Spacious apartment with a magic view. Cant beat the location.My only suggestion would be to have the spa on wooden base. The tiles get very slippery and become a trip hazard. Bring extra towels for the floor if u have kids. (Oh and 2 sets of keys pls) Overall we loved it and would book again.

Fun family apartment

The apartment was a great base for a few days in Port Stephens. Very handy to the beach and amenities at Nelson Bay, without being overly busy. We enjoyed the spa a lot, although were disappointed that it wasn't hot enough the first night (takes about 24 hours to heat up). We also had an issue with the lift access not working, but the travel agency staff were very helpful.

Easy access, great location

Overall we had a great stay there. It was comfortable, had easy access and was close to everything. The only thing I would suggest would be that it needs extra blankets, as the weather was very cold when we arrived, and one light cover on the beds was not enough. There were no tea towels or dishcloths provided - an oversight I believe. Other than that the place was well appointed, the rooftop spa was fun and warm. Great place to stay!

Great location and outdoor space

Apartment was in a great location close to the beach, shops and restaurants. Both balconies were fabulous with comfy furniture, spacious areas and a great hot tub spa. Kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook and enjoy meals. What we didn't like was the floor in the bathrooms, river pebbles set in concrete - very uncomfortable to walk on and difficult to clean indicated by the state of the floor mat after one use. There was also a lack of soap in the bathrooms and kitchen, and very minimal cleaning items in the kitchen (no cloth for wiping benches). Little things that could be improved and make this apartment amazing.

Great location

The apartment is in a great location. Stroll to beach, bars and shops. Shoal Bay is beautiful. The apartment’s rooftop with spa is amazing! Perfect for our girls weekend away. Our only issue was there was no hand soap in the bathroom or toiletries of any kind, and no dishcloth or tea towels in the kitchen. But other than that the place is fantastic, would highly recommend.

Shoal bay is a great location

On the positive, great location, nice apartment with massive balcony areas. Things not so good. We booked this apartment because of the spa and we thought it had a view of the bay. The Spa was not working and the balcony is on the rear of the building. There is a loading zone for all the restaurants and shops below the balcony. It is very noisy particularly early in the morning.
