A Blissful Stay

What a blissful stay.... we have thoroughly enjoyed all that Balmoral has to offer. Where in the world could you find a better spot to view the world than The Oriana? Sunrises, Sunsets, all manner of sailing vessels. We loved it all!

The Oriana is the Most Perfect of Stays!

At the end of our wedding anniversary cruise, we needed a home on the beach to meet up with family from Torquay and Melbourne. Oriana is special. It could not have been better located for the beach, zoo and city. The house is wonderful and so relaxing. From the check in process and the friendliness of your host to the Location, Oriana is the most perfect of stays. The place is superb and fully equipped including beach toys for our granddaughters and you literally walk out of the front door onto the beach. The area is wonderful with great beach facilities including a secure open sea bathing area along with great restaurants and only 15 mins from Taronga Zoo by bus and Mosman Wharf for the ferry to the city. The ability to be able to sit on the veranda or in the sun room and watch the world go by whilst keeping an eye on the kids in the water enjoying themselves some 100 feet away was amazing. We cannot say enough about Dr Helen and her family and Oriana - except we will be back. Date of arrival - November 17, 2024

What a wonderful stay!

What a wonderful stay we have had at The Oriana. A truly magical experience - The stunning sunrises, the early swims, walks along The Esplanade. The sun room truly charged me from sitting here watching the world go by. Helen and David thank you for sharing your home with my boys and myself. I have loved every single second! I cannot wait to return and think this will need to be an annual holiday for us. Thank you for the best holiday and stay

Magical!

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

I would give The Oriana 6 stars

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.
