Vacation rentals with a kayak in Darling Harbour

We’ve had an amazing stay at Dave’s place, it’s a great weekend getaway from the city, the hot tub, the cozy fireplace and the kayaking were my highlight. The kitchen has everything you’ll ever need and more. We came back completely fresh and recharged. I couldn’t recommend it more.

The places was clean and easy to find. It had everything we needed and extra. The other guests on this short vacation walked and and were just wow-ed by how the place looked. It was a great stay! Thank you so much for approving our booking!

Amazing! Ainslie and Dan were fantastic hosts & the property just delightful, well and truly exceeding our expectations. The property is well furnished, beautifully styled, immaculate and well equipped with everything you could possible need for a relaxing stay. The additional fridge and pantry items were a lovely surprise and meant we could settle in without the need to feel rushed to get the shops. The location was perfect being so close to essential amenities with the views of Lake Macquarie just superb. We particularly enjoyed having our morning coffee out on the balcony watching the sunrise. Thank you Ainslie and Dan for a lovely stay, we hope to be back again soon. Robyn, Sean, Courtney, Steph, Ivy & Lily.

Beautiful place in a beautiful location! Access to kayaks and a boat made the stay that much more enjoyable, and house was well stocked with everything you could need.

We had such an amazing time at this beautiful home. From the moment we booked, communication with the host was excellent—clear, timely, and helpful throughout our entire stay. The house itself was stunning: clean, beautifully decorated, and incredibly relaxing with breathtaking views. The amenities were top-notch and made everything feel so easy and comfortable. Our whole family—including the dogs—had the best time. It truly felt like a getaway where everyone could unwind and enjoy. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and are already planning our next visit. Could not recommend this place enough!

BOOK THE STAY! Words can’t describe how much we enjoyed our weekend here. The hosts are responsive and helpful, the short boat transfer from the marina is seamless ( thanks Collin), and the views from the house are unbeatable. The wifi is fast, the smart TV’a were great , the house is well stocked, and you have everything you need to relax. We had an absolutely magical time and though we live out of the country we will make every effort to come back!

The treehouse is in such a tranquil and beautiful spot. Inside is very cosy and between the wood stove and gas heater it was toasty warm inside on cold evenings. The kitchen is very well set up with everything you could need for cooking and also a good selection of sauces, tea, coffee and staples. The treehouse has been very thoughtfully set up with nice touches like blankets on the balcony. Highly recommended for a relaxing place to get away close to Sydney..we thoroughly enjoyed it!!

Thanks Julie. House works well for our group. We’ll be back when we’re back in town. Cheers

The Church was a gorgeous place to spend a long weekend. Lovely surroundings and great facilities.

Well appointed. So many items supplied in kitchen and bathrooms that I have not seen at any other AIRBNB. Easy access. Very clean and well stocked with cleaning items and supplies incase of an accident or spill so you clean up and continue to enjoy your stay. Location close to cafes and restaurants at Lemon Tree Passage. So many recreational items in shed to help you enjoy the coastal location and water ways. Julie took the time to reach out to us when we did not reply to emails as we were travelling and not opening our laptop and lodging in every day about dietary requirements re type of milk to put in fridge. In conclusion well done Julie you are a credit as a super host.

Stephanie was a great help getting inside as the second gate can be missed. But lovely cosy home perfect for winter getaway and exploring the area. Feeding the horses and ponies was a highlight and sitting outside by the fire pit looking at the stars was magical

We had an amazing stay! The place was fantastic – clean, comfortable, and perfectly located. Kate was incredibly responsive and friendly, making everything super easy. The jetty was a highlight, with plenty of activities to keep us entertained. Highly recommend for a relaxing and fun getaway!

This place is home away from home, there is everything you would want for a great holiday, from life jackets for you and the kids to all you need in the shower. I would recommend Pavla and Luke's accommodation to anyone looking for a great family holiday.

Howard was a wonderful host. The house was immaculate even came in to awesome music playing when we first arrived, the scenery was breathtaking and the overall experience was something you don’t get often in the city. My partner and I will definitely be back!

We enjoyed staying at this place. The amenities within the place are amazing and well thought. Simone is also very helpful in giving recommendations of places to visit in the area.

We had a lovely stay at this waterfront property. The views were stunning and the little touches, like a bottle of wine on arrival, were a nice addition. The host was friendly and accommodating making sure we had everything we needed. It’s a great spot for a relaxing getaway and we’d happily stay again!

Jenny was extremely helpful, when we struggled finding the address due to it being dark outside by the time we got there. Beautiful place, everything you need. Right next to the beach. Had a great time :)

2nd year here for her annual girls weekend absolutely perfect great location beautiful host and everything as described. Great price for a relaxing time.

Elize was a great host and the place was perfect for our needs.

We had a great long weekend stay at Anders' Great Mackeral Cabin. The cabin is a bit tricky to get to with small kids and a bit of luggage but it was an adventure and Anders was extremely helpful in making sure we were well prepared and had everything we needed. Once we were there the cabin had everything we needed and there was plenty to keep everyone entertained and relaxed. The views from the cabin are spectacular and we loved spending some time in the bush and down at the beach. We would definitely travel back to the cabin for another visit.

It was a perfect getaway, amidst the nature. The property is so beautiful and well maintained. Louise has kept it top-notch. It has all the amenities that you wouldn’t expect in the middle of the woods. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cabin & would highly recommend it to anyone who needs a break from the fast city life and want a relaxing off from it.

Our overnight stay at Liz and Larry’s cabin was perfect for our needs with other family members joining us in Patonga for the long weekend to celebrate my 75th birthday. It was ideally located for us all to meet at The Boat House for breakfast and dinner. The creek behind is very pretty and the bush walks very accessible. We really enjoyed our stay

Staying on the river was paradise. It was beautiful - especially from the deck! My only two suggestions is to share there is no wifi and that the beds are pushed up against a wall. Also, at least for us, there was no data connection. We were able to go into town and use the cafe wifi, but if we had seen in advance (there was a message about no wifi at the bottom of the description), we would have prepared better for working remotely. Also for older people, the beds only allow one person to get out and the other person has a wall they sleep along. Other than these two minor items that can be communicated in the description, the accommodation, the location and all of the extras are excellent. We enjoyed the bbq, the kayaks, the hammock and the firepit. Everything was comfortable and the a/c was helpful sleeping at night when there was a controlled burn. We definitely recommend staying here.

We had a wonderful stay at Astrid’s beautiful hideaway. With its spectacular river views and peaceful, secluded location, it was the ideal weekend escape from the city. Kayaking along the river was a scenic highlight, and cosying up at night by the wood fire made it even more special. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a romantic getaway nestled amongst nature.
