Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Balgowlah

We had a great stay at Jessie's house. The house was perfect especially with young kids - they were happy to find so many books in their bedroom!! It was really clean, very well equipped as well, and Jessie was super responsive. As a now ex-local in the area myself, I can only highly recommend this place. Right in front of the bus stop, close by to a French boulangerie, coffee shops, and beach in Fairlight and Manly both accessible by walk if you don't want to take the bus. Thanks Jessie for making our last stay in Australia peaceful!

Gorgeous studio perfect for my weekend in Sydney. Had everything plus more that I needed and Michael left great instructions and local guide. The place was spotless and very comfortable. Fantastic location close to public transport and was able to find parking close enough.

What a magic place. Absolutely the theme of this spot is leave your car and just walk. Not our first rodeo on the Northern Beaches and this is definitely a prime spot. A beautiful, modern and open space and the outdoor area was perfect.

Loved my week at Amanda’s. The welcome “weekly shop” (fresh basics + juice) was a lovely touch after a long journey. Quiet street, yet a quick walk to Manly Beach, cafés, and the ferry—perfect spot. Home was spotless, comfy beds, sharp kitchen, bright living space. Amanda’s fast replies and local tips sealed the deal. Five stars.

Our stay was amazing! The place was spotless and exactly like the photos! Francine our stay extremely comfortable. 5 stars through and through!

Location was perfect for us as near family. Driveway is rather steep, but the apartment is very suited to a short stay with simple facilities.

Situated in beautiful quiet back street. Long walk down side of house to accommodation under main house. No problem for us but might be a little tough if you are not very ambulant. Fantastic walk down to the water through rainforest like vegetation to the ferry. Amazing. From ferry can get anywhere in the bay area. No kitchen or kitchen sink but they do offer to wash any dishes etc. So no cooking. Lots of food extras. Very happy with stay.

What an awesome stay - we loved the house and the location was perfect. Paloma was awesome - really helpful and great communication… Will definitely be back next time we head over to Sydney.👌🏻

A great place for a long or short term stay. Close to public transport and numerous shops and eating places. Very clean and easy communication, and check in. The place is spacious for a two bedroom unit, cool styling and everything you need including a large bathtub and well appointed kitchen. Location is central if you are driving and on street parking is freely available. If on public transport there are options all close by including Manly and the Sydney CBD. Easy and prompt communication during my stay, and check accessibility.

We loved our stay at Elise’s place . The unit was spacious , clean , close to the beach and restaurants . We took our dog which was amazing as Elise’s place has a private grass area he could run around and play . We will definitely be back

Our family of 5 had a great stay at Sonia's. A fabulous location and all the amenities of your own home. We really appreciated the beach towels. Waking up to the beach across the road was glorious.

Robyn’s apartment was immaculate. Fantastic use of storage throughout including providing plenty of hangers in wardrobe. We loved opening up the balcony windows, watching the surfers and using the binoculars provided to watch the whales. The resident cockatoos were fun too. We would highly recommend Robyn’s place.

Such a beautiful place to stay! The views are amazing! The property looks exactly like the photos. Easy to find, easy to park, Jess and Marcia have fantastic communication if you need anything. I definitely stay again in a heart beat.

This huge one bedroom apartment was very comfortable and very spacious. Massive living area and big bedroom with full sized bathroom plus 2nd toilet and large well appointed kitchen. There are a lot of personal touches that make the stay very comfortable. The views are beautiful and outdoor area is great. This is a very walkable area to Balgowlah and to Manly with a lot of very regular buses into Manly and the city as well as northern beaches. Our dog enjoyed his stay very much and loved the off leash dog park that was 3 mins away.

An excellent location for a stay alone or if you are coming as a couple! Very close proximity to the beaches and short drive to Balmoral baths! I enjoy fishing so being able to go to a location like Balmoral baths for fishing was truly an amazing experience for me! Would love to be back again in the future!

Beautiful, well furnished apartment in quiet, convenient location.

Great place! Amazing views. Perfect set up for a family of 4. Would definitely come back!

It was the first trip abroad for the three of us. It was raining and cold on the day I moved to the accommodation, but I was so grateful that you adjusted the check-in time. I had a good stay in a comfortable accommodation. Thank you.

Strongly recommend for the stay in Sydney, especially if you are beach lover! Location super convenient to the congee and great amenities within short distance. Although we did not get a chance to nice Penny, from the conversation with her, I can feel she is a sincere host and help you along the way even before arrival. Her place is spotlessly clean and comfortable to stay.

I cannot say enough great things about our stay at Sharon’s one bedroom in the city! First, Sharon was a gem of a host! She was very responsive and sent detailed instructions with pictures for check in, knowing it could be confusing to find. She was also flexible to allow us to drop off bags early, which was a huge help! The apartment was just as described, a comfy space to come back to after big days of exploring! It was very clean and had all we needed for our stay.

This stay was amazing. It had all the amenities you needed for a nice weekend away and the kitchen was well equipped for cooking. The host was very kind and responded to messages promptly. Would highly recommend this stay.

Anton is a great host! His apartment is in a brilliant location and has everything you could want for a comfortable stay. I would love to come and stay here again.

Great compact apartment in Potts Point, in a very central area. Close to shops, cafes, public transport and restaurants. Immaculately clean and comfortable. Everything’s was as displayed in the listing.

Amazing location we stayed last minute for one night in Bondi. Perfect for couple. You couldn’t get closer to the ocean and literally next to Bondi Icebergs. We will def be back.
