Our family of 6 enjoyed a beautiful stay at The Oriana in March. The apartment couldn't be better located, with beautiful views over the water and easy access to all the cafes along Balmoral promenade. Helen was a gracious hostess, greeting us on arrival to show us the apartment and checking in to ensure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. The apartment is very clean and tidy and well stocked with all the essentials. We would eagerly book The Oriana again!
Thank you for the pleasure of staying in this absolutely stunning accommodation. Beautifully superb!! We had a wonderful time.
A beautiful apartment in an awesome position. Thank you
Stunning week here at our home town of Balmoral. Perfect rental which suited all our needs. Would love to return next year . Will miss the ocean and incredible sunrises. All our love
We arrived for a family wedding at Bathers, Balmoral Beach and could not have picked a better spot or location. It was lovely to hear the waves crashing on the beach, day and night, creating a very tranquil, relaxing atmosphere. We are sure to revisit! Thank you!
What a magical part of the world We have absolutely loved waking up to the beautiful sunrise, swimming in the sea and watching the moon to finish the day. Helen and David are great hosts and we thank you for sharing your home. You have spoiled us on our first visit to Australia and hopefully we will return in the future
If it were possible to give a sixth star, I would. The Oriana is my favourite home away from home in Sydney. The views are astonishing, the house is well appointed (we brought both kids and work with us), and the hosts are the nicest people you'll ever meet. I love it, my partner loves it, and our kids love it. The best endorsement you can ever give as a customer is your return business, and we've now returned more than half a dozen times. And we plan to keep doing returning for years to come.
We loved this property! Waking up, pouring coffee and literally walking the 45 steps to the beach was like a dream. Sunrises from the sunroom are breath taking. This is a quiet area, but still feels lively with the beach club next door and lots of people walking and running in the morning time. Though we didn’t partake in them, there are some restaurants and coffee shops nearby within walking distance. If going to Manly Beach … the bus on Esplanade to the Taronga zoo is perfect to catch the ferry to Manly. The ferry ride back from Manly will give you UNBELIEVABLE views of the Sydney Harbour bridge and Opera House. The kitchen was fully stocked, even a bottle of wine was in the fridge and some sweet treats were left for us to enjoy. We had an abundance of space for (4) adults and rarely used the living room at all because we spent all our time soaking up the views. Our hosts were wonderful and so kind. We would HIGHLY recommend this property to other guests!
Beautiful location! We loved our time here and hope to return!. Thank you Helen and David for sharing your home and for your kindness.
Great location and vistas. It was ideal for our needs 1/10/23
