Fantastic house with great amenities in a truly amazing location. The staff at Port Stephens Accommodation were very friendly & helpful. Plenty of information of the area to keep you entertained.
location was great, beautiful home. It was really dirty though, dust and grime everywhere. A few big nasty cockroaches would roam through the kitchen, no gas in the bbq. No soap in any of the showers. Check in was in town and no simple lock box for check out.
A fantastic location with direct access to the beach and beautiful views across the bayThe house is in reasonable condition, but it probably does need some looking at some of the detail thingsAs you know, your booking process is a bit painful. You say that on your webpage so you know that I know I had to come back and of course if you come back to the webpage having filled in 90% you’ve gotta restart and given that information on everyone staying there that can take a couple of times to get it right well it did for me anyway. we found the odour in the house overwhelming at first due to the number of smell generators odour generators around the property. We had to take all these out as they were attraction to some of the smaller children and obviously you could be not good for them and we found once we returned them more off the there was no odour in the house. It was a lovely fresh air smell from leaving the doors open so not sure why these are even there. They’re not particularly healthy in any case.
