Really enjoyed our stay in Nelson Bay, the studio was so nice with everything we needed. Debbie was so helpful throughout and provided recommendations for the nicest restaurant. The bed was so comfy! Would definitely recommend staying here close walk to beach and restaurants/shops.

Fantastic location for exploring Port Stephens -- walking distance to eateries and supermarket. Clean room, ample parking lots. We booked the Deluxe King but I'm sure we received the Deluxe Suite, because there was a huge bathtub which we enjoyed using after a long but fun day at the beach :) We had a dolphin watch cruise the next morning, so we could easily walk to the marina without having to worry about parking.

    Nelson Bay is just great.

    Nelson Bay is just great. I dont live too far, in Newcastle, but we always had family trips to the bay for Christmas. And I want my son to have the same experiences I did when I was younger. It is just far away that it really does feel like we are on holidays somewhere alot further away. The shops, the cafes, the resturants, bars, everything is at your door step. Summer time is amazing, the bay has the most beautiful colours, everyone enjoying the sun. It is definitely 10/10

    Nelson Bay is amazing!

    Nelson Bay is amazing! It's THE DESTINATION if you enjoy peace, quiet and nature :) All the surroundings beaches are worth the visit too! I had few good meals over the weekend, but highlights include Essence Cafe and Taj Tandoori Indian. If you are fish and chips kind of person - Aussie fish and chips is the best! Parking in Nelson Bay is expensive, so best to park your car but out of the center for free parking.

    The marina was amazing and the people in the shops and restaurants were friendly and had suggestions for eating out. We found a lovely cafe for lunch and then enjoyed a delicious dinner at Buoys. In the morning, we had breakfast at a gorgeous cafe located in a home wares store. A few purchases were made here. There is paid parking in the main streets for one hour so moving the car was the only issue with spending more time shopping and exploring the town. In warmer weather we would explore the water activities. Worth the trip off the motorway for Nelson Bay when travelling between Brisbane and Sydney.

    Nelson Bay is so peaceful and friendly.

    Nelson Bay is so peaceful and friendly. We were just interested in relaxing for this stay. There is so much to do within a very small distance and Newcastle is less than an hour away. We returned from our stay totally refreshed. The Bowling Club have great meals and drinks.

    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

    A good size room with easy walking to most food outlets and hotels. Ten per cent discount at adjoining restaurant on production of room key, where the food was good. Nelson Bay and surrounds are fantastic locations. We would stay at the Seabreeze again.
