Beachfront vacation rentals in Obelisk Beach

We stayed over a weekend with our two children and some friends. It was torrentially raining for the first 24 hours which was bad luck and made the journey a bit trickier with cancelled ferries but we made it and the sun came out for us and we had a lovely weekend in the incredible surroundings of Mackerel Beach. It’s such a peaceful and magical spot. Relatively close to Sydney but it feels like you’re so far away when you wake up there. Claudia and Richard gave us detailed and clear instructions which made the logistics so much easier. The kids loved the cricket kit and beach equipment. We all appreciated the kitchen set up as we all like to cook. Eating out on the deck was really special. Will definitely be back to Mackerel beach.

Amazing location in Sydney. Beautiful neighborhood and natural surroundings. Beds were comfortable.

My family had a wonderful holiday in this great apartment. The accommodation was clean and very comfortable, and so close to all the amazing things that Mona Vale beach and surroundings has to offer. Thank you Julia and Wilma for being such lovely hosts, we hope to see you again.

Beaut view, lovely spot and cute unit. Bath window was broken so doesn’t have the view out. Danny was a lovely host and very accomodating.

Couldn't have wished for a better location, walking distance to the beach and shops. Stunning house, exactly how it had been portrayed and Samantha and Rich were very helpful and accommodating. I'd have no hesitation in returning if it was available.

A wonderful place to enjoy a week in Coogee. We loved having the beach and main street with shops and restaurants just a few minutes away, as well as bus stops to explore the rest of Sydney. The house feels like a home and had everything we needed. Sophie is lovely and was very easy to communicate with during our stay. Highly recommend staying here!

Great stay in Sydney suburbs. Air bnb was exactly as described, situated in a nice family friendly neighborhood outside of Sydney. Felt very safe with nice amenities right outside of the apartment. Beautiful beach and playground with a restaurant within walking distance. Host Rami was very friendly and available to help with any issues and very accommodating. Overall great stay. Only thing to improve on was lack of some supplies in the apartment, no coffee, dishwashing soap and running low on laundry detergent.. a must when traveling long distances! But overall great and would stay again, thank you Rami!

Great place, great location, amazing host. Thank you Susan for a wonderful experience

Peaceful, perfect location for everything Everything we needed Thank you Nice for parking and easy check in and out . Clean

Beautiful cosy spot to chill in. Had a great time

Great stay, would totally recommend to anyone thinking of booking here. So close to everything, private, with a great balcony view. All the kitchen amenities you would need. Comfortable bed & bathroom has all you need.

Tommy was a great host. Very easy instructions to get into the apartment and gave us a late check out upon request. Lovely stay in Sydney and nice and close to everything.

Great location just off the Corso, super accessible to Manly beach and the ferry to Circular Quay. Kirsti was a super host, always accessible and responsive and helpful. Would definitely return, enjoyed my stay. Also loved the A/C, needed in view of the late summer weather.

To celebrate my 50th birthday my husband, son and I booked 2 nights in Manly. The apartment overlooking the beach was absolutely perfect and it had everything we needed and the host was polite and responsive. The apartment was beautiful with lovely prints on the wall and very clean. We would 100% love to stay here again in the future. Thank you.

I highly recommend Jeremy’s accommodation. Very neat, bright and clean. I loved the use of space in the kitchen, the pull out pantry and over top cupboard. There is everything you need. Jeremy was very accommodating and easy to communicate with, and his emails were loaded with very clear descriptions. Thank you so much 😊 I would definitely stay again.

Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay in Manly. Christians studio was absolutely perfect. We were sad to leave, but hopefully next year will be back, for longer.

Marea's house is lovely. A short wander from the beach, meaning the breeze through the house is wonderful. Spotted lots of Aussie birds and the occasional possum. The bus stop to the light rail is right at the doorstep. Marea let us check in early and answered all our questions.

Beautiful, well equipped house in a peaceful residential road. The upstairs living space was stunning and the view from the terrace lovely. The showers were great and it was a bonus that the upstairs bathroom had a bath which the baby made good use of. The kitchen was very well stocked, including plenty of condiments as well as herbs and spices. It is walkable to the beach and the Coast Cafe although it’s quite a steep walk on the way back! Just along the road is a great bakery that sells fab coffee and almond croissants that you simply have to try!

fantastic house, very spacious and have a lot of amenities.

I honestly can’t say enough about how phenomenal this experience was. I came off of a 20 hour flight and couldn’t wait to relax, cook dinner, and enjoy being on the water. It was the most beautiful sunset I had ever seen and one of the best night’s sleep of my life. From being picked up at the dock to the adventure of the return trip back to shore, I would recommend this incredible stay to anyone!

An absolute dream of a place - I’ve stayed at Great Mackerel before a few times, and it just keeps getting better and better. The attention to detail that Jamie and Ingrid have put into the place makes you feel right at home. Definitely will come back! The locals are awesome as well!

What a beautiful location, with a stunning view of the ocean and surrounding landscape. We had a very relaxing time and enjoyed the private and cosy apartment. The beach is only a ten minute walk away and is simply beautiful. Frances was very friendly, responsive and made us feel welcome.

Sue was super responsive and the view was fantastic. We'll come again!

Fantastic location, great space and incredible views. The unit was exactly what we wanted, and the pictures are the most realistic we've come across in a stay at AirBnb. Peter and the team are very accomodating and communication was flawless. Will definitely save this for future vacations.
