Parkview Stay

Property was just perfect for us. We have our son and his family living in Daintrey Street and were able to spend time with them and when the young ones got too much retreat to this perfect unit. It has fantastic views and everything we like in a unit. We will certainly be looking to spend a lot more time there.

Excellent apartment in a great location with views over Manly Beach and towards the bay. Easy walking distance with our young kids to the beach area, restaurants, wharf, etc. The property was faultless and exactly as described. Toni’s communication was super efficient and very helpful, can highly recommend and will definitely return!

Amazing views, amazing host!

I cannot recommend this property highly enough. It is actually more spacious than I thought from the pictures, and the covered and uncovered parts of the balcony were very cleverly designed and both well used. I loved the idea of not being in the busy main hub of Manly, although you do have to expect a little bit of a climb up that hill. But that's ok - it helped justify the cocktails! Toni is an exceptional host and by far one of the best I've come across. She was friendly, available and very timely with her responses. If I'm ever in Manly again, this is where I'm staying!

About the host

Hosted by Toni Hannaford

Host profile image
We love to travel - even if it's only a couple of hours away during COVID-19. We started hosting people at our own property just over 2 years ago. We've stayed in AirBnbs and Hotels overseas. I enjoy hosting so much, I've made a business of managing other peoples' properties. I enjoy seeing my guests have a wonderful holiday. Cleanliness, comfort and communication are my priority when catering to my guests. I inspect all properties after they've been cleaned to ensure they meet my high standards.

Why they chose this property

This property is on the border of Manly and Fairlight. It’s far enough from the hustle and bustle of central Manly yet only a short 800m walk to The Corso and Beach. It’s a 2 minute walk to Fairlight Village shops where you can grab your morning coffee or breakfast. Here you’ll also find a supermarket, medical centre, cafes, gourmet butcher, chemist, hairdressers, gift shop and several cafes.
