Superb

We had a lovely stay!

On the waterfront, near Fairy Bower pool, convenient to walk to both Shelly Beach and Manly

People with impaired mobility, small children etc might find access to top units difficult.

Superb

very comfortable but basic accommodation. Reminiscent of old style traditional Greek island rooms.

location.location.location!! that is the key quality of this apartment. Sea view, close to two beaches and with a good beach style cafe next door what can go wrong?

The info. needs to be updated. In particular, make it clear that there is no free wifi at the cafe next door. There is a charge for wifi in the apartment. Who else still does that?

Disappointing

All in all for the money spent I wish I'd chosen somewhere else in the area.

the locaction

I was underwhelmed with the quality and comfort of the beds. the mattress in the main bed was very uncomfortable. the fold out couch was not a fold out couch and not comforable to sleep on. the kitchen was extremely basic and shelf isn't straight. The listing states parking but it's not until afterwards that you've made your non refundable booking that you learn it's 50 dollars a day and it was not easy to access. Also their is no bedding for the fold out bed without another cash charge.

Fantastic location with character- unbeatable views,

We really enjoyed staying at Marine Parade. The location is fantastic, loved the view of the ocean and Shelly Beach and the cute little pool. You can easily walk to restaurants, the wharf, buses, Shelly Beach, and North Head hiking. Great snorkelling. The building looks simple from outside, but inside, it is very clean and cosy, and the bed was great. The shower is good too. The cafe next door is very good, not open very early or in the evening, but most of the day. Stephen was helpful and nice. Thanks very much! I would love to return.

I would have liked to know in advance that I had to pay for internet. The internet worked well though. We did do an awful lot of walking here. I would recommend getting a car if you have trouble walking. There is no sign on the outside of the building- just know it is opposite the Bower cafe, above the kombucha shop.

Very good

Position was fantastic: right on seafront walkway. Easy 10min stroll to Manly centre..Very clean and bright inside. Owners kindly agreed to give us earlier access on day of arrival aspartner unwell.

Window frames old and draughty; security lights on stairs up to apartment needs adjustment as you are over half way up before they come on. Stairs also difficult to climb with heavy luggage.Room has different floor levels so possible trip hazard.

Disappointing

Location. Bed comfy. Easy check in.

Very run down old unloved property. Charging for location and parking $100 for 2 nights on top of cost. Amenities need to be updated and would expect better standers for the cost. Mouldy bathroom and floor flooded after each shower. No space at one side of the bed. Sorry not for us and personally wouldn't recommend.

Very good

Very enjoyable, a nice place to get away from it all, without being too far away from it all.

Room was nice, not overly luxurious, but clean and serviceable. The view was OK, it looked out onto a side street and a cafe opposite, but you could also easily see the sea, the days were a bit 'busy' outside, but not too obtrusive, at night it was lovely and quiet and all you could hear were the waves, and occasional chatter of people walking past. There was no wi-fi when I arrived which I needed for working and keeping in touch with my family back in England, but Stephen kindly put an i phone in the room to use a hotspot, this was very helpful and much appreciated. The appartment was just far enough away from town to be away from it all, but a 10 minute stroll when I wanted to go in to eat or go to the beach.

I was put off by the fish and chip shop underneath, and cafe opposite, but there didn't disturb me at all, and both closed quite early in the evening, around 5pm so were no bother at all overnight. There were problems with the wi-fi when I arrived, but Stephen sorted this out as mentioned above.
