Hi I'm your Local Host Usha

Creating exceptional stays is at the heart of what I do. I make sure every guest has a five-star experience from the moment they book to the moment they check out, whether that's a great arrival or a helping hand when you need one.The Northern Beaches have so much to offer, and I love helping guests discover it. For coffee, Silo Espresso in Manly is a favourite, and if you're near Lindfield, Goodfields Eatery is well worth the visit. When it comes to a walk with a view, the Fairfax Track is hard to beat, particularly at sunset after a day at Manly Beach.

My local picks

A few of my favourite spots near the properties.

Eat well on the Northern Beaches

Northern Beaches has plenty of great dining options, and I've put together a list in the house manual based on your location. Some of my top picks include: Pocket Pizza, The Pantry Manly for stunning beachfront views, The Boathouse Balmoral Beach for a relaxed waterside meal, and Bathers Pavilion.

Drinks, coffee, and ice cream

For drinks, 4 Pines Manly is a great spot! For coffee, Silo Espresso in Manly is a favourite — and if you're near Lindfield, Goodfields Eatery is worth the stop. When it's time for a treat, head to Anita's in Manly or Messina at Circular Quay.

Walk the Fairfax Track

My personal favorite is The Fairfax Walk—it offers breathtaking views and a gentle, enjoyable walk suitable for all guests. Watching the sunset from this spot after a day at Manly Beach is truly a perfect way to wrap up the day!

What guests are saying

Book a stay

Usha is an excellent host! She is kind, honest and proactive. I take my hat off to her as it is her own home and it can be hard to give a part of that up to provide an excellent service to somebody else. We made a really homey space there and enjoyed ourselves. Highly recommend.

Ksenia

We've had the pleasure of staying at Usha's place whilst completing home renovations. We've felt right at home and Usha has been an incredible host. I'd highly recommend staying here. It's a beautiful spot, surrounded by nature, yet so close to excellent eastern suburbs shops and amenities.

Bek

I had a wonderful stay at Usha’s place, she even went out of her way to accomodate a slightly early check in which I really appreciated! The instructions for entry and for leaving were really clear and easy. Usha was great at communicating throughout my stay. 5 stars, would love to stay at this studio again!
