    We loved everything about Ryokan-Umi, location to interior to amenities and the hosts Chi and Dan. They went out of their way to make sure we had a great time. Highly recommend it and it’s just across from the ocean and restaurants and shops....

    We had an amazing time at this beautiful property, it had the most gorgeous view and decor and was a stone's throw from Manly Wharf/Corso/Beach. We sincerely appreciate the attention detail to everything. It was absolutely lovely. Thank you Chi...

    Very comfy bed! Super quiet despite being in central Manly. We loved everything, especially - walking distance to lovely Delwood beach, the Dyson fans in each bedroom and the awesome view.

Chi & Dan
The Ryokan -Umi is a Japanese word of Ocean. This space is designed as a wabi-sabi style Japanese apartment. It is a botique and unique living style by the sea. The high floor position overlooking the Sydney harbour is a surreal experience. The fluid like interior architectural space extents the beauty of the ocean and embraces the guests upon arrival. If you wish to utilise the second bedroom. Please book the apartment for 4 guests. The small price difference is for the cleaning and dry cleaning fee.
We are both interior designers who love to share our interpretation of modern living with our clients and guets. We love to travel and learn from places we have been. From our interior design, you can experience the philosophy of ancient Kyoto to the modernity of Amsterdam. If you wish to utilise the second bedroom. Please book the apartment for 4 guests. The small price difference is for the cleaning and dry cleaning fee.
The Umi is situated inside the residential side of Manly. It is right next to the world famous Manly Cove. 4 minutes walk from Manly Wharf and 5 miniutes away from Manly Corso where all the cafes and restaurants are. You have the luxury of enjoying the calm side of Manly but not too far away from the fun side of Manly. If you wish to utilise the second bedroom. Please book the apartment for 4 guests. The small price difference is for the cleaning and dry cleaning fee.
