This place is a gem. Maria is super friendly and generous with her time and pantry supplies. The water really is that close!! The location spectacular to look at and snorkel or just chill out with a coffee on the walkway. The room is very spacious and the window seat just makes you want to connect with your inner cat. We had an amazing time and can't wait to plan another trip to Sydney.
Jun 27, 2019Maria is a great host made us feel at home straight away. The room is amazing and makes relaxing a breeze.
Jun 27, 2019Maria and her partner Gerry were warm, quiet and friendly. I was made welcome and provided with plenty of directions to find the beautiful space which was shared with me... The bay window photo says it all about the iconic building and the sensational location. For me , real is what I love to experience, and real is what I got... The location and neighbourhood make this a perfect relaxation point... Older style building with charm and character and great food and coffee right under the window and 5 mins oceanside walk into Manly...
Jun 27, 2019First experience in Manly with Maria is really wonderful. The room is so spacious and bright just as displayed in the album. We enjoy the sunrise and breakfast on that colourful balcony very much. Maria and her husband are warm sunshine in chilly windy Sydney. We really appreciate their hospitality and kindness. Looking forward to our next visit to that shiny sea and this cute accommodation.
Jun 27, 2019We loved our stay at Maria's. You could not get any closer to the water and her and her hubby were super friendly and welcoming. We will be back!
Jun 27, 2019Maria's hospitality is amazing and makes her guests feel most welcome. We arrived a little later in the evening, and she had all our needs taken care of. Her apartment is in an amazing location, 10min walk to the centre of Manly, and overlooks the ocean. It was a pleasure to stay with Maria and would like to return to experience the location again.
Jun 27, 2019Very well presented and an amazing position !
Jun 27, 2019Very good - great position and Maria and Jerry were lovely
Jun 27, 2019Maria's and Jerry's place is a real gem!! I've Airbnb-ed a lot in the past months here in Sydney and I must say this place was my absolute favourite of all :) It's a cosy piece of paradise with the most beautiful view, directly above the ocean, super huge bedroom that feels like its own little apartment, incredibly cute decorations, a super comfy huge bed, extremely lovely hosts and a neighbourhood and area that is truly feeling like a millionaires paradise :) Sitting in the pillows at the huge window, or hearing the ocean in bed and having a coffee, ocean breeze or swim right below the apartment felt like the ultimate vacation, I can't recommend it enough!! :) Thank you to both of you for sharing your little paradise :)
Jun 27, 2019Amazing location, snorkelling, surfing & gorgeous shelley beach right on your doorstep. Loved coffee at the boathouse and falling asleep to the sound of the ocean. Maria & Jerry are great hosts,very friendly and helpful. Their apartment is in a worldclass location. Stunning. Felt priviliged to stay there.I had a great time. Thanks guys,will see u all soon! X
Jun 27, 2019La habitación es muy cómoda, y la vista es espectacular! Muy cerca del Corso de Manly, la playa y cafes. Muy buena comunicación con María y con Jerome. Si volviera a Manly seguro alquilaría de nuevo la habitación!
Jun 27, 2019Fantastic room. Fantastic location. Although I never got to meet Maria who was away, Jerry was a fantastic host. A not to be missed room and location.
Jun 27, 2019Maria was off jetsetting when I came to stay ( half her luck ! ), but ensured that I was in good hands with the charming Jerome - well, he's French, so charming of course ; ) It's difficult to think of a more stunning spot in Sydney than this iconic building, above the cafe along the Shelley Beach board walk - tranquility itself, no matter the weather. Thank you so much guys - I'll certainly stay again.
Jun 27, 2019Amazing stay!
Jun 27, 2019Wow, what a view for such a great price. It was like being in the ocean. Amazing room so very comfortable and the hosts were super duper hosts, never there but always checking in. Loved my stay.. it was a special time. Thank you
Jun 27, 2019Maria and Jerome's place was absolutely fantastic... the location was perfect for our long weekend trip away. Close to fabulous cafes, restaurants and the most beautiful beaches. The window seat is to die for... the activity outside in the water of swimming, surf skis and divers is very cool to watch before starting the day's activities. I didn't get to meet Maria but her commutation and friendliness was amazing, she gave us tips of where to go, where to eat and things to do. We met Jerome half way through our stay and he was so lovely and made us feel very welcome. Would absolutely recommend... I want to go back already!
Jun 27, 2019Maria and Jerome are such lovely hosts. They really know how to give you your privacy for your holiday (which I very much appreciate), but they are always there when you need them via text/call/Airbnb message, which is greatly assuring. They have awesome recommendations on local places (including places with local deals) and the room does not let your expectations down. The view is absolutely amazing, no matter the weather. The room and amenities are very clean, with extra towels and sheets in the cupboard, should you need them. I was worried about heating since it's winter and the listing didn't have heating ticked, but they provided a thermostat heater that kept us nice and cosy. Another cute thing to note was the deco. There's an adorable kiwi bird toy and some binoculars that we took advantage of with the great view from the window. Also, go up to the terrace! You definitely won't be disappointed at Maria's :)
Jun 27, 2019Thank you so much for sharing your awesome accommodation, "a piece of heaven on earth " ! Hope to come back one day...
Jun 27, 2019Magnifique endroit et vue de la chambre ! Accueil très chaleureux ! Tout était parfait ! N'hésitez pas !
Jun 27, 2019Perfect location at Manly with a stunning view. An easy stroll to Manly and the wharf with breathtaking views along the way. Maria and Jerry were charming and friendly and willing to share their knowledge of the local area. So much to see on the beach side of Sydney and away from the crowds of the city. Highly recommend.
Jun 27, 2019The sweetest hosts in THE best location in Sydney. My second visit was ever bit as good as the first. I'll definitely be back for a third...
Jun 27, 2019Maria's place is just as it is described. The most beautiful place to wake up in Manly. Maria and Jerry are very friendly hosts. It was a bit wierd for me sharing a kitchen and bathroom with them but everything is clean and tidy so it really is a nice place to stay.
Jun 27, 2019comforting place I was very happy to find this place. Wave sound · Beautiful blue sea · Sea and starry sky · Delicious restaurant · Wonderful spectacular walking course.And even a wonderful host! Husband feels (Website hidden by Airbnb) wife was a bright, smart, always positive, active and spiritual person.I stayed at this house, what should I do now? I got comfort and courage. I highly recommend it. Once I went there, it was a place I wanted to go again.
Jun 27, 2019Top spot
Jun 27, 2019Great location, best view. Friendly hosts.
Jun 27, 2019No place in Manly is better than this. Such a lovely space, beautiful hosts, easy communication. Perfect location for swimming. Convenient distance to groceries and all the restaurants. Minutes from the Ferry. Best location, best hosts. Privacy is respected. I hope to come back again.
Jun 27, 2019María and Jerome where the greatest anfitrions we could have hoped for. The room Is just as seen in the pictures, very spacious and an incredible view.
Jun 27, 2019Great! Such a lovely location, with the most amazing view out of the window. Try and be up for sunrise, it's a special time of day, the locals are in the sea before the sun even comes up! You can't help but feel relaxed watching the ocean and wandering along the walking track. There's also loads of good places to eat! You're only a 15 minute walk to Manly Wharf, then half hour straight into Circular Quay on the ferry. The commuters obviously take it for granted, but it's such an amazing ferry ride! Last but not least, Maria and Jerome are both lovely and very hospitable. Loved it!
Jun 27, 2019Maria & Jerry were great hosts & very welcoming. The room was clean & had a beautiful view of the ocean. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for scenic views or looking to be close to the sensational beaches of manly.
Jun 27, 2019Maria and Terry, are the most amazing hosts I've ever had!!They made me feel like a friend more than just a guest... The room is more awesome than how it looks in the photos. The decorations are flawless, the bed is very comfortable and the cleanliness is impeccable!!! The location can't be more perfect, right in the middle of the 2 best beach spots in Manly and literally in front of the ocean. I still can't believe how lucky I was to be able to stay there.
Jun 27, 2019Great place to stay, very close to beautiful beach and snorkeling spot. Wonderful host.
Jun 27, 2019As my first airbnb experience in Sydney, Maria's place has reached all expectations & set the level (top rated) for my future bookings. I've only airbnb'ed overseas. Not only was the room palatial but comfortable with excellent views to boot plus the beach right at their doorstep. It was very central to everything I needed. I hope her room will be available with my next trip to Manly. They are excellent hosts, passionate about their area in Manly, great communicator, making sure my stay was hassle free. Thanks again Maria & Jerry.
Jun 27, 2019L'endroit est tout simplement extraordinaire, quant à la vue depuis la chambre et bien c'est magique. C'est idéal pour sortir de son quotidien. Maria est très sympathique , bref j'adore et j'aurais aimé rester plus de temps.
Jun 27, 2019Great spot, clean room and an amazing view. Very comfy and Maria and jerry are so welcoming. So easy to checkin and a great central location.
Jun 27, 2019Maria is a very gracious host and her place is fantastic! I️ highly recommend it if you want an idyllic setting with unbeatable view and perfect location at Manly Beach.
Jun 27, 2019Maria and Jerry are incredible hosts - super kind and helpful. And the view from the clean simple beachy room is one of the best in the world! (if you love oceans and beaches and things that are amazing)
Jun 27, 2019It is one of the most beautiful parts of Australia. Not for sleeping in. Get out and enjoy the day.
Jun 27, 2019We had a fabulous time here, enjoying the positively amazing views from the beautiful window seat, sipping wine and munching chips, while enjoying the exciting passing parade of people walking along the promenade. The bed was super comfy, the decorations delightful and appropriate and pretty. There was no problem with sharing amenities with Maria and Jerry, and we would highly recommend their lovely beachside home to all, so don't be shy about the share bathroom and kitchen; it worked out beautifully.
Jun 27, 2019Fantastic place, amazing hosts!! I would highly recommend staying at Maria’s place. Fantastic location with everything at your doorstep. But more importantly Maria and Jerry are brilliant hosts. Was a pleasure dealing with them and they made everything as easy as possible.
Jun 27, 2019Maria and Jerome's place was exactly what I needed. An amazing location. I went snorkeling every day and it was just a short step out the front door and you're in the water swimming around big fish and little stingrays. It was fantastic. It was also create just to still in the window and watch people pass by as you listen to the sound of the little waves breaking. I can't wait to come back.
Jun 27, 2019Fantastic place! Gorgeous location right on the water over looking the bower! Close walk to town proper and to Shelly beach. Maria was an excellent host, full of info about manly. We thoroughly enjoyed or time there.
Jun 27, 2019Probably the best view in Manly! Great hosts and super friendly couple. Everything else as described and really enjoyed my 5 night stay! Thanks Chris
Jun 27, 2019Supernice host & place to stay, highly recommended!
Jun 27, 2019Beautiful space. Maria is very communicative and helpful. The location is prime!
Jun 27, 2019Fabulous location and view! Spectacular! Clean and tastefully decorated. Maria was easy and quick to communicate with . She has set up everything for an easy enjoyable stay ! Thank you Maria !
Jun 27, 2019Lovely clean and well decorated large room with fantastic view of blue sea.Is situated between two beaches with lovely walk to both. Shared bathroom and kitchen was easily managed with access to fridge and cooker if you wanted to cook.Maria provided excellent and helpful information and is a wealth of local knowledge.Highly recommend this property and host
Jun 27, 2019Perfect view lovely host great location
Jun 27, 2019如果你是海滩男孩儿或者女孩,住在这里是一个明智的选择,房东热情好客非常好,但是由于房子楼下是餐馆卫生不是很理想,在房间内踩死两只虫子,有些家具有点久,在未使用过的床上发现毛发,最重要的是4个人使用一个小的并且不明亮的洗手间和浴室联在一起的不是很方便,并且没有特别的停车位,路边很难停到,很抱歉maria,但是确实从进门为止低过我们的预期,希望稍做改进,接下来会更好｡
Jun 27, 2019An unforgettable location and hospitality that can't be faulted. Thank you!
Jun 27, 2019유쾌한 jerome과 활기찬 maria를 만나보세요. 인생 최고의 바다경치는 보너스입니다. 에어비앤비 최고의 숙소 중에 하나라고 자신합니다. 최고의 경치, 편안하고 아름다운 숙소, 바다를 좋아한다면 주저하지 말고 선택하세요. 숙소에서 세발자국만 뛰면 시드니 최고의 스노클링 포인트가 당신을 맞이 할겁니다.
Jun 27, 2019Great room in a cool flat with top views over the bay. Maria and her husband were more than hospitable hosts - can only recommend to anyone in the area
Jun 27, 2019Great view and close to the water
