Waterfront apartment rentals

Cozy City-view 1 bed+study home in the central CBD
The property is in a fantastic location. Frank was very responsive and friendly, and kindly agreed to our early check-in. The place was also clean and well-kept.

Harbour Views, Sunny, and Central 1BR
Ideal location for exploring Sydney. We loved all the shops and excellent bars and restaurants in Potts Point. The view over the harbour is magnificent and the apartment is well appointed and ideal for a couple. The host was excellent and I hope to return again next year.

Luxury Woolloomooloo waterfront
Superb apartment in impressive Wharf building, with harbour views across to the Art Gallery of NSW. Excellent location with only a short walk to Potts Point in one direction and the Art Gallery in the other. Friendly Bars just across the road and others in the Wharf building itself.

Waterfront Bridgeview Retreat in Cremorne Point
Stunning location, beautiful walk trails along the harbour. Cosy, clean and comfortable

Spectacular Harbour studio-suite
WOW. Where do I start? Absolutley blown away with Kenny's lovely studio/ the view is crazy Spectacular/ you have to see it to believe it, with every extra amenity fully provided/highest praise for beautiful location with perfect access to everywhere on ferry bus just a few metres from front entrance and beautiful interesting walkways with more breathtaking views restaurants cafes and places to sit or picnic conveniently available/safe area and so clean. Made my stay best time imaginable. Lived like a millionaire with that view 7 days/nights. You can't get better/ Host Kenny was assuring with easy contact if needed. Absolute value for my money well spent. I highly reccomend staying there and wished I had stayed longer. Made my holiday/visit very happy indeed. Thankyou so much Kenny.

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!

One Darling Waterfront City View
This lovely, spacious apartment boasts a stunning 180-degree view of the city and harbor. It is conveniently located near public transportation and within walking distance of many restaurants and attractions. The apartment is very spacious and well-equipped. The fireworks view is fantastic.

Sydney Harbour 1 Bedroom Gem
This was the second time we have stayed at Louisa's apartment, and it was equally as enjoyable. Milsons Point is a perfect place to stay in Sydney, since it's easy to walk, train, or ferry to the city or almost anyway. The village is a delight, as are the close by villages if Lavender Bay and Kirribilli. The apartment is great, with superb views. It's nicely decorated and has everything you need. Louisa is a fantastic host - incredibly responsive and always checking in to see if everything is okay. This is where you should stay when in Sydney, without a doubt.

The View - Uninterrupted Sydney Harbour Bridge
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.

Chic Large 4 Bedroom Water View House @ The Rocks
Beautiful host!! So sweet and response time was very good!! She gave me lots of recommendations for spots in Sydney. The air bnb itself was very cleanly and just such an awesome spot and looked exactly like the photos if not better!

MANLY BEACH HOUSE - 8 min walk to Manly Beach!
Loved my week at Amanda’s. The welcome “weekly shop” (fresh basics + juice) was a lovely touch after a long journey. Quiet street, yet a quick walk to Manly Beach, cafés, and the ferry—perfect spot. Home was spotless, comfy beds, sharp kitchen, bright living space. Amanda’s fast replies and local tips sealed the deal. Five stars.

Treetop Water View Sanctuary
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

SeaPod - Beach Front Holiday Home
SeaPod was the perfect location for a getaway visit to Sydney with my 2 daughters. We explored the local natural environment with trail runs, walks and particularly loved the morning swim in the ocean pool. Spectacular views from every room of the ocean, the surfers, the dolphins and the waves were highlights of our experience. We would love to come back in the near future.

Narrabeen Luxury Beachpad
Our stay was amazing! The place was spotless and exactly like the photos! Francine our stay extremely comfortable. 5 stars through and through!

Bundeena Beachside Oasis
The photos do not do the view justice. was so very relaxing to be on the water and just a few minutes walk to Jibbon beach.

Stunning 4BR Waterfront House w/pool in Sth Coogee
This was a magnificent place for a long weekend with a group of friends. The views are spectacular, and the place very private. The house was spotless and very clean. I wanted to bring in some flowers and balloons prior to arrival and the host was incredibly accommodating with regards to allowing those services in at the check in time. Would definitely stay again!

The kitchen needs to be cleaned from cockroches. The glass dining table has to be fixed to the base securely.

Modern apt in Central Sydney: Harbour Views & Pool
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
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.

Stunning Bondi Beach Ocean View full apartment
Amazing location we stayed last minute for one night in Bondi. Perfect for couple. You couldn’t get closer to the ocean and literally next to Bondi Icebergs. We will def be back.

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.
