To comercial . Local council likes to jam parking meters everywhere you go so they can milk money out you, this totally discourages stopping anywhere to visit local shops. The boat ramps even had metered parking , people would like to have an unlimited day out in their boat and not be concerned about how much it will cost. Disgusting greed.

What a darling place to visit with friends! If you're looking for a quiet girls weekend/getaway there are multitudes of great restaurants and cafes, lots of homeware shopping and boutiques, and lots of massage and nail salons. So awesome, would go again in a heartbeat.

The whole area is beautiful, with many beautiful beaches, waterways and National Parks. Whether you want to swim, bushwalk, bird watch, get into photography, go boating, dive, explore, whale or dolphin watch, visit nearby islands or just simply relax, Nelson Bay/ Port Stephens Area is awesome. It has Great places to dine, my favourites Sirenas Seaside at d'Albora Marina, The Deck at Soldiers Point and Bubs Seafood also at the marina. My last holiday there, I really needed to relax. I had 9 days of perfect weather, ocean swimming, beach and bush walking everyday. Getting pampered at Sirene Spa Shoal Bay everyday, either with massages or sauna and spa.

Great selection of restaurants, cafes & bars within easy walking distance, particularly enjoyed Mavericks for the food, location overlooking the Marina and friendly staff. Large Woolworths to get all of your food for self-catering. Great local bus service to see the wider area plus ferry to Tea gardens and Dolphin cruises - what is not to like! The staff at the Tourist Information office were very helpful.

Nelson Bay is one of my favourite spots in the Australian coast so far, it is relaxing with beautiful beaches like One Mile Beach and Birubi Beach. There is good night life if you go to Shoal Bay and also good restaurants.

I visit Nelson Bay regularly for the last 26 years.
I visit Nelson Bay regularly for the last 26 years. It has become a very advanced tourist destination where people can find different options for entertainment and relaxation. The Port Stephens area in general, is beautiful and has many attractions, like dolphin and whale watching, game fishing or just recreational fishing from many good spots, sporting and adventure facilities and variety of accommodation for every budget. This time, I was more impressed by how green the area was, due to recent frequent rainfall.
We recently stayed at "Hide Away at Nelson Bay" and had a fantastic time. The house is well-equipped, spacious and clean, and only a short drive from the beach and Tomaree Mountain. The cozy beds made for a comfortable night's sleep and we felt right at home during our stay. The hosts were friendly and although we haven't had the opportunity to interact much, they were always available to provide us with any information we needed and the instruction for the house were very clear and easy. Great place!
Absolutely loved the apartment, perfect size, very family friendly, clean and tidy, had everything we needed in the kitchen and laundry facilities, the kids loved swimming in the pool, close walk to Nelson Bay marina, shops, cafes and Duckies beach which is really kid friendly, relaxed and not too busy. The kids begged us to stay longer! Can’t wait to plan our next visit :) thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful apartment to make memories with our children
This was an excellent townhouse for our family to have a small fun holiday after Christmas. Large spacious open-plan living and dining room. A great outdoor patio with BBQ. Easy walk to little beach. It's a twenty minute walk to Nelson Bay. Easy walk to Wests Diggers. This is a great spot for a holiday far away from the crazy crowds in the center or Nelson Bay.
This place is sensational, very comfortable and cozy. It feels like a totally different world within Port Stephens / Nelson Bay. My wife really enjoyed the treatment in Spa Lucca, staffs are friendly with nice varieties of breakfast choices. Very clean and nicely renovated rooms. An absolute first choice to just chill and relax in.
The room had a perfect view of the ocean, and they were spacious and catered to the size of my family. The swimming pool was awesome, and I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to have a mini vacation in Nelson Bay. I'd like to thank Pam for her welcoming heart and making our stay feel comfortable.
Kids loved the pool and how close everything was - a short stroll to town centre and marina or a short drive to the many lovely beaches of Nelson Bay. The stay was comfortable and had everything we needed for a family with two kids under 7. Recommended!
My friend and I had a lovely time at this property. The house is super organised, clean and cosy. Location is great, just a 13-min to the beach and grocery stores at a walking distance.
The host was super friendly and responsive!
I highly recommend!
the location is fantastic and while the property doesn’t look like much from the outside, it is quite comfortable inside. it is so convenient being able to walk over the road to the beach or into either Nelson Bay or Shoal Bay.
Great location away from the busy areas, walking distance to beach. Quiet peaceful location surrounded by nature. Quick drive to Nelson Bay or Shoal Bay and discovered Boat Harbour and sat and watched the whales and dolphins.
Very comfortable room.Although close to road the room was soundproofed.
Didn't have time to utilise all of the hotels facilities but what we did utilise they where first class.
Staff where very helpful.
The location the size of the room loved that it had a mini kitchen and microwave and close to shops walking distance.I’ve stayed at other hotels in Nelson bay this will be my regular motel .
Perfect location, right in the centre of nelson bay. The pool area is very well. Also, the hotel has a barbeque area around the pool. It is perfect place for evening drinks and dinner
The cleanliness was outstanding! Every gadget you could need was in the property. Location was perfect, halfway between Shoal Bay and Nelson Bay. Also beach access is right there.
Cozy little house. Everything is brand new, clean, comfortable and all that you need for a family holiday. Close to the beach. Friendly and helpful owner, quick respondent.
