We had a great stay! The kitchen was well stocked with pantry staples and cooking equipment. We were very comfortable and the location couldn’t be beat, especially during Vivid Sydney.

Harbour View Shellcove

FrancisRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Beautiful apartment with panoramic views of shell cove and beyond. The garden in front of the building offers a peaceful and private waters edge perspective of Sydney harbour. We were lucky to be there during vivid and could see fireworks on the harbour while sitting at the dinner table. The apartment is cosy and comfortable with a traditional charm to the architecture. Lovely stay.

Little Gem

natasha Rating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
One of the best AirBnB experiences we have had. Being new to Sydney we got a little lost, but the hosts took the time to send photos and details instructions, even asking us to confirm when we safely gained entry into the apartment 🤗 The apartment was clean, modern and homely and the view was beyond spectacular. Being the first night of Vivid, we got to experience fireworks on the balcony overlooking Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera House. We felt relaxed and comfortable staying in this home, compared with some Airbnb’s there was not a one single rule about how to care for the apartment, just reasonable common sense. We checked out a couple of minutes late, but again the hosts were amazingly accommodating. Such a beautiful experience. Such amazing hosts! Such a spectacular venue! Would recommend to anyone!!! 🤩🤩🤩

Sydney Harbour View Apartment

AnthonyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The place was as described and a beautiful area! Tho host was responsive with easy to find keys and great parking! Just be careful if you have a low and/or wide vehicle as car park access can be tricky. The place was clean and well kept with some slight mould on the roof in the bedroom and bathroom. Easy close access to the ferry wharf to get to circular quay. We would stay again.

Admire Harbour Views from a Hip Potts Point Sanctuary

AshiniRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We had a great stay at Tina's cozy home. It was very clean and in a very convenient neighbourhood, very easy to walk to Circular Quay/Opera House. Lots of cute cafes and restaurants in the area. View of the ocean from the room. Lots of thoughtful inclusions, had everything we needed for our stay. More affordable option in Sydney.

The View - Uninterrupted Sydney Harbour Bridge

WilliamRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Really enjoyed staying at the house - view of the bridge is spectacular. We went to two shows at the Opera House and hit the Galleries ... we were able to walk everywhere which was great. Suzanna was great giving us lot's of local recommendations from the pub across the road to high end options. She was very communicative and I couldn't have wished for more from a host.

MANLY BEACH HOUSE - 8 min walk to Manly Beach!

MylesRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
We had a lovely stay at Amanda’s house in Manly. Unlike many Airbnbs the photos don’t always match the actual accomadation but Amanda’s house in Manly actually looked even better in real life. Amanda herself was an excellent host going above and beyond to check us in, giving us local tips and was very friendly. Our children thoroughly enjoyed reading the books and playing with toys (thank you). It’s a short walk to the beach and wharf so you’re really close to all the restaurants without being in all the noise and hustle and bustle. We would have no hesitation recommending Amanda and her house. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you Amanda for creating such a lovely experience

Pagoda Point

SallyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This property is impressive beyond words and one of the most amazing properties we have stayed in. The thought in design and execution to the highest standard is evident throughout every element of the property. The furniture is unique and of exceptional quality and thoughtfully placed to enjoy every aspect this property has to offer. There are so many activities to do, yet you can also relax and take in the view from the spa or the bath tub. We went to Berowra Waters Inn for an amazing lunch - highly recommended. Our thanks to George, Patrick and Dave for a truly memorable 10th Anniversary experience. We will be back with friends in a few months.

Waterfront Playground

RececcaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This was the most beautiful place to say - I can’t express how the even though the pictures looked amazing- they didn’t do it justice. We were blown away and that sunset on the water was breathtaking. Felt so homey and we didn’t want to leave. I will be back - just delightful and the host were so kind and accomodating. PLUS SUPER COMFY FURNITURE

This Airbnb is a perfect location for seeing Sydney. You can connect to any part of the city from the bus stop adjacent to the rental. The rental itself was great - everything was clean and the rental was well equipped with everything needed for a week's stay.

Waterfront Apartment on a quiet cul-de-sac

ScottRating, 5 stars2 months ago
My wife and I stayed a week, and really enjoyed the stay. The house works well for a couple. We especially enjoyed the open living room, kitchen and dining room. The deck was wonderful too. The area was quiet at night as well. The view is fabulous and is the house's best feature. Even on a rainy day it's still lovely to stay inside, drink some coffee and read (as well as take in that view). We enjoyed walks around the Potts Point neighborhood, and it's a nice walk to the Wooloomooloo Wharf, RBG, the Art Gallery, and the Opera House/Circular Quay. There are a couple of fans, but during the mid-summer months heat might be an issue. During our stay the temperatures were moderate, and just opening the windows to catch the breeze made the house comfortable. The host was first-rate: attentive, friendly, and responsive. Thanks.
