See a quieter side of Sydney at the serene, stylish Billyard. Tucked into the cove of Elizabeth Bay, this waterfront vacation rental has views over the harbor in Rushcutters Bay from sleek, contemporary rooms. But despite its peaceful feel, it’s only a short drive from attractions such as the Sydney Opera House, Harbour Bridge and the city’s beaches.

Listen to the waves lapping at the docks below from the villa’s private balcony, watching boats ply the harbor as you sip your morning coffee. Guests of Billyard are also welcome to use the community’s shared harbor swimming pool, barbecue and al-fresco dining area, and parking is available for two cars.

Wall-to-wall sliding glass doors connect the balcony to the villa’s open-plan great room, letting you feel the breeze off the water from the chic living and dining areas. The spaces are understated yet stylish, with pieces like an area rug with the texture of marble or leather-covered dining chairs. An equally well-appointed fully equipped kitchen is set behind a bank of mirrored panels in the open-concept space.

The two bedrooms at this luxury residence can accommodate a small family, two couples on holiday together or one couple on a lavish honeymoon. Both have queen beds; one bedroom has an en-suite bathroom with a jetted tub and the other has access to a hall bathroom.

From Billyard, it’s a short drive to must-see attractions like the Royal Botanic Gardens, the Sydney Opera House and the daring heights of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Take a walk around popular Darling Harbour, close to downtown, or drive to Watsons Bay for an oceanfront stroll or dinner. Make time during your stay for a visit to a nearby beach like Bondi or Coogee and see what the locals are like off duty.
