Beachfront Hotel Manly Pacific Has Unveiled Its Luxe $30-Million Revamp with a Rooftop Pool and Lobby Bar
The hotel's extensive renovation has been unveiled with dog-friendly rooms, customisable wellness packages and an all-out luxury suite for those who want to splurge.
Northern Beaches hotel Manly Pacific has unveiled the results of its $30-million transformation. The extensive revamp features next-level wellness suites, a sparkling new facade, a rooftop pool and multiple bars primed for tourists on the hunt for a distinctly Australian beach stay — or Sydneysiders looking to get out of the city for a staycation.
As first announced in 2022, and overseen by local designers Coco Republic, the hotel now boasts 213 revamped rooms, all of which come with a sleek coastal-inspired fitout, a stacked minibar filled with local, independently made products, and access to the hotel's newly upgraded facilities.
On entry to the lobby, you'll discover 55 North, an eclectic adjoined bar consisting of timber veneers and paved marble. This inviting drinking hole offers hotel guests and Northern Beaches residents the opportunity to enjoy a cocktail with an ocean view.
Elsewhere in the hotel sits two dining options — Japanese restaurant Tokyo Joe and French diner Bistro Manly — plus a rooftop pool with its own bar serving up caviar, lobster and champagne, and a range of wellness facilities and packages. Guests can visit the infrared sauna adjacent to the pool and the neighbouring Manly Beach Health Club. Or, if you're looking to head offsite for some leisure, you can book surfing lessons, kayaking, beach yoga and massages through the hotel.
While these standard stays are already overflowing with laidback coastal luxury, the new Manly Pacific also boasts a selection of deluxe rooms that will really take things up a notch. There are nine two-bedroom Coastal Suites equipped with sweeping ocean views, plus a customisable wellness menu featuring a Peloton bike and classes, a yoga mat, Leif skincare, LaGaia face masks and a nightly turn-down service.
The real big-hitter, however, is The Infinity Residence. This all-out luxury one-bedroom suite comes equipped with everything you could ever think of for a beachside stay — and then some. Guests who splurge on The Infinity Residence will be treated to a 177-square-metre room with underfloor heating, a fireplace, a kitchenette, a free-standing bathtub, a 100-square-metre private terrace and a premium mini-bar. The extremely lavish experience also comes with a beach butler who will set up towels, umbrellas and an outdoor dining table for up to eight people on request, and the ability to book a sea plane flight from Rose Bay.
Completing the revamp of the accommodation is the introduction of dog-friendly rooms so that you can book a stay with your four-legged pals, and specific work-from-hotel packages that help facilitate working staycations, including a study table, unlimited coffee, complimentary room-service lunches and a knock-off cocktail at 5pm.
Manly Pacific is located at 55 N Steyne, Manly.
