We wanted to stay in Manly rather than Sydney directly and this was a great place to stay. You need an Opal card unless you like walking a lot but the public transport is fantastic and the bus stop is just outside the house. There is a little cafe across the road and you can reach the nearest restaurants by foot about 1km away. The bed is the coziest ever! And the bungalow is brilliantly equipped to cook and also has lots of nice touches like milk, cola, coffee, tea. So be prepared to get the bus to get around but we thought it was worth it to have a proper home for a few days.
