Given that yes, we had arrived less than an hour prior to check-in time, we were greeted with unpleasant staff that seemed to find it a nuisance to receive business from a couple that had pre-paid for a 4 night stay during summer. We politely asked if there were any private parking available seeing as we had overlooked this option... More

You can't beat the proximatey of this accomodation, right in the heart of Manly. We stayed in room 219 which was right near the lift, although we didn't seem to hear much from the other guests coming and going. The room was clean and a decent size although the air conditioner was rather useless and I certainly wouldnt want to... More

Rooms were not clean, very old & dated and with no maintenance! Expensive for what you got. And unfortunately was asked to pre-pay before arriving! After 2 nights of no sleep due to dripping air conditioning unit and paper thin walls, asked to be moved or refunded. Rude staff that basically couldn't see what the problem was! Moved to better...

We had a one bedroom apartment for 8 nights. We were really happy with the apartment. It was a large roomy one bedroom apartment - very clean and well stocked. The position in Manly is perfect and close to everything. The staff were extremely helpful and pleasant to deal with. We certainly did not find the apartment noisy - quite... More

Great location for Manly - walking distance form the ferry and the beach. Apartment was as expected - very spacy 2 double beds with balcony - large bathroom with jacuzzi. Resort manager also arranged for me to have an early Sunday morning check-in which suited flying all the way from london. Room was spotlesly clean with a well appointed kitchen.... More

We stayed in a deluxe studio at Waterside Apartments for 8 days. Our apartment on the 4th floor was clean, comfortable, and well equipped. The location was excellent, being close to ferry and buses. There are plenty of cafes, bars and pubs a short walk away. Interesting shopping at The Corso, the beach is one block away. In the complex... More

My family travels quite often and usually stay in one of the large chain hotels where the standards are consistent. We had to go to Manly for a family wedding and when researching the hotels for the particular weekend we needed the prices were very high (much higher than the city) and the TA reviews for these properites weren't particularly...

We rented our apartment for a 2-week stay while visiting family in Manly. It was conveniently located within a 3 minute walk of the Corso pedestrian mall and 5 minutes away from the beach and the Sydney harbor ferry wharf. The 1-bedroom apartment was clean, spacious and full equipped for an extended stay. In fact, the kitchen had two refrigerators.... More

We are a professional couple moving to Manly. We decided to rent a studio short term for 2 months whilst looking for a long term lease. Staying at these apartments was the worst decision we made. Staying for the 2 months of August and September meant that we received a rate of $420 per week. For a reason unknown to... More

Stayed here when visiting family in Queenscliff. The apartments are situated in the centre of Manly about 3 mins walk from the Corso and Manly Wharf so ideal for catching the ferry to Sydney. The apartment we had was on the 3rd floor, was well equipped and had effective heating, which, as we were there during the wettest July in... More
