Accommodation in Manly, Australia

We can offer our students a wide range of excellent accommodation options.

Homestay

Homestay is a great way to improve your English and learn about Australian culture. Samantha Milton, who is co-owner of SEA, has personally visited each homestay family to ensure they meet the school’s high standards. She also receives all homestay applications and places each student. As an owner of SEA she wants every SEA student to have the best possible homestay experience.

Our families are carefully selected and regulary monitored. We have very high standards for our homestay accommodation . You will have your own private room with desk, lamp and all bedding. Breakfast and dinner are provided each day and breakfast, lunch and dinner on the weekend. The average time from homestay to school is 20 minutes by public transport.

SEA is in direct contact with all homestay families.

Here are some suggestions of how to make the most of your homestay experience:
Homestay Etiquette
For students who do not want homestay for their entire stay, we recommend that they stay with a family for their first 4 weeks. This gives the student time to adjust to life in Australia while viewing the residential accommodation options.

Residential accommodation is also available. We have an accommodation notice board where locals and students advertise apartments.

Share Accommodation

Many of SEA’s student choose homestay or hostel accomodation first then look for share accommodation. SEA provides a student noticeboard with share accommodation advertisements.
