This was a cracking apartment. It was better than expected. The location was fantastic - opposite the beach and right next to cafes, restaurants, shops etc. We thought the apartment would be noisy on Saturday night (as above restaurants) but it wasn't. We are a family of 4, with 2 young kids. They loved it and it was perfect for us - things like beach towels provided, games provided, a dishwasher and clothes washer meant a great deal. Being negative, it was a bit "worn" but this is really being picky. It also didn't have a car spot. This was no problem for us. We simply parked up the hill (near the old Manly Hospital) and left our car there for 5 days. It was nice not using our car and we didn't need it, nor did we miss it. We got into the Manly lifestyle, walking with the kids every morning. So good! We would go back to this apartment in a heartbeat. We actually tried to re-book this place for a week in December but unfortunately it is booked out. Our kids cried when we left this morning!
