautiful design, comfy beds, good wifi - we were very comfy here.

Absolutely beautiful unit, a great place to stay. Great host, quick friendly communication. Will definitely be back.

Excellent location, great host, would highly recommend

Lovely apartment great location

We absolutely loved our week at Michelle's place. A fantastic property in a superb location. When you are traveling with two kids under 3, packing is always a challenge. Michelle kindly provided a selection of toys, highchair, change mat, porta cot etc which was incredibly helpful. Thanks for a wonderful week :)

Everything is easy and you immediately get the holiday feeling, no steps and really well kit out, the facilities, combined with location make this a 5 star stay

Fantastic spot to experience beachfront living. Michelle was a perfect host. Apartment was great for our family over Christmas. Definitely recommend to others

Michelle's place is terrific. The location is great- right on the beach and close the ferry terminal for short trips into Sydney. The sounds of the surf lull you to sleep at night. Our family had an amazing week in Manly Beach.

Large room easily fits 4 people comfortably. Right by the Manly Ferry and local beaches. Convenient and safe location.

A perfect, quiet, location - within walking distance of stunning beaches (Fairlight for swimming, Manly for surfing and Shelley for snorkelling). Manly's shops, cafes and restaurants are only 10 minutes away, as is the Wharf from which the ferry will take you to Sydney's city-centre. We really enjoyed being able to relax on the patio at the appartment too. Perfect! Thank you.

Great place, convenient location, excellent communication, flexible and hospital hosts. Thanks Linda and Sean

Linda's place is in a brilliant location. Walking distance to the Corso, beach and wharf. Expect great value for money.

Great location... So close to Manly Ferry. (Loved the walk). Hosts were very welcoming and the place was perfect for us.

Linda and Sean were very gracious hosts. The communication was of a very high standard. The accommodation was huge and incredibly clean. The quiet location combined with the proximity to all local areas was amazing. Beds and linen were great. Best sofa bed yet. Thanks, Guys. We will return as soon as possible.

Linda's place is beautiful! Just out of the busiest Hussle and bussle but a 5 minute walk to the corso

Linda and Sean's place was great. It was clean and had all that we needed. It was nice to have the outdoor patio space as well. We enjoyed our stay and hope to return again soon!

We had a great time in Manly and Jennis appartment. The appartment is lovely. It's bigger than it looks like in the pictures and had more than enough space for me, my husband and our 3 kids. The street is calm and quiet, but still not far from the beach and Manly center. Jennis relative Deborah was really friendly when she met us. I would love to stay there again.

One of the best ever overall Airbnb properties I've experienced. Jenni is clear and prompt in communication. Check in to check out is seamless and smooth. Most importantly, the apartment is spotless, tastefully furnished, and generously equipped throughout. The kitchen has everything one needs for all meals. The location is one block from the quiet end of the beach and walking distance to a great market and restaurant. Photos understate the views from the patio and the light throughout the apartment. Easy ferry ride to central Sydney.

A spacious corner of paradise ! More than what you see on the pictures, a real feeling of pleasure : being in Manly but in a quite place. The decoration of Jenni our host is delicate and comfortable as well as convenient. The apartment has just been renewed. it's fresh, no humidity. We have been leaving in it for one month with our 2 kids : more than enough space for all of us, feeling at home with great cooking appliances in a spacious kitchen. Perfect beddings for a great sleep ! a wide laundry. Sun lights in the apartment all day long. 2 balconies ! Parrots and palm trees around ! 200 meters far away from the beach ! We went to manly wharf in 20 minutes by foot, jumped on a ferry and went to the Opera, and the City. Can't be better !

This property was perfect, and as described on the site. Clean, comfortable and well presented with many added touches which made our stay even more enjoyable. It was like home away from home, yet with the beach at your front door. Just beautiful.

Superb location, very peaceful and quiet and wonderful to be so close to the beach, farmers market and restaurants. Loved all The walking around Manly and of course the ferry trips. Unit excellent for us so bright and cheerful, lots of fresh air, fabulous beds and bathrooms. We thoroughly loved staying here and had such fun being able to be so comfortable in our 'home at the beach'. Thanks for a great stay.

It's hard to fault Jeni and her lovely apartment. She was communicative throughout the booking process and while we were staying there and any questions we had or requests we made were responded to immediately. The apartment is light, airy, spacious, and has everything a family needs. Its 2 minutes walk from the quieter end of Manly beach and a 10 minute walk from Freshwater, the next beach along (great restaurant and cafe there!). If you're looking for a relaxing Sydney break, with easy access to the beach, the centre of Manly or central Sydney, I'd highly recommend this.

We loved it. Light and breezy, very comfortable and in a great location, very close to everything. We would stay again and in fact, we rebooked whilst there!

Jenni's communication was fantastic and her apartment in Manly was perfect. Very spacious with lovely furniture and an authentic northern beaches feel to the decor. Ocean breezes keep the apartment nice and cool and our 3 year old son loved the amount of space he had to play inside and on the balcony. Ocean views from the balcony and you're literally 2 mins walk away from the family friendly and quieter north end of manly beach (queenscliff) We very much enjoyed our stay here and would definitely use Jenni's apartment again for ourselves or friends and family.

My parents enjoyed a fantastic stay in Venta's apartment. Excellent communication from Venta and everything was perfect - the view is great and the apartment very well equipped, spotlessly clean and modern. Highly recommended.

The apartment was everything we hoped for and more. Beautifully decorated with fabulous sea views and only five minutes walk from the wharf, it had everything we could possibly need for a vacation in Manly. We were so happy to have found the apartment and would definitely book again should we return to Australia. Venta was extremely helpful prior to our visit, providing directions and suggestions for travel from the airport. As Venta was out of town over the period of our visit, her daughter was on hand to answer any questions and made sure we had her contact details in case of any problems during our stay. The kitchen was also stocked with essentials and a bottle of wine so we felt immediately at home! Thank you!

The apartment was immaculate. There was a bottle of lovely wine and chocolates plus beautiful shampoos and soaps. It had everything you could possibly need. The views and the decor were much better than we expected. The host was very helpful and engaging. The location was spectacular and so close to everything in Manly. It was very quiet and peaceful. It was very helpful having a private off street parking place. Would highly recommend this apartment!

My stay at Venta's place was just great !!! The location is good, close to the wharf, corso, and beaches. You have an incredible view from every room, and sipping your coffee or glas of eine on the balcony is a must do. In general is the apartment super modern and nice, as well as spacious and clean. Communication was fast and check in super easy. Venta is a lovely host, since she provides some complementary things upon arrival. Great stay, would always come back, and recommend it to anybody who can spend a little more on their stay (totally worth it by the way !! ;)

The host canceled this reservation 47 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

What a wonderful experience! I arranged for my mother visiting from interstate to stay at Venta's apartment and absolutely everything was thought of to make the stay memorable and so enjoyable, such a beautiful location, overlooking idyllic Manly harbour, a fabulous renovated apartment, small but with excellent use of space, a welcome package with wine & chocolates, breakfast supplies and a range of other gourmet goodies. Venta's hospitality and willingness to accommodate any request was greatly appreciated! Perfect for single or couple.

This gorgeous Manly apartment is absolutely amazing and the hosts are so kind and generous. We booked this last minute and the hosts attended to all of our needs. There was fresh orange juice, milk and muesli upon arrival, as well as a bottle of wine and beautiful flowers. The apartment is brand new and decorated beautifully. The furnishings are just perfect and all look very stylish whilst being ever so comfortable. As well as that, the water views are absolutely breathtaking, so much so we didn't want to leave the apartment! It is just perfect. The apartment is footsteps away from the ferry which makes city trips a breeze. You are also moments away from all of Manly's best bars and restaurants, supermarkets, great boutiques (especially for the ladies), and of course the famous Manly beach. We loved the ocean breeze in the morning during our coffee sessions watching the harbour, we then took ourselves to the beach for a nice day in the sun, and then back to the apartment for sunset. We couldn't have asked for anything more perfect. Thank you so much for such a wonderful stay, we will definitely be back! Highly recommend to all.

Venta was precise and thoughtful in the preparations she made. She forgot nothing. In addition, there was a feeling of generosity about what was provided. She could have given much less, but it was all plentiful and top of the range. The flat is designed intelligently so that everything works smoothly in the space. The view was wonderful. The location was superb and local restaurants and the ferry were very close. We were at home here in minutes and very comfortable. The organisation and use of the space was clever. I would highly recommend this to travellers who want a stress free stay in Manly.

Anuncio exactamente igual a la realidad. Muy acogedor, cómodo, espacioso y relajante. Hermosa vista.

A great stay. A fab location, just be prepared for a 15 minute uphill walk. Apart from that, the location is ideal. Perfect, quiet location, with reasonable walking distance to the harbour and Manly beach.

Fantastic bright and airy apartment with breathtaking views across to Sydney Heads and Manly. Great location - a 10 minute walk downhill to Manly ferry, or the free Hop Skip Jump shuttle bus. Easy onstreet parking in the quiet cul-de-suc. Damian was a great host - prompt and friendly in communications. Thanks for a great stay!

私が経験した中、一番と言えるほど素晴らしい所でした。ホストも素晴らしく何を聞いても直に返事して下さって大変助かりました。何も困る事なく楽しかったです。 他の人が推奨しているように場所も、設備も良かったので文句無しです。

It took 2 minutes for damain to reply, make our booking and make payment. it was that fast! the apartment is really as seen in the photos. clean, airy and the view! it is about 15 - 20 minutes seaside walk to manly wharf, where you can take the frequent ferry service to the main tourist spots in town, which runs till late. also, you can also take the bus from the bus stop nearby. it is easy to track bus arrival times using the "opal travel" app too. if youre driving, the roads get congested quite frequently as there is only one main road leading to manly/mosman area from town. so it took us more than an hour to get to the airport. but overall damain was easy to deal with and his apartment is well worth the stay! waking up to that view everyday is just refreshing!

We had a wonderful stay in Damien's apartment. It was clean, comfortable, with amazing views. Will stay here again during our next visit.

Damian's place is amazing, some of the best views in the northern beaches! Place was in top condition and in a great location. Would definitely recommend it. Thanks Damian.

Damian's apartment was seriously one of the best I ever stayed in. The view is amazing and the location is great. Would recommend everyone to stay there.

I had a great stay!

It is the perfect Location for a beach Holiday. You literally walk 15 steps and are in the ocean. You are also really close to all the needs in Manly. It is perfect to feel like a local. Tara and Ryan are really lovely people and I am greatful that I have met them. I would definetly stay at their home again!

Wow! Room is amazing. Huge space with a view of the beach. Tara and Ryan were super friendly and helpful. Highly recommend

Sensational space with superb views of the ocean where I swam every morning. The hosts are delightful, approachable and low key. Their space is the other side of the apartment - giving the feeling of being inside two apartments in one. The entire space is immaculate, everything seems new and fresh and the space is indeed in the premier part of Manly. I loved it.

I couldn't believe my luck. This place has got to be the best address in both Manly and Sydney in general. Literally a stone's throw from the beach - even if you're crappy at throwing stones ;) . And it's only 35 minutes door to door by foot and ferry to Circular Quay. Doesn't get better than that! The bedroom itself is bigger than my studio apartment in Melbourne. I didn't even have to leave my bed to check the surf. So good! The bed has to be the most comfortable I have ever slept in - and I've stayed in 5 star hotels across the globe. Their kitchen is phenomenal - I was appointed an entire cupboard for my groceries - and plenty of space in the fridge too. Ryan showed me how to make my own juice with their juicer the first day - after that I was hooked and made one every day. And I was also lucky enough to get up at the same time as Tara - so she made me one of the most delicious coffees I have ever had. Their kitchen has everything and more. And everything is high quality - they take their culinary experiences quite seriously I think. No complaints here. The design of the place is such that you can keep to yourself with complete privacy (the bedroom is located on the complete opposite side of the apartment to Ryan and Tara's room) and has its own separate lounge with views of the beach - or you can come out to the kitchen and connect with the hosts. Ryan and Tara were awesome hosts. I guess I was lucky to stay while they were on holidays so they had more time to chat and connect. Ryan has lived in Manly most of his life, and his love for the place is obvious. Even though the swell wasn't very good, we went for a surf anyway - what a place Manly beach is at dawn. Tara has lived all over the world creating edible gardens wherever she goes. She was happy to let me pick herbs and leaves from her lush garden beds for my meals. Her urban garden greens among the concrete jungle was quite inspiring. The place is immaculate. The room is huge with the comfiest bed ever. The location has got to be the best Manly has on offer. And the hosts are two of the coolest young cats I've met on my travels. Highly recommended.

Location, location location. The beach is a stones throw away and visible from the windows. The price is very reasonable for such a location

Very cosy and close to the beach

If I could add a 6th start I would not hesitate a minute. The flat I one of the best location in Manly, a pure paradise with an amazing view on the beach. Ryan & Tara are as nice as the place. Enjoy your stay there
