A Sanctuary of Peace

This is truly a unique property to experience. So close to the iconic 3 Sisters yet once inside you hear only the sound of birds and silence. It offers so much more than most, with a relaxing, healing vibe that is so rejuvenating. You are encouraged to sit for a while.

Lose yourself in the tranquility of the gardens below. The Meditation Gazebo, or further down in the Aquarius section.

The gardens are a sanctuary to many birds incl ... Crimson Rozellas, Red & Green King Parrots, Yellow breasted Robins, Finches, Cockatoos & Lyrebirds who dig up the garden.

The best!!

Loved the look and the location. I stayed on the sofa bed, so waking up to that view was a highlight each morning. It was also pretty comfy. My mates said both beds were also comfortable, I enjoy walking so I walked to Scenic World, little coffee shop near by, I had every thing I needed and would stay again.

Convenient spot in Katoomba

We enjoyed the place overall. The location and view were great and the space was fine for our family of 4. One suggestion would be to turn the heat on earlier when guests are coming as it got quite nice and toasty in the house, but it took a couple hours where we were cold.

Sterling Manor katoomba

Our stay in Sterling Manor was a world class experience. A very spacious and comfortable apartment with special touches that makes it feel like your home but away. The cosy sun room at the front of the property is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee taking in the panoramic views of the majestic Jamison valley. A walk through the gardens leaves you with a fresh mind to start the day. Five minutes walk to the three sisters n cafes. Dalia our host is most gracious and welcoming leaving us a nice bottle of wine some chockies on our bed and beautiful fresh flowers in our bedroom along with a welcoming post card. We’ve stayed at many properties up here over 30yrs and must say sterling manor rises above most we have stayed at. It is also very affordable compared to others. The view alone talks for itself. Thankyou Dalia for sharing this beautiful part of the world with us. We will be back

Beautiful View / wonderful location

Within walking distance of the Katoomba Falls, Cascades, etc. Not far drive to the Blue Mountains. The sunrise views from the indoor porch were gorgeous. Dalia was pleasant and informative of places to go and things to do in the area. The gardens are fun and beautiful to walk through. Overall a relaxing and great experience.

Beautiful when the weather is good ...

The first day we arrived, it was a beautiful view and close walk to see the Three Sisters. The next day was raining/socked in with fog unable to see the view and extremely limited visibility to see the nearby sights. As it rained, the house smelled mustier. We were asked to remove shoes before coming inside but felt like the kitchen floor was sticky like it needs to be mopped. Due to the weather, we bought a frozen pizza for dinner at the market. The pizza pan I pulled out to use for cooking was greasy & gross. The kitchen overall could probably use a good cleaning. We were also disappointed to have no washcloths available for our use whilst there. When I inquired about this, the response was, "I'm sorry, Laurie, there are no washcloths for your stay." In fact, there was only one hand towel between 2 people and 2 bath towels for our 3-night stay. There are 3 rentals at this property, which makes me think they should be able to afford more towels and especially provide washcloths. I'm sure based on the view and location to many nearby sights it is very acceptable when the weather is good. Take that away and it was less than desirable. We left after the 2nd night since the weather was predicted to continue the same for the remainder of the week.

Terrible communication

Location and property was lovely however the rest of the expensive was not as listed or expected. Clearly states self check-in however when we arrived, the property owner was sunbathing on the terrace waiting for us to arrive. The “private terrace” that’s advertised is actually shared with other occupants so you have absolutely no privacy. The owner demanded more for “another guest” however we had already informed them that was had 3 guests staying, not 2, and we were told that would not be any problem at all, but clearly was a problem that we then had to pay extra money for. Then to top it off, the morning whilst we were sitting outside in pyjamas, the owner let herself into our gated access with a gardener that we had absolutely no idea would be coming. The view was exceptional, however I would not stay again. I think they need better management for the property.
