- Leanne (9/5): -
- Søren (8/5): - Fint beliggenhed Synes det var fint
- Brendan (9/5): Suberb communciation and ease of access. Thanks very much - Great location. Superb communication nil
- Graeme (10/5): -
- Taame (10/5): Great value and a really central spot whilst visiting Manly Beach - Very central and easy to access Nothing to complain about
- Susan (10/5): Fantastic Manly Apartment - Fully stocked Kitchen. Cleaning products provided. The host, Lucie was excellent meeting us on our arrival, making sure that we were OK with everything. Also the refund of 100 AUD for the minor inconvenience of a maintenance worker spending a short amount of time in the apartment. Could not fault it. We would be more than happy to book again if we were to return to Australia. Cannot think of any negatives, probably because there weren't any
- June (9/5): The owner kept me well informed. The apartment was modern / clean and had everything I needed. - Keys were in lock box and information provided was easy to follow
- Martin (9/5): Great amenities, great price, and fantastic location close to EVERYTHING!! - This is a small, yet very comfortable apartment right in the heart of Manly, as the name says! The bed is comfortable, the bathroom and shower are big, clean, and work great, and the kitchen is great and well-equipped with everything you need. The *location* is PRIMO, central and close to the beach, the Corso, and pedestrian-only areas with amazing cafes and shops (and no traffic noise as the building is adjacent to the pedestrian-only area. There is also a great little balcony, although the view is not particularly spectacular, you have to pay A LOT more for a rental or hotel with a beach or
harbour view. There is however a nice rooftop pool with lots of sun!! The people that rent the apartment are also really helpful and super-nice and were always available for questions, etc., and the place was lovely and clean when i arrived. This is a fantastic rental, with a great price, all the facilities, and as close as you can be to the beach, ferry, harbour, scenic walks, cafés., etc. The only thing that is not perfect is the view, but you have to pay far more for a beach view, and given the close walking distance to EVERYTHING i would rate this rental properly very highly, especially if you want to live like a local. :) Liked everything! So many great features, the only thing lacking is killer views, but the balcony offers a view on to the side street / pedestrian walkway, and shops so it is all in all a great stay / location
- Emma (10/5): Perfect stay in Manly - We loved the apartment. Small but had everything we needed
The owners were so helpful and kindly posted our sons elephant to us at when we’d left him behind
We loved the roof top pool
I would recommend and definitely stay again
Thank you
- Suzanne (9/5): Loved it! Location was perfect. Enjoyed our 3 night stay. Thankyou. - Location was excellent. Close to EVERYTHING...the beach, the eateries, the ferry, coastal ocean walk to Shelly Beach & lookout and the pretty harbourside walk. Both walks were cemented all the way. Manly is a lovely place.
The apartment was clean and was well equipped with everything needed. It was perfect for our 3 night stay.
Hosts were very obliging & helpful and they really want you to enjoy your stay.
Nice to be able to sit outside on the small neat balcony.
A large tv, free wi-fi, free Netflix, toiletries, dish washing liquid, milk, tea & coffee were all provided.
There were umbrellas if raining and beach low chairs in the wardrobe if needed or wanted.
The bed was not comfortable for me with my sore back but my husband thought the bed was fine. Nothing the hosts can do about this:
1. Noisy rainbow lorikeets roosted every evening in trees near the apartment. We had to close the balcony door to hear the tv. They quietened down by bedtime and did not disturb our sleep.
2. Noisy water pipes when people above had a shower. We had to close the bathroom door to hear the tv.
Something the hosts could probably fix - the volume on the tv was pre-set at 18, it could not be increased or decreased which was quite annoying when there are other noises around and you needed to increase it OR when your partner is sleeping and you only want the tv on very softly. The volume choice was 18 or mute...yes, that was annoying. But it did not annoy us so much that it spoiled our stay.
- Robert (10/5): A fantastic apartment for a short stay in Manly, couldn’t fault anything. - The location is perfect, close to the beach and all Manly amenities. The quality of the furnishings are first rate and it has a nice balcony space. The owners were extremely attentive always in touch. Nothing
- John (6/5): The location is absolutely first class but this studio needs attention. - The studio is in the heart of Manly and it is an easy walk to beach, shops and restaurants. The access instructions provided were very good and owners contact numbers were listed plus their offers of assistance if needed. The building has two lifts and the larger lift wasn’t working during our stay. The small one – listed capacity 6 but really only 4 – was operating. We used the fire stairs to leave the building but could not return that way because of the building security.
The studio presents well. Kitchen has microwave, oven, cook top, pots and frypan, a small but adequate fridge/freezer and coffee machine. Sufficient cutlery and crockery, albeit an eclectic collection! There is an air conditioner and a ceiling fan. Large screen TV and wi-fi is good. The bed has a foam mattress. REALLY!!! Ok if you are used to a soft bed, but not good if you prefer a hard one. We like the latter, hence my wife had 4 very bad nights sleep. The lounge certainly has seen better days. You get what you pay for with the quality of the linen too, cheap. The whole studio looks and feels like EVERYTHING (except the TV) has come from the Salvos!!
An oven tray to warm the morning croissants would be good. Some tissues would be a nice touch. Plenty of toiletries and toilet paper though. There are two lifter chairs at the breakfast bar but only one works. If you like leaving your suitcase open so you can get to things, there isn't anywhere to place it apart from on the bed or on the breakfast bar.
Watch out for the low ceiling fan, don't raise your arm or you will get hit by it. It should be placed over the bed where it would be much safer.
Of major concern is the temperature of the hot water. Seriously, seriously, scoldingly hot. Be warned.
Oh and a minor irritant, there are two locks on the front door with a sign warning guests not to lock the bottom one as it is very hard to unlock. Why not just replace the lock???
- Ron (8/5): Lovely, Great location clean property close to everything will definitely stay again - The couch wasn't the most comfy.
- Stephen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lowe (1/5): Will never go back. don’t recommend - Clean Uncomfortable beds ,hot, sofa uncomfortable,washing machine not working driers not working. Garbage room gross . Cost unbelievable for what it is . Pool dirty ,spa with no spa. Gym was tiny and dirty
- Natalie (10/5): Everything we wanted - Great location, great shower. Massively comfortable bed. Lots of clothing storage & seemed to have all we needed to cook with. Nothing
- Mary (7/5): Good -
- Louise (10/5): Over excellent - Great communication from owner Nothing to report
- Steve (9/5): Great apartment in great location. - Great little apartment. Everything you need for a stay in the heart of Manly. Fab location. Nothing
- Susan (8/5): Nice apartment, clean, well located. - The location was great. Quiet area. The info re how to find the locked box wasn’t clear.
They need to say it is in a cupboard in an alcove next to the main entrance.
- Julienne (10/5): Great location great accommodation we hope to return. -
- Dorthe (7/5): Good - Placement & we have all the thing we needed in the apartment Rearly hight Tekno music from Conditn Training, from early morgning. Saturday from about 7 in the morning.
- Robert (10/5): Perfectly situated in the heart of Manly - We only stayed one night but wish we’d booked for longer. Really well stocked apartment with loads of toiletries, coffee tea etc. The free parking is a major bonus if you’re arriving by car. We looked at loads of places and they were all charging upwards of 25-45 Aussie dollars. Lucie is a great host and keeps you up to speed with friendly texts.
Check in and out was easy with clear instruction
We checked out early but weren’t flying until later and Lucie said we could leave the car in the parking garage at no extra cost, saving us around 50 dollars which was the charge for 5 hours parking in the local car park.
The apartment is ideally situated in the centre of Manly with loads of shops, bars and restaurants within minutes of the front door. I highly recommend this place and when we get over to Manly again we’d deffo stay there. Nothing.
- Davina (8/5): Met expectations - Pull out bed was very hard

- Samantha (10/5): comfortable and enjoyable stay. - Location is amazing. Walking distance to beach and all activities in Manly.

- Ken (9/5): Location was great for beach and ferries to the city. - We supplied our own breakfast. Location was the best. All great. Entrance to car park is a little confusing. But we worked it out information supplied.
- Andrew (9/5): The Apartment exceeded our expectations. Perfect location. Very clean and well appointed. - Great quiet location just off the Corso. Close to all local amenities. The bed was so comfortable. Rooftop pool was a good bonus and also there is the Beach 2 minutes walk away as well. What a fantastic location.

- Janet (10/5): Great place, ideal location, comfy beds - Loved how close it was to everything we needed, it was enough for our needs, we didnt need to get much in, parking was great and hosts on hand when needed Lights from across the street..( car park).
- Sheehan (8/5): Handy apartment with parking amazing - Comfortable Nothing all good
- Adelle (8/5): Excellent apartment. Very central, and would stay again. - We went out to breakfast on the beach front. Easy location to source cafes for both breakfast and dinner. When advertising the parking option, please state the height clearance of the carpark. We happened to ask after the booking was made, and then realised that our car wouldn't fit in terms of height. We ended up parking on the street, and then moved the car before breakfast to buy us more time. It would be good to know when actually booking what the height clearance is.
- Hazel (7/5): Good -
- Danielle (9/5): Superb - Great location, facilities and the staff were wonderful.
- Kenneth (8/5): Excellent location, great unit. - Location was good and very close to public transport. The unit was very comfortable and the consumables were generous.
- Steve (7/5): Good - Location Bed could of been better
- Carly (9/5): Clean and tidy, would stay again. - It was very easy to find the apartment as well as the key/lock box idea was very straightforward. The location of the apartment was a perfect fit for what we were after. The apartment was clean and tidy. The remote for the aircon didn't seem to work, however this was probably just an issue with the batteries and did not significantly affect our opinion of the property. The wifi was a little slow to load Netflix but again this did not affect our stay very much at all.

- Kevin (10/5): Lovely stay . everything wonderful - really well laid out and comfortable . appreciated milk and other items being left for us
- Sal (5/5): nice appartment and location, just smelly corridor due to building management inaction - Faculties and appartments was very good. great location and access to Manly Beach and Corso There was a very bad smell in the corridor due to dirty water flooding from laundry. not enough done by building management to address the issue. ie no wet vacuum of carpets, no carpet cleaning and deodorisation. Very disappointing.
- Cheray (7/5): comfy & cozy for one night -great shopping area but - kitchen well organized tourist book -no special coffee machine - close to the beach & all amenities parking wasn’t that accessible and closer parking lots were very expensive
- Megan (9/5): Superb - The hosts were prompt with their communication and their instructions of where to locate the key easy. The location is perfect with all Manly has to offer on your doorstep. The room had all the luxuries of home which made it all very accomodating. Thank you Lucie and Jerry. The bed mattress unfortunately wasn’t comfortable so I’d suggest an update.
- Alessandra (8/5): great location and comfortable stay with good communication from owner - Location was great, good that it had parking. liked the pool. parking spot was very small for an SUV, blanket was very thin to be warm enough and the lights across the street from the car park crept through the blinds keeping me up,
