Meme's Home in Sydney

AlbertRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
The location was easy to find, and was superb for walking around the Rocks, Circular Quay and downtown Sydney. Franco was very responsive in his communication, and very helpful in helping us to find nearby luggage storage before checkin and after checkout. The accommodation was very clean, and the shower was a 10 out of ten! It was a very pleasant place to stay for our party of 3. Albert

Harbour Views, Sunny, and Central 1BR

CatherineRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Ideal location for exploring Sydney. We loved all the shops and excellent bars and restaurants in Potts Point. The view over the harbour is magnificent and the apartment is well appointed and ideal for a couple. The host was excellent and I hope to return again next year.

What a gem! We caught the final nights of Vivid Sydney and the view from the apartment was next-level: Iconic, sparkling, absolutely unforgettable! The unit was spotless, super comfy, and had everything we needed. Great location too, easy walk to cafes, shops, and transport. Huge shoutout to the hosts who were friendly and always responsive, Would book again in a heartbeat.

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!

Kirribilli Kanangra (“beautiful view”)

SueRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Dragana's place was such a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the Harbour views, which were nothing short of stunning! It was clean and had everything we needed including many little extra things that were thoughtful and very much appreciated. It had very homey feeling. Dragana was easily contactable and very friendly. I definitely hope to be able to stay again sometime and would highly recommend Dragana's place.

The View - Uninterrupted Sydney Harbour Bridge

WilliamRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Really enjoyed staying at the house - view of the bridge is spectacular. We went to two shows at the Opera House and hit the Galleries ... we were able to walk everywhere which was great. Suzanna was great giving us lot's of local recommendations from the pub across the road to high end options. She was very communicative and I couldn't have wished for more from a host.

MANLY BEACH HOUSE - 8 min walk to Manly Beach!

AbrarRating, 5 stars1 week ago
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.

Pagoda Point

StevenRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Words cant describe the Pagoda Point house George built, Patrick and Liam (contact on the river) could not of been more helpful in explaining the house and many of its features. We sat around the fireplace all afternoon, then watched the sunset. The house is tucked away overlooking the river with no neighbours near you. It was 10 minutes to the Brooklyn bridge 15 minutes to Berowra Waters ferry. 5 minutes to Petes Bite restaurant. I have travelled around the world and I have never stayed in such a amazing house with the most amazing views.

Waterfront Playground

RececcaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This was the most beautiful place to say - I can’t express how the even though the pictures looked amazing- they didn’t do it justice. We were blown away and that sunset on the water was breathtaking. Felt so homey and we didn’t want to leave. I will be back - just delightful and the host were so kind and accomodating. PLUS SUPER COMFY FURNITURE

This was a magnificent place for a long weekend with a group of friends. The views are spectacular, and the place very private. The house was spotless and very clean.

This Airbnb is a perfect location for seeing Sydney. You can connect to any part of the city from the bus stop adjacent to the rental. The rental itself was great - everything was clean and the rental was well equipped with everything needed for a week's stay.

Waterfront Apartment on a quiet cul-de-sac

ScottRating, 5 stars2 months ago
My wife and I stayed a week, and really enjoyed the stay. The house works well for a couple. We especially enjoyed the open living room, kitchen and dining room. The deck was wonderful too. The area was quiet at night as well. The view is fabulous and is the house's best feature. Even on a rainy day it's still lovely to stay inside, drink some coffee and read (as well as take in that view). We enjoyed walks around the Potts Point neighborhood, and it's a nice walk to the Wooloomooloo Wharf, RBG, the Art Gallery, and the Opera House/Circular Quay. There are a couple of fans, but during the mid-summer months heat might be an issue. During our stay the temperatures were moderate, and just opening the windows to catch the breeze made the house comfortable. The host was first-rate: attentive, friendly, and responsive. Thanks.
