Guesthouse vacation rentals in Bateau Bay

Had a great stay here! Place had everything we needed and was in a great location

I had a most enjoyable six weeks stay , in comfortable accommodation and pleasant surroundings , within easy walking of beaches and cafes . For anyone wishing to see more of the Northern Beaches this is a good central location , also with good transport options in to the city . I appreciated the privacy of the accommodation , but the hosts were readily available , and willing to help , if needed .

This place is a hidden gem! We were so pleased that we happened to fluke this place as our stay before heading to Newcastle and were so pleased! It was such a quiet, peaceful place to stay. It’s out of the busyness of the city but close enough to everything if you need. Berowra waters is just down the road. We had two young children with us and found we had plenty of room for us all. The beds were SUPER comfortable, beautiful linens and had everything we could need. The host was very kind and helpful! The only downside was we didn’t stay longer. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Look no further! Home away from home! 5 star location (walking distance to spas, market, restaurants, ferry, etc...), 5 star home (super clean, ALL amenities possible, very cozy) and 5 star host who displayed a great deal of flexibility with a 4 year old. Thank you Margaret and I really hope this review will bring you more visitors. You deserve it!

Not only was Tracy’s guesthouse incredible, Tracy herself was the best host I’ve had in three decades and as many continents. There should be a special 6-star rating reserved for hosts like Tracy.

An amazing place that delivers more than is listed on the site, with added extras such as the provision of surf equipment (e.g. boogie boards), thoughtful touches like a cool bag for transporting cold food and drinks, some kitchen basics (cooking oil, fruit juice). The space is large and very well thought-out. The half bathroom on the upper level is nice to have.

Lisa opened her flat to my son and his partner. She was very helpful, open, and genuinely caring. I know they appreciate her immensely, and I could rest assured that they were comfortably enjoying their accommodations on the other side of the world. Thank you so much for your gracious hospitality, Lisa!

Nick's property was amazing, we absolutely loved everything about it. We will definitely be back😊 Thanks Nick.

We had such a wonderful stay at Sam’s place! The house was so beautiful and clean and set up so well! Everything was just perfect and Sam is an amazing host!! Superhost!!!!

Really great place and hosts. The space was a good size, had a fully equipped kitchen with all the essentials and a spacious bathroom and shower. Close to the beach but not too many restaurants close by. Hosts were lovely and answered all questions promptly. Even brought us some spaghetti on a public holiday when restaurants were closed, much appreciated Thanks for a great stay!

We had a wonderful relaxing stay at Alice & Israel's place over the Easter weekend. Their home is clean, spacious & beautifully decorated with lots of homely touches. The outdoor terrace was ideal for catching the morning sun with a coffee & we really enjoyed the nearby coastal walk to Shelly beach. I would highly recommend this place if you are holidaying in the central coast!

Lan and Florian’s place was so peaceful, exactly what we needed after a long flight. Nestled in the trees, with the entire conservation area as your view and backyard, it was a lovely place to relax and bird watch. They were also kind enough to let us meet and pet their chickens!

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful waterfront Airbnb. The place was private, peaceful, and packed with activities—from fishing and kayaking to paddleboarding and even cooking in the outdoor pizza oven (a huge highlight for us!). It was the perfect escape from the Sydney rat race, giving us a chance to slow down, breathe, and enjoy some real quality time together. What really made the experience stand out were the hosts, Ivona and Dean. They were exceptional—warm, attentive, and genuinely committed to making our stay memorable. We left feeling recharged and grateful, and we’re already thinking about our next visit. Highly recommend this place if you’re after nature, relaxation, and a bit of adventure all in one.

The Nest was a beautiful and cosy little place to stay which was perfect for my Easter weekend getaway. It was convenient with the included parking spot, although it is slightly offroad. It was also walking distance to the restuarants in the area by accessing a flight of stairs near by. We recommend Joanne's place!

We had a fabulous stay at this beautifully presented cottage. It was immaculately clean with modern furnishings and bedding. Very well stocked with everything you need. Mary was extremely helpful and friendly. I would recommend this to everyone and look forward to returning.

My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Ella’s place is clean, comfortable, has all the amenities and is in easy walking distance to the beach. The hot tub is an added bonus and we both enjoyed during some cooler weather. Thanks Ella!

Had a great stay at The Tin Shack. Everything is exactly as advertised and house is spotless. I would highly recommend Mark's place.

Jamie and Zoe are very thoughtful and responsive hosts. The place is a lovely getaway, a short walk to the beach and shops but in a quiet location. The house is equipped with everything you need and the outdoor plunge pool is a serene spot to relax. The shower is the best after a day at the beach or enjoying a coastal walk taking in the sights and sounds of the ocean. Highly recommend for a peaceful beach getaway. Wonderful and friendly hosts made the getaway even more enjoyable. Don’t hesitate to book this for your next getaway!

A fantastic place to stay for a few nights or even longer, Paul is such a great host. The home was exceptionally clean, the spa bath was absolutely delightful and his instructions are very very clear! The surroundings?! Beautiful and we felt right at home. I’ve already begun recommending Paul’s stay to all our friends.

Such an absolutely stunning place! We had a beautiful stay here, the place is so well appointed and has everything you could need. The extra touches of wine and breakfast provisions were so lovely.

Some people are weird... I don’t get the few random complaints about this Airbnb. It’s a really nice little place, with absolutely everything provided. Lots of thoughtful touches, well maintained and cleaned, and really tastefully decorated. Just a very cosy and comfy place and well located. You do hear the stomping and pipes from above but we were up early so it wasn’t a problem for us and it’s clear in the description. All in all, a really great place to chill by the beach. Thanks Julia!

Christina made us feel very welcome and the place was very private. peaceful and easy to find. Christina was an excellent host. Easy walk to Ettalong Beach and the amenities were exceptional. Highly recommend.

Michele and Jeff were wonderful hosts. They kindly welcomed us upon check-in and gave us a thorough tour of the property. Their place was very clean and well-equipped with everything we needed. What stood out the most was the stunning lake view and the beautiful sunset from the jetty. We also had a great time using the kayak they provided, and it became a special memory for my wife and me.

We recently stayed at this property and can confidently say it was exactly as described. Communication was a breeze from start to finish, which made the entire experience stress-free. The space was incredibly roomy, spotlessly clean, and clearly well-maintained. The shower, in particular, was amazing—truly a highlight of the stay. Overall, I rate my experience a perfect 10 out of 10. Highly recommended!
