Manly homes you can take for six weeks.
Furnished, bills included, and the agreement runs exactly as long as you need it to.
One week to 24 months is what EzyFlats rents in Manly. Most stays land between one and twelve weeks, which is the part of the year hotels price badly and agents will not let you have.
What counts as a medium-term rental?
Australian renting is built around two extremes. Short-stay platforms are priced by the night and get punishing past about a month. Traditional agencies want twelve months, a rental history and a queue of applicants at a Saturday inspection. Neither fits someone who needs somewhere to live in Manly for six weeks.
Medium-term is the space in between — typically one to twelve weeks, though it stretches from a single week to two full years. The home comes furnished with bills included, the agreement is written and signed digitally, and the term is whatever you actually need.

Medium-term agreements in New South Wales
In New South Wales, a stay under 21 days sits outside the Residential Tenancies Act, so shorter medium-term bookings run as a short-stay agreement with the deposit held by EzyFlats rather than lodged with NSW Fair Trading. Longer stays are documented accordingly.
Staying in Manly
Manly is the headline suburb of Sydney's Northern Beaches, sitting on a narrow peninsula between Sydney Harbour and the Pacific. The defining feature is the ferry: a 17-minute Manly Fast Ferry or 30-minute Manly Ferry from Circular Quay puts CBD commuters on Manly Wharf, with the Corso pedestrian strip linking the harbour to the surf beach in a five-minute walk. The vibe is unmistakably beach-lifestyle — surf schools, hire shops, fish-and-chip terraces, and the long Esplanade walk that runs north to Shelly Beach and south through Fairy Bower. Demographics tilt toward two groups: families with school-age children attracted by the schools and beaches, and professionals in their thirties who have decided Sydney's best life is on this side of the harbour. Housing is mixed: 1960s and 1970s apartment blocks dominate the streets immediately behind the beach, with newer high-density units around the wharf and substantial free-standing homes on the headlands. Walk Score is high — supermarkets, bars, restaurants and the beach are all walkable — but the suburb is geographically isolated from the rest of Sydney. The B-Line bus runs frequently down the Spit and across the bridge to the CBD, but most residents budget on the ferry for commutes and use a car for anywhere not served directly by it. Northern Beaches Hospital sits 10 minutes inland by bus and drives a steady demand for furnished rentals from rotating medical, allied-health and locum staff. Other tenants include hospitality workers serving the constant tourist traffic, surf-industry professionals and corporate transferees who chose lifestyle over commute time.

Medium-term rentals in Manly — common questions
How long is a medium-term rental in Manly?
Medium-term sits between a short stay and a standard residential lease — longer than a holiday booking, shorter than a twelve-month commitment. On EzyFlats in Manly that means anything from one week to 24 months, and most stays run between one and twelve weeks.
How is it different from a short-term rental?
Short-stay platforms price by the night and get expensive past about a month, with cleaning and service fees stacked on top. A medium-term rental is priced weekly, includes bills, furniture and Wi-Fi, and comes with a written agreement rather than a booking confirmation.
Do I need to sign a 12-month lease?
No. That is the point of the category. You commit to the term you actually need in Manly — a week, a season, or up to two years — with no rollover and no lock-in.
What is included?
Every home is fully furnished with bills and Wi-Fi included, so there is nothing to connect, buy or move in. Listings are pre-screened and every landlord is ID-verified.
How is my money protected?
Deposit held securely by EzyFlats until move-in. Rent is processed through Stripe, and the Move-In Guarantee refunds your first week's rent and service fee if the property does not match its listing.
