Waterfront vacation rentals in Australia

Great couple of nights overlooking the harbour with several eateries within a short stroll. Fantastic views, great location and close to several places to visit, we loved Kiama! We would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone. Thanks Noel & Sally for a brilliant stay.

Great stay in a fabulous location. Apartment is very cute and comfortable. Lovely eclectic vibe. Bianca is a great host - very helpful and welcoming. Will definitely stay there again :)

The airbnb was clean and modern. Very convenient location and comfortable stay for a short trip.

What a great spot! What the perfect experience & really enjoyed our stay. Bonus was being able to have our dog with us and is a great set up with having a yard available. Brad was super helpful and friendly. Will definitely return. Thanks so much Brad.

Great location . The apartment was clean and well appointed.

Great apartment with lovely water views from deck and bedroom and living room. Good amenities and close to water and city.

Crystal met us in front of her building. She showed us the apartment which was very nice and clean. We loved having the terrace and view overlooking the bay. The space is excellent for a couple. You will be very pleased if you rent this apartment.

The apartment was absolutely spotless and beautifully decorated. Our host went above and beyond to make sure we felt at home. Anna was very responsive and considerate, ensuring our stay was comfortable from start to finish.Excellent apartment location with good connectivity and beautiful balcony views.

We had such a lovely stay right by the bay. Waking up to those stunning water views was a dream! The place was spotless, the kitchen was really well stocked, and everything felt super cozy and comfortable. Perfect spot for a relaxing getaway—couldn’t have asked for a better location.

My partner and I had such a wonderful stay at the cabin. The place was peaceful, cosy and surrounded by absolutely stunning natural beauty. Perfect for unwinding and disconnecting. The cabin had a warm, welcoming feel that made it easy to relax right away. Our host, Heidi was friendly and communicative, making everything smooth start to finish. Would definitely recommend anyone to stay here for a serene getaway!

Helen was kind-hearted, receptive, prompt and extremely generous with her service and ensuring that we had the most correct and updated information. There was such attention to detail in the home which made the stay that extra step personal and warm. Helen’s home at a certain charm and character which again, made our stay delightful. The location was absolutely stunning and were walking distance to the essentials. Our group wanted to thank Helen again for allowing us to stay in their beautiful home for the weekend.

Our second stay here. Loved it. Excellent location. Clean, well maintained. Will definitely be back.

We had a brilliant few days at this stunning property in Noosa Waters. Clean and tastefully decorated it was spacious and comfortable. The pool and outdoor area were also a bonus. The location is absolutely perfect - a short stroll to the river and all the cafes, shops and restaurants it boosts and so close to an amazing organic food shop with delicious smoothies and salads. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend.

We enjoyed the house and area for an extended family trip. Lots of room and activities at the house. Kids loved the painting spot, and the short walk to fish off the jetty. Some nice foreshore walks, with a well formed track to Verona Sands. Thanks

Lovely house and well maintained. Good location with big supermarkets and restaurants within walking distance. Host was really responsive and helpful. Great stay, would definitely book again in the near future.

Thank you Shannon and Stefani for allowing us to stay in your beautiful paradise! Had everything we need for a large group and we had a spectacular sunset. Spent most of our time out on the beautiful deck overlooking the water! Shannon and Stefani also accommodated us for early check in which was very appreciated. Highly recommend!

The location, the view and the sound of the ocean waves made our stay in this apartment a wonderful experience! We had no trouble communicating with our hosts, who were nice and helpful! We can only recommend the apartment for future guests.

Great host who went above and beyond during Cyclone Alfred, accommodating our extended stay when we couldn’t leave the state. The place was fantastic - great location and excellent amenities. We had a small issue at check-in, but the host resolved it smoothly. Thanks for having us!

Thanks so much Mark & Leah for a wonderful stay. The view from this appartment is just stunning and the appartment itself was spacious, spotless and so comfortable for our stay. Bed was super comfy too and despite being right on the front the place was very soundproofed. Mark was very responsive when we were getting in and on the lead up to our stay. Thanks!

was a great place to stay with my 3 boys. the pool was amazing. beds were comfy. definitely want to stay again.

Great stay with access from the warf and bus stops. Host was very responsive and made sure everything was right. Loved the proximity to several great eats and a grocery store. Will definitely be my first pick for the next stay.

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful apartment right in the heart of the Darwin Waterfront. The location is absolutely unbeatable — just steps away from fantastic restaurants, cafes, and the refreshing lagoon. Waking up to stunning water views each morning was a highlight of our trip! The apartment itself was spotless, stylish, and fully equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was well-stocked, the beds were incredibly comfortable, and the balcony was the perfect spot to unwind with a drink and soak in the vibrant atmosphere. Communication with the host was seamless, with clear instructions and quick responses to any queries. The added touches — like local recommendations and thoughtful amenities — made us feel right at home. If you're visiting Darwin, staying at this waterfront gem is a must. It’s the perfect mix of luxury, convenience, and a true taste of the Darwin lifestyle. Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again!

Samantha’s place is a relaxing retreat with everything you can possibly need for a beach holiday. It has a homey feel with comfortable beds, a good shower and kitchen amenities. The location is perfect- super close to the beach and Tods cafe.

Harbour View is an outstanding property and we had a lovely stay there. Great location with stunning views across the harbour. A pleasant walk to Mosman bay Wharf where you can get a ferry to Circular Quays where there are many restaurants, the opera house and trams to other paces in Sydney. There is a closer Ferry Wharf at South Mosman, but that was closed for refurbishment while we were there. The apartment was clean, tidy and very comfortable. Fiona, the host, was really helpful. There were a generous selection of goodies when we arrived, including a bottle of Prosecco, which was very welcome after a long journey. One issue to be aware of though is that the parking spot is on level 1 and to reach it you need to go down a spiral road via the car park on level 2. There is limited height in the space provided with the apartment, so would recommend a small to medium sized car. The walk to the wharf is hilly so might not be ideal for everyone but you can use Uber if you prefer.
