Waterfront vacation rentals in Ettalong Beach

We had an amazing time staying at Lucy's beachfront Airbnb! We spent a month there and loved waking up to the stunning sunrise every morning. The apartment was perfect for our family of four, offering everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Lucy was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns. We would absolutely love to return for another beach getaway!

Very happy with our 2 night stay. Hosts were great to deal with very friendly and helpful. Nice spot, lots of beautiful restaurants to choose from, walk straight onto the beach, good shops to browse. Overall 10/10 for accommodation and surrounds

Janelle was helpful in every aspect. Clear instructions and information at the apartment. It was relaxing. Thank You Janelle

I had a wonderful one night stay at Jonathan’s place. I have to agree with all the positive reviews on the property. It was a very welcoming place, right on the water, and in a fantastic location within walking distance to the main attractions. I would definitely come back!

An amazing view and location. It is well furnished. Sue was very responsive and allowed early check in and late check out during our stay. Would stay there again!

We had an amazing stay at Rina's place! The apartment was clean, cosy, and exactly as described, with everything we needed for a comfortable trip. The location was perfect for exploring The Entrance, and Rina was a wonderful host, so kind, thoughtful, and responsive. Even though we didn’t catch any prawns this time, the experience was unforgettable, and the kids absolutely loved it! We’ll definitely be back and can’t recommend Rina’s place enough. Thank you for a fantastic stay!

Perfect hub for a mid week getaway to nature and the coast. Loved its proximity to the National Parks, hiking paths and coast line. Drivable to favourite coast lines such as Avoca, Pretty Beach, Umina, Copacabana and Ettalong. Clean and safe space that allowed the relaxation of the day to sweep into the nights. Loved this space and its proximity to cafes and entertainment. Totally recommend.

This is the second visit to The Entrance and this property… 5 years apart. It will always be my go-to stay when I visit Central Coast. Peter is friendly and proactive and the apartment is spacious, immaculately clean and real value for money. The rooftop terrace is the highlight for us, magnificent views, loads of different seating areas for eating, relaxing and socialising - with an outstanding hot tub! We would recommend this apartment 100% K&S. UK.

Accomodation was very clean. The house was well equipped for all of our guests. The views and house looked just like the pictures.

We had a great weekend at Monique’s. The place is beautiful, with activities to do and the beach very close to de house. Monique was very friendly and receptive to our requests.

Beautiful property- super tranquil and right on the water. We hired a boat which we docked at the property and did fishing off the jetty. 10/10 would recommend, had the best time ever. Just remember to bring the mozzie spray!

Thank you so much for the beautiful stay. An amazing view of the lake, lots of space for families, clean and felt like home. Would definitely recommend and we will be back!

This lakeside home is the perfect getaway for large family gatherings for all ages! The pool was AMAZING, the pool table was used constantly, the kitchen was well stocked and the 3 main bedrooms has the most incredible views. The beds were all very comfortable, and there were multiple TVs to suit everyone. The bathrooms were spacious and modern. The views were stunning across the lake, especially at sunset. our family of 13 had a very special and memorable stay. Justin's videos were very helpful and his communication was excellent.

The house is in a great position at lake Macquarie with lots of fun to offer. The house and each bedroom were delightfully decorated to add enjoyment to the stay. It’s a wonderful experience we have had. On the down side I would say if beds could be more comfy with better mattress that would be good. Will appreciate if have more floor towels or mop since floor is wet with lots of water activities expected. Shame we have no bbq we could use but we understand the reason. The main couch is a big old and smelly otherwise the home and stay have been perfect.

Beautiful location by the water. The house was nice and big for our family holiday and lots for space for the kids. The baby cot and high chair was especially helpful for my sister's baby which we really appreciated. Rooms were lovely but the highlight was the balcony/deck where we had breakfast. Highly recommend this place for a peaceful family holiday. Thanks for a lovely stay Kate!

David’s house at Woy Woy is an absolute lakeside haven. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the peaceful setting and stunning views. The home is beautifully presented—clean, stylish, and fully equipped with everything you could need. But the real highlight is the backyard that opens right onto the lake, complete with a private jetty. We spent hours fishing, watching the wildlife, and enjoying morning coffees and sunset drinks with a view that’s hard to beat. It’s the perfect spot to unwind and reconnect with nature. The neighborhood is quiet and relaxing, yet still close to shops and cafes. David was a fantastic host—responsive, welcoming, and full of great local tips. Whether you're after a peaceful retreat, or a base to explore the Central Coast, this place ticks every box. We didn’t want to leave and are already planning our return. Highly recommended!

Had a great stay! Loved being right on the beach. Parking was the only pitfall but something out of their control. Great stay and will definitely attempt to stay there again!

The location, the view and the sound of the ocean waves made our stay in this apartment a wonderful experience! We had no trouble communicating with our hosts, who were nice and helpful! We can only recommend the apartment for future guests.

The place was very close to Mona Vale Beach. Not far from the bus to the city or Manly. Close to Mona Vale shops.
