Bower st Ocean View Retreat

Across the headland from Manly's ocean beach, Bower St Ocean View Retreat occupies a residential apartment at 108 Bower Street, placing guests within a ten-minute walk of the Corso and the Manly ferry wharf.

The Manly to Circular Quay ferry remains one of Sydney's most scenic commutes — thirty minutes on the water past the Heads and into the harbour. Bower Street itself sits in a quiet pocket between Manly's surf side and the calmer harbour beaches of Addison Road and Stuart Street.

With a single review and a perfect score, the property suits travellers seeking a low-key residential stay over a serviced hotel experience. Shelly Beach, the only protected marine reserve near Manly, is a short walk south.
