Kid-friendly vacation rentals in North Balgowlah

We had an amazing weekend getaway at this pretty house! The property was peaceful, clean, and just as described, with breathtaking views of the river. We spent our time fishing, kayaking, and even got to drive the boat provided, which was such a unique and unforgettable experience. It really made the trip feel special and adventurous. The host was responsive and made everything from check-in to check-out super easy. A perfect spot to relax, explore, and enjoy nature—highly recommended!

Incredible spot. We watched the dolphins leaping from the waves and couldn't have asked for more. We'll be back in whale season! Great setup. Highly recommended. Richard and Beck were great hosts. Really responsive and helpful. Avalon town is a great spot too. Lots of good places to eat and get coffee. minor notes: the path down to the rockpools is a little more advanced than anticipated. We turned back with our three year old. if you're napping kids in the middle of the day the blinds don't block much light coming in.

It was very clean and had everything we needed. We could really feel the host’s thoughtfulness. We would love to stay here again when we visit Sydney.

Our stay was amazing! The place was spotless and exactly like the photos! Francine our stay extremely comfortable. 5 stars through and through!

Thomas’s place was central to Sydney city, but enough in the suburbs that it was quiet and peaceful outside. The bnb is the back of a Mosman property, small but has everything you need. The family has two small children so can be a little noisy of an evening but it really isn’t anything to be worried about, nights are quiet . The bed and couches were comfy and breakfast was provided for you. No extra sink/ washing up liquid to wash kitchen things, which was a little odd. But the bathroom one would be suffice if you were staying more than one night. The bedroom has a heater/ac and is spacious enough for two adults. Overall, the place is exactly what I was looking for, for one night.

What an awesome stay - we loved the house and the location was perfect. Paloma was awesome - really helpful and great communication… Will definitely be back next time we head over to Sydney.👌🏻

The studio is stunning! The garden is beautiful and it’s quite close to the lake! Even though the studio is attached to the house, it still feels 100% private! I was stunned by the food in the freezer that we were free to use if we wanted! That was a very thoughtful! The bed was extremely comfortable. This space has been utilised very well! we would love to rebook in the future!

Lovely place with a beautiful outlook! The space was very relaxing and peaceful whilst being quirky and fun at the same time. Would be a really nice place to unwind for a week

Our stay at Shane's apartment was excellent! Shane was helpful and responsive from the get go and directions/check-in instructions were clear and easy to follow. The apartment was clean, tidy and homey, with all the essential amenities and more. The Parsley Bay area was absolutely stunning, with beautiful views and peaceful surrounds. It is an easy walk to Watson's Bay for seafood or a ferry ride--bus stop right outside the apartment. We really enjoyed our stay, would highly recommend staying here to others and can't wait to return.

Robyn’s apartment was immaculate. Fantastic use of storage throughout including providing plenty of hangers in wardrobe. We loved opening up the balcony windows, watching the surfers and using the binoculars provided to watch the whales. The resident cockatoos were fun too. We would highly recommend Robyn’s place.

Really good place to stay, close to the beach, coffee and restaurants

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!

Robyn’s place was an incredible find! It was roomy enough for our group of 5, got awesome sunlight, and is walkable to all of the best parts of Manly!

I booked this place only for 2 nights just to get a pretty Vivid view and it was absolutely worth it. As others have mentioned, photos don't do the view justice - it's much better in person. I wasn't able to catch a fireworks show but the Vivid light show itself was amazing. As a host, Glenn is very responsive and friendly. He goes above and beyond with lil extras like snacks, toiletries, etc. The unit isn't the most updated (a bit vintage style) but it was very clean, well-maintained, intentionally designed, so it's still a great place overall. The common areas (entrance, hallways, elevator, etc.) are in need of updating but it doesn't interfere with the experience much. I'm not familiar with Sydney enough to know the price value (I paid $185/night USD) but I will say the view was truly beautiful and maybe one of the best from that area near North Sydney.

It’s a wonderful place near Dee Why where our family lives. The surroundings are beautiful, and the location is very peaceful. The apartment is spacious and has everything you need. We will definitely come back again.

Michael was a fantastic host. He went out of his way to help make our stay as easy and comfortable as possible. He was responsive to us at all times and helped us out with our arrival time. The apartment was in a fantastic spot with an easy walk to all the great things Manly has to offer. We hope to be back!

Great place! Amazing views. Perfect set up for a family of 4. Would definitely come back!

Perfect location with a very communicative host . Would definitely recommend and stay again

We had a wonderful stay in Coogee. The apartment was spacious, tidy, and well-appointed. The furniture and mattress were very comfortable, and all the amenities were clean and easy to use. Penny was a fantastic host—very helpful and lovely to meet in person. I’d definitely recommend this place to couples or families with children looking for a relaxed and comfortable stay.

I cannot say enough great things about our stay at Sharon’s one bedroom in the city! First, Sharon was a gem of a host! She was very responsive and sent detailed instructions with pictures for check in, knowing it could be confusing to find. She was also flexible to allow us to drop off bags early, which was a huge help! The apartment was just as described, a comfy space to come back to after big days of exploring! It was very clean and had all we needed for our stay.

What a pleasure it was to stay in this spacious, comfortable and well equipped home. Emily provides everything you need right down to umbrellas. The beautiful views over Whale Beach added a fabulous touch to this perfect airbnb. Emily and David were quick to respond, always helpful, and throughout my 10 day stay ensured that I was comfortable and had everything I needed. I would highly recommend staying here if you are in the Northern Beaches.

This little apartment is in a perfect location to walk all things Double Bay. It is neat, tidy & very very comfortable.

Great compact apartment in Potts Point, in a very central area. Close to shops, cafes, public transport and restaurants. Immaculately clean and comfortable. Everything’s was as displayed in the listing.

Amazing location we stayed last minute for one night in Bondi. Perfect for couple. You couldn’t get closer to the ocean and literally next to Bondi Icebergs. We will def be back.
