Fantastic quiet spot to explore Manly from

This was the most wonderful little spot to explore from, with breathtaking views over little manly and Sydney behind and 30 seconds from a quick morning dip! The apartment is clean and bright with good aircon in the main living space and bedroom fans in all the main rooms. All in all a great spot and well worth a look!

Excellent apartment in the perfect spot

The property is spacious, well furnished and very well-equipped. A huge wraparound terrace has comfortable and attractive outdoor seating and dining areas. A parasol or awning might be helpful as it’s in sunshine for most of the day. Toni was very helpful when there was a little glitch with the access arrangements, and resolved it in minutes . The building is very secure and there are two parking spots in a gated area. The area is very quiet and residential, but only minutes from a mini-market and a short stroll to the lively shops and restaurants of Manly, and the ferry terminal. Beware, however, the return is all uphill!
