Needing suggestion for good accommodation at Palm Beach in Sydney
 
Would be grateful if anyone knows of any charming places to stay in Palm Beach just north of Sydney (not the Qld one). haven't found anything on the internet and would appreciate any suggestions please?

Can't give any recommendations as I live too close to need to stay there - but here are a few links which may be useful.

www.wotif.com.au ... Go to Sydney & then to Palm Beach on the "Advanced" tag. There are 3 or 4 listed today.

What about Jonah's in Bynya Rd - I would have called that Whale Beach, but notice its web site has it listed as Palm Beach. Fantastic view.

I would have too Pat, given that it's practically on the point. Fantastic location. Did you check out some of the houses? :)

Thanks so much Pat and Bokhara. I suspected a Jonah must be connected to a whale and yes, you're both right, it is at Whale Beach but at $449 a night think I'll check out wotif. Thanks for your help...

francophile, yes, Jonah's is a bit of an icon on Sydney's northern beaches and has always been exxy.

Sorry, hit button too quickly.

There's never been much available in the way of accommodation on the Peninsula, mostly holiday house rentals which can command very high rentals in summer. To me its the most beautiful part of Sydney, with natural bushland, ocean beaches on one side and the still waters of Pittwater on the other.

I did notice a B&B in a pretty spot when visiting a friend recently, Pelican Point B&B. Its at Stokes Pt which overlooks Careel Bay, not far from Palm Beach and am sure a google search would find it.

Bokhara - if only!
