Family-friendly vacation rentals in Manly Council

We had an incredible time staying! The apartment was even more amazing than we thought. It had everything we needed, and Sally dad - John warm welcome and gift were the best parts of our trip. Thank you so much for that! We’d love to come back to your place again in the spring if we ever get the chance.

Family of 3 stayed for a week and loved it. Great location, loved the sauna & spa & pool. Would stay again and highly recommend

Incredible spot. We watched the dolphins leaping from the waves and couldn't have asked for more. We'll be back in whale season! Great setup. Highly recommended. Richard and Beck were great hosts. Really responsive and helpful. Avalon town is a great spot too. Lots of good places to eat and get coffee. minor notes: the path down to the rockpools is a little more advanced than anticipated. We turned back with our three year old. if you're napping kids in the middle of the day the blinds don't block much light coming in.

Great location just off the Corso, super accessible to Manly beach and the ferry to Circular Quay. Kirsti was a super host, always accessible and responsive and helpful. Would definitely return, enjoyed my stay. Also loved the A/C, needed in view of the late summer weather.

Coco’s place was perfect, great location and everything we needed for a Sydney city stay. The apartment has everything we needed which made or stay super easy. Coco met us and checked us in and is a fantastic host.

We had a lovely stay, view was amazing. Location was fantastic. Apartment was spacious and kitchen well equiped. Would totally recommend staying, will we again in the future. Thank you

Walking distance to everything Darling harbour has to offer! great coffee from the motel Cafe across the street. Pyrmont bridge hotel for beers and happy hour. Coles, restaurants, aquarium, lyric theatre, Crown etc etc, we walked to Queen Vic building and Pitt st mall easily. Balcony great for fireworks and view from the roof pool was awesome. There are 2 new harbourside apartment complexes under construction that will impact the view eventually from this 3rd floor unit but I think a decent harbour view will still be available - we experienced no noise from construction. Unit was neat and clean, could do with a few updates/improvements which i have emailed. The host was responsive and friendly. queen bed was comfy and plenty of pillows blankets etc. All up a great place in the perfect spot for us. Would happily rebook.

Fantastic stay. Liz's place is ideally located for anyone needing to easily get around and visit Sydney. Communication from Liz throughout was super helpful and great to have such a helpful host. would recommend

We stayed at Mercedes’ place for a week and had a fabulous time. Spacious and airy, perfectly clean with all mod cons. In particular, I loved the barbecuing station in the verdant garden. It’s in a great location - quiet but five minutes from the beach and bars, cafés, shops etc. Mercedes was super friendly and quick to respond to any queries etc. She left the flat full with everything you’d need on arrival - fruit, snacks, towels etc. - and all you’d need for a longer stay - washing powder, fairy liquid, olive oil, spices etc. In short, we had a great stay!

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.

Remarkably well provisioned. Beds were super comfy and the location is spot on. Very easy to get to the city or walking distance to Bondi beach. Great host!

I enjoyed dealing with Kate who deserves her reputation as a super host. She was unlike some other hosts I have dealt with very flexible with check in and check out times. I really hope that I have the opportunity to stay in this lovely property again and wish her all the best

Extraordinary, sublime, what an absolute paradise. The bonus of the boat being there for use was magical and we ended up having the best swim ever up the river. Cannot recommend this highly enough. A must. I can’t wait to return.

Absolutely wonderful stay! The space was immaculate, comfortable, and perfectly located. Danny was welcoming and very responsive. Highly recommend! Will gladly stay again when back in the area!

This place is simply lovely, clean, homely, close to everything, the host I feel is a great guy, George went out of his way to help with anything, and his response time was quick.. I’d stay again in a heartbeat. Gorgeous place 🙌

We stayed at this lovely Airbnb for 2 nights to visit family in Avalon. Patti and Maya were highly responsive from the time of booking to the end of the stay. The home was perfect for our party of three and 2 small dogs. It was clean, cosy and everything we needed was available and then some. We had no trouble finding the home, entering it or finding a parking space close to the home on the street. The 2 bedrooms with ensuites was a perfect setup for us as well as the open concept living space. The TV and wifi worked well. We spent a great deal of time in the outdoor living space and even though it rained we still enjoyed it. The neighbourhood is quiet and locals friendly. Close to coffee shops, beaches, restaurants, grocery, pubs and clubs. I have a senior dog that has high anxiety when away from home and he was extremely chilled in this environment. The only negative thing I have to say is that we didn’t stay long enough. 10/10 Highly recommend.

An excellent location with stunning views. It meant that we could walk everywhere easily which was exactly what we wanted. Gail was extremely helpful with checkin which helped when we had just come from a very long flight!

We loved staying at this wonderful place. The location was perfect. The house was clean and cozy. Great location to enjoy the downtown lifestyle.

Place was great and Victoria was really helpful!! We had such a great time and it was really clean also. Not anyone’s fault but worth noting that you’re unable to leave your bags the next day if you’re leaving Syd after your check out time.

apartment was beautifully clean, well equipped and Susie very responsive and helpful. would recommend wholeheartedly..

Great flat in a highly desirable location, good amenities in the building, very helpful and responsive host.

We have stayed with Genie often while visiting family nearby. We enjoying catching the bus at the end of the street and making our way to the station to catch the train to the city. There are parks and walks nearby, and we regularly walk to a cafe in Asquith for coffee. Genie's place is roomy and private, with everything we need for our stay. We particularly appreciate the washing machine and drying space.

We had a lovely time at Rod and Lynsey’s place. All of the needs for young families was very well thought out from night lights to access to a huge trampoline and simple things like washing machine detergent and milk for breakfast after a late night arrival. They also offered tips to travel more easily into Sydney city and there bar area was a fun and relaxing retreat for parents. Thanks very much, we look forward to visiting at the same time next year!

This accommodation was perfect for what we needed it for. It didn’t quite match the pictures in terms of furniture etc but that didn’t put us off at all. John and his family were helpful and accommodating. Even letting us use their dryer when it rained. It was simply a base for us and the pool was an added bonus. It was a lot cheaper than other accommodation nearby which sold it to us and I am glad that it did. I think we will definitely be booking to stay here again in the future.
