Waterfront Apartment & Garden
We stayed here in this unspoilt part of paradise for 4 nights and everything that we experienced from location, weather and amenities of the home were beyond our expectations and made our time here very memorable. Highly recommend Anne's place for a very relaxing and peaceful time away. Thank you Anne for your communication before, during and after our stay.

Sydney Darling Harbour Sydney Views
Great place to stay, easy walk to many attractions in the city. Kevin was great and responded to any questions promptly. The apartment was as described and we enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend.

Minnamurra riverfront studio
It was exactly what we needed after walking the Royal Coastal track! Thoughtful touches made us feel right at home, and the apartment was beautifully clean. We enjoyed the serene river views with plentiful birdlife which were even better for being on the first floor.

Addison's Escape: A Breezy Beachfront Beauty
We had a beautiful stay. Loved the furnishings and styling of the apartment, photos definitely didn’t do it justice. Beds and linen were comfy, it was clean, kitchen had everything you would need to cook at home. Amazing location - walking distance to beach, playground, cafe and restaurants and just a short car ride away from Shell Cove and within half an hour of places like Berry and Minnamurra rainforest, both of which we visited on the trip. Will definitely stay again!
Admire Harbour Views from a Hip Potts Point Sanctuary
Tina's place is in a great location to check out the city scenes. The space is efficient and very clean. She provides everything you need to use from heating up a plate of food to making a cup of coffee. Perfect for a solo trip or a romantic getaway.

Marina Shores Shell Cove

Kiama Aspect on Jones Beach
The grandkids were not only allowed but welcomed in that there were toys and beach stuff there for them. We didn't need to take the portable cot as one was provided which was better and bigger than the portable one so made more room in the car. The house was very comfortable, clean and had everything that we needed. The location was perfect. Directly opposite a playground and the beach both of which we spent loads of time at. Found our new favourite picnic spot nearby, but the location will just have to be our secret. It was a very relaxing special place to be with our son and his family. Fluer also allowed our other son and his partner to visit.

By The River-River front location with water views
Dianne has been a wonderful host. The check-in process was clear and concise. The greetings card left on the kitchen bench with lots of helpful information and recommendations. We really enjoyed our short getaway during the weekend in Dianne’s lovely house.

Bask at Loves Bay, Kiama -stylish oceanfront
The stay was remarkable and I dare say one of the best Airbnb places we have stayed in. The view surrounded by the ocean is amazing and the house really felt like home. This is big considering I was travelling with a 7 month old baby and a 3 year old toddler. I felt the house had what we needed as a family and it was a nice space to take it slow on our trip and enjoy the surroundings. The beds were clean and the kitchen was well equipped. The bathrooms were very clean too. Just to take note there’s steps going down into the house and that laundry is outside the house but just a few steps away, probably to take note in case of bad weather. Thank you Amanda for being so responsive and for your incredibly wonderful house!

Bundeena Beachside Oasis
The photos do not do the view justice. was so very relaxing to be on the water and just a few minutes walk to Jibbon beach.

The Shorebird - Hamptons Style Waterfront Home
Amazing place! 10 min from Jervis bay beaches in a quiet and peaceful area. View on Santuary point lake was the best with direct access to the walk all around the lake. Place was very clean and nicely decorated, freshly new and modern, all equipped! Thomas was very helpful and responsive when we needed.

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.
