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.

Sydney Harbour 1 Bedroom Gem

KeithRating, 5 stars2 months ago
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

WilliamRating, 5 stars3 weeks 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!

AbrarRating, 5 stars1 week ago
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.

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.

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.
