The McMahons Point market
Why harbourside apartments here rent so well
Views sell. Guests will pay a premium to wake up to the bridge and the Opera House.
Holiday & view-seekers
Couples and international visitors book for the harbour outlook, and listings with bridge views photograph beautifully.
New Year's Eve & events
Blues Point Reserve and the foreshore are prime fireworks spots, so New Year's Eve, Vivid and harbour events bring the year's highest rates.
Corporate stays
North Sydney's offices are a short walk away and the ferry crosses to Circular Quay in minutes.
What owners should know

Homes here are mostly harbour-view apartments and terraces on quiet streets. Neighbours notice everything, especially on big event nights, so guest screening and house rules matter.

- 24/7 support with local security dispatch if there's ever a noise issue

McMahons Point FAQs
Questions McMahons Point owners ask
Do you manage Airbnbs in McMahons Point and Lavender Bay?
Yes. PlaceHosts manages short-stay, medium-term and long-term rentals in McMahons Point and Lavender Bay (NSW 2060) from our Sydney office.
Is McMahons Point good for short-term rentals?
Yes. Harbour Bridge and Opera House views, the ferry and Luna Park attract holiday guests, and New Year's Eve and harbour events bring premium rates.
Does the 180-night cap apply in McMahons Point?
Yes. McMahons Point is in Greater Sydney, so a non-hosted short-term rental can be let for up to 180 nights a year. Stays of 21 consecutive nights or more don't count towards the cap, so we combine short stays with corporate and medical stays to keep the property earning all year.
Can I Airbnb my apartment for New Year's Eve?
Usually, if your building's by-laws and NSW registration allow short-term rental. We price event nights carefully and screen guests more strictly to protect your building relationships.
