New Years Eve family getaway

We had a wonderful time staying at Nelson Bay. The apartment was everything you could hope for. It was very spacious, plenty of room for everyone. We love cooking when we all get together and the well appointed kitchen made it easy and enjoyable. The beds were very comfortable as was the lounge! A great view of the water and the New Year's Eve Fireworks as well. I would highly recommend this property to other families.

Great Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: What a great stay. The Penthouse was just lovely. Clean and well equipped. Had everything we needed. It was a great size for 6 people with 2 bathrooms. The only thing I would change, is maybe take out the big mats located in the living and bedroom areas. I feel this could prove to be a tripping hazard, especially for older guests. Work was being done on the rooftop, so we couldn't use the balconies, which was a little disappointing. Restaurants and shopping were located very close by.All in all a wonderful stay.

It was not great

Overall experience was not great! The day we arrived the building lift wasn’t working we had to walk up the stairs to the last level with my elderly mum and baby was horrible experience. The house wasn’t that clean especially the bed sheets wasn’t even washed luckily we had brought our own bed sheets despite that my nephew had bed bugs bites all over his body so not great experience.
