Relax on a weekend away at one of Sydney's most iconic beaches
My first impressions of Manly, in Sydney’s north, as I arrive at my hotel home for the weekend is that it’s buzzy and vibrant. The beach atmosphere immediately transports me from workaday Sydney to holiday mode in a flash.
Shown around the iconic Manly Pacific after the hotel’s 30 million upgrade, I’m transported again. It isn’t just a luxe hotel in a nice location that exists separately from the real community around it. It’s a wellness space and your room key gets you exclusive discounts at businesses all over Manly. Embracing everything from surf schools to beauty bars and cafes, a weekend here is a true reset experience.
