Apartment was within walking distance to the beach, playground and grocery store. It was well equipped with cooking supplies and everything you need for the beach, including a sun shade!. Hosts were extremely responsive. It was a great apartment for a great holiday. ##### Amy C.

It's cozy (small), but extremely comfortable and very well appointed. The check in/check out process was smooth. The property owner is very kind and accommodating. It was a complete pleasure staying at her apartment. I highly recommend this property. ##### Gina L. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Darren C. 10 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We loved our time at Manly Beach Retreat. Jane and Graham have clearly invested a lot of time and energy into the apartment. It is immaculate, spacious and tastefully decorated. In fact, the pictures really don't do it justice. The apartment is only a short walk to the beach and is situated on a quiet street, with the occasional, welcolme call of some Laughing Kookaburras. Jane and Graham are the perfect hosts: unobtrusive but always available and very accommodating. They clearly care about there guests. This is shown in the detailed info pack they've put together, listing restaurants, things to do and see etc, along with their well-stocked library (included in which are a stack of guide books). Oh and there is a Harris Farms Market only 350m away, which made stocking up on groceries an absolute breeze! AND the inclusion of off-street parking alone makes this a rare find in Manly. Really, we couldn't recommend Manly Beach Retreat enough! ![A view of Cabbage Tree Bay.

Absolutely beautifully decorated and equipped. Really felt like home and a lovely feeling of space. Much closer to the beach and all the usual places in Manly than the map makes out. Really comfy beds and gorgeous bedding xx ##### Miche B. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gary F. 28 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Outstanding Fabulous place to stay Walking distance to everywhere (coffee, parks, beaches etc ).
