Beachfront vacation rentals in Doonside

You want to stay here. The Sandstone Cottage has an exceptional view and an ideal location. The dwelling is well maintained, very clean and perfectly serviced. Being able to use the provided water toys and kayaks was a bonus for our kids. We found the Sandstone Cottage to be comfortable because of how familiar everything was to us, and convenient because of how the space was so sensibly laid out. There is beauty inside and outside of this house. It rocks.

Excellent cabin in a lovely tranquil location. Great hosts with everything that you need in the cabin plus more, to have a relaxing time outside of the city. Great for fishing and beach walks, close to amentities if you need to stock up on food too.

Marissa’s place was in a great location. Close to the Manly Wharf, Museum and great cafes/Shopping etc. The building is old so it was a bit dark. Bed was super comfy and decor was lovely. The only thing was how tiny the shower and bathroom was but considering the age of the building, it’s to be expected! A tip for Uber p/up and drop/off use the back entrance on Crescent… much easier! Marissa gave me an early ck-in as I was there on business and was really appreciated!

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.

Had a lovely time. Host was very friendly and the fish and chips are amazing here! Thank you :)

Amazing location with great restaurants and cafes around . Breathtaking views . Thanks so much for such a memorable birthday weekend

Had such a beautiful peaceful stay 🙏the house was perfect and so close to the beach. Beautiful back entertainment area also. And the host was lovely and very fast msg response! I will definitely be booking again

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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!

Fantastic stay! Great location and stunning views. Can’t recommend enough.

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

This was a really great place to stay and I wouldn’t hesitate to book there again. It was spotlessly clean, well appointed and centrally located….highly recommend!

We could not fault our stay ! The apartment was well equipped , clean and in a great location ! Will definitely stay again when we are next in Manly !

Great location just off the Corso, super accessible to Manly beach and the ferry to Circular Quay. Kirsti was a super host, always accessible and responsive and helpful. Would definitely return, enjoyed my stay. Also loved the A/C, needed in view of the late summer weather.

Very nice accomodation, super close to everything and was very clean with a great view. Would definitely stay again!

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 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 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.

We had a relaxing stay at Mark's place, the location is amazing, right across from the beach and next to lagoon. 2 min walk to shops and 10 min walk to surf club, made it a very handy location. The decor was excellent, Mark has carried out a great renovation on the little beach house, it was very warm and inviting for duration of our stay.

Wonderful flat in the heart of Manly, fantastic view of the beach. Great space and well equipped, thank you so much for a great stay :)

I had a great stay at this apartment! The location is perfect—close and convenient to both the city centre of Manly and the beach. The self-contained apartment had everything I needed for a comfortable stay, though it’s worth noting it doesn’t have an oven or air fryer but it had a microwave. I especially appreciated the secure building and access to the gym and sauna, which were great bonuses. Would definitely stay again!

We stayed here for a month and enjoyed it immensely. Steps to the ocean, excellent places to eat, hiking trails, and a beautiful walk along the ocean to the ferry into Sydney. The apartment was clean, we'll organized, offered an equipped kitchen for all your needs, and had a lovely ambience. We loved being in this more peaceful and beautiful setting rather than being in the busy city of Sydney. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Nicole is an extremely caring & responsive host! She thinks of everything and thinks outside the box compared to other hosts. Very accommodating. The apartment is super clean and cosy, has a Hampton , ocean feel. The view is amazing and is in a prime location! Cronulla RSL is exactly a 7 minute walk , & 10 minute walk to time zone and restaurants ect , so very close. We will definitely back 🫶🏻🩷 xxxx

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.

What a great location! Perfect place to stay location was awesome for catching the manly ferry. Tracey was very helpful too. Will be staying again!
