Absolute Beachfront — The Mona View
We had an amazing time staying at Lucy's beachfront Airbnb! We spent a month there and loved waking up to the stunning sunrise every morning. The apartment was perfect for our family of four, offering everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Lucy was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns. We would absolutely love to return for another beach getaway!

Harbour Hideaway
Fabulous place! Carolyn is a wonderful host with a great eye for detail. Highly recommend staying at their gorgeous place

Seaside Luxe - Elevated Views - Walk Everywhere
Beautiful location, amazing place to stay. Would highly recommend and be more than happy to book again.

Absolute Beachfront Surf Unit 🏖 In Terrigal/Wambi
Very happy with our 2 night stay. Hosts were great to deal with very friendly and helpful. Nice spot, lots of beautiful restaurants to choose from, walk straight onto the beach, good shops to browse. Overall 10/10 for accommodation and surrounds

Newcastle Beach Apartment (No airbnb FEES)
Good communication overall, very nice apartment, a little more obvious display that scaffolding would be covering our ENTIRE view, would’ve been appreciated, but no regrets with the booking

Ripples
An amazing view and location. It is well furnished. Sue was very responsive and allowed early check in and late check out during our stay. Would stay there again!

Balmoral Beach Beauty
An excellent location for a stay alone or if you are coming as a couple! Very close proximity to the beaches and short drive to Balmoral baths! I enjoy fishing so being able to go to a location like Balmoral baths for fishing was truly an amazing experience for me! Would love to be back again in the future!

Bouddi Bungalow - Modern 2bdrm Killcare Apartment
Great place for a weekend in Killcare! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The apartment was clean, modern and had everything we could need for a lovely stay!

Sand Waterfront Lake House Lake Macquarie
We absolutely loved our time at Sand Lakehouse! It is a beautiful place to unwind and watch the water; so much bird activity on and around the lake, it was just wonderful. The house itself is spacious and appointed thoughtfully, and there was nothing we lacked. The fire pit made for a fun night of toasting marshmallows and the local ducks provided much entertainment. The bliss of having a cup of tea on the jetty cannot be overstated! Stephen was a responsive and helpful host, and there's even an IGA within walking distance for anything you've forgotten. A great place to stay; we would highly recommend.

Pagoda Point
This place is absolutely fantastic and there’s nothing to fault at all! The design of the whole place is well thought out and clean. The location is incredibly beautiful. George, Patrick and Dave were super responsive and helpful with any enquiries we had. It was a wonderful stay overall and my entire family had so much fun, they can not wait to come back already. I had so many friends asking for the Airbnb listing after seeing the pictures of the place so I can only assume how hard it would be to book this place in the future! Thank you again George, Patrick and Dave for the perfect experience.

Waterfront house w/ private Beach / kayak/ fishing
Spacious and tidy house, view was amazing!

MAGNIFICENT LAKEFRONT BEACH HOUSE. Central Coast.
This lakeside home is the perfect getaway for large family gatherings for all ages! The pool was AMAZING, the pool table was used constantly, the kitchen was well stocked and the 3 main bedrooms has the most incredible views. The beds were all very comfortable, and there were multiple TVs to suit everyone. The bathrooms were spacious and modern. The views were stunning across the lake, especially at sunset. our family of 13 had a very special and memorable stay. Justin's videos were very helpful and his communication was excellent.

Family Home on Lake Macquarie
We stayed in Kate’s place over a weekend to celebrate some significant birthdays with the family ranging in age from 71 to 0. It suited us perfectly! Well equipped for babies through to more elderly. 3 bathrooms, laundry and 5 bedrooms with separate TV room. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets, cosy fireside and fun on the lake at the bottom of the garden. Take board games and books. Location worked very well for us as some travelled from Sydney and some from Newcastle on a Friday evening. Can thoroughly recommend.

North Entrance-beach front house
Thoroughly enjoyed our short break at Kevin's immaculate holiday home. Description and photos prepared us for a delightful home and we were not disappointed. The kitchen was very well-equipped, beds were comfy and there was lots of room, so we weren't tripping over each other. Fabulous outdoor area to sit and watch the surf. No swimming at this beach, which didn't worry us as enough fun was had walking and playing in the sand. We would gladly stay in Kevin's home again and highly recommend it. Rosalie

Ocean Vista apartment with direct beach access; 11
Great place! Amazing views. Perfect set up for a family of 4. Would definitely come back!

Beachside 3 Bedroom Townhouse Mona Vale Beach
The place was very close to Mona Vale Beach. Not far from the bus to the city or Manly. Close to Mona Vale shops.

Honeysuckle Delight| Heated Pool, Gym, Sauna
The apartment and the amenities are outstanding. We returned here because we had to extend staying away from our house because of renovations. This was our first choice and u cannot recommend it enough. What really does need highlighted is how much of an outstanding history Connie is. She was so understanding, compassionate, super friendly and flexible. She deserves 10 stars.

Ocean View, Waterfront Designer 1 Bed Apartment
Jonathan's place was exactly what I needed for my stay in Sydney. It was within walking distance of shops, restaurants, and the ferry station, and it was peaceful after a long day in the city. I would recommend it to anyone needing a home away from home while in Manly or Sydney.

Beachfront Penthouse w Huge Balcony & Garage
We stayed at Daniel’s place as a family with 2 young kids. We had a long drive to get there and arrived late so I couldn’t quite work out the check in instructions I messaged Daniel and he replied instantly helping me through it! Lovely large apartment directly across from the beach. Lovely location a bit quieter than the other end but a short walk to everything. There’s a few flights of stairs which we were aware of prior to booking, was a bit tricky with the kids prams and stuff but to be expected! I can’t fault the Airbnb and loved how responsive and welcoming Daniel was :) Bonus that there’s garaged parking big enough for a 4WD. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Ocean View Oasis - On the beach
First, Cas is extremely easy to communicate with- very timely, flexible & supportive! Thanks so much! Next- the location could not be any better- the absolute best spot on the beaches… everything you need in short flat walk. View is excellent! The balcony is perfect to relax and read a book and still feel connected to the Freshwater community.

Waterview Retreat: Free Parking & Near the Mall
The property was great and the cleanliness was impressive. I had a wonderful time and would definitely consider booking it again in the future.

Cosy Manly Beach Hideaway
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Beaut spot mate!! Great location hidden in a little retrieve 2 mins from the beach. Natural light in the house, comfy couch and slept amazingly. Thanks Nick!
