Sandstone Cottage, Great Mackerel Beach

Paul JohnRating, 5 stars1 month ago
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.

Stunning Manly Beach views - 906 Manly National

JaimeRating, 5 stars1 month ago
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!

Manly Beach Retreat - On The Waterfront

Brendon And SharonRating, 5 stars3 days ago
Juan's place was everything we hoped it would be. Everything was so handy. The ferry terminals were right there, Manly beach was a really short walk away. Lovely restaurants, cafe's and bars right at our doorstep. But best of all the accommodation was perfect. Comfortable bed, lovely bathroom and fully equipped kitchen. Juan was also a fantastic host - answering our questions immediately. We would highly recommend Juan's place.

Luxury Beachfront apartment on North Steyne

KateRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Absolutely exceeded our expectations. The location is amazing, literally across the road from the beautiful manly beach and a short walk to the shops and restaurants. The apartment itself is even better than the pictures, extremely spacious and comfortable. Also very easy on the eye with designer furniture. Zoe went above and beyond as a host when we left a soggy wetsuit behind and she posted it back to us. Would definitely re book. Thanks Zoe

Absolute beachfront luxury Manly apartment

AliciaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Had a wonderful stay for one month at this Airbnb! The hosts were so helpful, everything about the apartment was carefully thought about with what I needed for the full long stay. I couldn’t recommend enough, the balcony onto the beach has amazing sunrise views of the beach and surfers, with cockatoos visiting everyday. We had a very comfortable stay and the apartment is in pristine condition, you wouldn’t know guests have stayed before and the kitchen is fully stocked with everything from children’s kitchenware to hosting a dinner party! 10/10

The home was everything we hoped for and more! Hugo’s hospitality was exceptional—he made us feel completely at home from the moment we arrived. The location is unbeatable: right across from the ferry and in the heart of Manly, with everything just steps away. It was the perfect stay, and we’ll definitely be back! If you’re considering booking this Airbnb, look no further, it’s everything you’re after I assure you!!

Manly Wharf Water Front Views + Free Parking

SamRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Great location and easy walking distance to everything Manly has to offer. Room was spacious and had everything you could ask for in an apartment. Pullout sofa bed was extremely comfortable and there was plenty of linen and pillows. Bonus good quality body wash and hair products supplied. The only downside to the apartment was the Bus stop opposite the room as it becomes noisy in the morning so if your looking for a quite sleep in bring ear plugs
