This our third stay at Carinya - we love the history of the sunny terrace and the suburb as well as the great location. The beds are comfortable, there's lots of hot water and the view from the balcony is amazing. Within short walking distance there are three heritage listed pubs, great cafes on on the wharf, incredible views from the Observatory and lovely walks around the Barangaroo headland and the Rocks and harbour. Theatres and restaurants are close by. There's a very good and well-stocked local produce market at the community centre on Monday evenings. Cathy and Ween are excellent hosts - they respond very quickly and try to accommodate all needs and requests if at all possible. We'll be back.
