Top floor apartment is a YES!
We just stayed on the top floor apartment for the long weekend and we had an absolutely amazing time! The owners are so lovely, helping us with local recommendations and the shared space in the backyard is unmatched beauty (also a large space so none of the guests are in each others face). Loved everything about this stay!! Highly recommend! Also, it’s literally a 1 min walk to the beach, access from the backyard and close to Collaroy beach where the flags are. LOVE LOVE LOVE!! Even the view from our apartment was immaculate!

Highly recommended.
A lovely relaxed short stay in a great location right on the beach and close to South Narrabeen SLS club. The view from this second floor apartment was magnificent and we felt a long way from suburban Sydney…. yet we were only a short drive from home. Very convenient for other family commitments. The feel was of an authentic comfy beach house… clean and pleasant but not too precious. Robert and Dan were very hospitable with helpful information re parking and local attractions. Highly recommended.

Oceanview says it all
We had a great week staying here. The apartment was beautiful and the basket of treats really appreciated. There are some stairs to navigate and low ceilings to be aware of and also parking was at a premium but overall it was worth it. The communication from the Manager was excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Perfect location!
We are a family of five, from Canada and this was our first time to Australia. We chose The Coach House because of its fabulous location, and the photo from the top floor is exactly what we dreamed about waking up to. When we emailed the host with some questions, he arranged a time to call us and gave us so much helpful information. From there everything lived up to our expectations. The condo felt authentic and beachy, the beds were all so comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the gift basket / wine was a real treat. Robert helped us out every time our paths crossed and we definitely appreciated all his suggestions. The location is perfect, we loved the long walks on the beach, the close proximity of the life guard station for swimming, the short drive for groceries, and even getting to Manly/Bondi/Sydney was easy. You won’t be disappointed with this place.

Wonderful view but....
Overall experience is ok. Wonderful view of the ocean in a quiet apartment building. The loft makes it a little difficult for an above avg person as you constantly contact the roof and bathroom will test your back to be hunched over. The apartment requires a little bit of a renovation but still liveable. Location is good with a courtyard on the beach with easy access. Will definitely suggest either a drop in price or update on the property. Enjoyed our stay.

Great Location
We have a great stay at Narrabeen. The property was handy to everything. The backyard overlooking the beach was fabulous and we were lucky enough to see the rare bioluminescence bloom which painted the waves electric blue under a beautiful full hunter moon. The accommodation was comfortable, the view was spectacular.

Great place to relax. Wonderful view of the ocean from the living space and main bedroom. Watched the sunrise every morning. Comfy beds and lounging & dining areas. Also, just a short walk to the lake. The backyard was a good place to relax too - plenty of seating and space. Really felt like a total getaway, without the hassle of a long drive from the city.

Our family of 5 had a great stay here, the views were picture perfect. Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because there was limited parking spots. So awesome to have the beach out the back yard, we couldn't get our 3 boys inside. The accommodation was clean and comfortable.

Enjoyable stay
This apartment has a fabulous view and is convenient to the flags for swimming safely at the beach. The owner was very welcoming. Choice of Narrabeen or Collaroy for restaurants, shops, fuel and supermarkets. Bus stop to city next door. We really enjoyed staying although watch your head in the bathroom and bedrooms. The furniture could be updated - tear in the lounge and under cushions not cleaned out but minor criticisms.

About the host

Hosted by Dan Wiggins

Host profile image
Ocean Apartments are a family-based endeavour, intertwining professionalism, experience, design and modernisation to share the Australian beachside with people from around the world.

Whether you're looking at a summer getaway or some winter whale watching, each self-contained apartment is fitted with full-sized kitchen, laundry services, free WIFI and Netflix. We're here to make your vacation everything you'd wish for, giving you your own piece of paradise for business or pleasure.

Our love of the beach and surfing is one of the drivers for us to share this amazing experience at this property. Incorporating various techniques, processes and operations of hotels, we aim to provide a hotel experience in a homely environment.

Each apartment is decorated with furniture, appliances and features we would need in a home of our own. We aim to give our guests all the luxuries of home and hotel, to allow them to relax from the second they walk into their apartment.

We love hearing from our guests – before, during and after their visits, to ensure their stay is going as planned. We are constantly adjusting our apartments with feedback from guests, allowing us to continually improve your experience every time you stay with us.

Why they chose this property

This block of apartments was built in the late 19th century, and still exudes the charm and history of this era, whilst having been renovated, with all of the sophistication and convenience of the 21st century.

Having an enormous backyard which leads onto the sands of the surf beach is very rare in Sydney, with far less than 100 properties in all of Sydney having this feature. You will immediately feel at home in one of our renovated apartments.

The Coachhouse was one of the first buildings built on the Northern beaches that is still standing. You can imbue yourself with comfortable scenic history. So whether you're looking at a summer getaway or some winter whale watching, each self-contained apartment is fitted with full-sized kitchen, laundry services, free WIFI and Netflix. We're here to make your vacation everything you'd wish for, giving you your own piece of paradise for business or pleasure.

What makes this property unique

Walk straight from the backyard to the ocean, transport at your door, lifeguards next door, shops and restaurants down the road, various parks and lakes to boot - The Coachhouse boasts charm, character and convenience. We are uniquely positioned directly on the beach, providing our guests instant beach access from the expansive back garden. Only a handful of places in Sydney (and New South Wales) have similar access, however most don't have the additional luxury of being situated next to a Surf Lifesaver's Club.

Even if you get tired of the beach, Narrabeen Lake is right down the road (<5 mins), offering a host of things to do solo or with a family. Home to pelicans, swans and cockatoos, all peckish for a feed, it's a great way to keep the family entertained after lunch by the lake or kayaking and biking around the lake.

This property is conveniently located between Narrabeen and Collaroy. An iconic building and property, owning 30 Metres of beachfront, has its backyard continuing onto the patrolled South Narrabeen Beach, only 20 metres south of the Lifesavers Club. Each ground floor unit has its own level, private fenced yard.
