A touch of seaside glamour
Synonymous with the Australian beachside lifestyle, Bondi Beach is a glamorous haven where bronzed surfers grace rolling waves and the who’s who of Sydney society rendezvous over sundowners at Icebergs.
Make like the elite and choose a base that encapsulates beachside living at its best. Ravesi’s is a chic boutique hotel made up of 12 individually appointed rooms, a restaurant, and collection of sleek bars. The deluxe beachfront split-level suite rewards guests with million-dollar water views. Alternatively, Bondi Beach Eco Garden Bed & Breakfast enjoys a slightly more down-to-earth ambience, but will still spoil you with its perfect location, graceful interiors and ultra-plush bedding.
Self-contained stays
Bondi Beach is home to a gamut of experiences so longer stays are certainly encouraged. There’s no shortage of self-catering accommodation options in the area whether your budget is tight or you’re willing to splash out. Hit the Bondi to Bronte walk and return to a unit where you can spread out, relax and feel at home.
Adina Apartment Hotel is well located on bustling Hall Street. The hotel’s self-contained studios and apartments feature contemporary design, as well as private balconies, and onsite you can also find a gym, spa and pool. The Sandridge Apartments are another great option. Coastal decor harmoniously combines with polished timber floors and an outdoor terrace to create the perfect beachside getaway.
Budget-conscious backpackers
The pristine shores of Bondi Beach are certainly no secret. On any given summer weekend, 40,000 visitors descend on the one-kilometre stretch to soak up the rays and make a splash in the waves. So popular is this Sydney beach that backpackers and holidaymakers alike will have plenty of budget-friendly accommodation options to choose between.
Bondi Beachouse YHA Hostel offers leisure gear for hire, a games room, communal kitchen and fabulous views of Tamarama Beach from its rooftop, while Lamrock Lodge is an affordable option just 100 metres from the beach. Unlike other hostels in the area, Lamrock Lodge’s range from single ensuite rooms to just four-person dormitories for a more peaceful, relaxed environment.
