We ended up staying in a 2-bedroom apartment , owned by the same people. So I’m basing my review on that. Just 2 mins up the road. Roxanne kindly offered it to us. The apartment was very nice, light and airy. A lot of light coming through , with a nice balcony. All the amenities were there and worked great. We didn’t cook, but the kitchen looked great. Washing machine and tumble dryer. Location is fantastic. Overall a very good flat.

Perfect stay and very kind owners

We are very satisfied with our stay. The room was comfortable with AC, practical with dishes, microwave and fridge. The shower is unique and impressive! It is very well situated, 2 minutes walk from the beach and on a quiet street. You can definitely walk from the ferry. The owners are so kind, would definitely go back!

Stay Here!

I'm so glad I stayed here. The setting was fantastic, just 1 minute from the beach and a 5 minute walk from the center of everything. The staff were incredibly nice and helpful. When my air conditioner wasn't working they replaced it immediately. Also, the room was fabulous. A outdoor terrace, room inside to cook, a big bed. It was really, really great. So much so I was sad to leave!

Our stay was great, we booked the day we arrived. The accommodation manager ROXANNE was fantastic. She upgraded us as a family to a two room apartment and helped us out with parking. The room was spotless, just a two minute walk to the beach. We will definitely stay there again. Thanks Roxanne, you were amazing.

Pros - location in terms of proximity to beach and a few shops/cafe etc. Studio room thoughtfully decorated in a vintage kitsch way. Clean and tidy. Very comfortable bed. Cons- this place has a motel/hostel feel (and odour) and was not quite what I expected from the way it was advertised. The building is probably circa 1960 and feels old. There was a light from the stairwell shining in to the room all night so it was very bright and the blinds and curtains did little to block out street light. Security is flimsy, the door/s needs a more adequate lock. The pillows need to be replaced as they were old and the bedspread and cushion covers on the bed need proper laundering to remove old odours. The shower head was leaky and kept spraying in my face. Being an old building it was noisy, could hear street activity and neighbours movements, shower etc. This place would suit young travellers who are in Manly for the beach experience and who are not too concerned about their accom.

Great rooms. Finishes are a bit tired but this is compensated by the inclusions- microwave, plates, cutlery, kettle, toaster, iron, fridge, balcony with table and chairs, sofa and comfy bed. Not the ritz but has all you need. Only a block of so from the beach. Plenty of good food nearby. Fast efficient check in.
