Had a wonderful stay in Sydney. The Bay Retreat was great, beautiful, warm interiors, comfortable beds, ample space, nice amenities. The location was ideal, nice quiet street on Neutral Bay. Quaint restaurant on the corner, along with a small general market and a breakfast spot. And the ferry to Circular Quay was less than a minute walk. So convenient. You can see the bay itself from the living room. Gorgeous. Felt like we were staying in the heart of Sydney without the hustle and bustle feel, yet the bustle was always a short ferry ride away. Hope we get to visit again.

We absolutely loved the property. The location, buildings architecture, cleanliness and quality throughout even surpassed my expectations. Our early morning walks around Cremorne Point, dropping into Piper and Thrupp for coffee was also a highlight. The 12 minute Ferry ride to Circular Quay was was so handy. We'd definitely stay again and highly recommend.
