We booked an ocean view apartment with Manly Seaside without consulting Tripadvisor. It is the most expansive in all Manly Seaside's listings, so we assumed we'd have a memorable holiday. Memorable, it truly turned out to be. From the moment we walked into the building, very worn out building, oldest lift I've seen, narrow hallway. Then we opened the door... More

The apartment management is horrible. After Traveling a lot internationally and domestically, my friends and I have never seen such rude and terrible customer service. We booked in two nights in unit 10 oasis apartment, which is a two bedroom with locked up garage. We arrived at 2:30pm, noticing our garage had been taken by another car. We called the... More

Stayed at Apt 1, 46 Victoria Parade, Manly (Santa Fe) on 21 -22 March 2012 and immediately knew on arrival that I had arrived in a hell-hole - there was an auction board attached to the property. My attempt to be optimistic was shattered when I approached the door to the flat and was appalled at the general lack of... More

For just $20 more per night, my colleagues found a beach front, secure highrise apartment with all new furnishings, while we had an old apartment with shabby furniture and a musty smell. It was very disappointing and my allergy flared up during the stay. When we arrived there were no free parking spot as someone else had decided to park... More

The apartment smells musty and damp. In need of a complete re furbishment. We travelled from England expecting to be staying in a nice appartment for our two weeks and was faced with a dirty disgusting apartment (nothing like the pictures on the website) We won't be using them again. More

Fantastic location overlooking Manly beach, but that's about the only thing I would say was great about it. The apartment had ants crawling all over the kitchen counters, the carpet and the walls. The balcony door was jammed and it took two people just to close it. And the thing that would have literally ruined my weekend had I not... More

We stayed for 3 nights with overseas visitors in this apartment. First the positive: it's a great location - but that's where it ends. - bed linen stained - all windows are dirty (we do understand the issue with seaspray but guys, inside as well?!? - carpets are dirty - we could not use the sofas without putting blankets over...

Never, ever have I met with such an appallingly rude woman in this industry. I wanted to throw the keys back on the counter and walk out - and that was before I even saw the shabby, filthy apartment she called an 'upgrade'. I wish I had checked trip advisor before booking. No wonder she called tripadvisor 'a bogus website'... More

They say you get what you pay for, but in our case even that would have been enough. The Manly Seaside Apartments are made up of various buildings around Manly, and we chose the Santa Fe because of its location to where we needed to be most of the weekend for a wedding. Instead, upon arrival we were told that... More
