Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Paddington

Yiannis's beautiful home has all the comforts for staying in: fresh linen, fluffy towels (it's the little things), usable outdoor spaces, Smart TV, the Risk boardgame (which the kids LOVED). And when you want to venture out, it's an easy 1.5km walk down to Bondi, or you can visit one of the many local restaurants, or grab a very good coffee from Oh Brians cafe just down the road (being from Melbourne we're VERY picky about our coffee 😆). The home was clean and exactly as described in the photos. Yiannis' communication was clear and honest, and he made us feel very welcomed. We hope to visit again in the future. Highly recommended

A really terrific spot for my family to catch up with Sydney family and friends. We all loved being so close to Cooper Park, which was just beautiful in the morning with all its birds. The house is close to the station and to shopping at Bondi Junction. The back yard was great for bbq-ing and had comfortable outdoor sofas. Altogether we were really pleased staying here and had a happy time!

A wonderful stay! Super homey and spotlessly clean, plus just a few minutes walk to a really nice beach!! A great location away from the city bustle of Sydney, but close enough to visit to see the attractions and shop. Linda was very accommodating and communicative. We had a small issue with the fridge (not to the fault of the host) and her and her husband were very attentive, responsive and willing to remedy the situation. Very easy to communicate with and quick to respond. Would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a nice, peaceful beach getaway with some tourist visits to Sydney sprinkled in!

So comfortable & host Yanping so lovely & accommodating I can't recommend highly enough! So well appointed, tastefully decorated making it warm & inviting with beautiful pool & relaxing outdoor area with comfortable seating & BBQ, fantastic kitchen with everything a family/group could need, very comfortable big couch in lounge with free Netflix, full laundry, lovely bedrooms & bathrooms with everything clean & well presented. Very large so plenty of space, full of natural light upstairs & down, & A/C works well keeping the house at a comfortable temperature (also lovely fireplace but didn't need that during summer). The neighbourhood is peaceful as it's very quiet & people are friendly. I chose this airbnb as it allowed dogs & my dog needed open heart surgery at VSOS conveniently located close by, as were shopping centre, restaurants & cafes & the beach. Yanping was so understanding ensuring we had everything we needed & my dog kept quiet so I will be ever grateful thank you so much :)

The property more than met our expectations - immaculate, well provisioned (over and above other properties we have stayed at), better than the pictures and the location was an absolutely perfect for our base for our week long stay, 2 minutes from Bondi Junction and 20 minutes from Bondi Beach. Tina made sure we knew she was there and available if we needed her, we didn't actually but nice to know she was always available.

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.

John was so friendly and helpful from booking throughout our stay. He was always available when we needed him and sorted any problems we had very quickly. He gave us great recommendations about public transport and local coffee shops, beach walks and local attractions. His house and pool were in a great location for us as we were visiting family. John lives in the house and had moved out for our stay, so there were a lot of personal items around his home. The pool was a lovely extra, however it turned out to be hard work! It had to be cleared of debris every day due to the surrounding greenery and while we were told someone would attend the pool at least once a week, we had two visits in 4 weeks only to top up PH decreaser and possibly chlorine? The “donger”/ pool hoover seemed useless and went round in circles most of the time. The pool was grubby by the end of our trip with mould/algae around the steps at the far end and we had no idea how to clean or reverse this. Great holiday!

We had a great time at Liz’s place! It is a really homely house, with plenty of space and all the amenities we needed to stay for a couple of weeks as a family. Our 3 year old loved the pool, trampoline and kids toys! Liz was an exceptional host - flexible with check in and out, quick to answer any questions and generally going above and beyond to make us feel at home.

If you looking for a peaceful and quiet stay, this is the place, didn’t get bothered by anyone or anything, the beach being a walk away was so convenient for a relaxing getaway. Beautiful scenery around. Always able to hear the birds sing and the sound of the rain, definitely what I was looking for, away from the city, but at easy reach.

Great location and beautiful apartment. Checked in in the evening but super easy with codes on doors. Very good communication from hosts. My family had a fantastic time.

By the pictures you can directly see that this is a special place. But what makes it even more special is the hospitality Petrit is offering. He definitely knows how to make you feel welcomed in his home.

Kristine’s Airbnb is in a really great location and beautiful setting that allows guests to experience true Sydney living. We had a really enjoyable and peaceful stay and next time will most definitely consider rebooking for a longer stay! Thank you for sharing your property with us!

nice closeby to everything

Great location close to Darling Harbour. Beautiful views on the short walk and you’re there. Perfect for weekend stays or longer. Great communication and friendly host was very helpful with our needs

We had a fantastic stay. The location is excellent with an easy walk to the beach or a supermarket. It's also an easy 15 minutes to the main shopping area for a busier evening when wanted. There is an excellent dining/living room space which is larger than suggested in the photos. Overall we thoroughly recommend this listing.

Excellent hosts and first class accommodation. Felicia and Murray’s apartment has everything you need and more. Close to Rushcutters Bay and within easy walking distance to many eateries, coffee shops and supermarkets. Convenient for all forms of transport and a lovely walk into the Botanical Gardens. This is our second stay here and will be our first choice on our return.
