From museums and iconic landmarks to beautiful beaches and natural spaces, Sydney has a little something for everyone. Holiday homes can be found near places like the massive Sydney Harbour Bridge, with a lookout point and the iconic BridgeClimb, and the Sydney Opera House, a landmark, skyline-dominating arts centre for opera, theatre and dance. You’ll also enjoy Darling Harbour, a waterfront destination with many of Sydney’s major attractions and prominent events, and The Rocks, a historic district with pubs and markets.
The beaches of Sydney are one of its biggest draws. Holiday homes are available near locales like Bondi Beach, an iconic surf beach with reliable waves and seaside amenities, and Manly Beach, a recreational area and surfing destination with excellent waves and seaside shops. You could visit Shelly Beach, a tranquil beach with colourful marine life for snorkelling and scuba diving, and Wattamolla Beach, a lagoon area and park with a calm, sandy shoreline and shaded picnic areas.
The cuisine in Sydney exhibits the multicultural makeup of New South Wales and features dishes from Vietnam, Japan, Greece, Italy and Thailand, as well as gourmet food and wine trails throughout the state. As Sydney is a harbour city, fresh-caught seafood is found on most menus, particularly snapper and barramundi, though Sydney rock oysters are one of the most sought-after dishes. Fine wines from the Hunter Valley are commonly found in restaurants and perfectly complement the meals. Whatever you’re in the mood for, you can find a range of authentic New South Wales dishes and multicultural fare in restaurants and eateries near your Sydney holiday accommodation.
Sydney is an ideal place for a trip with the kids. Holiday homes can be found near kid-friendly attractions like the Taronga Zoo Sydney, a large zoo with koalas, giraffes, bears and other animals, and the Royal Botanic Gardens, a harbourside haven for city wildlife with a fernery and Jurassic Jungle for kids. Kids will also enjoy the SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium, an aquarium with viewing tunnels, and Featherdale Wildlife Park, an area with mammals, reptiles and birds in naturalistic habitats. The WILD LIFE Sydney Zoo, featuring native animals in walkthrough habitats, is another fun place for kids.
If you’re looking for a romantic retreat, Sydney has a range of locations to enjoy with your significant other. Holiday homes are available near places like Hyde Park, a large city park with significant buildings and statues of famous Australians, and the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia, a cutting-edge Australian and international museum of modern art in a grand art deco building. Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park, a bush area with protected indigenous sites and sandy beaches, and the Chinese Garden of Friendship, a lush ornamental oasis with a teahouse, pavilions, exotic plants, ponds and waterfalls, are also good for couples.
