Beachfront vacation rentals in Shelly Beach

You want to stay here. The Sandstone Cottage has an exceptional view and an ideal location. The dwelling is well maintained, very clean and perfectly serviced. Being able to use the provided water toys and kayaks was a bonus for our kids. We found the Sandstone Cottage to be comfortable because of how familiar everything was to us, and convenient because of how the space was so sensibly laid out. There is beauty inside and outside of this house. It rocks.

Our stay at Shane's apartment was excellent! Shane was helpful and responsive from the get go and directions/check-in instructions were clear and easy to follow. The apartment was clean, tidy and homey, with all the essential amenities and more. The Parsley Bay area was absolutely stunning, with beautiful views and peaceful surrounds. It is an easy walk to Watson's Bay for seafood or a ferry ride--bus stop right outside the apartment. We really enjoyed our stay, would highly recommend staying here to others and can't wait to return.

Our stay at the Redhead Beach House was fantastic. The house itself was well designed, spacious, clean and beautifully decorated. We were welcomed with a platter and wine waiting for us and everything was well stocked and easy to find. Great selection of board games, table tennis and arcade game meant there was plenty to do when we were at the house. The area was beautiful and quiet. A great beach over the road - both our 11 year old daughter and our dog loved it! Overall, I would highly recommend. Thank you Natalie and Collin for your hospitality.

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

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

Perfect for walking to everything in the local area, the beach, restaurants, clubs and bars along the strip where basically at your front door yet you are still private enough for it to be very restful when needed. Lovely little find and an extra bonus for our cute daily visits from the resident dog. Thanks for hosting.

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

Lovely stay right next to Merewether beach. Very comfortable bed and great bathroom facilities.

Fantastic stay! Great location and stunning views. Can’t recommend enough.

This was a really great place to stay and I wouldn’t hesitate to book there again. It was spotlessly clean, well appointed and centrally located….highly recommend!

We could not fault our stay ! The apartment was well equipped , clean and in a great location ! Will definitely stay again when we are next in Manly !

Excellent location, close to Darling Harbour and the city, with plenty of shops and restaurants. With easy access to the light rail, buses and trains. The apartment is clean, comfortable and has stunning views across the city. Tommy was an amazing host and any enquiries we had were quickly answered with the minimum of fuss. Would highly recommend 🤩

Had such a beautiful peaceful stay 🙏the house was perfect and so close to the beach. Beautiful back entertainment area also. And the host was lovely and very fast msg response! I will definitely be booking again

Great location, place is very well maintained. Kitchen has everything one needs. Jeremy and Jane are very helpful and supportive. Manly is a vibrant and scenic place, the view from the balcony is amazing. Lots of things to do and places to visit. During our stay, the weather was perfect and there were plenty of opportunities for walking, swimming, looking for wildlife. Thank you, Jeremy and Jane for your support and hospitality. Next time we will be in Sydney, we will book again.

We really enjoyed Christian’s place. Unbeatable location, right in the heart of Manly. We also rented a car and were pleased the rental came with a car space. We asked for a slightly later checkout and this was accommodated. Also on the day we arrived the apartment was ready for check in early. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

Such a great location, so close to the ocean yet private and cosy. Near everything. Excellent

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!

Not a bad word! Place was stunning, clean and the host was great with communication.

This was such a lovely beach home, the kind you dream of! It was wonderful having views of the water from every corner of the home. Everything in the home was beautiful and thoughtfully furnished. We tried kayaking and fishing and enjoyed it very much. The boys enjoyed playing on the lawn outside and the husband prepared a simple bbq on the patio. The kitchen was also very well equipped. We enjoyed our stay here very much and will definitely be recommending friends over!

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!

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!

We stayed at Anna’s place over the long weekend for a friends birthday and it was absolutely amazing! The house is very clean, had a great spa and lots of space. The pool table and darts were a huge hit too! Locals cafes and restaurants were within walking distance and so was the lovely walk along the lake. Anna is so lovely and responded to all of our inquiries promptly. Highly recommend staying at this gorgeous place.

Wir haben eine sehr schöne, ruhige Woche in diesem tollen Haus verbringen dürfen. Insbesondere die Nähe zu den diversen Stränden, die Aussicht vom Balkon und die absolute Ruhe Nachts haben uns sehr gut gefallen! Alle anderen wichtigen Sachen für de täglichen Bedarf erhält man durch eine kurze Fahrt nach Ettalong Beach. Gerade wenn man Ruhe und Seelenfrieden sucht und am Meer einfach mal abschalten will, ist dies wirklich eine Reise wert. Vielen Dank an Nel dafür, dass wir ihre Gäste sein durften!

Such a clean, comfortable place to stay - and so handy to everything. Really homely and the hosts were magic to deal with. We’ll be back!!
