Resort Village The Retreat Port Stephens
4302 Nelson Bay Rd, Anna Bay, 2316 Anna Bay, Australia – Great location - show map
Quiet spot backed up onto the amazing sand dunes. Clean private cabins were very comfortable. Beds were comfortable. Will be staying again for sure!

location good very close anna bay , house in a park very quiet can have a good sleep, can self cooking and BBQ, very suitable for family holiday .

The staff were very welcoming and helpful. The park was clean and tranquil. The kitchen utensils and crockery were amazing. The best stocked kitchen we have ever stayed at. Even had picnic sets available! We even had our own enclosed backyard for our dog, with a kennel!

Friendly staff and nicely tucked away retreat place. Plenty of shade from trees...sand dunes in walking distance Second visit and happy.

I just thought it was lovely little cabin peaceful had everything you need very comfortable. Supply’s to the cabin such as cutlery and cleaning products was great. Close to walk in the sand dunes which is great for kids and takes 20 minute walk over the sand dunes to the beautiful beach. But can drive to shops , beaches and a pub in five minutes. Really good affordable accommodation.

Setting was gorgeous. We loved sitting on our deck in the morning having our breakky and coffee.

So close to the dunes, makes for a great base to explore this incredible landscape and surrounding beaches. Accom and facilities has everything you need. Close to Nelson Bay and surrounding townships while far enough away you're out of the bustle.

We loved the little self contained cabins. We had a full functioning kitchen with gas cook top as well as a BBQ right next to our front deck. Was great to have everything we needed in the cabin, random things that you don’t think to bring with you (tongs, glad wrap, tea towels, bowls etc) very well equipped cabins. We loved that we had a front deck with seating area and pretty much a back yard where we could take our dogs out. Great value for money as many other similar holiday parks charge double the price. We would stay again.

Thanks for understanding our situation... travelled with our Dog. Staff were very understanding and flexible.

I was looking for a peaceful stay and I found it. 😍

I have been in the Tourism and Hospitality industry now for 20+ years and love to see everyone enjoying their holiday. Port Stephens is a beautiful part of the world and my job is to ensure you have a wonderful stay and assist with your activities while staying in the area.
Locally we have Anna Bay shops where I highly recommend the local bakery, butcher, Thai Resturant, LJ's takeaway and Anna Bay Tavern for a great pub meal. Anna Bay is the gateway to the sand dunes which is a must see and do when in Port Stephens. Birubi Beach is our closest beach and at the surf club there is a beautiful cafe called Crest which offers amazing breakfasts and lunches over looking the 32km stretch of beach and sand dunes
