About the host
Hosted by Jane Woods
Hello from Sydney, Australia!
We’re so excited at the thought of welcoming you to beautiful Manly Beach.
We are delighted to make our apartment available for you in one of Sydney’s most iconic and vibrant beachside neighbourhoods – Manly Beach. It’s a must-visit destination offering the perfect mix of laid-back coastal charm and buzzing holiday energy. Think: world-class surf, beachside cafes, restaurants, a thriving food and wine scene, jazz and music festivals, golf, tennis, scenic hikes, and plenty of local art and culture – including our own Manly Gallery.
One of our favourite parts about Manly is how close it is to the heart of Sydney. Just hop on the fast ferry (15 mins) or take the iconic Manly Ferry (30 mins) across the spectacular harbour and you’ll be greeted by stunning views of the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge as you arrive at Circular Quay. If you’re lucky, you might even spot yacht races, whales or dolphins along the way! Once in the city, you’ll find world-class dining, vibrant street performers, Aboriginal art galleries, boutique shops, and harbour bars with breathtaking skyline views – not to mention the charm of The Rocks, Sydney’s historic precinct and the Sydney Opera House.
After a day of exploring, you can wind down with a glass of wine or a cold beer on the ferry back to Manly, ready to enjoy another evening of beachside dining, live music, and warm ocean breezes.
Manly continues to surprise and delight us, even after all these years. It’s the perfect base for exploring Sydney and beyond, and we’re confident you’ll fall in love with it just as much as we have.
We would love to do anything we can to help you have a great time in Manly.
Warm wishes, Jane & Graham
